Yoga to help tech neck and rounded shoulders

Too much time spent on our computers, phones or laptop can result in poor posture. Commonly termed as ‘tech neck’, the chin juts forward so that the weight of the head is no longer supported by the spinal column. The chest also collapses, which brings weight onto the organs in the belly. ‘Tech neck’ therefore doesn’t just cause tension and pain in our neck, it has an impact on everything below this area, even our hips and knees.

Thanks for talking about the hyoid bone, possibly one of the most overlooked bones in the body. When I received my first certification and we were studying anatomy, our teacher told us that without the hyoid bone we would not be able to stand upright or walk. A really interesting bone that deserves study. Thanks, Esther.

[@Ekhartyoga]

I've been having neck stiffness and upper back stiffness for 2 years.
I tried a lot of neck exercises like chin tucks and it variations.
My neck starts pain when I doing chin tucks.
But your exercises was awesome!
I feel pain-free after 2 years!
Thank you.

Thanks Esther. Could you please do a relaxation session for a hyperactive pelvic floor? (Do you think there could be a link between an overactive pelvic floor and tight hips?) Love your videos, thanks

How do you straighten your neck using the hyoid bone? I can’t tell if I’m doing it right. I would hate to stress out any extra muscles in my neck. Thank you Esther!
