They also say that this method brings the spine and intestine in a better position, which makes the passage of stool easier.
Although diet plays an important role in maintaining a healthy digestive system, proper bowel movements can also provide great relief.
Going to the toilet is such a daily activity of our life that we hardly think about it. Now, this being generic, it is highly unlikely to think of a better or a wrong way to execute it. But in this fast-paced life, people have started prioritizing their work over other basic activities and this serves as an invitation for a variety of health issues. Not using the toilet properly also leads to complications like constipation and many people suffer from it every day. Although diet plays an important role in maintaining a healthy digestive system, proper bowel movements can also provide great relief.
According to Dr. Balmukund Shastri, Secretary and Founder, SM Yoga Research Institute and Naturopathy Hospital India, sitting down to defecate is the best way to relieve yourself and this method has been used by countless Indians for centuries. Shastri said that going into the squat position for defecation puts a lot of pressure on the stomach which helps in making the bowel movement easier. They also say that this method brings the spine and intestine in a better position, which makes the passage of stool easier. On the other hand, Dr. Shastri claims that one has to exert more pressure to defecate while sitting on the western commode. The asana on the western asana does not bring the spine and intestine in the proper position and this leads to problems like constipation.
Shastri also warns that suffering from constipation for a long time can lead to serious complications like piles, anal fistula and anal cancer. When we apply excessive pressure while doing dosha during constipation, people start bleeding in their stool and even swelling near the anus.
He said that the correct way to use the western posture is to place a small stool under your feet. According to him, the stool should be high enough that your feet come on high. Keeping the head on the back of the palm, the elbows should also be kept on the knees. This method will ensure that you don’t have to apply too much pressure while defecating.
