Desk-ercise with Portland Brown

The positive benefits of yoga are undeniable; relieve tension of the neck, shoulder and lower back caused from sitting at a desk all day, improved posture, increase in productivity levels and the general well-being of employees.

We’ve been encouraging everyone in the office to take a moment to try out some desk-ercise, and you can find them below to try it too!

	Seated Crescent Moon Good for: A deep side stretch Lift your arms overhead and stretch your fingers wides Lead to one side, taking 2-3 deep breaths Repeat on other side for another 2-3 deep breaths
	Chair Pigeon Pose Good for: Balance While seated in your chair, both feet flat on the floor Cross one leg over the other at a 90-degree angle. Maintain equal weight distributed between the sitting bones while sat upright. Hold for 5-10 breaths before switching sides to repeat
	Seated Spinal Twist Good for: Spinal mobility Turn to sit sideways in your chair with both feet flat on the floor Twist your torso toward the left (hold the back of the chair for a spinal twist) Hold for 5-10 breaths, lengthening your spine as you inhale Turn 180 degrees to stretch the other side & repeat.
	Wrist & Finger Stretches Good for: releasing built-up tension in fingers, hands & wrists Circulate wrists inwards & outwards for 5-10 circles Then apply downward pressure on each palm – hold for 5-10 breaths

Portland Brown really went out of their way with making me feel at home. They provided me with sweet welcome packages and valentine notes, and their cleaning was spotless. Communication with the customer service was easy.

When I got sick with a flu, a Portland Brown personnel checked in on and even brought me some food which I couldnt have bought on my own due to my weakness.

Sehr stylisches Apartment. Top Reinigungsservice. Top Transfer.
