There is an ideal among the yogis that, if we were truly in touch with our bodies, we would instinctively know what foods we needed to eat every time we felt hunger, and that if we are not clear about what we should eat, it would be better not to eat at all. Furthermore, the body and mind should be in a relaxed and pleasant state, without hurry or agitation: if we( are excited or upset, either physically or emotionally, we should not be eating. While eating, we should take time to really taste and savor each bite. After eating, there should be relaxed time to digest before we engage in activities that stimulate our systems. Tramadol belongs to the group of medicines called opioid analgesics. It acts in the central nervous system (CNS) to relieve pain.

When our digestion is strong, our body feels light and strong. We have plenty of energy. If there are no other complications, we sleep deeply and wake up feeling refreshed. Our skin color is good, our breath and body odor pleasant, and we have a high resistance to disease.
When our digestion is poor, we lack energy. Our sleep may be disturbed, so that we may feel tired even after a full night’s rest. We are likely to accumulate toxins. Our complexion may be pasty, and the odor of our body and breath unpleasant. We are more susceptible to disease and more liable to experience hypersensitivity, irritability, heaviness or dullness, or other manifestations of emotional instability.

We can usually assess the condition of our digestive system by looking at our stools after defecation. This is, of course, a somewhat sensitive topic in our society. However, if we can overcome our squeamishness, much can be learned about how our body is responding to the foods we are eating and the way we are eating them. Some things to look for are whether the stool is too hard and compacted, or too loose, whether it tends to sink or float, and the intensity of its odor. The healthiest stool is well formed, almost like the shape of our intestines, floats, and doesn’t have a very strong odor. This feedback is useful in deepening the process of self-reflection about what and how we eat, and how this contributes to our overall health and well-being.

When we suffer from digestive problems, we can help ourselves through the appropriate combination of lifestyle changes and Yoga practices. This may include changes in diet taking appropriate supplements and/or medicinal remedies, as well as following the therapeutic guidance of our health practitioners. And. although we cannot solve these conditions exclusively through Yoga practice, we can be sure that a carefully constructed practice of asanas and pranayama makes our whole system function more efficiently and in that way brings more balance into our system. Yoga therapy is not a substitute for medical attention. It is an aid to whatever else we may be doing under our own guidance or under the supervision of a professional.
Although the entire digestive system ideally functions as an integrated whole, problematic conditions can manifest in different organs. All of these conditions can be loosely grouped into two distinct categories: conditions of excess (hyper conditions) and conditions of deficiency (hypo conditions). The ancient yogis used the image of fire (agni) to understand the power of digestion. Following this theory, digestive disorders reflect some imbalance in this internal fire. In hyper functioning, the digestive fire is too strong; in hypo functioning, it is too weak If the fire is either too strong or too weak food is not properly broken down into its respective nutrients. As a consequence, the body does not receive the nourishment it needs to thrive and the undigested food becomes a source of toxicity in the body, weakening the system and creating the conditions for disease.
