✨ Daily Posture Fix: The Chin Tuck ✨
Also known as cervical retraction, this simple exercise can make a big difference in how your neck and upper back feel — especially if you spend a lot of time at a desk or on your phone.
👣 How to do it:
• Sit or stand tall with your shoulders relaxed.
• Gently draw your chin straight back (like you’re making a double chin).
• Hold for 3–5 seconds, then relax.
• Repeat 10 times, a few times per day.
💡 Why it helps:
The chin tuck strengthens your deep neck flexors and helps counteract forward head posture — the common culprit behind neck tension, headaches, and rounded shoulders. Over time, it teaches your body what neutral alignment feels like so good posture becomes effortless.
🌿 Who benefits most:
✅ Anyone who sits at a computer, drives often, or looks down at their phone
✅ People who feel tightness at the base of the skull, upper back, or between the shoulder blades
✅ Those who notice their head creeping forward in photos or mirrors
Try adding it in while you’re waiting at a red light, between emails, or during your morning routine. Little habits like this build strong, pain-free posture. 🙌
