I'm sure you've heard of it.  Office Yoga.  Exercises (or "Asanas" in Yoga terminology) that you perform at your desk so that you don't turn into a computer hunchback.

&nbsp;

It's such a great idea, isn't it?

&nbsp;

I don't know of anyone who has ever tried it.  Do you?

&nbsp;

I've never tried it, and I've practiced yoga for 11 years!

&nbsp;

After 337 days of computer work during the day and blog posting at night, my back, neck and shoulders asked me to investigate this Office Yoga phenomenon.

&nbsp;

I always find it best to tackle these sorts of things with my guinea pig posse.  Today's <del>victims</del> volunteers:  Hollywood and YoYo.

&nbsp;

My word, what did we do before the Internet?!?!  I Googled "Office Yoga" and boom!  The first entry was a free program equipped with video demonstrations!  You can see it for yourself <a href="http://www.soundtells.com/YogaOffice/Online/index.htm" target="_blank"><strong>here.</strong></a>

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Here's what I expected:  I would goof of with my friends during our afternoon coffee break and have a good laugh.

&nbsp;

Here's what I didn't expect:  This is revolutionary!  Hollywood and I felt a tremendous release of muscle attention.

&nbsp;

Verdict:  Try this at work!

&nbsp;

Namaste.
