YouTube: Yoga for Tension Relief: Upper Back, Hips, Neck & Shoulders + Downward Dog Tutorial

💗 Release the Tension 💗

And learn more about Downward Facing Dog

You know those days when it feels like your entire body is tense?

Your shoulders are somewhere up around your ears, your upper back feels tight, your neck is cranky, your hips feel stiff, and somehow your lower back has decided to join the party.

Yep. That kind of day.

And honestly, it doesn’t always take some huge workout or dramatic intervention to feel better. Sometimes your body just needs some movement.

I put this yoga flow together to work into some of those places where we tend to hold tension — upper back, neck, shoulders, hips, and back. There’s plenty of movement, some stretching, and a little bit of time to simply breathe and notice what your body is doing.

I also included a quick Downward Facing Dog tutorial because, let’s be honest, Downward Dog can feel very different when you actually understand what your shoulders, hands, and spine are supposed to be doing.

And no, the goal isn’t to force yourself deeper into anything.

We’re not trying to win the Olympic gold medal in yoga. 😂

We’re just giving your body some attention.

If you’ve been sitting at a desk, driving, traveling, working on your phone, sleeping funny, lifting weights, or simply existing as a human being with a life to live, tension happens.

Movement can help.

So grab your mat, give yourself a little time, and work through the places that feel tight and tired.

You might be surprised by how much better you feel when you stop asking your body to simply tolerate the tension and actually give it a chance to move.

Your body doesn’t need perfection.

It probably just needs a little movement, a little breath, and some attention.
