Stretch and Surrender: #6: Neck Flexion

Benefits: Releases tension in the neck and shoulders.

METHOD: Sit comfortably on a straight backed chair with feet flat on the floor. Keep shoulders down and relaxed. Keep head upright. Tip your head forward, toward your chest. Don't overstretch or move your head to either side. Hold comfortably for 10-20 seconds. Raise your head to the starting position. Repeat 3 to 5 times.

Tip: This is a stretch that can be easily done at your desk.
