Seated Deep Neck Stretch

1. Starting Position:

   • Sit comfortably on the floor in a cross-legged position (also known as a seated position).

   • Keep your back straight, shoulders relaxed, and hands resting on your knees or thighs.

2. Neck Stretch:

   • Slowly tilt your head to the right, bringing your right ear toward your right shoulder.

   • To deepen the stretch, you can gently place your right hand on the left side of your head and apply slight pressure.

   • Hold this position for 15-30 seconds, breathing deeply and relaxing into the stretch.

3. Return to Center:

   • Slowly bring your head back to the center, keeping your neck relaxed.

4. Repeat on the Other Side:

   • Now tilt your head to the left, bringing your left ear toward your left shoulder.

   • Again, you can use your left hand for gentle pressure on the right side of your head.

   • Hold for 15-30 seconds.

5. Finishing:

   • Gently return to the center.

   • Take a moment to breathe deeply and notice how your neck feels.

   • You can repeat the entire stretch 2-3 times on each side if desired.

Important Tips:

• Avoid any jerking or bouncing movements.

• If you experience pain, ease off the stretch or stop.

• Ensure that your shoulders remain relaxed throughout the stretch.
