Transcript

Hi friends, We'll begin in a cross-leg position. Take a couple of shoulder rolls to begin, Drawing the shoulders up to the ears, Sending them down and away. And then find some gentle half circles with the neck, Taking the ear to one side. Sweeping back through the middle to take it to the other side. So just allowing the head to be heavy as you rock it side to side. Then bring the right ear to the right shoulder. Allowing the right hand to come to the top of the head and gently draw it closer to the shoulder. Option to extend the left fingertips out to the side. And breathe. Gently release, Taking the left ear to the left shoulder. Again the left hand can rest gently on top of the head. Walking the right fingertips out to the side. And breathe. Gently release, Lifting the head back to center. Inhale, Both hands overhead, Bend through the left elbow, Bring the right hand to the elbow. And gently stretch through the shoulder. Gently release, Take it to the other side, Bend through the right elbow, Grab hold of the elbow with the left hand. And gently release. Thank you so much for joining me. I'll see you in the next one.
