We have noticed in prior episodes that exercises for the pelvis, breathing, heart and lungs improve our head and neck posture and give us a sense of a relaxed jaw. In this episode we look more closely at the muscles of the neck. We begin with an embodiment of where the cranium sits on top of the spine and get a sense of nodding our head moving the occipital condyles and rocking back and forth on the sit bones. We do exercises for our SCM (sternocleidomastoid muscle), Trapezius and Scalenes. Lastly, we look at the movement of the trachea with neck flexion and extension. These exercises in series create an incredible relaxation in the neck and shoulders and an openness across the chest. Enjoy this practice and share your experience and images in the comments!
