1. Do This NOW To Revitalize Your Body
Feeling achy and your body stiff and tired? If you sit a lot, type a lot and your shoulders
and neck probably hurt also if you are stressed out, especially if you are stressed out, then
this blog post is for you.
To get rid of many of these physical pains and stress all you need it 5-10 min. OK, I know I
am asking a lot from you. But do you want to hurt and be tired all the time? If you answered
YES then this article will not help you. If you answered NO then keep reading, I'll go straight
to the point.
Here's what you need to do. I have the pictures for these stretching exercises below but you
may actually want to have a look at a webinar I hosted a few days ago. There I take you
through the exercises and explain in more detail what they do for you.
#9. Triceps - your hand reaches down along your spine, pushing the elbow down gradually
and lightly with the other hand, keep your chin up and shoulders down and levelled,
breathing out when you stretch to release tension. This one also mobilized your shoulders
besides stretching your triceps.
#8. Forearms and fingers - stretch the arm out in front of you and slowly push the fingers
down and towards you, push forward through the top of the hand to stretch the forearm
(again a detail many overlook), breathing out when you stretch to release tension. It's good
to stretch the thumb after that as well.
2. #7. Shoulders - arm goes across the body, straight. The other arm pushes it towards you,
under or above the elbow not on top of it to avoid injury. Keep the arm straight and shoulders
down, breathing out when you stretch.
#6. Chest and shoulders - one of my favourites. Interlock the fingers at the back and slowly
lift up without leaning forward (you can do that as well, but not in this example). Besides
stretching you also mobilise your shoulders. It's an awesome feeling. Keep your arms
straight and shoulders down, breathing out when you stretch.
3. #5. Sides of body - the hand below pulls down the hand above. Instead of bending to
stretch you pull your arm down slowly. It is important here to lean to the side not forwards of
backwards. If you are not sure of the position of your body it is safer to lean forwards slightly
to protect your back. When you come back from such stretches use your abdominal muscles
instead of your lower back. breathing out when you stretch.
#4. Back/front of neck - this is easy to understand, avoid lifting your shoulders and breathe
out on the stretch. When your head goes back you can open your mouth to relax the neck
and get a nicer stretch....and a minty breath even.
4. #3. Sides of neck 1 - here the ear goes to the shoulder rather than lifting the shoulder to the
ear. This is a common mistake as many of us are not mindful of our bodies. Breathe out on
the stretch
#2. Sides of neck 2 - important here is to bring your chin over your shoulders and not your
forehead. The chin leads the way and the forehead follows. Keep the chin down , keep the
shoulders down and breathe out on the stretch.
5. #1. THE MERISOIU OFFICE STRETCH. If you have a look at the webinar, in the comment
box you have the link to the video with this stretch. Believe me....you will forget all the others
when you do this one.
It's fluid, it's going with what your body needs, how it needs it and you are flowing rather than
forcing. It's a wonderful feeling and everyone who tries it feels amazing.
