Yoga Poses For Headaches

6 / 8

by Jenny Sugar 2

Seated Heart Opener

The Grounded Tipover Tuck stretches the back of your neck, so do this counterpose to target the front of your neck and chest. It'll also reduces tension in your back, which is one cause for headaches. Sitting on your heels, place your hands behind your feet about 10 inches or so and arch your head back. This Seated Heart Opener makes your head feel light and open, so stay for five breaths or more if you love it.

I'm at work so I couldn't try poses 2-6 but the first one really helped with my headache and neck pain. So simple and I'm amazed it worked!
