@kregweiss Thanks for the information - my headaches start at the base of my skull and travel around the right side of my head, which sounds like it fits your description. Are there any other exercises/practices which you would recommend to help? I think my problem stems from carrying my baby around a lot, and I also seem to have trigger points in my neck and shoulders which set my headaches off if pressure is put on them for too long. Thank you again for posting this video though - it really is the only thing which has helped me and kept me sane when the pain is really bad.

great to hear @mamabeanie ... the neck 'retraction' exercises are particularly beneficial as they release loading tension from the suboccipital muscles (deep neck extensors and rotators just below the base of the back of the skull) ... running through these suboccipitals are cranial nerves - when those muscles are spasmed or tense, they compress the nerves leading to tension headaches ... so, get the neck back into balance over the body, release the suboccipitals, and likely the bulk of tension headaches may dissipate.

So simple, quick and effective at loosening up all those neck and back muscles. The perfect thing to do after sitting at a computer. It works for me.
