Loosen your neck with two desk stretches
Hours of leaning toward a screen push your head forward. Two gentle moves, no standing up.
- Sit tall. Gently draw your head straight back into a double chin, eyes still forward.
- Hold 5 seconds, relax, and repeat 10 times.
- Sit on your right hand and tilt your left ear toward your left shoulder until you feel a stretch.
- Hold 15 to 30 seconds, then swap hands and do the other side.
Tip: Keep it gentle and stop if a move makes you dizzy. Pins and needles or weakness in both arms, or trouble walking, means see a doctor straight away.
Try it now: Do five chin tucks right now, before the next card.
