Movement · Evening Wind-Down
Neck & Shoulder Release
Warm-Up · Move 1 of 9 · ~30 sec each side
Why this one
The neck and upper traps carry the weight of the day’s stress. Releasing them last lets the shoulders finally drop, telling the whole body the day is done.
How to do it
Sit tall, shoulders dropped. Tilt your right ear toward your right shoulder without lifting the shoulder. For more, reach your left hand toward the floor. Hold, then switch.
Keep in mind
Let the weight of your head do the work.
Every move: lightly lift your pelvic floor — a gentle lift, never a clench — and breathe slow and full (hold the stretches for about 5 easy breaths, at least 30 seconds). New to the lift? →
