The act of sitting on one's heel in an effort to prevent shitting one's pants.
Heeling refers to the
allowance of gas to pass through while keeping the contents of one's colon from being expelled until such a time that a bathroom can be found. Heeling can be paired with the
pretense of tying one's shoes to keep passersby from suspecting something is wrong.

John was
heeling in his cubicle waiting for the opportune time to run to the restroom for some much needed relief.
