5. As someone who has struggled with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) for the past decade, I’ve been eager to experiment with this exercise. I experience an array of unpleasant sensations in my gut most days. I’ve completed the exercise four times now. When I do it before bed, I fall asleep within the first five minutes, and wake back up towards the end of the exercise. I’m not sure if this is a freeze state, or if my digestive system is simply needing the rest? When I do it in the morning, I’m able to stay awake, but haven’t noticed an increase in sensations or movement in the gut. If anything, I feel less connected to my gut during the exercise, as if there is a void of sensation. I wonder if there is a way that I can refine this exercise, so that my gut experiences more ease and flow?

4. I had spasms during this exercise. Now at night, if I place my hands on my body — on my stomach, anywhere on hips or pelvis, or my chest, then I spasm over and over from that body part, until I take my hands off. So I can’t touch my body now? I’m wondering what this means, and if I need to be doing anything?

2. I have constipation and I wanted to know if the meditation that Elinor did, taking us through the whole digestive system, is the reason I went to the bathroom right after? Is that what made me poop? If so, I might have to try that one again.

1. I really enjoyed this practice, and slowing down. I am so used to being in high activation, I find that even when I do a practice and feel calm, I jump back into my usual habits, which lead to reactivation, such as spending time online, or ‘doing’ one thing or another. It’s like I can’t stay in stillness for long. How can I change this way of being?
