Again, everyone is different. If you exercise, don't do it right after eating. Walking after a meal is good to keep things moving, yoga I feel is also beneficial. Swimming I personally find seems to make me feel better, rollerblading, bike riding. Really depends on the person and the severity of their GP

As tolerated... Some people can exercise, some can't leave the fetal position. If you can, stretch lots, go for short walks to stimulate the GI tract and practice meditation with deep breathing to stimulate the vagus nerve.
