The 2 Best Yin Yoga Poses for Constipation in 5 mins

[@khushiimalik]

Thank you so much!!! It worked. I was only constipated since yesterday. But my migraine came to the party, so I was worried I was gonna have one of those days today. But I didn't. So cheers!

[@YogaLifestylewithMelissa]

good to hear :) ...I completely understand...I get nervous too when I think a migraine is about to start :(

[@sonamn851]

I couldn’t believe :: I just tried as I have heavily constipated :: it worked not fully but atleast gave me some relief .. thanks a lot

[@YogaLifestylewithMelissa]

Wonderful!

[@marykitchin8354]

My colon is relaxed now.I watched your demo for relaxing ascending&descending colon.

[@YogaLifestylewithMelissa]

Wonderful!

[@lineavictoria2631]

I forgot i was lactose intolerant (yes, i genuinely forgot) and ate 2 liters of yoghurt over 3 days. I woke up at 3 am last night from INTENSE stabbing pains in my colon/rectum.... i really thought my colon was about to explode from my stool being stuck. I cried out in pain for 5 hours and then finally had a bowel movement which relieved a majority of the pain. I swear to god i’ve never felt this kind of pain, and i have a high pain tolerance. Lesson learned: i am lactose intolerant and should not eat yoghurt like that EVER AGAIN 😅 today im still a little uncomfortable with gas and a some constipation still, so i’ll try these yoga poses. I also just had a whole bunch of water, prune juice and a dose of laxatives - so now its just a waiting game i guess 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@allinonetruthinformation4399]

Thanks for information.

[@nataliapaz458]

did the prune juice and laxatives help?

[@lineavictoria2631]

Natalia Paz yes, it does help. The prunes are better as a long term solution if you struggle with constipation regularly, though. If you eat 5 prunes a day i promise you’ll feel better in a few days. Try psyllium/husk fibers. They’re nasty to swallow, but try incorporating them in oatmeal. That way you wont have to gag 😂

[@MegaBella2013]

Omg god bless you! I had a crazy headache due to my constipation this morning and I can’t believe it’s all relieved.very effective technique i will recommend it to everyone and if you still are constipated after this then must see a specialist.

[@YogaLifestylewithMelissa]

so pleased it helped :)

[@margarethunter9650]

Thank you! A nice reminder to relax and let things flow over you.... It worked! I will try more of your you tube gifts!

[@YogaLifestylewithMelissa]

[@ileeeaaannn3347]

I changed my eating habits to more healthy and I’ve been constipated for the past few months, I hope this helps! It’s so scary cause I’ve also been dealing with anxiety and every time I can’t go I feel like my stomach is just going to burst from the the pain on my side

[@YogaLifestylewithMelissa]

you should probably see a medical doctor ...just to be safe :)

[@ScottLawlor]

Hi melissa. I'm totally blind so could you describe that last pose you did in this video. I'm presuming you were on your tummy since your voice was more muffled than during the other two poses but was there something special about the precise positioning you're supposed to be in? thank you for the help, I appreciate it.

[@caitlinmclaughlin3442]

Hi Scott. I’m not Melissa but wanted to help. In the last pose, she was on her knees and bum on her ankles, then leaned over and put forearms on the ground. So I’m leaning over this way, it puts the pressure of your stomach on your colon area. I hope this helps!

It is wrong... Biologically, you should drink 2-3 glass of water in morning and then go potty ... This is best practise...

Hi

[@N24-l5i]

Yoga is nice and relaxing but too gentle for chronic or severe constipation when people are living in misery. Go see a bowel function specialist. These doctors and nurses have clinics and will help you achieve better bowel function. It could take months of retraining your bowel but any improvement is beneficial long-term. You do NOT want bowel problems in old age!

you might want to see a doctor...pain shouldn't be experienced with these poses :)
