The first movements are going to be cervical rotation and cervical sidebending. These neck movements will help warm up and loosen the muscles that hold a lot of stress.


Next will be isometric exercises for the above movements. Isometric exercises do a great job of strengthening muscles as well as relax tight muscles.


Then shoulder circles and shoulder squeezes will help loosen up the neck as well as shoulder muscles.


Finally, some deep breathing techniques using the arms and diaphragmatic breathing are great ways to reduce stress and anxiety.
