Yoga can be very beneficial in relieving bowel troubles. As a first line of defense, it might be useful to focus asanas on the mid-section. Try gentle forward bends to warm up the area and then proceed to spinal twists to massage the mid-section area. Stretch out your mid-section with upward facing dogs, followed by downward facing dogs. Finally,finish up with some spinal massages – wrap your arms around your knees and rock back and forth on your mat.  When you have done your series of asanas, do not forget to relax on your mat and finish up your practice with meditation. Also adding some of the elements of a yogic lifestyle may help with your bowel difficulties. One of the key elements of the yogic lifestyle is strict vegetarianism.  Sometimes the meat we eat and cause our bowels to word harder than normal, sometimes causing bowel troubles. A strict yogic diet of fruits and vegetables, even for a short period of time,can clear your bowels and relieve you of your troubles.

However,if your practice yoga,particularly asanas which focus on your mid-section and you receive no relief,it is suggested you see a doctor,as your problem may not be one that can be solved with yoga or diet changes.
