Bellyee

The Bellyee is a shaped, form fitting stretchy tube that is worn around the waist/hips. It looks like the bottom of a t-shirt but functions as a kidney warmer and core support, which in turn keeps your organs and body functioning at optimum level

About the Bellyee

WARMTH ~ IMPORTANT FOR HEALTHY KIDNEY FUNCTION!
“The kidneys are the creeks, mountain streams and rivers of our being. They give us our ability to be like a young person: flexible and fluid in body, mind and spirit.” On a physical level, healthy kidneys act like a filter to make sure the right amount of wastes and fluids are removed, they keep the proper balance of salts and acids in the body and produce hormones. Every day our kidneys perform an essential job of filtering 200 litres of blood, to remove about 2 litres of waste products and unneeded water. In Traditional Chinese medicine, the kidneys are seen as the root and foundation of the body and are the foundation of all yin and yang qualities in the body. Philosophically speaking Qi (pronounced “Ch’I”, in China, “Ki” in Japan and known as “Prana” in India), the vital life force, is inseparable from life itself. This universal energy Qi, is manifested as both Yin: cold, dark and “interior,” and Yang: warm, light, and “exterior”, (in the Yogic system "Ha" and "Tha" respectively "cold" and "hot" hence Hatha Yoga). The balance between them is dynamic, like exhalation in inhalation; as one subsides the other gains strength. Then the cycle repeats itself. All the internal organs of the body are subject to this oscillation. In Traditional Chinese medicine, the kidneys (and the bladder) are the organ systems that represent the water element- described as the ‘palace of Fire and Water’ as they provide energy and warmth to the whole body. As a Doula working long hours and often in the middle of the night it is imperative that we keep ourselves healthy and in balance. The bellyee is great when working for long hours in air conditioning so are great in your Doula bag all year round.

Testimonials-

Mary from Bondi:
" I have always suffered from the cold feeling you get when T-shirts are too short and the Bellyee provides so much warmth without creating bulk so I can wear it as part of my outfit or hidden underneath...I love it!"

Karen from Lane Cove:
"I work in air conditioning, and I find the Bellyee great because sometimes it gets really cold inside and I can slip my Bellyee on to keep my back covered whilst Im sitting and bending during the day and slip it into my handbag when I leave to go outside into the heat...."

Andrea from Wentworth Falls:
"By 26 weeks I began using the Bellyee and found it had many positive benefits, especially when carrying twins! It helped me become more aware of my posture and therefore improve it; keep my kidneys warm through winter; and support my heavy, low-sitting belly preventing backpain and waddling. The organic material is gentle on sensitive or irritated stretching skin and comes in natural, earthy tones. I recommend getting a few sizes to reward yourself with complete support as your body changes."
