Ibs Treatment: Immediate Ibs Relief With Selective Yoga Postures
I have always known that yoga aids in alleviating IBS. And yoga done on a long-term basis can be very helpful in helping one to manage the IBS and keep it in check.
I first started practicing yoga about three years ago and noticed that doing the postures on a regular basis gave me some relief from the pain brought on by IBS. But you know how it is. You’re on the go, and after a great yoga session, things are looking good and you’re keen to get into your regular daily routine. You go about your work, and errands and you are careful with what you eat. Suddenly, especially after a meal, you find yourself burping and feel a bloating sensation in your tummy. You may even start to feel slightly nauseous.
Here are some selective yoga postures and simple exercises which can bring immediate relief from IBS :
The Cobra
If you can lie down, ease into the cobra position. You can find a picture of this pose on any yoga website. As you come up into the cobra pose, take a deep breath and hold for eight seconds. Then as you release the pose with your face down to the floor, release your breath slowly, taking eight counts. Do this for three sets.
Then sit or stand up and pat your tummy gently. You will find yourself burping quite a bit – don’t be alarmed. Continue the patting until you feel that most of the gas has been released.
The ‘Rag Doll’
Another exercise that provides almost instant relief is what I call the ‘rag doll’ pose. Stand upright with your hands by your side. Then as you take a deep breath, raise both hands high above you head. Now as you exhale, drop your head and hands to the ground, keeping your legs and knees as straight as possible. Ideally your hands should touch the ground, but if you can’t do that, try and reach for the ground as best as you can. Allow your body to relax, like a ‘rag doll’.
Now take a deep breath, and slowly move your body to the right hand side, twisting your waist and letting it turn as far to the right as possible. As you do this exhale and hold for eight counts. Remember to keep your knees facing the front and don’t bend them. Now come back to centre and inhale as you do so. Hold your breathe for eight counts.
Repeat the exercise on the left side. Do three sets.
Then stand up and pat your tummy gently. You will find yourself burping quite a bit – don’t be alarmed. Continue the patting until you feel that most of the gas has been released.
The two exercises are easy to do. The ‘rag doll’ is also convenient when you are at work as you can do it in the restroom. My advice is to do the exercises as soon as you feel yourself bloating or feel a gas attack coming on.

6 New Mom Tips to Help You Keep Your Sanity
It is 2:00am and your baby is up, wide awake, and wants to play. Your heart is full of love, but your body cannot keep up! What a precious gift you have been given, but what you would not give at times for a few minutes of rest.
Being a new mom is the most rewarding job in the world and the most exhausting job in the world, all at the very same time. In order to be the best mom you can be to your new little one, you must take care of yourself.
Here are 6 tips to help you new moms keep your sanity:
- Sleep. All the baby books you have read say this, but let me reemphasize, you need to rest when your baby is resting. Not only will you feel recharged, but taking care of yourself will help you take better care of your baby. Plus, you will have an easier time accomplishing anything if you are not a zombie.
- Take care of you. This is in addition to getting sleep whenever possible. Schedule time for yourself daily. This may include getting a shower, going for a walk, meditating, or just reading some of your favorite book. It is extremely important to not forget yourself during this time, difficult as that may sound, you will feel stronger and more ready to take on anything if you are taking care of yourself.
- Plan your meals. You must plan ahead what you are going to eat. We tend to make quick (often poor) decisions on meals when we leave that decision until the last minute. Prep salads, veggies, fruits ahead of time for a quick snack. Make larger quantities of meals you enjoy and freeze them.
- Baskets, baskets and more baskets. A basket can look glamorous while also being a great way to gather things like, books, toys and baby bedding. Putting a “catch-all” basket in a high traffic area of the house can be a great tool to catch items that belong elsewhere. Rather than return each item one at a time, you can gather all the items and return them in the same trip.
- Feeding station. My definition of a “feeding station” is the place where you most that you will need/want during the time you will be feeding your child. Possible things to make sure are in the area: burp rag, feeding pillow, glass of water, good book/magazine, phone, blanket, etc. It is basically a collection of things that will help make you and baby more comfortable during this time.
- Write it down. Any thoughts, ideas, dreams that cross your mind, write them down. We are so focused on our little one that the great thought we have one minute will quickly disappear and quite possibly not return. Many call this “Mommy Brain”.
Make sure to keep things simple; simple meals, simple days, and simple expectations. Enjoy every second, even the ones where you can barely keep your eyes open!
