Steps: For the Warrior I pose, start in a standing position with your spine upright and arms by your side. Upon exhalation, spread your feet 3-4 inches apart and raise the arms to shoulder-height and perpendicular to the ground.

Align the heels and rotate the torso to the right. With your left heel firmly into the floor, exhale, take a bend at the right knee directly over the right ankle so that the shin is perpendicular to the floor. Gaze forward and take 6-7 deep breaths in the pose.

Lift the right foot up, bend the knee and clasp the right ankle with your right hand. Draw your right foot up and locate it against the inner left thigh. Try to press the right heel into left groin for profound health benefits.

The fingers of the right foot should point towards the floor. Lengthen your tailbone and look ahead. For the hand movements, either raise them up, palms facing in front or join the hands together in Anjali Mudra.

Steps: Kneel on a yoga mat with knees-hip width apart and spine in an erect stance. Compress the shins and top of the feet into a yoga mat. During the practice of the pose, do not squeeze the hips.

Lean back with your chin tucked to your chest. Deepen the pose by extending your arms behind and grasping the heels. Keep the spine long and thighs perpendicular to the ground. Let your hand tilt back naturally without causing a strain to the neck. To release, bring the hands to your hips and push your hips down to the floor.

4. Child Pose (Balasana)

In the pose, get in touch with the mother earth and experience a sense of grounding and ease.

Breathe out, bend forward maintaining the length of the spine and draping your torso between the thighs, gently bring your forehead to the ground and rest it there. Extend the arms forward or behind with palms up. Draw your gaze inwards and close your eyes. Relax and melt away your tensions.

As an employer, you have to take extra measures for protecting employees against sexual harassment at work. Being proactive is still the best approach rather than being lenient and then regretting it later on after finding out putting the right person accountable is indeed a long, impossible, and arduous process....

Steps: Begin in the Staff Pose (Dandasana). Fold your knees and place the feet on a yoga mat. Slide the left foot underneath the right one and place the left foot to the outside of the right hip. The outside of the left leg should rest on the mat.

Bend the right knee and point it towards the ceiling, step the right foot over the left leg and make it stand tall on the ground outside to the left hip. Firmly press the right hand into the floor behind the right hip and rest the left hand on the right thigh. Twist towards the inner right thigh.
