School is in and you may not know this, but everyday when carrying those heavy book bags, you’re placing a lot of weight on your backs, shoulders, necks and arms. Remember, every part of the body is related to another so when you effect one, you effect them all. While there is nothing GIRLFRIENDS can do to convince your teachers or professors to lighten their loads, we can however give you a quick and easy stretch to do before you hit the door.

The Neck
Yes! Yes! Yes!

• Tilt your head slowly back, far enough so you can look up.

• Lift your head back to the center of a moment.

• Tilt your head to the front, far enough to look at your feet.

• Do this 5-10 times (back, center, front).
