]]> If you’re stressed often or struggle with anxiety, it’s not unlikely you feel the physical effects of that in the form of tight muscles. It’s incredibly common especially to hold tension in one’s neck or shoulders, which can lead to pain and even headaches–which can make you even more stressed. To help break the cycle, here are some stretches to try to release some tension.

Side Tilt

To help with the sides of your neck, stand or sit with your spine straight and your shoulders relaxed. Slowly tilt your head to one side, bringing your ear toward your shoulder. Only go as far as it takes to feel the stretch, and don’t flex your should or raise it. Hold this for 5-10 seconds, then switch sides. If you want a deeper stretch, gentler push your head further down with your opposite hand–but not too hard! It’s good to pair this with…

Seated Clasped Neck Stretch

To help even things out so you’re stretching out the back of your neck as well as the sides, you’ll want to stretch your head forward as well–and this stretch is extra good because sitting will get you a nice stretch throughout your back as well. Sitting with your spine in alignment, clasp your hands behind your neck and gently pull your chin down towards your chest. Breathe deeply several times while you hold the stretch.

Levator Scapulae Stretch

Finally, this stretch will get the spots in between the sides and back of your neck. Turn your head to one side, then use the hand on that side to pull your head down toward your shoulder. Hold that stretch for 30 seconds or several deep breaths.

]]> Neck pain may not seem like a big deal, but it can prevent you from doing some of your favorite exercises because there’s a high risk of injury. It doesn’t mean you should just sit around until the soreness fades away, and doing a couple of easy exercises could help you fight the pain.

Neck Tilt

Side to side or up and down – no matter which variation you choose, tilts are your go-to exercise. They are extremely easy to learn and can do miracles for your neck pain. Just tilt your head down, up or to the side, depending on which version of this exercise you picked. It’s crucial to hold your head in place for 5 seconds, before returning to starting position and repeating the move.

Neck Turn

Neck turns are also one of the easiest exercises on the market, and they’re pretty similar to tilts. Just like the name suggests, they consist of turning your head to one side, keeping your chin at the same level, holding the position and repeating the same thing a couple of times.

Neck Stretch

You’ll do this exercise by pushing your chin forward, stretching your throat and holding the position for five seconds. You’ll repeat the same routine while pushing chin backward, and do the same move a few times more.
