Freeing the Neck and Shoulders

In this Awareness Through Movement® lesson, you’ll explore simple, mindful movements designed to bring greater ease and freedom to the neck, shoulders, and upper back. Through slow, comfortable movements and attention to sensation, you’ll discover how the neck, shoulders, ribs, and spine can work together with less effort. Rather than stretching or forcing, the lesson invites you to notice habitual patterns, explore new possibilities, and allow movement to become more spacious and effortless. This ATM is suitable for anyone interested in improving body awareness, reducing unnecessary muscular effort, and discovering a more comfortable relationship with movement. Come with curiosity, move within your own comfortable range, and let your nervous system do the learning.
