When your neck hurts... practice this! Also when you have back pain, shoulder pain, stiffness in any of these areas or a headache... this is my all time favorite yoga pose... it's that good. You could call it fish prep, or sea bass (as my student Reid calls it), or just plain "the best yoga pose ever."
Thanks to my teacher Desiree Rumbaugh for teaching this to me years ago and for having the strongest, sexiest neck I've ever seen! ;-)
