Now a day, we are very concerned with keeping a tight stomach and trying to sit as tall as we can. The issue is, we harvest a lot of stress in our abdomen and by keeping it tight all of the time we perpetuate the issue. I'm not saying to slouch, and I'm not saying to let it all hang out all of the time. I'm saying to learn how to have good posture and how to let go of tension. Here are some exercises to gain control of your stomach in tension and in relaxation. These will also help your abdominal content to move properly and may help moderate digestive issues.
- Let it all hang out, just relax the tension in your abdomen. It will take time for you to be comfortable doing this.
-Try to gain control with your breath, this video might help challenge your skills : This is a yoga video giving a step by step progression of a breathing exercise called Nauli Kriya.
I hope this helps you relieve some of your abdominal tension.
