Natural Remedies

These natural remedies are easy to prepare at home with three common kitchen ingredients: green cardamom (elaichi), cumin (jeera), and fennel (saunf). Take equal amounts of green cardamom, cumin, and fennel, mix them together, and dry roast them on a medium flame until they become fragrant. Let them cool completely and store this mixture in an airtight glass container. You can have a small amount of this mixture after your meals to help with digestion and reduce bloating.

These spices contain carminative properties, meaning they can help expel gas from the digestive tract and naturally reduce bloating. Dry roasting these seeds activates their beneficial compounds, which can stimulate the production of digestive enzymes and promote smoother digestion.

Yogasans

Yogasans can be very effective in reducing bloating. The following asanas can help:

• Pavanmuktasana (Wind-Relieving Pose): By bringing the knees to the chest, you compress the abdomen, helping in massaging the digestive organs and facilitating the relief of trapped gas.

• Balasana (Child’s Pose): This pose is excellent for relaxing the abdominal muscles and relieving gases. It also promotes relaxation and reduces stress, indirectly helping in releasing bloating.

• Markatasana (Crocodile Pose): This pose helps in reducing gases, which automatically reduces bloating by releasing gas in the digestive tract.

• Shavasana (Corpse Pose): This final relaxing pose helps in overall relaxation and reducing bloating. Stress can disrupt digestion and lead to bloating, making this asana important.

Warm Compress

Another effective method to combat bloating is to use a warm compress. Applying heat to your abdomen with a hot water bag will increase blood flow to the area, relaxing the muscles and stimulating the movement of food and gas through the digestive tract. Simply place a warm compress or a warm water bottle on your belly for about 15 to 20 minutes to feel more comfortable.

Lifestyle Changes

To prevent and alleviate bloating, consider making the following lifestyle changes:

• Take a short walk after a meal to stimulate digestion and prevent gas formation.

• Eat slowly to reduce the amount of air you swallow, which can contribute to bloating.

• Maintain good posture while eating to avoid putting unnecessary pressure on your abdomen.

• Gently massage your abdomen in a circular motion to help move trapped gases and promote digestion.

• Pay attention to foods that seem to trigger your bloating and remove them from your diet.

A combination of natural remedies, yogasans, warm compress, and these lifestyle changes can definitely help you get rid of bloating. Remember to try different methods, listen to your body, and find out what works best for you to bring relief from bloating. Namaskar!
