The Neck of It

Pain in acute myocardial infarction (rear)Image via Wikipedia
I am at my desk listening to some tunes. One those random Genius affairs. The sky is peeking at me through my window and the besides my own noise the world seems quiet.This day is nipping on the heels of perfection(if that is even possible).

If I could bother to foster a complaint(and I guess I will)- I am having some very acute neck pain.

I am not quite sure how my neck got twisted(so to speak). I have been doing a fair amount of yoga lately. Recently, I had a bunch of tension in my shoulders and have been doing some poses to help relieve that tension. With in those sequences, there are certain poses that are out of reach for me because my neck is not super limber.

That said, I never press the issue and accept modifications without complaint. So, I am a little surprised that I have such acute pain in my neck and shoulder today. Is it from stretching those muscles or is it because I stressed them out? Time will tell. In the meantime, my neck is begging me to take it easy.

Let's hope an easy day of sky watching day will help.

  1. A sore neck is no fun at all. I do hope your quiet day eases it a bit. My neck is not too bad but is a little sore from all the editing I've been doing at the moment.

  2. Is it sore in the red coloured-in bit? Damn upper trapezius!

  3. It is but is seems to be getting better. My shoulders are stiff, though. I feel like I have some lead in them.
