At all ages, fresh and glowing skin is an unmistakable marker of health and beauty.  In this sequence, we will move into poses that stimulate blood flow to the face and neck, aiding circulation.  We begin with Anuloma Viloma breath to equalize the two halves of the brain and calm stress, as stress ages the appearance.  Two rounds of Sun Salutations warm up the back so that we can perform partnered Bridge pose, followed by Plow and Shoulder Stand.

A strong, healthy body cuts across all different cultural ideals of beauty.  For those of us who have a mainly sedentary lifestyle, fat accumulation impedes us looking and and feeling our best.  A vigorous vinyasa flow practice engages the metabolism and Right-Sizes the body.  We begin this sequence with kapalabhati breath, which stimulates digestion and loss of body fat.  Sun Salutations emphasize Warrior I with a back bend.  We proceed into a deeper back bend, Bow, and then Wind-Releasing pose to strengthen and tone the abdomen.  If you have cardiac problems, you should not perform this sequence as it is very stimulating.

This practice is good for people with sore muscles, joint pain, overworked hands / feet.
Soft tissue manipulation is a vital part of maintaining a healthy body – it helps to relax tight muscles and connective tissue, assist in the body’s cleansing processes, and release endorphins to soothe an overactive nervous system. However, issues such as time, affordability and comfort level can prevent us from scheduling a professional massage. This video will demonstrate techniques for massaging the arms, legs, hands and feet, helping to increase blood flow, relax muscular tension and encourage mobility in the connective tissue of the hands and feet. These techniques are especially useful for people with poor circulation to the extremities, those who regularly work with their hands (writing, typing, crafting, etc.) and those who spend long hours on their feet. Please be sure to drink plenty of water following your massage to assist the excretory system. NYV0059D

However, issues such as time, affordability and comfort level can prevent us from scheduling a professional massage. This video will demonstrate techniques for massaging the chest, belly, back and hips, encouraging easier breathing, healthy digestive and excretory organs, and relaxing muscular tension in the middle and lower back and outer hips. These techniques are especially useful for those who experience anxiety-related digestive issues, or who spend much of their day sitting or otherwise physically inactive.

These techniques can also be used at the first sign of an upper respiratory infection, as they help to encourage movement and drainage of the lymphatic fluid.

However, issues such as time, affordability and comfort level can prevent us from scheduling a professional massage. This video will demonstrate techniques that you can use at home to reap the healing benefits of massage, using only oil, a towel, and your own two hands. This head-to-toe self-massage can be performed at any time and as often as you desire, but is especially recommended in the morning before you shower, after a physical training session, or in the evening before bed. Please be sure to drink plenty of water afterwards to assist the excretory system. NYV0059A

As we age, the skin along our jaw and throat begins to sag. We can preserve a youthful jaw line through a regular practice of gentle exercise facilitate by an often-overlooked muscle: the tongue. In the video on Face Yoga for the Neck, we begin with a basic program of stretches for the neck muscles, followed by a series of specific exercises that target the muscles along the floor of your mouth through the controlled use of the lips and tongue. Special attention is given to the potential for over-straining the neck, and the program ends with a restorative practice of self-care suitable for any time you feel strained or tired in your neck.

Your jaw and mouth work all day long, chewing food, swallowing fluids, shaping your voice, and expressing your feelings. When the muscles that do this work are held too tightly or become out of balance, they can lead to headaches, tooth grinding, jaw clicking, and related symptoms of over-work. Fortunately, the same movement principles familiar to us from yoga can be applied to the muscles of the jaw and mouth. This basic program introduces you to a sequence of actions that gently stretch and re-balance the powerful jaw muscles. In addition to alleviating stress, limbering up your jaw and mouth will also tone the cheek muscles, relax mouth “lines” and rejuvenate the appearance of the lower face. NYV0058C

Your eyes are controlled by muscles, just like the rest of your body. The same yoga principles of energization and relaxation through mindful movement are applied here to ease your eye strain. This basic program of Face Yoga for the Eyes is especially good for anyone who spends a significant part of their day staring at a computer screen. This video routine features a series of eye movements, re-focusing exercises, and a restorative practice that allow you to “undress” your eye muscles and see the world through naked eyes. NYV0058B

The same yoga that’s good for your body is equally good for your face — but only if you apply the principles and practices. This introductory video uses emotional expressions to familiarize you with the mask of your face. Emotional expressions can get “stuck” and become a fixed part of your facial mask. This unconscious communication effects the way you’re perceived by others. Face Yoga helps ease the tension in your face muscles that also contributes to wrinkling and the appearance of aging. Starting with full body movements to warm you up and connect you to your emotional body language, Face Yoga continues with an exploration of facial expressions and intentional gestures to soften the mask you wear every day, revealing the naked face that lies underneath.

Some of the parts of our body that we use the most often are also the ones that we tend to neglect the most. That’s right, I’m talking about the hands and feet. In this video, we will learn how to make everyday tasks like typing, writing and even walking feel a little bit more relieving. No previous yoga experience is necessary, and these exercises can be done anywhere, including in your bedroom or at the office, where you may use the hands a lot.
In this video you will learn: Wrist stretches, Gomukhasana (Cow Face Pose), finger pressure massage, foot pressure massage while in cross-legged position or half-lotus pose, Padahastasana (Gorilla Pose). -NYV0090A

Good news – you don’t even have to leave your desk to perform some simple yoga poses that will help relieve stress and fatigue.  Even if you’re pressed for time, you can still enjoy the benefits of a few moments of movement and self-awareness in the middle of your busy day.  All of the asanas in this series can be performed while sitting at your desk.  We begin with relaxing neck rolls to release the tension – both mental and physical – that long hours of sitting creates.  A short self-massage of the temples is a nourishing way center yourself.  Next, we learn to do a seated spinal twist at the desk, bringing the same detoxifying effects of twists in a yoga class to the middle of your work day.  After a calming seated forward bend, we end standing in conscious meditation.

Office Yoga for your whole body integrates the various parts that are featured in the other instructional videos of this series. Specifically, we work on opening the front of the body, releasing tension from the back of the body, and balancing the sides. The bigger actions included in this video require greater attention on your part to remain stable and safe in your chair. In yoga, your mental focus is as much a part of the practice as your physical motions. The movements and mindfulness of this full-body practice can boost your energy level, soothe your nerves, and counterbalance the postural habits that emerge from long-term sitting.

Many of us spend too much time sitting, or standing in postures that keep our lower back tight and in pain — this class offers some corrective yoga exercises to help! Please note: many lower back issues definitely require the attention of a medical professional, please make sure to go slowly and tune in to your own body before attempting these moves. In this class we stretch not only the lower back, but also the muscles of the hips and legs that connect in with the lower back.

Office Yoga for your head and neck directly addresses the chronic tension that creeps into your life as an office worker. Moving your neck through a complete range of motion is a great way to relax — it’s so natural you probably do it already — but the neck’s flexibility is also is vulnerability, which is why guided instruction can be so beneficial, particularly if your neck is already sore or tight. In this sequence, you will also explore key locations in the head where tension is stored: the jaw, tongue and eyes. These practices may seem silly or too small to matter; it is precisely that tension of the mind which this practice can also begin to soften.

Office Yoga for your upper torso works with the chest, shoulders and upper back. In addition to relieving tension and pain in the targeted areas, this practice is a great way to start opening your rib cage for a deeper, fuller, easier breath. You can’t live without your breath, and your posture, particularly your seated posture, could be suffocating you, literally. Signs of inadequate breath include sleepiness, inattention, difficulty staying focused, irritability, even panic. This video will teach you gentle methods for relaxing your shoulders, energizing your chest, and making the space to breathe your best — all from the comfort of your chair.

Office Yoga for your lower torso puts you in touch with your hips, belly and lower back. These are the foundations of any seated posture so you don’t want to ignore this vital region of the body, yet many of us do take this area of the body for granted. The results may sound familiar: low back pain, sore hips, and numbness in the hips. But perhaps even more detrimental are the digestive and eliminative disorders that can arise when we don’t liberate the lower torso: ulcers, incontinence, diarrhea, constipation, hemorrhoids. If that’s not enough to get your hips swinging and your belly churning (in a good way), then you might be compelled by yet another benefit of this practice: improved sensual vitality.

(Level: Basic) Office Yoga for your upper limbs focuses on the hands, wrists, forearms, elbows and arms. Sitting in an office usually results in using our upper limbs in unbalanced ways, holding part of the limb very still and asking another part of the limb to work tirelessly — thing about writing, typing, mousing. Repetitive stresses, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, are one expression of this imbalanced use of the upper limbs. A regular practice of the sequence provided here will help re-balance the upper limbs and can reduce your risk of repetitive stress injuries.

Office Yoga for your lower limbs targets the feet, ankles, shins, knees and thighs. Sitting for long periods of time can be very hard on the circulatory system. Contraction and relaxation of the leg muscles helps to push your blood back up to the heart. In addition to lengthening and strengthening your lower limbs, which tend to get neglected when we sit, this sequence is also good for your heart.

This lesson of Office Yoga is on Sitting Well, and it provides the important foundation for all the other Office Yoga classes in this series. You may have unhappy memories of being told to SIT UP and not slouch. Unfortunately, we weren’t told HOW to accomplish this. This video will teach you a step-by-step approach to Sitting Well. And while the work you do in this lesson may seem simple, you may also be surprised or even frustrated by the difficulty of maintaining good posture. To be clear: this is not a quick fix. Yoga is much more than making shapes, and Sitting Well entails more than just SITTING UP.
