Requirements

Arm and head rotation and Head and arm stretch are two standing exercises for the upper body. They need some level of coordination and flexibility.

Outcome physical

These two activities release tension in the neck and chest area. They are helpful, and you will feel the relief of unease and tension quickly after a few times of doing the exercises.

Outcome spiritual

These two exercises clear up your mental body on a spiritual level by focusing on posture and tension relief. The mental body is part of your aura, where you generate your thoughts. If you release tension in the body, you can think more clearly because the focus is away from the physical unease. They are also part of the number one throat chakra exercises.
