The subject of enemas and colonics with respect to natural health and wellness is unavoidable. I hesitate to call this a technology, but actually it is nothing more than that. This practice goes back thousands of years and people used to take hollowed out vegetable gourds from nature and fill them with water and do what they do nowadays with rubber enema bags and colonic machines.
Although it can be a bit scary and daunting at first, many people who have done this will attest that the results can be very pleasing, and can include a feeling of being cleaned out, and may even include the feeling of a clearer head, nose and throat (which are all connected to the colon). The feeling of this aquatic stimulation may feel good and it can become something you may want to repeat and do routinely. It also appears to help in many cases reverse many years of putting things into the gut that can turn into a sticky, slimy glue and which can be hard to get off the intestinal wall without extra assistance.
Essentially what you do is put a gallon or so (sometimes more, sometimes less) of clean, pure water into the opposite end of your body that you normally put water into. You do this by hanging an enema bag onto something, like a shower rack, and then position yourself on your hands and knees below it. Some people recommend warm water but I find that room temperature water is agreeable enough to the gut. You take the lubricated tip of the device’s hose and then press the control valve to allow water to start flowing from the hose using the power of gravity into your body. After the deed is done, you attempt to let the water absorb, slosh around, and soak into the colon wall.
It is questionable whether water makes it all the way through the colon and into the small intestine, which is one of the drawbacks of enemas as opposed to other forms of intestinal cleansing, as referenced in another chapter whereby you can take a supplement that will clean out the entirety of the gut including the small intestine. The enema or colonic (which is where it gets the name) mainly targets the colon AKA the large intestine.
Water is referred to as the universal solvent. Indeed, if something is messy, you would typically use water to get it cleaned up and remove some of the hardened gunk that is stuck to a surface. And so, after the water is inserted into your colon, you can change positions, lean to one side or another, lie on your side or back, or even move around a bit or massage your abdomen. This can help the water soak into certain areas into which it may not abundantly make its way into when you normally pour water down your esophagus.
Eventually, and maybe immediately, you will feel the need to rush to the commode and move your bowels. This may happen multiple times over the span of the following hour or so. The more experienced that you get, and the more cleaned out your colon gets, the longer you should be able to go holding in the water before releasing. When this happens, you might notice materials (without getting too graphic) that come out of you which don’t normally come out during a regular bowel movement. This indicates that you may be removing hardened slime and gunk off of your colon wall, and the enema is doing its job.
Some people might cringe at the prospect of inserting a thin lubricated tube into the rectum and flowing water into the colon, and I can’t really blame you. Doing this type of activity is not something I had ever really tried before doing an enema, and at first I was reticent. However, it might sound strange but after giving it a try I have to admit the insertion really isn’t that bad at all. The flow of water coming in may be a bit overwhelming, because a gallon enema bag can empty out within about 60 seconds or so. You can control the flow by activating and releasing the stop valve at the end of the hose, thereby allowing the flow of water to happen in stages, instead of all at once. This can help decrease the urge to run to the commode once the colon initially fills up with water, if you can fill it up more slowly and give the water time to spread around.
Water is the substance of choice for enemas, but there are other ingredients that you could consider, such as a water solution combined with lemon juice, water with herbal formulas or probiotics mixed in, coconut water, cucumber juice, or certain herbal teas. Use your own intuition and use caution and be careful but don’t be paralyzed with fear — after all, you have most likely been putting a lot of offensive ingredients into your colon for a long time now. The large intestine is designed to be able to tolerate a large variety of ingredients.
I would absolutely avoid coffee enemas or putting any caffeine into the colon because in my opinion this is too overstimulating and can risk exhausting the nerves.
My personal favorite which I like even much more than plain water is a certain tea that I recommend elsewhere which you can find here:
Like many methods and therapies referenced within Rapid Regeneration, enemas is one that is not without its downsides. Overall, I believe it to be far enough in the natural realm to include as something virtually everybody should consider doing at some point and/or regularly to get cleaned out and stay cleaned out.
But, doing an enema or colonic may flush out some of the beneficial bacteria that reside in the colon. And so if you are doing enemas routinely, you might consider taking additional supplemental probiotics or especially eating foods that are high in beneficial bacteria to repopulate the gut. Also, an enema might be considered overstimulating and so some might object that it is not the most natural way to clean out the colon.
Ultimately, I find it is quite a useful tool and for somebody who has never done one, you might even consider doing several per week for a month or so to really get your gut cleaned out. After this is accomplished, somebody might still consider doing an enema several times per year for maintenance, or as needed. An enema also has a sort of stimulative effect to move the bowels, so if somebody is suffering from constipation this could also help with that in particular.
The supplies needed to give yourself an enema are no more than $10 or $20 and this is a technology accessible to virtually all. For somebody who wants the premium experience and a little bit of outside assistance, he or she might consider doing a colonic where instead of doing this to yourself a professional who does this all day long can insert some water into your rectum.
