With the emphasis on GERD being a component of Bronchiectasis, the bending in question is bending so far that the esophagus is below the stomach - like bending to pick paper off the floor. Kneeling and leaning forward alleviates that concern. And it is better for the body.
My ID doctor is more concerned about what one might be inhaling from the soil - like more NTM and other pathogens.
That is why he says a conditional "yes" - with a mask.
