If work has been consuming all your time and energy, yoga expert Shameem Akhtar's book, Yoga in the Workplace, might just be the quick fix you've been waiting for.

Shameem guarantees that squeezing in just five minutes of yoga everyday, will result in manifold benefits.

Details on how each asana works and its benefits are listed alongside. The book carries easy-to-follow illustrations on each asana, and also the health implications of following a sedentary lifestyle.

A helpful index towards the end of the book provides an insight into warm-up exercises, including shoulder shrugs, hand and wrist rotations and finger stretches.
