1. Shoulders and neck. - Clasp your palms together and stretch up above your head feeling your shoulders release tension. Pull your chin down to your chest and take 3 deep breaths in and out. Repeat twisting your torso from left to right. 

2. Wrists. - Place your left hand palm down. Take your right hand palm up under the fingers of your left hand. Push your fingers back slowly towards your body. Hold for 10 seconds and release. Rotate your left hand in circles releasing all tension from your wrists. Repeat the process with your right hand. 

3. Arms. - Whilst sitting straight, pull your right arm across your body. Press your left arm before your right elbow towards your chest. Stretch open and close your fingers of your right hand. You will feel the release in the top of your arm and shoulders.
