Yoga for Tension Relief in Neck and Shoulders

Feeling a bit tense? This yoga routine for stiff neck and shoulders will help you relax! Tension in these areas can arise from stress, injuries, poor posture, how you sleep, and many other factors. A significant contributor is our tendency to spend long hours hunched over computers. According to Yoga International, neck and upper back pain often results from rounded shoulders and hunching, which strains the surrounding muscles and weakens them over time. This tension can build up gradually, often without us realizing it.

This yoga practice will help you relieve tension, improve your posture, reduce stress, control your breathing, and fully relax. I’d like to introduce my favorite yoga instructor and personal friend, Kris Moon. Kris is a yoga and mindfulness teacher who discovered her passion while studying ancient yoga techniques in India. You can learn more about Kris and her practice on her website, practicewithkris.com, where she offers various yoga and meditation resources, including videos on her YouTube Channel.

In her own words, “Through ancient systems like Yoga and the contemplative practice of Mindfulness Meditation, I offer you simple tools to better navigate the path of whole-hearted living.” Remember to breathe deeply and slowly, and pay attention to your body during this practice. This will help you understand your body better and identify which yoga poses work best for you.
