Did you know that about 70% of our bodies immune defense is contained in the intestines? Did you know that a majority of our body’s blood mass acummulates in the intestines? Did you know that there are more nerve endings in our intesintes than in our spinal column? Sounds like a good reason to trust your gut eh? But did you also know that we can hold upwards of 30 pounds of undigested food in our intestines, which becomes toxic over time. Those toxins absorb into the blood stream and effect evry system of the body. Our organs become stiff, we can feel bloated and gain weight as well as experience back pain, lack of energy, constipation, dry mouth and cold hands and feet. Healing your intestines is a main focus for beginners of Dahn Yoga.
