Yoga is an ancient technique that has been used to integrate the body and mind for good health for thousands of years. It also has a spiritual component for many people.

The technique includes the following elements to achieve improved mind-body awareness:

  • gentle motion (asanas)

  • breathing exercises (pranayama)

  • contemplation (Dyana)


Your parasympathetic nerve system, sometimes known as the relaxation system, is stimulated.

How Yoga can help in digestion?


The decomposition of food provides nutrients and removes waste materials commonly referred to as "digestion."

Many people, however, use the phrase to describe any digestive problems, including gas, discomfort, bloating, and stool frequency and type.

The gut-brain axes is a neuronal and biochemical signaling system that connects the digestive system and the brain via the bloodstream.

Stomach aches, diarrhea, constipation, vomiting, or changes in appetite & digestion can all be indications of this system reacting to psychological and physical stress.

Yoga is thought to help with digestive health by lowering stress, enhancing circulation, and promoting mobility or physical movement, in the gastrointestinal tract.

Some Yoga Poses to help digestion:


Seated Side Bend Pose (Parsva Sukhasana)


Seated Side Bend Pose (Parsva Sukhasana) is an excellent beginner technique for stretching the obliques, stomach muscles, bottom, and top back, as well as shoulders.

The gentle stretching may aid with bloating and gas, as well as digestion in general.

How to approach it:

  1. Sit cross-legged on the ground, with your hands at your sides touching the floor.

  2. Start raising your left arm straight up in the air, then lean to the right side softly.

  3. Keep your right arm facing outward on the floor.

  4. Inhale and exhale slowly 4–5 times. Then switch sides and do it again.
