Intestine Exercise
By Michela | September 17, 2007
Monday is usually intestine exercise day at the Dahn Yoga center in which I work. Intestine exercises are a little strange for people at first. I have grown to love them. You can do them anywhere at anytime. To do them you move the muscles of your lower abdomen toward your back, as if there was a string attached to your navel pulling it back. Then you push the muscles out as far as you can. It is like giving your abdomen a massage and can help conditions such as shoulder tension, coldness in your abdomen, and constipation. Try them and share your experience here!

This week I had a friend visit from the mainland. She is very active and “strong” but not at all flexible and she is usually constipated (especially after a 13 hour flight). I taught her about Dahn-jon tapping, body tapping, toe tapping, and basic breathing and stretching. Then I took her to the center for a class.
She leaves today, but she had such a good experience here that she will continue to do exercises. When she gets home she will look into locations of centers…she travels alot.
Dahn Yoga is not limited to just a few special people. It is for everyone who wants to make a differnce in themselves, family, friends,etc. I love when I can share with my friends things that I have learned here. I love to see them smile and say “this feels good”.
