Quick Hands-On Stress Relief

Got a minute on your next break?

These moves can help relieve tension around your head, neck, shoulders and hands:

The scalp soother: Place thumbs behind your ears and spread your fingers on top of your head. Move your scalp back and forth slightly by making circles wit your fingertips for 15-20 seconds then gently release. Repeat 2-3 times

The eye easer: Close your eyes and lace your ring fingers directly under your eyebrows, near the bridge of your nose. Slowly increase pressure for five seconds, then gently release. Repeat 2-3 times

The shoulder saver: Place your left hand on the right side of your neck by your shoulder. Press fingers firmly into the muscle while tucking your chine in toward your chest. Hold this position for 10 seconds, release, and then repeat on the left side.

The palm pleaser: Lace your fingers together, leaving thumbs free. Slowly knead your left thumb into the palm of your right hand for 20-30 seconds. Then repeat on your left hand.

 

I hope you enjoy your next break.
