Ease your neck with a slow side tilt

Before the small shift

The moment

Hours at the desk and your shoulders creep up toward your ears without you noticing.

A way in

Try this

  1. Notice your shoulders and let them drop.
  2. Gently tilt your left ear toward your left shoulder and hold for 3 slow breaths.
  3. Come back to centre, then repeat on the right. Stay in a comfortable range.

If you try it

What might shift

A few slow breaths of stretch, and your shoulders come back down.

General wellbeing habit, not medical advice. Stay in a comfortable range and stop if it hurts. This is not a treatment for neck pain.
