After performing therapeutic massages for over 10 years now, I always wondered why all the clients who did yoga stretches had hormone imbalance, lower back issues, hot flashes, weak ankles, fertility issues, thyroid issues, anxiety, frequent neck tightness and BELLY BLOAT!

Belly Bloat: I’m referring to muscular disorders not merely gut issues. Belly bloat is not referring to chronic gas, but to the lack of strength in these muscles: obliques and rectus abdominal. Specifically the popping out of the belly button which creates a distastis recti causing a weakness in the solar plexus area (below sternum). This causes herniation creating aggressive lower back issues. It promotes all kinds of disconnections from lumbar and tail bone, shutting off lower pudendal nerve aka the result of “pelvic floor issues.”

In other words, Yoga does not create an hour glass figure. Yoga creates a compression on your lateral line, causing your Thyroid to disappear into your neck.

Look up belly breathing how it displaces the abdomen what’s called the “abdomen containment” where all organs are misplaced. Yogi and yoga gurus want their organs to regress out of place because they’re trying to get to nirvana or the “happy place” which is misleading as it shuts off our Vagus nerve shifting our bodies to “Fight or Flight.” This leads to a lack of digestion, lack of reproduction and lack of elimination. These designed poses turn off body function so they can go into a transcendental state. That’s the whole purpose of it. It’s how they get to mediation or “white space” as they call it, where they can feel god like.
