YOGA FOR GUT HEALTH

The digestive system is sensitive to stress and anxiety. Managing stress and getting enough sleep are linked to good digestive health and these are two areas that yoga has been proven to help with. Physical activity also stimulates the gut and works to prevent digestive issues by increasing blood flow and movement within the digestive system.

The classes in this gut health course are designed to support your digestion and mental health to help bring you relief, boost your mood and promote a healthy gut.

 After Travel: Digest and Stretch

If your gut sometimes feels sore, uncomfortable or 'stuck' after flying, or driving long journeys, this yoga class is for you. Zephyr leads us through some wonderful poses to assist digestion, help the stomach release any tightness and get some circulation back into the limbs. Also includes an amazing anti-sitting stretch. Definitely worth 30 minutes after your journey to arrive with comfort and ease. A couple of foam blocks would be really useful.
