Stress-Free Neck and Shoulders | 60 Minutes
Saturday Apr 22, 2023
Saturday Apr 22, 2023
let's be real. most of us could use some tension relief in our neck, shoulders, and upper back. this practice delivers in two ways:
1. Feel-Good Neck and Shoulder Mobilizers ... a few super-simple stretches you can do anywhere, anytime to relieve the tension of being in one position for too long.
2. Postural Strengthening Exercises ... one of the key ways we can overcome neck tension (and the dreaded "tech neck" posture) is to appropriately strengthen the neck and upper back muscles that hold the head up. these often get "locked long" due to weakness and strengthening work really does solve the problem.
plus, you'll get a full-body flow, restorative postures, and relaxation thrown in free of charge!

in this one, we mess around a bit...but around here we take messing around quite seriously.
the class featured a group of regular students, and we riffed on sun salutations and seated stretches, getting in a good balance of calming, centering flow and out-of-the-ordinary flexibility work.

ok, this one does get a little yoga weird...there's some face and jaw massage incorporated: great for clearing out the sinuses during the spring transition, and letting go of the tension we hold in our expressions.
but there's also plenty of regular flow to get your whole body moving. you'll de-stress, find balance, and feel good.
enjoy!
