Visceral Fascia Release Matters
Your internal organs don’t just “sit” inside you — they’re suspended and supported by layers of fascia that connect to your spine, ribs, diaphragm, and even your limbs.
When this visceral fascia becomes tight or restricted (from stress, inflammation, posture, or old injuries), it can limit your breathing, affect digestion, alter circulation, and even trigger chronic pain far from the source(and vice versa).
Today’s in MSA we went through this gentle visceral fascia release works like “freeing the silken threads” that hold your organs — restoring their natural mobility, improving blood and lymph flow, calming your nervous system, and helping your body communicate more freely from the inside out.
This is one of the most direct ways to nurture both your internal health and your emotional balance. (But it could also bring you a cascade of emotional release so please do be gentle)
Mini Practice You Can Try — Medicine Ball Diaphragm Release
- Find a ball that’s about the size of a soccer ball or smaller. There is no best tool that works best because our situation and need would be very different, but you choose from as tiny as a tennis ball but prop it up with a yoga block or some books, or substitute with a basketball from your neighbour's kids next door, or even a tightly rolled blanket wrapped in a bag(this is what one of my past student did, she says it worked perfectly).
- Lie face-down with the ball positioned just below your breastbone, in the soft space above your belly button (avoid your ribs and pelvis directly).
- Let your upper body rest on the ball, relaxing your shoulders and arms.
- Take slow, deep breaths into your belly, feeling the ball gently press into you on the inhale and release on the exhale.
- Stay for 1–2 minutes, moving gently if needed to avoid discomfort.
Tip: Do this on an empty stomach for best comfort.
Start gently — less pressure is often more effective for deep release.
