Gaming & Digestion: Light Yet Game-Savvy Poses For Your Digestive System

by Dhanya Parameswaran | 26 Nov 2021

Gamers, as portrayed in the mass media often depicts a basement dwelling introvert that rarely engages in physical exercise activities. We’re here to help change that and improve your gaming experiences through some yoga poses that’ll restore your digestive system over your gaming breaks and stretches.

Disclaimer note: Do not attempt to practice yoga on a full stomach and kindly refrain from eating 2 hours before your yoga session in order to fully maximize your body’s natural digestive process.

1. Apanasa

This yoga pose is best known for its “wind releasing” specialty when bloating occurs. To execute this pose, simply lie down on your back and tuck your knees towards your chest to release tension. Wrap your shins with your hands and rock from left to right while keeping the knees tucked in throughout the exercise.

2. Seated Twist

The twisting movement within this yoga pose can assist in relieving stress. To engage in this pose, you can start by bending 1 knee to your chest with the other completely straight and grounded on your yoga mat. Then, hug your arm around your bent knee and cross your bent knee over the straight leg for an increased twist.

3. Malasana

Keep your gut and bowel movement flowing with this squatted yoga pose that promotes elimination. It is similar to a sumo squat, except it requires you to squat as low and as wide as you possibly can for added benefits. Just in case if you require some extra support, don’t be shy to rest your sit bones on a yoga block and continue holding the pose.

4. Child’s Pose with Inwards Fists

This extension to the infamous child’s pose offers gentle compression on the stomach. You can start by hugging your belly and chest towards your thighs and gradually increase the compression in your lower abdomen by clenching your fists with both hands and carefully place each fist in the fleshy parts of your lower abdomen.

5. Supported Bridge

The supported bridge provides a gentle backbend and is a great yoga pose to open up those tense chest muscles while fully stretching your torso. With the help of a simple yoga block, you can turn this usually active pose into a surprisingly restful one. Start by getting into a bridge pose, find a comfortable level for your back and place a yoga block gently under the sacrum for a relaxing pose and smooth breathing.
