I am starting Yoga this week and have just been reliabally informed it makes you fart a lot!

However getting my feet more closer behind my ears may be a good thing

Hi Shelley,

Yes, my experience of yoga is that it does make you fart. I've been doing yoga for a few years and I really feel the health benefits, farting aside. You'll be able to get into all sorts of positions which in this business, is one of the added bonuses!

I would say it does make you fart; that kind of position would loosen any trapped wind!

Indeedy yes but farting is the least of your worries



Embarrassing Yoga Questions Here!
1. I always seem to be farting in yoga class. Is there anything I can do?
Passing gas while practicing yoga is actually very common (prenatal yoga classes are the worst!). You're moving your body in ways that will stir up your guts, which is a good thing. We're all adults here, and farting is perfectly natural. I say, gauge the mood of the class and act accordingly--just like you would at, say, a cocktail party. If the class is light-hearted and casual, you might humorously acknowledge your emission. If the teacher and students are dead serious, pretend that nothing untoward has occurred. And maybe think about skipping those beans at lunch next time.

Is your yoga going to be in that 37.5 degrees C conditions I here some use?

Akin to exercising in a Sauna
