After completing the neck stretches section from yesterday’s post, add in a variation of this. You have the movement down. Today, let each movement flow from one to the next. So, in fact, you are doing head circles as opposed to head rotations (those are advanced techniques best done with the help of a chiropractor … or a priest depending on what is going on in your life!)
Put it all together:
-
Do your drop shoulder exercise
-
Followed by the shoulder blade pinch
-
Followed by the warmup described yesterday for your neck
Now … add in:
-
Starting with face and eyes forward, chin level
-
Drop chin to chest
-
Now rotate head toward left shoulder,
-
Follow through with your head back as far as you can and looking up
-
Now down to your right shoulder
-
And back to chin on chest
-
Repeat once more.
-
Repeat twice in opposite direction
-
Do another drop shoulder to relax
It doesn’t take more than about one minute longer but it will feel much better and more complete than the one yesterday.
