Constipation Self-Care
Constipation can be naturally resolved, so you feel more relaxed on the inside and out.
Don’t Eat Too Soon - it takes your stomach four hours to fully empty. Let it finish one job before starting the next!
Eat Fibrous Foods - Consume more foods that are rich in fiber. The following are excellent foods to soften bowel movements:
Vegetables: Avocado, dandelion greens, kale, onions, leafy greens.
Fruit: Blackberries, blueberries, cantaloupe, coconut, dates, figs, grapes (with seeds), plums, prunes, raisins (seeded)
Stay Hydrated - when we’re dehydrated, our body takes water from the colon to hydrate other organs, reducing the water available for forming and passing stools. Consuming a lot of fiber without water can actually worsen constipation. Drink 1 gallon of spring water every day.
Drink Warm Liquids - tea or hot water with ginger are great for stimulating digestion.
Eliminate Processed Foods - they contain no fiber and slow the digestive process like glue.
Exercise - physical movement stimulates intestinal muscles, encouraging your digestive system’s natural activity. Walking, jogging, swimming, stretching, yoga, and dancing are light exercises that increase your metabolism and bowel motility.
In yoga, the cat pose, downward-facing dog, and backbends are excellent movements for stretching your abdomen and massaging internal organs to stimulate digestion. Jumping on a trampoline stimulates the lymphatic system (responsible for cleaning and removing waste from the body), which drains into the gut.
Relax - Stress can prevent both digestion and healthy bowel movements. Find ways to unwind, like meditation, walks in nature, or running yourself a hot bath. Warmth helps to relax muscles, reduces the stress hormone cortisol (too much can cause digestive problems), and encourages natural elimination.
Keep Pushing Through
Every year, Americans spend $800 million on laxatives to try and resolve constipation. Unfortunately, laxatives make the bowel lazy and don't address the real issue; figs full of fiber will get your bowel moving naturally, and without the side effects.
Remember If you want natural relief from constipation eat more fiber like (hemp, Kale), so you can relax and let go, and go. Go walking out in nature which calms the mind and body, relieving muscle tension, relaxing your digestive system reducing inflammation. Don’t let constipation slow you down, let hemp help you get going!
“I don’t care whether you're Chinese, Arab, or what: if you eat something natural, you're going to be healed.” - Dr. Sebi.
Our bodies have a remarkable capacity for healing and self-regeneration - when we provide them with the right components. Getting your bowel movements back to normal is a big relief, and you can fully let go. What might you be holding onto …people ..places … things? Let go!
