Yoga for the Desk Jockey Book, now with Audio CD!
Do you want to reduce your computer related stress, to relieve your pain and strain?....
But you are not sure what to do, or how to do it….
There is a way – a down to earth, easy to apply, no hype way to being pain free, to being calm amidst chaos, and to experiencing less stress.
If you are like most people who make a living by using a computer, you spend at a good length of time each day sitting, typing and mousing.
And you can feel it – after a few hours, so stealthily, the tension creeps in. One moment you didn’t notice it and then, the next, there it is – right in the familiar spots – neck, shoulders, between the shoulder blades. Maybe for you it creeps into the lower back.
Sometimes it is just in one spot, other times it feels like an elephant is sitting on you.
So you roll your shoulders, move your body – one shoulder forward, the other back, sort of twisting as you try to ease out the cramps, the tension. You can feel your face crunching up as you try to weasel out the stress. You lean your head to one side to stretch your neck.
And you feel some relief in the moment– and then a few hours later, in it creeps again.
Perhaps you visit a massage therapist, a chiropractor, or physiotherapist outside of work– but it doesn’t always feel that the problem is totally fixed. You go to work, and after a few hours the pain and tension is there.
So what do you do?
I created Yoga for the Desk Jockey™ to answer this question.
Yoga for the Desk Jockey™ is a simple, down to earth approach to releasing tension, reducing stress and building relaxation and resilience in today’s 24/7 “Hurry Up” world.
It combines principles of yoga with principles of ergonomics so that you can:
• relieve shoulder, neck and back pain
• reduce eye strain
• ease the stress associated with a day at work
• feel calmer, more clear – even amidst the chaos

Why Yoga for the Desk Jockey?
There are many great professionals who provide amazing body work – massage, chiropractic, physiotherapy, thai massage, shiatsu, acupuncture, reflexology, among others outside of the working environment – but unfortunately, there is very little offered for when you are at work, while you are at your desk, when the tension creeps in – right then and there.
What makes Yoga for the Desk Jockey worthwhile for you?
Five things:
1. Easy to do at the office. Yoga for the Desk Jockey is easy to do at the office. You don’t have to change out of your businesswear, and each exercise can last for as little as 2 minutes.
2. It works. Yoga for the Desk Jockey was created out of a need for my yoga students to be able to do their yoga at work. They told me which techniques provided relief and which didn’t. This book has the exercises and strategies that have stood the test of time over the past decade.
3. You don’t have to be a yogi, or be flexible to do it. In fact, those who are tight, stiff, and in pain will receive much benefit from the yoga, meditation and breathing techniques described in this book.
4. You can reduce your pain without drugs. These exercises have helped others push their anti-inlammatory medication aside. Others have found that they don’t need their nightly alcoholic drink to wind down.
5. An Audio CD is included. If you prefer to listen, I have recorded the full book of exercises and techniques. The Audio CD is included with your book.
Who is it for?
Anyone who is a computer user:
- CEOs, management, middle management, support staff.
- Sales professionals who travel with their laptops.
- Chiropractors and body workers who work with people with computer related pain
- Human resources and Health and Safety professionals who help employees be well at work
Does it work?
This is what Merri has to say:
The consistent thing I have been doing is the exercise where you envision that you are sitting on your hands. I do this while sitting on the train to work and sometimes (when I think of it) at my desk. It has really diminished my lower back pain and also, as a little bonus, I feel it has helped my tummy muscles – Merri Zickefoose
