We are the ones who create who we will become. We do that every day by our daily beliefs and self-talk. It’s really important that we talk to ourselves and motivate ourselves.
Agreed!
HANDS DOWN still THE Z BEST stretch video for traps and neck!! The only video that helped me get rid of chronic neck/trap/shoulder pain! 🙏 Thank you so much for sharing!
I'm so very happy to hear this!! 🙌 🙌 🙌 Thank you for practicing with me!
Love this! Just sent this video to my nephew and nieces who are away at college ❤
Love that! Thank you for sharing! #sharingiscaring
Thank you. My neck and traps are painful enough to wake me up at night so these are part of my morning routine.
Great! Are you finding that you're waking up with less pain?
Thank you for this video! I have been going to PT but this quick video did much more for my neck and back and shoulder pain then anything else I have done!
Wow Pam I'm so happy to hear this and glad you found it helpful!
Thank you Kendra for sharing this sequence with us!! I’ve been dealing with beck and shoulder pain over the last 6-7 months and it has helped me loosen up many times! Just wanted you to know your work and RUclips videos are appreciated!
You're so very welcome and I'm happy to hear how helpful you've found this to be!
This was wonderful! My trapezius muscles relaxed significantly, and this is what I was hoping for. Yay!!
Oh I'm so thrilled to hear this!! 🙌
Love love your videos. So detailed and powerful.
Thank you so much! I appreciate this feedback greatly!
That was excellent!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it Sara!
AWESOME!!! just love your cat. just wanna hold him. sometimes i have to pause you and the picture of you2 make me smile. thank you kendra. i deal with a lot of connective tissue issues and your videos have been helping so much.
I'm so happy to hear that! And thank you, Dusty the cat is quite sweet!
This was really helpful! Thanks Kendra! :D
Glad it was helpful!
That was great. I can feel the stretch and release. If you have a video for gentle hip and leg work (probably sciatica from sitting too much), I would appreciate it! Thanks
So glad you enjoyed this Pamela. I'll add your suggestion to my list! Thank you!
I had to smile when during the video at some point you said, you might even notice your headache is gone - will it sure did help. Thanks!
Amazing! I love that result!
Wow just wow I feel amazing after that I work at an office and my neck was killing me from being at a computer all day this really hit the spot am just so relieved thank you!
You're so very welcome! Glad you enjoyed it and found it helpful!
That was awesome. Becoming old is tough. This made it easier.

Aww love the kitties. You're so welcome, glad you enjoyed it!
Helpful session! Love the music choice.
So thrilled you enjoyed it!
Thanks so much! I appreciated that you got straight to it with no nonsense. I've been having shooting pain from my trapezius up into my temple and I felt like these stretches took so much pressure off. Will continue to revisit this video. Also, your kitty is lovely :)
This makes me so happy to hear Michelle. Any pain relief I can help achieve is a success in my book. Thank you re: the cat! He is quite sweet.
Fantastic routine, thank you 🙏

Super helpful, thank you
You're so welcome! Very glad you found it helpful!
Helpful vid thank you so much
You're so welcome!
Neck pain can be such a...pain. What gives you the most relief? I'd love to hear from you! Also, don't forget to ⭐⭐SUBSCRIBE⭐⭐ to my channel!
Using the resistance band behind the head/back helped graciously!! As well as alternating sides, tilting your chin down😮💨 definitely gave me unexpected relief after the 10 mins! Will be returning to this video tmr morning😂 thank you!
Unfortunately i don't have a cat. Can i replace it with a dog or a toy? 😅
Thank you so much, you're amazing. I was in so much pain. This helped 😭😭😭❤️
I'm so glad it helped!
This is the best, I am so relieved to have found this video! Thank you so much.
You're so welcome! Very happy you found it helpful!
Thank you!
You're so welcome!
Thanks Kendra. Ive been suffering trapezius pain for a few months now and this video which I've been follow daily has really helpled me. I do notice when i do the shouler rotations i get a slight clicking noise on my left shoulder. Can you give any generic advice on that?
So happy this has been helpful! In general shoulder clicking can be due to arm bone placement in the shoulder socket. You might consider turning your palms up or down as you're doing the exercise and see if that alleviates the clicking (this will internally or externally rotate your shoulder and potentially move the arm bone that could be clicking out of the way). Let me know how it works for you!
Pulled a muscle in my neck 3 days ago. I found your video and it has helped with gentle healing each day. Thank you ❤
Yesssss! I love to hear it and you're so welcome. Glad you found it helpful!
Great practice 🙏🏻🙏🏻
So glad you enjoyed it!
This was a wonderful stretch for my neck. 😇
I'm so glad you enjoyed it and it felt good!
I look for this video when I come home with pain in my neck and shoulders. Helps every time.
Amazing! I'm so happy to hear it!!
i feel better!
I'm so glad to hear this!
This was amazing, how often would you advise to do this? Thank you for the great video ❤
You're so welcome! You can do these daily, or at least 3-4 times a week.
I love this video. Thank you so much!. I watch and do these exercises several times a week. It makes a huge difference. Not only relieving pain, but preventing it all together. Thanks again :)
I'm so thrilled to hear it Jessica! That's my goal, to help you relieve AND prevent pain. You're so welcome!
This felt sooo great!! will be doing it after every 2-3 hrs now
Fantastic! Let me know how it goes!
Thank you very much Kendra for this video. I tried it this morning when I woke up and it really relieved by neck pain and upper traps which I usually have upon waking up. Thank you also for your other videos. God bless you.
You're so welcome Carmelita! I'm so happy you enjoyed it and the other videos too. Be well!
Hi how often would you suggest doing these exercises and thank you for the video.
You're so welcome! Every day would be great, but if you only can get in a few times a week, 3-4x / week would be ideal.
Hey I just want you to know how much I appreciate for my own personal practice as a yoga instructor and I do hair as well so my traps at 43 are really letting me know how much they are getting taxed and out of balance. This is my new go to for relief🙏🙏🙏
I'm so happy to hear this Stephanie!! So glad you found relief!!
That was amazing. Thank you so much, Kendra. ✨
So glad you enjoyed it!
@@KendraFitzgerald forgot to mention that your perfectly precious little kitty makes the video even better! 😻♥️ give her a kiss from me 💋
@@philipharville He's quite the precocious kitty! Glad you enjoy his appearances. I can't keep him off the screen!
Excellent video! I actually did most of the moves in the hot tub. OMG I feel amazing thank you!!! 💜
You're so welcome! That's a fantastic addition to do it in the hot tub. I bet the heat feels amazing!
Awww kitty 🐈🐈😘😘
Haha he always makes an appearance!
My wife saw me doing this routine in the living room and when you said you respond to all questions, she said she wants to know the kitty’s name 😅
Thanks again for this video! Very helpful!!
Love it!! His name is Dusty! He has thumbs :) So happy to hear the video is helpful!
Nice exercises. and lovely cat!
But no ball was needed after all, then ;)
Ha yes that's true! I didn't edit that direction out. :) Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much. The exercise is very useful. How many minutes do you suggest we do each day?
You're very welcome! I'm glad you found it helpful. You can do this as many times a day as you'd like, probably around 2-3 times. When you feel tension creeping into your neck, turn on the video and give it whirl!
I am having pain in my bicep area on one of my arms do you have any yoga stretches that would release the tension in that area
So glad you asked. Without seeing your body move I can't give specific suggestions, but I generally love to help the arm bone move back in the shoulder socket (bow pose holding the feet with the thumbs up - palms facing out, and forward fold with the hands clasped and arms overhead are two great ones). You've given me a good idea for a new video - will add this to the list!
Kendra, this has helped me immensely!! Thanks so much for your videos. One question: what do we need the ball for? :)
Hi Monica! You know what, it's so funny - I had an exercise with a ball in it and ended up cutting it out but didn't cut out the ball instruction! Thanks for the great catch!! If you want to use a ball for some next / full body release, you can use it in this workout: ruclips.net/video/L4U0ti90ZME/видео.html :)
Also I'm so glad it was helpful!!
@@KendraFitzgerald Thanks! I will for sure check it out.
my favorite stretches start at 4:06
So glad to hear it!
Namastê 🙏🏻✨
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hey there, I have been having consistent and I would say somewhat severe tightness in my traps which naturally affects my neck. This video is very helpful. So thank you so much for posting it. Any other suggestions concerning tight traps? I have foraminal stenosis and arthritis and everything else. Perhaps a bit premature for my age. Thanks again
I'm so thrilled to hear the video has been helpful. Typically we see tightness with weak muscles as well. Strengthening your traps can do wonders for releasing tight muscles too (counter-intuitive I know!)
@@KendraFitzgerald thank you, I used to lift weights, as I am getting older I thought perhaps it was doing more damage but I think in the long run it makes sense that they should be strengthened. That's a helpful suggestion. Thanks again, keep the videos coming please...
Yes! Keep lifting those weights - it's been scientifically proven that weight lifting can increase longevity by 40%, and muscle strength is key for staying strong as we age. (from a NY Times article recently!)
how often can you do these daily
Yes daily is great!
If a session didn’t make that better, what would I do? Do it for another session? Or do it the next day?
Yes! Try doing it again for several days in a row and see how you feel. Then let me know!
Should i per a cat too to continue the exercise?Just wondering 😂
Ha! He helps with compliance! LOL
🐈⬛ 🥰
😄 He's in almost every video! 😂 Glad you enjoyed seeing him!
Most of the time I get pain in my left side of the neck and shoulder trap area. The pain goes to my left side of the head too. The issue is why do I always have pain in the left side? I have an upper right hip(almost 1/2 to 1 inch).
So interesting! It's common to have cross-body connections and tightness. Perhaps look into the tightness in your right hip / right lower back and the compensation that could be happening in your left side. It's an exploration worth digging into!
So happy to have discovered this video! I’ve done deep tissue massage, shockwave, cupping, topical pain treatments… and I’m so tired of hurting! I just tried this today and really enjoyed and I am going to keep at it daily ❤.
I'm so happy you found this helpful!
