That's most interesting. I have my doubts about it being so good one could stop their meds completely unless they were on a very low dose to begin with, but you never know.

I used to do this pose just because it felt good...long before I ever took a yoga class or knew it was a yoga pose. It made you feel like you were upside down without actually being so. Besides, it was how we used to do an exercise popular years ago where you got into that position then pretended like you were peddling a bicycle. The one I liked in the last class I took was called, I think, wall walking, scooting your posterior up to the wall as far as you can then slowly swinging the legs up parallel to the wall. I think it's a relaxation pose.

I haven't done any yoga classes now for over 6 months due to being told not to for this medical reason or that so I'm anxious to get back into it. I KNOW it helps the IBS!!!
