Fearless After Fifty, Chapter Six Our fragile necks! Who designed this body where a 10-pound “bowling ball” of a head is balanced on seven tiny cervical bones? Certainly, not us. But nevertheless, here we are in a new age where we spend more time than ever in a forward position looking at technology screens. While this chapter delves into all the major physical challenges that older warriors face in life, our yoga concentrates on the neck. Problems with the neck – including vertigo, fracture and nerve damage from bulging discs – are now prevalent in midlife. In this video, Desiree shows exercises to build strength and the proper placement of the head in her “double-chin face.” Poses include Warrior One, Bridge Pose (Setu Bandhasana), a variation of Bridge called Chatush Padasana, the bow (Dhanurasana) and wheel poses (Urdhva Dhanurasana) and more. This class is mostly a detailed demonstration of postures to practice.

I m gave this five stars because the moves are very good. But I found the instructions to fell "rushed" when she could have slowed down and just made the video a little longer. That was the one of two things I didn t care for regarding this one although I will do it again. I also wanted more clarity on what "don t let your neck break" means. I kind of assumed it meant to keep the line with head and torso?! I did like the poses and stretches though. Used this one with Tech Neck also.
Good class
My neck and shoulders definitely felt this. I like how they do this class, more informative than other classes I ve seen
Wow, very interesting. Probably should be doing this daily. Will re-visit frequently to remind me.
While I liked the lead-in to these poses, they are not my favorite ones. It s good to do the ones I don t like because they are probably the ones I need the most. Lol! My only criticism is that there was a bit too much fast talking.
great
Wonderful! Thank you so much for your attention to detail. P.S. I would gladly volunteer to rub your neck, Desiree.
Great instruction, careful alignment, logical principles for a strong, healthy body, neck and shoulders
Day 6 and Chapter 6 - lots of good advice for protecting and strengthening the neck. However I have given 4 rather than 5 stars today as for me this was a very difficult workshop. Plough and Wheel are not in my repertoire and I did not feel there was sufficient help to get me even part way there. I also find Camel difficult and Desiree recognised this but I m not sure I ll be following the Camel a Day advice! Maybe I need to be doing this particular workshop more often!
