Every job has its 'occupational hazards'.
Some executives travel constantly, others are desk-bound.
Most keep long working hours, with family life and leisure playing secondary roles. The physical ailments of executives have origins in the stress of their jobs. A very good method to achieve equanimity and relaxation is to get away from the pressures of work every now and then. A woman's body is more likely to be damaged by stress than a man's because of hormonal differences. Regular practise of yoga brings stress relief, greater concentration and a harmony in mind and body that is so essential for better professional performance.
