Constipation, bloating, indigestion, and gas can all be frustrating and difficult to manage. In this video, I outline my three favorite, go-to yoga moves to help ease the digestive system and relieve these symptoms.

Oh my goodness, I am so, so sorry to hear that you were suffering from such a painful attack! I’m really glad you found these techniques to be helpful - diet does seem to play a large role in managing IBS and preventing those attacks, you’re right! I fully intend on completing my IBS series once my husband and I return from our honeymoon (we’ll be back to the states end of March/beginning of April), where I will finish outlining how I’ve seen people successfully manage IBS through diet. Until then, I did want to share a different technique with you in case you do have another attack. I’ve found that intestinal massage can be very soothing for some people during IBS attacks - I outline this technique, here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fHWA2tmCebO5YMo.html Finally, thank you so much for the kind words.

I am so sorry to hear about your son! I love that you are searching for natural ways to help him - he so isn’t alone in this experience at all. There are actually pelvic physical therapists who specialize in treating children with pelvic dysfunction! A good pediatric pelvic PT would be able to evaluate your son with you, and try and figure out through both a musculoskeletal lens and a lifestyle lens what is causing his constipation! If pelvic PT sounds like something you’d be interested in and you live in the US, you can use this directory to find a specialist near you: pelvicrehab.com Be sure, when you call the clinics, to be clear that your child is 6 and suffering from constipation/fear of bowel movements, as not all pelvic PTs treat children. I really wish you two nothing but the best. Please don’t hesitate to ask any questions along the way ❤️

You seem like a really cool person and your voice and way of saying things is very soothing and reassuring. I will definitely try these!

Hi! I hope these actions will help my pregnant Daugher who is in her first trimester!

I am so glad that I found you and have watched a bunch of your videos in the past couple days. I struggle from colonic inertia and wanted to explain what happens to me in hopes that you might have some ideas. I really appreciate your knowledge and cheerful demeanor. It helped get me through a frustrating day yesterday. Every morning, I wakeup full of liquidy stool that takes 3-4 hours to get out. I take Linzess at 1 a.m. as it takes a few hours to work, and taking it in the morning is not an option for me as I need to start working. I also take herbal laxatives at night. Without these, stool does not move through me. During the 3-4 hour process, I use about 20-30 glycerine suppositories as it seems I need something in my rectum to signal it to release stool. I also use 2 stimulant bisacodyl suppositories during this process. I also find that I release stool much easier if I squat on top of my toilet bowl. This is really not ideal, but it works. It isn't until I get all of the stool out that I feel decent enough to start the day. Oddly, my right arm, neck and shoulder crack and have soreness until I can evacuate the stool. I have started doing the exercises in your video as well as taking the prune/apple juice/oat bran mix. I am wondering if you might be able to suggest anything else. I'd really appreciate it!

Hi Nicole! First of all, I am so, so sorry to learn about your struggles with your bowel health. I know it isn't the same, but having navigated my own chronic pelvic health issues, I know how challenging healing can be -- and I know how dark those "frustrating" days sometimes are. I'm confident you're an incredibly strong person, I'm so happy you're still here, and I hope you find time to celebrate all you've survived! Second of all, I'm honored that you're reaching out to me for help; however, I cannot give individualized medical advice. I can only share general information and resources. That being said, have you ever heard of pelvic physical therapy? I think a pelvic physical therapy who is comfortable using "balloon training," or "manometry" could be incredibly helpful for you! Not all pelvic PTs are well versed in bowel health, so finding one who is and who knows how to, at the very least, test your rectal tissue health with a balloon could be a super helpful starting point. Given what you've shared with me, you want a provider who can help you wean off of the stimulant laxatives, jump start peristalsis, and retrain your rectal tissue sensitivity if you need it. Essentially, the rectum and the brain communicate via stretch, and there are established normal volumes that fill the rectum before the brain recognizes that something is there, has its first urge to defecate, and then reaches max capacity. Sometimes, when someone has a history of constipation and stimulant (herbal) laxative dependence, those volumes are higher than the norm, and it takes much more to fill the rectum before the brain registers it needs to defecate! This can be retrained!! You can learn more about this aspect of rectal tissue health by watching this video, if you're interested: kzread.info/dash/bejne/iH6kldGsoLvIZKQ.html Anyway, I really think working with a pelvic PT who has experiencing treating bowel dysfunction, who can assess your rectal tissue volumes and compare them to the norms, retrain your rectal tissue if you need it, work with you on natural peristalsis stimulation, help you wean off of the stimulant laxatives, and further assess your lifestyle/diet/body and apply any other tailored interventions would be a wonderful next step! If you live in the US, you can use this directory to find a provider near you: pelvicrehab.com If you choose to go that route, be specific when speaking to the front desk! Tell them you need a provider who knows bowel dysfunction, not all pelvic PTs will have the specialized training I think could really benefit you. Finally, know that bodies are capable of IMMENSE healing. I've seen people heal from seemingly hopeless conditions, and I don't think your body is an exception. You deserve to feel peace both in your body and your mind. I wish I could be more helpful! I wish you the absolute best in your healing, and I hope this helps bring you one step closer to peace ♥️

Thank you for that push and the notes on what specifically to look for. I'll do some research this week. I am doing your pelvic floor exercise video now as I imagine those exercises might help a bit. I'm not sure if I mentioned this in the initial comment, but I find that squatting on top of my toilet (with my feet on the toilet) helps a ton with release of stool. I am now trying to find a set up that allows me to do that a little more safely and comfortably. If you have any ideas there, I'd love to hear them. I have found so many of your videos to be helpful.

​@@nicolegraziano8141 I'm so sorry to learn that you've not had much help from two other pelvic providers -- pelvic health is a speciality within PT, but you can further specialize within the specialty. Some pelvic providers are really well versed in bladder health, but don't know a lot about treating bowel dysfunction. Others are really good at bowel dysfunction, but not so good at sexual dysfunction. We try to produce well rounded practitioners, but there are always limitations, if that makes sense. Finding someone who really knows their bowel stuff, knows about anorectal manometry, and is comfortable assessing you structurally might be helpful. Squatting like you described being so helpful could have a lot do with your pelvic floor muscles, but it could also have a lot to do with the actual structure of your rectum, if that makes sense. Your organs move in your pelvis, and if someone needs a specific position to defecate (or urinate, for that matter) successfully, sometimes that means muscle involvement (the pelvic floor has trouble relaxing), and sometimes that means structural involvement. It would be helpful to have a provider who can appreciate your structural anatomy and your musculature, if that makes sense. Experience and special interest in bowel health -- anyone who is comfortable with manometry likely has a special interest in bowel health, if that's helpful! Finding the right provider can be an undertaking in and of itself. Don't give up, and trust your intuition! Healthcare is a service industry, and just like you can shop around in other service industries, know that you can shop around for the right provider!

Before the enema I had drank an entire bottle of magnesium citrate, 6 tablespoons of castor oil and many many laxatives and stool softeners over the last few days. Nothing really worked except the enema. It has been 24 hours since the first castor oil tbs and 11 hours since the magnesium citrate. I’m going to try these you’re showing us.

I am so, so sorry to hear of your struggle with constipation resulting from psychiatric medication. I know very personally how overwhelming pelvic issues can be, and I hate hearing that you feel this is taking up so much space your life. Constipation and GI issues in general are very individual in nature. Everyone's gut is different, which means everyone's constipation is different. I cannot offer you individualized medical advice, but I am confident that your body is capable of healing. I highly recommend seeking out a healthcare professional who you trust that can evaluate your properly, and guide you with interventions that are tailored to your unique presentation. Remember that healthcare is a SERVICE industry! If you don't have a good feeling about your provider, shop around, trust your instincts, and don't feel bad if you don't feel you and a certain provider are "compatible." Don't be scared to do your research! Knowledge helps so much with fear. Learn all you can about that psychiatric medication. What is its mechanism of action? Why would it cause constipation? How can you change your lifestyle habits to specifically heal that cause? How have others who have had a similar experience healed? Collect as much information as you can and know that your opinion about how best to heal yourself is important, too! I wish I could be more helpful. Wishing you health and safety during this uncertain time 💛

Hey Forever Feminism...ask your doctor to prescribe you Amitiza capsules (generic name is Lubiprostone). It helps alleviate constipation caused by medications for other issues. ( I know, it sounds odd to fight your problem that was caused by medicine with more medicine, but if the awesome methods in this great video aren't helping, then maybe try it. I was in a similar situation as you, and Amitiza helped me, where other herbal and natural remedies could not.)

You're welcome ❤ Have you read much about IBS and its potential relationship to the gastrocolic reflex? I work with a lot of humans who have IBS, whether its -C, -D, or both, and we sometimes find good relief and success working through the lens of an "overactive" or "under-active" gastrocolic reflex and being mindful of soluble vs. insoluble fiber intake. If you haven't heard of this perceptive, I recommend reading more at this website: www.helpforibs.com/footer/gastrocolic.asp It's an amazing resource if you haven't found it, yet! Otherwise, it depends on your background with IBS-C! I usually recommend: 1. Intestinal massage in the morning, before bed, or after meals: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fHWA2tmCebO5YMo.html 2. Sitting properly on the toilet for BMs: kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z5mbrY9wmtWreLA.html 3. Movement after meals! Even if it is just a 2-3 minute walk or small jog 4. Not aiming for a specific number of BMs/week, instead aiming for the "ideal bowel habit" guidelines, whatever frequency that looks like: * The ability to defer the urge to poop at least 1 hour without abdominal or rectal pain as a result of deferring that urge * Complete voluntary control over gas and normally formed stool, not diarrhea (a.k.a. no leaking gas or poop!) * Prompt initiation of a bowel movement once sitting on the toilet * Smooth, steady passage of stool over 1-2 minutes or less without pain, bleeding, or prolapse * Sensation of complete rectal emptying upon leaving the toilet * No rectal or perianal skin symptoms between bowel movements * No abdominal pain or bloating between bowel movements Wishing you the best!

I think that you are beautiful and have a love-able personality. I find your content useful and instructive. I have a friend who has a dropped uterus. Do you have any useful exercises or advice for her?

Thank you so much for the kind words both about me and my channel - can't tell you how much I appreciate it ❤ As far as your friend -- for a dropped uterus, or a prolapse, I would recommend a few things: 1. The organs in the pelvic bowl are held up by two things: the pelvic floor and the ligaments. Imagine a boat, docked, floating on water. If the boat is an organ, the pelvic floor is like the water, and the rope tying the boat to the dock is like the ligaments. I'd recommend your friend see a pelvic physical therapist so she can get her pelvic floor assessed, and then likely strengthen the pelvic floor for better support of the uterus. If your friend lives in the US, she can use this directory to find a pelvic PT in her area: pelvicrehab.com 2. The other tool that could be useful to better support the ligaments is a pessary. That would be something for her to discuss more with her pelvic PT or her GYN, but here are some educational videos all about pessaries/how they work: www.acog.org/patients/patient-education-videos/pelvic-organ-prolapse Wishing her the best!

Thank you so much for video, is this movements could be helpful for outlet constipation when everything moving well but can not get out , very hopeful for your advice 🙏🏻

Hi! These movements may help with outlet constipation, but I think pelvic floor relaxation may be more helpful than these movements (these help get the intestines moving the most!). I have a different video up going through some pelvic floor relaxation techniques, here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fIiXw8mId73ZfKw.html I hope the pelvic floor relaxation helps you!

You’re so sweet, and you’re so welcome! I’m really glad it was helpful for you ❤️ food can be really tricky, because everyone’s GI system is so different. The classic recommendations are increased fiber and water intake, but some people will respond to these with bloat/discomfort. It’s hard to give generalized information on food, unfortunately. I wish I could be more helpful! Wishing you health and safety during this uncertain time ❤️

I love that you are eating healthy, staying hydrated, and exercising regularly -- that is wonderful! Bloating is another tricky symptom that can be caused by a number of things. I wish I could tell you exactly what causes it, but it really depends on the person. When trying to figure out what could be the cause of your specific bloating, I've found that symptom diaries can be really helpful! Tracking what and when you eat/drink, and then when you have bloating/how long it lasts/how intense it is, may help you connect some dots and see some patterns that you may not have seen before!

@PelvicEmpowerment

5 жыл бұрын

You're welcome, thank you for watching! I can't give personalized medical advice, but generally speaking -- one of the best things you can do with conservative management when it comes to rectocele or any other form of pelvic organ prolapse is pressure management! Making sure you are exhaling (not breath-holding!) when you exert/not straining on the toilet/well supported when you exercise, etc. If you haven't seen a pelvic physical therapist, you might benefit from pelvic PT! A pelvic PT can teach you a lot of helpful lifestyle techniques as well as potentially help improve the symptoms of your rectocele with proper pelvic floor exercises tailored to your goals and lifestyle!

Hello, I'm so happy that this was helpful for you, and I'm honored that you're comfortable asking me for help, thank you ❤️ Unfortunately, which exercises are most helpful for managing chronic IBS-C vary person to person. I can't give individualized medical advice; however, I can encourage pelvic physical therapy! A good pelvic PT would be able to assess your abdomen, pelvic floor, surrounding muscles, and lifestyle habits to tailor specific interventions/exercises that align with you and your unique body! If you live in the US, you can use this directory to find a provider near you: pelvicrehab.com/ If you don't live in the US, google searching "pelvic physiotherapy near me" might be a helpful place to start finding a provider in your area! I really wish I could be more helpful, and I wish you the best in your healing 🤗

@@innakhesin3282 Okay, I highly suggest seeing a pelvic physical therapist. Dyssynergia can be a tricky diagnosis -- it essentially means the pelvic floor muscle that should relax when someone is trying to bear down (or push out) poop is contracting instead. I have seen many patients in clinic who have been given this diagnosis, but that's actually not what's going on. You can imagine that trying to defecate in front of a physician/other health care providers can be stressful, as is having a balloon in the rectum. Sometimes the person taking the anorectal manometry test clenches up/contracts because of the discomfort of the test, unclear verbal instruction, or the very nature of being watched while trying to defecate. Other times, when dyssynergia is truly the culprit, pelvic PT can be incredibly effective!
