Do you feel tense right now? I get tense sometimes when I’m holding really still, trying to sneak up on that big orange cat that gets in my yard. Grrrrrrr…cats!

You probably just think you get tense in your shoulders and neck but I bet your jaws are clenched when you’re tense, too. A quick way to banish that tense feeling is to pretend your lower jaw is just hanging there at the bottom of your face. Pretend it’s just hanging loose in your chin skin – let all the muscles on the lower part of your head just go slack. Sit there for a minute or two letting your lower jaw just be. See…ease.
