Neck and jawline shaper with hands
Sit upright with relaxed shoulders. Inhale and lift the left arm straight up. Exhale and bend the left elbow. Inhale and grab the left hand with the right hand behind your head.
Push the left arm behind your head and pull your arm at a 45 degree angle. Now bring your right hand behind your back and reach up your right hand to meet the left hand.
Grab your fingers on both hands. Open your chest and push the shoulder blades down. If they don’t touch you can put a towel between your hands, eventually you will clasp the hands.
Inhale and open your chest. Exhale and grimace with your mouth.
Make a “hee” sound 3 times and do two more sets of 10 times each.
You will feel the movement in the neck. Come out of the pose, close your eyes and feel the difference between the right and left side. Repeat this one more time.
Reverse the position of the arm and do the same exercise on the other side. You will feel the movement in your neck with this too.
Get out of the pose and close your eyes and relax. Feel the blood flow under your armpits during and after this exercise.
Tip: Vocalizing tightens the neck muscles more.
Benefits: This narrows the neck area and corrects the posture while reducing / preventing a double chin.
