YAWN
The Energy Yawn (from the Brain Gym)
How to
As you begin to yawn, lightly press the fingertips of each hand against any tight spots you feel where your cheeks cover your upper and lower molars. Make a deep, relaxed yawning sound while gently stroking away any tension. Repeat as many times as you need.
What the Energy Yawn does
More than 50% of all the neurological connections from the brain to the rest of the body pass through the jaw joints. Massaging the area over the muscles that open and close the mouth relaxes the jaw, freeing these connections for increased whole brain integration.
The Energy Yawn also relaxes the eyes by stimulating lubrication. For many people there is a positive relationship between ease of jaw motion, ease of expression and even creative ability.
