Step 1: A posture that relaxes the colon
- Lie on your back.
- Pull your knees toward your abdomen (not your chest).
- Hug them gently and rock side to side.
- Breathe slowly, letting your belly rise.
- This position massages the colon and often helps trapped gas escape.
Step 2: A calming herbal infusion
Boil one cup of water, turn off the heat, then add:
- 1 tablespoon mint or
- 1 tablespoon chamomile (or both)
Cover for 5–10 minutes, strain, and drink warm—no sugar.
Heat relaxes the intestines; these herbs reduce spasms. Seek medical care if pain persists, vomiting or fever appears, or you can’t pass stool or gas.
