Great back + neck stretch

I’ve been a bit obsessed with my back lately (with all it’s ache-eeness from nursing, lifting, moving, diapering and on and on).

But I’ve found some fabulous relief. Here goes: 

  • lie on your bed 
  • scootch so that your shoulder blades are just hanging off the bed’s edge
  • let the weight of your head dangle and stretch your neck and upper back
  • breathe deeply as you feel your chest open
  • (be sure to keep the small of your back pressed into the bed so you don’t strain it…and be careful not to fall off!)

This is a lovely chest opening stretch. Breathe deeply and melt into your bed. Relax and feel it soothe.
