How to improve gastritis with yoga



Whether or not the stomach is the seat of emotions - as some claim - it does not matter: the fact is that each of us has experienced on our skin how much they can affect this precious organ.

Gastritis is one of the most common disorders related to it and, although it may have various causes, very often the psychological one, if not triggering it, constitutes a considerable aggravating factor.

Yoga can act very effectively on this component of the problem by helping to restore the lost inner balance and helping to untie the emotional knots that grip the individual. A small antidote to nervousness, anger, stress that are some of the great enemies of our stomach.

Not only asana for gastritis

Each yoga session, by its very nature and essence, can help gastritis sufferers.

It is the discipline in itself that, placing itself alongside the pharmacological therapy (if necessary), can make an important contribution to the management of the problem precisely because it focuses on the release of tensions and on the ability to find relaxation, physical and mental.

In any case, if you prefer to have a more specific indication, a rather simple position that both Gabriella Cella and BSK Iyengar advise in their respective works to alleviate gastritis is jathara parivartasana, or the position that turns the abdomen.

  1. Lie flat on your back with your arms open at shoulder height.
  2. In inspiration, bend the legs and bring them to the chest.
  3. When exhaling, lower the legs so joined to the right as close to the ground as possible. The left shoulder should remain in contact with the floor.
  4. Perform with the same timing on the other side.

Very useful then are all the relaxation positions that can be taken even if you are very tired and discharged. Combined with proper breathing, they help to calm the mind in a few minutes and consequently to alleviate the disorders related to anxiety, nervousness and tension.

For the same reason, highly recommended would be yoga nidra sessions, or yogic sleep, but in this case it is necessary to find CDs that guide relaxation or adapt to what the web offers. If we do not want to invest time or money in research, we can simply give ourselves meditation sessions : face to face with our breath, wherever we are and at any time of the day.

Gastritis: the importance of a different lifestyle

Our life style, if on the one hand grants access to considerable material benefits (at least for some), on the other hand requires a very high tribute in terms of quality of life.

Especially in recent years there are many thinkers, economists and intellectuals who wonder whether the game is simply worth the candle. The answer, unfortunately, we will experience on our skin, in the meantime we try to preserve our health - physical and mental - with activities such as yoga that can help us slow down the hectic pace of everyday life for the benefit of our well-being and ... of our stomach.
