So! I was in a blissfully quiet, dimly lit room today doing Yoga. It was a really lovely setting: soft flute music was playing, candles were lit, it was raining outside...
...and then we went into locust pose and I belched so loudly that even the instructor laughed. I now know what people mean when they say they want to crawl under a rock and die! LOL :)
I had eaten just a little too soon before going to class so I could feel that there was a burp trapped under some food in my tummy. I kept trying to get it out, but when I burped only food would come up into my throat.
I have seen a lot of questions on this site about people feeling like they have 'trapped burps', maybe this will help. I have never had such a cathartic burp in my life!
Good luck everyone! I hope this can help someone else.
