✨ TWO WAYS TO RELEASE TENSION IN THE FACE AND JAW ✨
Feeling a bit tight in the face and jaw is so common, and if you’re preparing for a performance or presentation, audition or public speaking role, this is a great way to start to relax and release the muscles of the face and jaw.
1. Opening the mouth nice and wide, we take the top lip over the teeth to feel into the facial muscles and then take our forefingers from the sides of the nose and out towards our ears, with a firm but careful pressure, moving through the cheeks. When we reach the ears, massaging into the jawline and gently opening and closing the mouth slowly to find a little movement in the jaw.
2. Taking the middle fingers to the cheeks and finding the dip in the middle of the cheeks, we slowly open the mouth, dropping the jaw open as much as possible. Holding here, we press firmly into the dip in the cheeks and keep the mouth open for 10 seconds.
Save for later!
Happy Tuesday ✨
