Yoga for digestive health: Poses and practices for a healthy gut

Foods affect digestive system efficiency. Most people don't know what foods make them feel good or bad, even though many want to improve their gut health by promoting a healthy digestive system.

Yoga can reduce bloating, gas, cramping, stress, and anxiety. Some yoga poses to cleanse the body. Many twisting and tourniquet-like asanas help move waste products out of the large intestine and colon.

Postures in yoga that help your stomach

The benefits of yoga for digestion and some suggested poses to try are outlined below.

Boat Pose

To aid digestion, the boat pose works to strengthen the abdominal muscles. Furthermore, it stimulates the production of digestive enzymes. The full expression of this pose relieves pressure on the stomach and liver by raising the diaphragm.

Seated Forward Bend Poses

The liver and kidneys are activated, and digestion is aided in the seated forward bend pose. In this position, the organs of digestion and reproduction are compressed as the body leans forward. The internal organs are being healed and toned as a result of the pressure. If you want to get a good night's sleep and help your body unwind, strike this pose right before bed.

Camel Pose

Camel pose requires a lot of concentration. You'll feel the positive effects as soon as you release the pose. Camel pose improves digestion by increasing blood flow to the entire body. The elongation of the torso has a reawakening effect on the digestive system. This helps alleviate heartburn symptoms as well.

Wind-relieving Pose

As its name implies, the "wind-relieving pose" helps alleviate symptoms of bloating and flatulence. This position eases pressure on the digestive tract, allowing gas to escape more easily.

Sitting Half Spinal Twist

The sitting half spinal twist efficiently stimulates gut detoxification by releasing toxins in a tourniquet-like fashion. By stimulating blood flow, twists act as a massage for your organs from the inside out. They are great for relieving constipation, bloating, and gas.

Triangle Poses

The benefits of the triangle pose for digestion, appetite, and constipation are well-documented. The kidneys and other abdominal organs are encouraged to function more efficiently through massage and increased blood flow to the area.

Cat and Cow Pose

The cat and cow pose is a popular yoga asana by stimulates digestive motion and relieves gas, bloating, and stress in the abdomen. It aids in stretching the spine in both directions, which helps loosen tight muscles and ease back pain.

Child's Pose

Because of its calming effect, the child's pose is widely regarded as the most vital yoga position. This posture aids digestion by compressing the organs responsible for digestion. Reduced symptoms of IBS and stomach ulcers have been linked to this pose's calming effect on the nervous system.

Upward-facing Dog

The dog's upturned form opens up the abdominal area. When you release tension in your abdominal area, you send a signal to your digestive system. The bowels are calmed, and this pose aids the elimination process because it stimulates the intestines.

Conclusion

Although yoga is beneficial whenever practiced, it is most effective first thing in the morning. The hours just before sunset are the second most fruitful. Finding the best time of day and class format for you may require some experimentation.

To the person who asked if it’s cool for your belly to touch the ground in upward facing dog- it may not be traditional but my belly DEFINITELY still brushes the mat even in my deepest updogs. I think it’s a fat kid thing but I’m no expert. I don’t think it really matters what your belly meat does because belly meat doesn’t negate the presence of a strong core- as long as you’re lifting through your core, I think the benefits of the posture still stand. #yogatutorial #upwardfacingdog Thought I was too auntie for tiktok but here we are- actually, probably still too auntie but I fuck with it. Follow me on tiktok @mynameisjessamyn Also I’m teaching two live yoga classes today and Saturday- I’m teaching on @bet’s FB Live House Party TODAY at 1pm EST & then on SATURDAY I’m teaching a free IG Live class on @mynameisjessamyn at 3pm EST to raise money to #FreeBlackMamas for @nationalbailout- check my IG story for class notifications ❤️ ❤️ #ubyoga #bethouseparty #everybodyyoga (at Durham County, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_49F_DHlJl/?igshid=shofjrutovao

Train your mind to become completely engaged with what you’re doing/feeling/experiencing in each posture. Paying attention to everything big and small. The #updog you practice today is not the same as the one you practiced yesterday or last week. They might be similar but they are not the same. #payattention more and more to subtleties. Become never bored, always interested. #tostillthemindisyoga Sadly, for those who practice in an environment where loud music is constantly played and the teacher relentlessly has something to say, they may never develop this super power of #attention . Don’t be afraid... listen to #laotzu who said, “silence is a super power” and “to the mind that is still, the whole universe surrenders.” #silenceisgolden Let the breath be the music you practice to. #svadhyaya Break free of the addiction to entertainment. Be here now. #kaizen #ashtanga #vinyasa #yoga #ashtangayoga #vinyasayoga #igyoga #upwardfacingdog #urdhvamukhasvanasana #yogaeverydamnday #yogaeveryday #detroityoga #michiganyoga #beherenow And if you don’t know who Lao Tzu is, you have homework.

Today is your opportunity to make your tomorrow better. If you think of it from the point that your today is the result of your yesterdays, it’s clear that what you are doing today is either moving your forward or moving you backward. That’s why you want to grab today by the horns and make the most of it as you can. Do that enough times and you’ll start to see signs that your todays are getting better, which only sets you up better and better for tomorrow. You can find yourself in negative or positive spiral based on how well you are spending your days. Remember that sometimes not getting what you want is a wonderful stroke of luck. #yogachallenges #upwardfacingdog #YogaLife #yogakids #yogini #yogafitness #yogaeveryday #yogastrong #yogadudes #yogatime #yogaaday #YogaAddict #yogavideo #yogajournal #yogagoals #yogavibes #yogabeginner #yogamotivation #Yogalove #yogalifestyle #InspireMeAfricaInitiative #BboySkaterGeorge (at Kampala, Uganda) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtxIl6nH58U/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=16ilk5xo3vl01
