Free Your Neck, and the Rest Will Follow...

SARAH
About this episode

Neck pain is the enemy and knowing is half the battle. The other half is letting go. This is a 30-minute quickie restorative to help you: 1. Mindfully release the neck and shoulders from built-up tension; and 2. Wisen-up to your habitually-held stiffness so you can recognize it when it crops up and choose to release it.

Perfect for the end of the workday or any other long-term hunching session. Grab a block and a strap and let’s go!
