Begin the journey toward an open heart open shoulders with a targeted sequence that addresses the physical strain of modern daily habits. When we spend hours hunched over screens, desks, or steering wheels, our bodies naturally collapse inward, locking tension into the upper body. This physical closing off not only restricts our breathing but can also impact our emotional state, leaving us feeling guarded, fatigued, or disconnected from our center. By dedicating just a few minutes to conscious movement, we can begin to reverse these patterns.
