For many of us, the idea of “9-5” is either a distant memory or folklore from an earlier time. Today, the workplace has become a round-the-clock commitment. We are hounded with external pressures, overwhelmed with information overload, and asked to deliver more with less, work longer hours, and have less personal time for renewal activities. In a time when no one seems to have enough time, our devices allow us to be in many places at once... at the cost of being unable to inhabit the place where we actually need to be.

Yoga and meditation are powerful methods for reducing stress and allowing us to actively participate in our own health and well-being. At workFlow, we aim to not only talk the talk, but - every day - walk the walk, with our offer of simple & straightforward practices grounded in ancient traditions, now backed by modern-day research, designed to infuse your day with an instant boost of presence, clarity, and energy, "and over time, restore much needed balance.
