Who has never had a side stitch while jogging or a hike? Me, in any case it happened to me quite often. One day, my grandfather gave me a tip.
At first, I laughed (you'll see why), then I tried... I stopped laughing and kissed my darling grandpa for the good little thing he had just given me !
Yes, yes, I assure you. That's why I dared to laugh in the nose of this dear grandpa whom I loved so much. A pebble , but how?
- Lean forward with straight legs.
- Drop your body in a soft way.
- Exhale slowly fully.
- Breathe calmly for a good minute.
- Then, grab a pebble on the edge of the path where you are.
- Squeeze it as hard as possible in the hand that is on the side of the pain.
- Compress the painful area at the same time while breathing slowly.
Are you laughing too? Give it a try next time you have a side stitch, and come tell me in your comments if you're still laughing!
