Fortunately, with the power of yoga, we can effectively alleviate and prevent gas troubles. In this article, we will explore some simple yet effective yoga asanas that can help you find relief and regain control over your digestive system.

Vajra Asana (Thunderbolt Pose)

• Sit on the floor with your legs folded under your buttocks, heels touching the sides of your buttocks.

·             Place your hands gently on your thighs or knees, allowing them to rest comfortably.

• Take deep breaths, elongating your spine and relaxing your abdominal muscles.
• This pose aids in digestion by improving blood circulation to the abdominal area and stimulating digestive organs.

        

Pawan Mukta Asana (Wind-Relieving Pose)

·            Get into a relaxed position by lying on your back, and stretch out your legs in front of you.

·      Gently flex your knees and draw them closer to your chest, creating a comfortable,       hugging-like position.

• Clasp your hands around your knees and slowly rock back and forth.

Variation: Single Leg Wind-Relieving Pose

• From the basic Wind-Relieving Pose, straighten one leg while keeping the other knee bent.

• Hold the pose for a few deep breaths, then repeat on the other side.
• This asana stimulates the digestive fire and promotes the smooth movement of gas through the digestive tract.
