Your Daily Desk Stretch Break

Sitting for too long can make your neck, shoulders, and back feel stiff. Let's loosen up with a few simple moves. Sit tall, keep your feet flat, and let your shoulders relax. Find a comfortable position. Lift your shoulders gently, roll them back, and let them drop. Keep it slow. Cross your arms over your chest. Gently lift your chest and keep your neck relaxed. Open your chest a little more then return to an upright position. Never force the stretch. Stand up carefully and step one foot back. Make sure you have enough space to stretch. Bend your front knees slightly and move your hips forward. Keep your back straight and stretch gently. Slowly switch sides and repeat the stretch. Stay balanced and avoid pushing too far. Gently draw your shoulders back. Then relax them. Keep your neck loose and comfortable. Relax your arms. Roll your shoulders back and take a slow, easy breath. Short movement breaks during your workday. Your body will thank you for it.
