11 Posture Fixes for the Indian Work-From-Home Generation

6. Ease neck stiffness with chin tucks and mobility drills

Forward head posture is common when phone screens or laptop cameras sit low. A simple chin tuck helps: sit tall, gently draw the chin straight back (not down), hold for five seconds, and repeat ten times. This strengthens deep neck muscles that support the head over the spine. Add gentle side-to-side neck stretches and slow rotation drills to keep the neck mobile. Try these between calls or every hour you’re at the desk. Also check how you hold the phone — use a headset or prop the phone up so you’re not tilting the head down for long calls. Regular mobility keeps the neck flexible and reduces headaches linked to tight upper traps.
