This stretching routine is done before heading out for a drive. When I am stuck in traffic I put the music on an extra volume and just start dancing to it just to let time pass me by. In that way, I feel less agitated and it’s the most fun thing to do while waiting aside from eating. A snack in the car isn’t so bad too while grooving to your kind of music too. Also soreness felt after several hours from exercising is a good sign. It means your muscle is undergoing changes of progress.

These are great exercise tips Sarah. Accumulated tension in the neck and shoulder muscles is extremely common, a good exercise can relieve the aching and stiffness that we feel sometimes. I can also used this techniques while sitting in a long hours at work, we know that sitting around has never been healthy. Traffic can also trigger my emotional stress most of the time causing some muscle tension on my shoulders. One way to manage it also is through relaxation techniques, by performing abdominal breathing.
