Yoga for constipation, stomach bloating and other digestive problems

If you have stomach pains and gas in your stomach that make you feel bloated like a balloon full of air, or if you have abdominal pain because of it, there is a very simple thing that you can try: move. Your digestion, of course, needs help getting rid of gas stuck in your digestive system. Move your bowel and try the Yoga postures described below, which will bring you immediate relief. If you practice them regularly and change your diet, you will be rid of the pains of a bloated stomach.

Yoga has been a popular treatment for relieving Bowel syndrome problems. With soothing effects for the body and mind, it can prevent pain, bloating, constipation and diarrhea. Yoga strengthens your entire system and helps you stay calm and not give your body a stimulus that causes pain as well as digestive disorders mentioned above.

In general, there are always 2 ways to help your digestive system function properly: proper diet and enough exercise. Yoga can take care of the second part of this equation. Create your own training sequence with the postures below and you’ll soon realize that Yoga helps your body in every possible way.

Ardha Matsyendrasana or average stance of the Lord of the Fishes.

This torsion is very suitable for massaging the abdominal organs and therefore stimulate blood flow in the area and digestion.

Ustrasana or camel posture.

It is an asana of back extension or posterior flexion. Stimulates the organs of the abdomen. Relieves constipation, and balances the entire digestive system.

Bhadakonasana or shoemaker’s position.

This position stimulates the abdominal organs, which makes it very suitable to help us in difficult digestions. It is also very simple and enjoyable to practice so it will not cost you great work even if you are very full. But if you want to make it even more effective, you can try to lean forward with your back straight and arms outstretched. This will be a bit annoying but it is very useful to increase circulation in the abdomen area and improve digestion.

Navasana or boat position.

Among the benefits of this position is to improve digestion, and help relieve stomach pains and gas. In addition, we strengthen and define the abdominal muscles.

Upavistha Konasana or bending forward sitting with legs apart.

This position exerts an important pressure on the abdomen and therefore stimulates all the organs of this area.

Jathara Parivartanasana or “windshield wiper” posture.

Excellent for massaging the abdomen and internal organs and stimulating digestion. Make sure to keep it on both sides during the same time. You can also practice it dynamically: inhale with the legs bent over the chest in the center, exhale and twist to the right, resting the knees on the right side and looking to the left. Try that the left shoulder does not lift off the ground. Inhale back to the center and repeat to the other side.

Apanasana or posture of the knees to the chest.

This position is known in some styles of Yoga such as Bikram, as “wind release pose” or posture to release the gases produced by digestion.

Balasana or child’s posture.

We can finish this sequence to improve our digestion with a simple, relaxing and effective posture to activate circulation and provide a gentle massage to the abdominal organs, through the slight pressure that is generated between the abdomen and the thighs.

I hope this sequence helps you enjoy your celebrations without worrying about the discomfort of digestion.
