[QUOTE=wellbeingdawn;25649]Hi
I have recently had surgery to remove my gall bladder (4 weeks ago) and I am not sure if its ok to get back to yoga yet.
My doctor said I should be ok, but I am still having some pain, so I guess I should listen to my body.
Has anyone else had experience of getting back into a daily yoga practice after surgery?
Would welcome any tips.
Thanks

My advice would be to wait for 6 weeks. The reason is simple: scarring takes exactly 29-30 days on an average individual with a good nutritional state. That takes exactly four weeks. Tissue remodeling takes 15 days (two weeks). You would have no problem on simple exercises, but some asanas
require an increase in intra-abdominal pressure and could (not very likely after 4 weeks but there is still a little chance) make some damage.
MEditate for a cuple of weeks and come back renewed afterward hehehehe
