Tuck chin<br \/>\n2. Love down<br \/>\n3. Right ear toward right shoulder. Keep that chin tucked!<br \/>\n4a. Rotate head down (to look at your shoulder).<br \/>\n5. You can increase the stretch by using your right hand to apply very gentle pressure to your head, or reach your left arm toward the floor.<br \/>\n6. Repeat on the other side.<\/p>\n<p>Stretch B<br \/>\nRepeat all of the above except:<br \/>\n4b. Rotate head up to look at the ceiling. Again, remember to keep your chin tucked.<\/p>\n<p>If you get a stiff neck frequently, do a few sets of chin tucks during the day. You can do this by lying down on your back and tucking your chin-your pillow will provide resistance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Jose O.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">During meditation, I\u2019m relaxing my body. Paying attention to whatever is stiff, If my neck is stiff, I gently make massaging circling movements. Bending the head forward gently, Then make a rotating movement clock wise, from front to right side, to back, to left and front again. Just a gently movement, You\u2019ll feel the muscles that are stiff by doing this, repeatedly rotate your head and notify the uncomfortable feeling at that spot. Gently repeat the process until your neck feels more relaxed and the stiffness becomes softer. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stephanie C. The dreaded kinked neck.
