Tilt head 45 degrees to one side, then lower chin toward your chest or armpit. Feel a stretch on the opposite side and back of your neck. Hold for 15-30 seconds, breathing deeply. Slowly return to center and repeat on the other side.
Relax your shoulders down and back to prevent tension from creeping into your neck and upper back, which can limit the stretch. Keep the head tilt gentle and controlled, avoiding any sudden or forced movements to protect your neck joints. Focus on steady, deep breathing throughout the stretch to encourage relaxation and maximize the feeling of release in your neck muscles. Avoid jerky motions, as these can strain the neck and surrounding tissues, potentially leading to discomfort or injury. Maintain an upright posture throughout the exercise, engaging your core to support your spine and ensure proper alignment.
