Stress and indigestion relief with back stretch yoga

Modern people pursue everything quickly. They eat too fast and are under a lot of pressure, which can easily lead to gastrointestinal discomfort and indigestion. In order to relieve the pain of indigestion, a well-known American yoga instructor demonstrated a series of yoga moves that can help relieve stress, stretch the limbs, and relieve indigestion.

Indigestion is a common problem for many modern people. American yoga coaches have compiled a series of yoga moves that can relieve stress and alleviate indigestion.

The American health information website Health.com reported that Zayna Gold, a Boston yoga instructor who is herself a Crohn's disease patient, designed a set of yoga moves that can relieve indigestion and stretch the limbs, in view of her frequent abdominal discomfort, to help people with similar gastrointestinal problems relieve stress through exercise.

[5 back-stretching techniques to relieve indigestion]

Pull-back style:

This simple stretch can help relieve stress and relieve the pressure that can cause indigestion. Sit on the floor, stretch your legs forward, slowly lean your upper body forward, stay in this position, and breathe 5-10 times. If you can't lie completely on your legs, just try to lie forward as much as possible, making sure you are comfortable and can feel your muscles stretching.

Cat Pose/Cow Pose:

These two movements stretch your spine and relieve stress around your back and neck. Kneel on the ground or yoga mat with your hands on the ground. When inhaling, keep your back straight and tighten your abdominal muscles. When exhaling, look down and arch your spine to form a cat pose. Then, as you inhale, lift your hips and raise your head into Cow Pose. Alternate between these two movements, inhaling into Cow Pose and exhaling into Cat Pose, repeating several times.

Child’s pose:

This basic movement is a relaxing stretch. Maintain this movement, breathe at least 5 times, kneel down, keep your feet apart, and then sit on your heels. Lean forward, stretch your arms out in front of you, keep your back straight, and rest your forehead on the floor. If this is too difficult, place a pillow or yoga block in front of your body and rest your forehead on it.

Side Triangle Pose:

This exercise works the abdomen and also helps stretch and twist the body. Stand still, take a big step back with your right foot, open your arms outward, lean your upper body forward, feel your spine lengthen, support yourself on the ground with your left hand, raise your right arm, turn your head to the right, and look at your right hand. Then turn your head back to the front and look at your left foot, then slowly return to standing position, and repeat on the other side. If you can't support yourself with your hands, stop next to your calves or place a yoga block next to your feet and support your hands there.

Chair Style:

This move can help expand your chest while also strengthening and toning your legs. Stand with your feet together, knees bent, and imagine you are sitting in a chair with your hands raised. To return to the starting position, extend your arms as you exhale, then return to standing. If you want to increase the challenge, you can return to a standing position after each breath and do it again. If this movement is too difficult, doing it against a wall can help you maintain your balance. If you have stiff movements, you can try standing with your feet hip-width apart.

Breathing method:

After your workout, take five minutes to focus on deep breathing, which yoga instructor Zayna Gold says is a great way to end a session and strengthen your digestive system. Exhale slowly through your nose, then inhale slowly through your nose, repeat 5-10 times.
