The Neck Hump: Defined
The neck hump, often called a 'dowager's hump', can affect posture and confidence. It's caused by poor posture, stress, and muscle imbalances. This yoga
plan focuses on correcting these imbalances to get you feeling and looking your best, with some amazing results for those focused on their fitness.
Pose 1: Mountain Pose
Tadasana (Mountain Pose) is your foundation. Stand tall, engaging your core, shoulders relaxed and down, arms by your sides. This pose builds awareness of your posture. Hold it for 30 seconds, focusing on your breath. It will help you stay centered!
Pose 2: Cat-Cow Flow
This dynamic movement stretches the spine and opens the chest. Start on all fours. Inhale, drop your belly, arch your back (cow pose). Exhale, round your spine (cat pose). Repeat this flow for 1 minute, improving flexibility and blood flow. It's a perfect way to loosen up.
Pose 3: Cobra Pose
Bhujangasana (Cobra Pose) strengthens back muscles and opens the chest. Lie on your stomach, hands under your shoulders. Inhale, lift your chest, keeping your elbows close. Hold for 30 seconds. This pose combats the hunch and promotes upright posture.
