Lie back on a stack of pillows with your head supported by one or two pillows

The lower edge of the pillow should support the butt, again depending on the size, to support the lower back then lower the chin to elongate the neck muscles. Breathe in and out deeply while in this pose.

6. Ghomukasana arms

This pose comes in handy, in the movement of shoulders, to correct the forward head position and rounded back. You might also want to arm yourself with a belt for this yoga! Set your feet in a parallel position and extend the sides of the torso up, while pressing down through the sitting bones.
