creating hyper- or hypoactivity of this system. This then will have a residual
effect upon the whole body in numerous ways including nerve disorders,
severe constipation, diarrhea, bloating, edema, and acidosis.
HOW TO DO AN ENEMA
1. Purchase an enema-bag / “hot water bottle” combination from a
pharmacy.
2. Fill the bag with 1/2 quart to 2 quarts of skin temperature water or herb-
water mixture. Always use skin temperature water no matter what you
mix it with.
3. Hang the hot water bottle at least two feet above you.
4. Lay on your left side as you start your enema.
5. Use a healing herbal salve to lubricate the tip for easy insertion.
6. Let the water (or herbal mixture) flow slowly into your colon; stopping
the flow periodically while you rest and do some deep breathing.
7. After a few minutes, move from your left side to lying on your back, and
continue to let the water flow into your colon; then turn over to your
right side.
8. You may wish to massage the region of your colon as it is being filled
with the mixture. This will help loosen impacted “plaque” for removal.
9. Retain this water (mixture) somewhat, then allow elimination.
10. Repeat until the bag/hot water bottle is empty.Use enemas wisely and when needed. There is no need to over use them.
A diet of raw fruits and vegetables along with a good intestinal rejuvenator
will work much better in the long run at reestablishing the health of the GI
tract.
Healing Clay
A fourth method of cleansing the bowels involves the use of clays. These are
not used as much in America as in Europe. In many countries, like Portugal,
health professionals use clay packs over the abdomen to accomplish the same
results we get with colonics. The late Dr. John Christopher has a great
intestinal powder (Intestinal Corrective #2®) that includes bentonite clay and
charcoal. This has a highly cleansing and absorbing effect within the
intestines. This formula is beneficial in cases of irritable bowel syndrome and
with uncontrolled diarrhea.
