The good news is technology is amazing. I edited one of my own yoga videos yesterday on mobile iMovie while riding the bus.
The bad news is that smart phones are destroying our posture. Experts say that for every inch your head is tilted forward looking down at a screen, the pressure on your cervical spine (AKA your neck) doubles. As our phones evolve into mini super-computers, we’re glued to them for hours each day, creating muscle strain, pinched nerves, herniated disks and yucky headaches.
Whether you’re addicted to CandyCrush or you’re a compulsive email checker, constant smart phone usage is pulling your chin forward and taking your head out of alignment with the rest of your spine.
You can fix this (and avoid turkey neck) by doing some of the simple stretches I’ve put together below. You don’t need a yoga mat, yoga clothes or even the willpower to stand up. Do these seated as your desk right now!

This has remained one of my favorites of your videos for years now. It’s SO effective for releasing neck tension in a short amount of time, and really calming and centering too.
Much easier to like the video and comment after this!
First saw this video 6 years ago, still coming back to it, thank you so much 🙏🏾
I need to do this every day considering I have a chronic neck issue that'll only get worse if I don't stretch it!!! Thank you so much, Brett!! You're the first yogi I found on UA-cam and I deeply appreciate your work. I've done a lot of your other yoga routines over the past 6 months. I've become more confident in my body and I know when to practice mindful breathing. I will never forget your channel, honestly. I've gone through a huge transformation in my personal life and your videos were there for me when I had no other answers.
Holy crap! I've been getting back into pulling my mat out this last month and I was just casually going through my yoga playlist today. I got curious and checked the comments, and I completely forgot I commented! 5 years, still on this channel. I've been keeping up with you and your work and it just gets better, but there are some classics I always come back to.
This video was perfect for relieving my chronic neck pain due to scoliosis and TMJD. Thank you!!
Yay, so glad this helped you! Thank you for practicing with me!!
I still watch this video frequently in the end of 2020 and will continue watching in 2021 and onwards! ❤️
yay!! thanks for commenting :) hope to see u on the mat again very soon! xx
I'm 68 and I just did this video. I have a lot of trouble with my neck and back. Thank you for this. I feel so much better after just one time doing it. Will definitely continue this.
This video has been very helpful to my chronic neck pain and I come back to it often. Thank you Brett
My neck feels so much better, thank you!
You are very welcome, thank you for being here 🙏💖
Thank u! I have terrible neck pain and headaches every morning from two old car accidents, rear ended! I hope this helps me. Beautiful set!
You are an amazing instructor. All your videos that Ive tried have been effective in relieving pain and helps with anxiety. Thanks for all you do Brett.
You are very welcome, thank you for being here 🙏💖
Thank you Brett! I've been working away on my computer for days, woke up with a lot of stiffness in my neck. Big difference after this session! And all I had to do was type your name and neck into my search, voilà, exactly what was needed. Thank you!
I'm so glad this was helpful! Practice with me again soon!
The timing of this practice was perfect as I woke up with an incredibly stiff neck today. Thanks so much, Brett!
Hehe perfect timing! You're so welcome :)
loved the eagle arms for neck--really feel it when I press elbows together !!!!!
Wonderful - immediate relief of neck pain! Thank you!
+Brett Larkin, as a constant sitter (programmer) I exercise daily, and releasing the neck tension after work is just a delight. Thank you so much for this one!
This was sooo helpful! My neck and shoulders are always impossibly tight so I'm glad to have some tools in my arsenal for when I'm at my desk all day!
Wow, I feel 100% better with these release movements ‼️. Thank you.
Another great video from yourself, Brett. I keep coming back to it, when my neck and shoulders get tight. Michael in Walsall, England
It is an honor to practice with you, thank you for being here! 💖💖💖
I did this last night and this morning my shoulders and neck are feeling so much more open and loose. Thank you!
Beautiful, unlocked everything, please keep it up!
Thank you for practicing with me!!
This is a “go to” for me. Whenever I’m stressed, have traveled for a long period of time, or just need self care, this sequence does the trick in alleviating at the tight & sore spots.
I have no clue what took me so long to experience this class. I feel amazing & will add these stretches to my practice. Thank you!
You're so welcome!
I've suffered with neck pain and a trapped nerve for awhile now. These exercises were really soothing, loved the stretches, although my knees hurt a little. I just need more practice with kneeling for so long. Many thanks
You're so welcome!
i really like the variation of neck stretches where one arm was placed behind the back. i really felt the stretch and it was awesome. :)
Loved the little massage at the end! Wish it never ended. :) My neck feels a lot better. Thank you!
Hooray! Thanks for the comment!
Honestly I hurt my neck and shoulders earlier in the week and your vids for shoulders and neck have been a life saver done more for the pain and stiffness than deep heat and painkillers combined! Thank you ! ❤️
Yay, so glad this helped you! Thank you for practicing with me!!
Dearest Brett you really changed my life, after a knee replacement surgery when I thought I will not reach the level I was used to.
But it was my lucky day when I found out the way you do yoga and the alternatives you give us to improve our practice.
Thank you a million times. Be blessed. Namaste.🙏🏻
Thank you so much for this amazing comment!! This is why I love what I do! Thank you for practicing with me
I woke up this morning with pretty intense pinching in my neck and stiffness down the left side, barely able to turn my head, and decided to give this session a try. It completely released it and the pain is gone. Wonderful! Thank you so much. 💖
I keep coming back to this video, thank you so much Brett 🙏🏽
Definately helped to release tension in the neck, many thanks.
This is what I needed today, after all that snow removal yesterday. What a great stretching routine. I live all the bright colors and the backdrop. Nameste 🙏
Thanks, Barry! I'm constantly trying to make all my videos prettier so am so glad that you noticed :) there's more outdoor ones coming up!
Totally needed this! Thankyou! Beautiful scenery!
Nice one. I am echoeing Robin Neely. My advise, and I am not a certified Yoag teacher, is do this partially in standing position. Worked for me!
Amazingly effective! Thank you!
This was efficient! My legs fell asleep towards the end, but the neck definitely feels better now. Thank you!🙏🏼☺️
You are very welcome🙏💖
Thank you, Brett! My neck feels much better after this sequence! Highly recommend this practice to people who work in front of computer for hours and hours~
Thank you!!!!

Loved this I will add it to my yoga playlist thank you Brett!
Wow! So thankful for this quick yet powerful stretching routine. I need to do this daily!
You're so welcome!
Spent the entire day in a suit and tie in seminars. This was a perfect way to end my day. I have 2 more days of the same and now 8 feel like I can do it! Nameste 🙏
+Barry Gleissner way to take your practice on the road!!!! the new migraines class I just released is also really easy, gentle, seated and might be good for your trip! ua-cam.com/video/DY7HaM4pg10/v-deo.html
Really great! Eagle made a huge difference for me
I had been having a lot of neck and shoulder pain from work-related strain, and this exercise made me feel SO much better!
Yay, so gald it helped!!
Thank you so much! I have had chronic neck pain for 10 years but it's certainly gotten exacerbated by these devices. I've been following your other videos in the morning and this is now added to my routine. 4 days and I am feeling some gradual relief. Namaste.
Yay, so glad this helped you! Thank you for practicing with me!!
@@BrettLarkinYoga You even have a Myofascia release for TMJ. Ah thank you! Going to incorporate that into my new routine too! 🙏

I absolutely adore this routine. I have chronic neck rigidity/spasms and in my trapezius. It is a bit painful in a therapeutic way but each time it hurts less. Thank you Brett!!!!
What a helpful and short routine. Perfect timing for breaks at work or your "me time" at home while the children nap. Thanks Brett

This helped release neck tension amazingly well! Thank you!
This routine gives amazing results to loosen up my neck and shoulders!! I am a server, and the tension that results from looking down to take orders and carrying trays really wreaks havoc on my upper back, shoulders and neck. Thank you, Brett!!! Namaste.
Awesome! So many of us can benefit from his class. Thank you for practicing with me!!
This was incredibly helpful this morning! Feeling much better already. I love the hands clasped while walking tip, too. That's always been a go-to stretch for me.
Namaste.

I really liked this one Brett. This helped my neck and shoulders sooo much! I also got a little core work out of it too...lol. Felt really amazing. I will be repeating this regularly. Thanks
This is a gooder....ill be much more mindful of my neck now when I'm using my phone, and now I have an antidote for when I get sore at my desk while at work.....the forward fold should be funny!
Thanks Brett.
