Yoga for IBS

Posted on Jun 29th, 2006 by Maile : Simplicity Seeker Maile

A few weeks ago, I wrote to Heather, the creator of a newsletter for people with IBS, asking her to share with her readers my offer of free private yoga classes to get them started in a home practice.  She made the announcement in her newsletter on Tuesday, and the response has been wonderful. 

I've already schedule classes for several people in my area, and I've gotten emails from people all over the world thanking me for the offer, even though they can't take me up on it.  I've also gotten emails from yoga teachers asking for help working with students of theirs with IBS, and another teacher in my area asked me if I'd like to partner with her to put on a workshop. 

Many people with IBS suffer for years without ever finding help.  I've been fortunate to find yoga and also to find Heather.  If anyone reading has IBS and has not found her yet, I highly recommend reading the articles on her website.  It's made a huge difference in my life.

Malie-
Thank you so much for posting this and bringing it to my attention. I had no idea that there was anyone out there doing yoga for IBS. Brilliant!

I have found Qi Gong and mediation to help me deal with IBS, but am looking forward to checking out her yoga techniques.

Thank you!
Jacqui
