Yoga Exercise - Neck Exercises



Many people hold tension in their necks and shoulders, leading to stiffness, bad posture and tension headaches. Repeating these five yoga Neck Exercises eases tension, increases flexibility and tones the muscles. Do them slowly and keep your spine straight. Your neck relaxed and your shoulders facing forward. First drop your head back, then drop it right forward. Now keeping your head erect, turn it all the way to the right, back to center, then all the way to the left. Next drop your head forward and roll it around as wide a circle as possible. Repeat in the opposite direction. Now, raise your right shoulder, then drop it down. Repeat with the left. Lastly, raise both shoulders at once, then drop them down again.

  1. Bend your head forward, chin on chest, then back to original position.
  2. Bend to the right, then back to the original position.
  3. Bend backward, then back to the original position.
  4. Bend to the left, then back to the original position.
  5. Bend forward, chin on chest, move from right to the left, then move from left to right.
