Throughout the 16 years of participating in intimate conversations with thousands of clients regarding this  “taboo” subject, the thing I recall first is how often we’ve laughed together over this silly subject and yet the degree of secrecy we enshroud it  with.  I predict that when the lid blows off this secrecy thing and people feel free to discuss it (at appropriate times, of course), there will be an enormous volume of poop jokes and laughter that you have never before  been able to express or experience.  Even people who refuse to try a colonic will benefit when they giggle:  (at least their belly gets a little shaking and loosening that way!)

You want to laugh, get a colonic!  Not many therapeutic approaches exist where you relax, release and observe your poop, feel exhilarated as it releases and laugh at the humanity of it all.  It is a win-win formula!!   Choose your therapist wisely!

There have been several other concerned parents over the years who  dared believe that a child can not only benefit healthwise, but enjoy a cleansing session such as colon hydrotherapy can offer.

proved to be an added benefit not only to the surgeon who performed the operation but my client, and his rapid recovery.  Sam was walking the four mile trail in the park 2 days later!  Of course, a person already healthy and living an active lifestyle would expect a quick recovery but #1-his colon was cleansed from buildup and #2 -his body more hydrated from the colonic therapy.  These two additions to his physical state added positive leverage to his body’s healing potential.

The human body is designed to work in perfection.  But think of all the crazy ways we interfere with what the body is trying to do.  We overeat, we eat things that should be “glowing” from the chemical content in them, we don’t chew our food (or whatever you call it) and we combine all types of food groups at the same meal to cause uproarious digestion.  Then, when sensations down there start to get out of control, we sart dumping down gas-x products, laxatives, run to the gym to slim down thinking it’s all fat in there, and drink lots of caffeine to keep us going because we’re feeling extremely lethargic. 

Does anyone relate to that?  These happen to be the actions you should NOT take when you feel bloated.  Here’s that story spelled backwards:

1. Do not overeat, even if it tastes good.  Place your hand next to your plate of food and roll the fingers into a fist.  The fist is relatively similar to the size of your stomach. Ask yourself if the quantity of food appears to overfill the stomach.

2. How much of that meal is processed food?  (Hello, touched by man and man-u-facturing is what causes food to “glow!!)  Keep the preservatives and pesticides, food coloring and artificial vitamins off your plate and out of your body!

3. Are you aware that your food needs to be kept in the mouth, not only to be chewed or masticated thoroughly, but so it will become drenched with saliva , which is rich in digestive enzymes which will prepare it to break down easier as it goes down the chute?

4.  Try not to run to the medicine cabinet for other chemicals or even herbs which., if ingested at the wrong time, can cause your bloated abdomen to feel and look worse. Once you swallow them, they’re in there for a long, long time!!

5.  Even though you might think that a good workout will help work it out, it will probably do more harm than good when you are feeling distended or bloated.  The digestive juices are trying to work within a pretty bleak environmnet and you might be dehydrated in there already.  A strenuous workout can cause issues at this time. 

6. Drinking caffeine will not help the root of the problem, but just might increase your blood pressure because you have so many trapped gasses in the abdomen, which is where we absorb into the bloodstream.  You feel lethargic, slow down your activities.  

If you could harness an income through holistic or alternative therapies and to be your own boss.

A certain amount of effort and study in a relatively short period of time – approximately 100 hours would put you in a position to get started.

A career that allows you to be in service to others.

Something that would contribute dramatically to the health of your clients.

While also keeping you more in touch with your personal health than you  ever have been able to before.

A field which speaks to your spiritual side while interacting in a realistic world of business, taxes, mortgages, etc., but with manageable stress.

One which gives you an opportunity to learn something new every day, and will unequivocally relate to the Rules of the Universe.

You probably are now desiring to reinvent yourself and enter the field of Colon Hydrotherapy with the Earth Spring School.

Colonic therapy is becoming very popular and helping many individuals reach their health goals.  I recently branched out my business and formed the Earth Spring School for Colon Hydrotherapy.  I can apprentice, train and certify the right people who feel this type of work interests them.  Why not begin your new career now?

WHY??

I threw my immune system into overload when I added other activities on top of my normal daily routine.

1. Throwing a few additional dinner parties because I want to visit with…. Family and Friends.

2. I rushed around to the stores picking up small gifts for…. Family and Friends!

3. There was many additional trips to the supermarket to make all of the above happen.

4. I increased my exposure to colds & flu….Now my liver is angry.

5. And the real biggie is that I increased consumption of spicy food, sweets and alcohol.

To sum it all up, I compromised my health while trying to “Live it up” through the Holiday season and that just doesn’t make sense!

So here’s the first part of my plan:

“Clean it Up”

• Get rid of toxic buildup and hydrate my system…. have a colonic.. or two!
• I threw out the stale holiday cakes, cookies and candy that were clogging my countertops.
• It was time to empty the refrigerator of leftovers – the cooked, processed, dead and unenlivened food….This causes my body to retain acid wastes.
• For a few nights, I managed several hot soaks in nutrient rich bathwater…..Seasalts and seaweeds are great detoxifiers and help the skin to “glow”.

The second part of my plan is to “REBUILD”.

• Put the body into deliberate motion such as walking, running, yoga, swimming, rebounding…..This will kick up the circulation, and help to clear the respiratory organs.
• Drink 5 – 8 glasses of healthy water with the juice of fresh squeezed lemon….This is very alkalizing.
• Get fresh air to my lungs.
• Replenish the fruit and vegetable bins in my refrigerator….Don’t forget the fresh garlic and ginger root to discourage parasites and help with digestive secretions!
• Juice some of those veggies in combos such as cucumber, kale, celery and carrot….This boosts internal flushing and rebuilding of nutrients flowing to the blood. I enjoy drinking these juiced veggies as a meal or before a meal.
• Kick up the fiber intake… I suggest eating more raw fruits and vegetables and/or adding powder blended from dehydrated fruits, grains, berries, barks, leaves and some helpful herbs. Mixed in fruit juice before breakfast will assist the peristalsis.
• PROBIOTICS!!!!!!!!!!……These guys work for you by cleaning up the walls of your intestines, helps the body to manufacture B vitamins and neurotransmitters for your brain health, and to have more efficient uptake of nutrients into your blood.
• Digestive Enzymes…..If you eat primarily cooked food, the enzymes have been cooked out and this leaves your body in a state of bankruptcy. They are essential to digestion and absorption.
• Get proper rest. (Whew! I’m pooped)!

Now I not only have a plan, I’ve cleaned my kitchen! The body is next, and all the steps I’ve outlined will cover the respiratory, digestive, circulatory, immune, muscular, skeletal and pulmonary systems of the body. I know implementing this plan for the most of 09 will see me grandly to the next holiday season!

Most of us unknowingly are eating our way to digestive problems due to the contaminants hidden in our food, the beverages we drink  and both, over the counter and prescriptive drugs that we take.

Constant constipation and other conditions such as gassiness and bloating may be indicators of the build up of toxins stemming from the “American diet”.  We discover, through the clients’ sessions, that the symptoms lessen or disappear because we are removing the fecal impactions which have been lodged in “pockets” of the colon.  It’s there to see as the client is eliminating the matter from the colon, and this visual aid may be even more important than the cleaning and toning which is taking place.

Most clients are shocked at the volume their body has been accumulating.  These waste products are comprised of metabolic wastes from the process of both digestion and other soluble and insoluble particles from food.   Additives such as chemical fertilizers, preservatives, pesticides, food coloring, chemically derived “vitamins”, and gluten from wheat pastes that are contained in the over processed food we eat can cause havoc in our bodies.

Constipation, diahrrea, gas and bloating may be a symptom of some other, more dangerous condition manifesting within us from the constant ingestion of these toxic substances.  Colonic cleansing may help with handling some of the overload of toxins and thereby giving the body a chance to rest.

But think about it! You are swallowing a myriad of ingredients—herbal, chemical, all largely reactive. And how do they get to your colon to clean it out when the colon is situated at the end of a 25-30 ft. tract consisting of digestive organs and tubes? What happens… to your body through the journey of those Pills??

Well, these herbs and chemicals travel from your mouth to enter your stomach, where strong acid mixes with them, and are then released into your small intestine (which is full of 22 ft. worth of food trying to be digested and broken down into nutrients). Finally, whatever wastes the “cleansing” pills have shoved along, is dumped into the colon. If you have not been moving your bowels 2 – 3 times a day previous to taking this cleansing stuff, you have impactions in your colon.

This particular client chose her 7 day cleanse precisely because she was suffering with irregularity, and believed that this regiment would “cure” her. And now, thanks to the pills, the neighboring organs have wastes wanting to dynamite through and there’s no open pathway to let it out!! It’s like a traffic accident on a major highway at commuting time where cars pile up standing still for miles and miles. No one is getting through!

This result can be disastrous for many individuals. Constipation, bloating and gas is increased rather than relieved, and many more toxins are forced into the bloodstream causing other harmful bodily reactions, too numerous to mention here. This is not a healthy outcome!

If colon hydrotherapy was utilized and the colon has been gently hydrated, cleansed and massaged for a few sessions the individual will feel better and the products taken by mouth after a few colonic sessions will provide a far more effective outcome!

So join in, tell your friends and be part of a conversation regarding a topic that is, in my opinion, the most important subject of your life: Your wellness.
