Benefits of Fasting and Cleansing
1. Fasting initiates rapid weight loss with little or no hunger. Most people are surprised at how little desire for food they have while fasting.
2. Fasting promotes detoxification. As the body breaks down its fat reserves, it mobilizes and eliminates stored toxins.
3. Fasting gives the digestive system a much-needed rest. After fasting, both digestion and elimination are invigorated.
4. Fasting promotes the resolution of inflammatory processes, such as in rheumatoid arthritis.
5. Fasting quiets allergic reactions, including asthma and hay fever.
6. Fasting promotes the drying up of abnormal fluid accumulations, such as edema in the ankles and legs and swelling in the abdomen.
7. Fasting corrects high blood pressure without drugs. Fasting will normalize blood pressure in the vast majority of cases, the blood pressure will remain low after the fast, if the person follows a health-supporting diet and lifestyle.
8. Fasting makes it easy to overcome bad habits and addictions. Many people have overcome tobacco and alcohol addictions by fasting, and even drug addictions. Fasting rapidly dissipates the craving for nicotine, alcohol, caffeine and other drugs.
9. Fasting clears the skin and whitens the eyes. It is common to see skin eruptions clear while fasting, and the whites of the eyes never look so clear and bright as they do after fasting.
10. Fasting restores taste appreciation for wholesome natural foods. People say that their taste buds come alive after fasting and that food never tasted so good.
11. Fasting is the perfect gateway to a healthful diet and lifestyle. Going on a fast gives you the motivation and enthusiasm to make a fresh start.
Colonic Irrigation using the gravitational method is an internal bath that helps
cleanse the Colon of Poisons, Gas, and Accumulated Fecal Matter. Unlike an
ENEMA, it does not involve the retention of water. There is NO discomfort, NO internal pressure, just a steady gentle flow in and out of the Colon. At the same time, an Abdominal Massage is given to stimulate the Colon to recover its natural Shape, Tone, and Peristaltic Wave Action. No other system can equal this process.
Benefits
of Colonic Irrigation
1. It has a cleansing, antiseptic, and solvent action on the intestines, whereby material, impacted fecal matter, excess mucous, and even pus and infected tissues are removed from the colon.
2. Colonic Irrigation also increases the water level and diuretic action. The water is absorbed, and this increases the volume of the blood. Circulation is thereby increased, resulting in greater bathing of the individual cells, this dilutes toxins and flushes them out: relieves uremia (symptoms- nausea, vomiting, dizziness, convulsion, dimness of vision and coma) and toxemia (spread of bacterial toxin by the bloodstream, marked by fever, diarrhea, vomiting, quickened or depressed pulse and respiration, prostration), increases the elimination through both kidneys and skin as well as bowels. This generally assists the cardiovascular and circulatory systems to be more efficient.
3. Many people are overweight. Are you? Some patients have eliminated as much as 10 to 25 pounds just from getting their lower gastro- intestinal tract cleaned out.
4. Colonic Irrigation is very effective in removing parasites from the colon.
What
is Colonic Irrigation ?
A Colonic Irrigation using the gravitational method is an internal bath that helps
cleanse the Colon of Poisons, Gas, and Accumulated Fecal Matter. Unlike an
ENEMA, it does not involve the retention of water. There is NO discomfort, NO internal pressure, just a steady gentle flow in and out of the Colon. At the same time, an Abdominal Massage is given to stimulate the Colon to recover its natural Shape, Tone, and Peristaltic Wave Action. No other system can equal this process.
How is a Colonic Administered ?
A person receiving the Colonic lies on a Special Colema-Board which is about 32"42" below the Controlled water flow. A Sterilized Speculum is gently inserted in the
Rectum (by yourself). Water flow, which is under the control of the person receiving the
Colonic, flows into the Colon via a small water tube or specula, then out and around the specula carrying with it Impacted Feces and Mucous. As the water flows out of the Colon
you gently Massage your Abdomen to help the Colon release its contents. It is possible to see this Expelled Waste Matter in the catch basin at the end of the process.
You will perform your Colonic by yourself in the privacy of your
room (bath room). The Colonic process takes about 30 to 40 minutes.
How Many Colonics will you need ?
The number of treatments required always varies with the individual and her/his prevailing condition. Often the waste is so hard and well loaded in the Colon that it may take a series of seven Colonics to sufficiently soften and loosen this Accumulated Fecal Material. Some people may not have startling results for the first few treatments. That is why a series of at least three treatments is recommended as well as advisable.
You will be given instructions for proper exercise and diet of Non-Mucous producing foods. Fresh fruits, Vegetables and certain Herbs are suggested to help loosen and dissolve accumulated fecal matter. The suggested series of treatments would be two Colonics per week for seven weeks. Once the Colon is clean, it is advisable to have a Colonic quarterly during the following year. An easy way to remember is to have a Colonic at the changing of the Seasons when diet and exercise patterns change. You should have a Colonic before, during, and after any FASTING ACTIVITY to hasten removal of Toxic waste and it would also be beneficial during the cold and flu season.
What are the Benefits ?
Colonics offer relief from a variety of disturbances by cleansing the Colon of Impacted and Putrefactive Fecal Matter. Fatigue, Gas, Headaches, Irritability, Skin Problems, Cold Hands and Feet, Lethargy are among the problems people have found relieved by Colon Cleansing. Constipation, of course, is another as well as Chronic Diarrhea. Your sense of well-being is often dramatically improved with the Colonic Process or Colon Cleansing. You feel lighter, more energetic. The body can again assimilate food in the Colon and better defend itself against disease. Natural Peristalsis, Tone and Regularity are restored and many Serious Diseases may be averted through this gentle, sterile, scientific technique. Colonics are a key factor in the restoration of the body's natural balance or what we call good health.
Are there Side Effects ?
There are no side effects. It is not uncommon however, for some people to start to feel like they have a cold or headache after a Colonic. Toxins which have been lying dormant in the Colon are now being flushed out and a small amount may be Re-Absorbed into the body's system. This healing crisis passes quickly and the person will realize a feeling of well-being with further treatments.
Will Colonics Damage Normal Intestinal
Flora ?
The normal intestinal flora will NOT be disturbed. One of the functions of the first half of the Colon is to gather the Intestinal Flora needed for the Colon. When the accumulation of feces in the bowel leads to Fecal Encrustation, it is difficult for the Colon to function normally and the glands in this lining cannot produce the necessary Intestinal Flora. The resulting lack of lubrication intensifies a state of constipation and generates Toxemia. This upsets the normal Acid-Alkaline balance and the growth of the Friendly Bacteria is stunted. Cleansing the Colon will help bring the Acid-Alkaline ratio back into balance. In this environment, the Friendly Bacteria will again thrive and disease causing bacteria will find it difficult to develop.
Over years of experience with fasting and cleansing have convinced us that each year the colons of many become distorted. We firmly believe that, unless all fecal matter is removed, no amount or kinds of drugs, operations, vitamins, or food supplements (including ours) can rid the body of many conditions of ill health. Therefore, the most important procedure directed towards regaining best health is the complete and thorough cleansing of the colon, no matter what or how long it takes.
A Seven-Day Cleanse (Fast) should be a must for everyone two to four times per year. Scientists have found that certain tiny water animals, alternately fed one week and starved the next during their entire life, lived five times longer than those that were fed all the time. Moderate fasting should be a routine procedure for everyone.
Our cleansing program is designed so that the glands and organs of the body can take a much needed rest.
The
Colema Board
The Colema Board is preferred for an easier and more efficient cleanse. However, if finances do not permit, use the enema instructions (provided on the following page) and enema equipment (purchased from a pharmacy). The Colema Board has been designed to provide a private, safe, and easy way to take a high enema or home
Colonic. Once you are in the correct position, it is possible to relax during the balance of the procedure. Both hands are free, so you can massage the abdomen and colon freely. The massaging technique is most important for best results.
Note: One five-gallon bucket must be used with the Colema Board. You will prefer a white bucket so you can judge the amount of water remaining. (A 5 gal. Caddy may be purchased from the Awareness Institute or a Bucket from any Home Supply Store.)
SOLUTIONS FOR THE COLEMA BOARD COLONIC – (SELECT ONE OF THE FOLLOWING)
Coffee: 3 tablespoons of ground Coffee in 1 quart of water. Bring to boil and simmer 15 minutes.
Strain through strainer and cloth, put in bucket (5 gallon) and add water to make 5 gallons.
Epsom Salts: 1 tablespoon of Epsom Salts dissolved in 5 gallons of water.
Lemon Juice: 1/4 cup strained lemon juice in 5 gallons of water.
Garlic: 4 cloves of garlic - cut up and put in blender with 1 cup of water. Strain.
Put in caddy or bucket and fill with water.
Catnip: 2 cups of Catnip in 2 cups of water. Bring to boil and boil 3 minutes. Strain and put in bucket
and fill with water. This has a particularly calming effect on the system.
Note: Most water temperatures for giving Colonics range from cool to very warm, but should be a comfortable temperature for the individual user. The Awareness Institute suggests Warm as the optimal
temperature.
The solution caddy/bucket (5 gallon) should be supported so that the bottom of the bucket is approximately 20 to 42 inches above the Colema Board using a chair for support, place the head end of the Colema Board on a chair with the exhaust portion over the toilet bowl or second bucket (If there is insufficient room in the bathroom you may wish to relocate to another room. In so doing, use a second five gallon bucket under the
(Colema Board to contain the exhaust). Use a colander in the toilet or exhaust bucket so you can examine any unusual matter that may be expelled.
Place a folded towel or foam pad on the Colema Board, so that it will be comfortable to lie on.
Lubricate the plastic tip with any convenient lubricant or OLIVE OIL
is perfect for this use. Position your body on the Colema Board and insert the plastic tip into the rectum opening (anus). Slide down the Board until the buttocks touches the edges of the buttock support. The tip should be inserted no more than 3 inches. Adjust the depth by slipping the tip further into the tubing.
Open the clamp to allow the solution to flow freely into the colon. Start massaging upward on the left side (descending colon). If you find tender, sore spots, continue to massage that area until the tenderness is gone. Continue upwards just below the ribs, then across just below the ribcage (transverse colon), and down the right side (ascending colon). Try to eliminate sensitive areas as you proceed. When it becomes necessary to evacuate, simply relieve the bowel by expelling the water.
The Fecal matter will bypass the tip allowing normal bowel action, without removing the up or changing your position. Colema Board encourages normal peristalsis, without producing bowel distention. Continue this procedure until you have finished eliminating or until you have exhausted the contents in the bucket. This will normally take one half to one hour. Remove the colander and rinse the collected contents to expose collected matter.
Do not be alarmed over some of the strange material you have passed. You should examine such debris carefully wearing protective gloves. It is not unusual to pass rope-like material that is somewhat lengthy and elastic. Remember that the success of the
Colonic may well depend more on the massaging technique than the amount of solution used. NOTE: You may use an electric massager if you prefer.
If you are over thirty, look for a sticky Grey or Brown substance resembling the white of an egg or a jellyfish (unhealthy mucous). Do not flush the toilet during the entire
Colonic, so you can see what comes out. If you have any kind of chronic ailment, you undoubtedly will have some black incrustations which may have been loosened by the Cleanser but cannot be eliminated because of twisted kinks in the colon. If there are no absolute blockages, these black incrustations may come out in small or large chunks, or as long ribbons, or as hard and tough pieces resembling pieces of truck tires you have seen on the highway, but smaller of course. If necessary take two or three of these
Colonic enemas per day for the whole 7 days. Remember that until the colon is completely clean, whatever ills you have will not disappear. Cleaning the colon is by far the most important job you should have on your mind at this moment.
Please note that an enema is the same as a Colonic but doesn't go as far up (usually only up to the descending colon). We resist on going all the way up, across, and down to the appendix. All must be cleaned out. If you are unable to give yourself a
Colonic, contact a doctor, or Colon Therapist/Hygienist who gives them, but make him/her give the massage too. Just running a mass of water into the colon is not wholly desirable (Massaging is the key!)
Upon completion of the irrigation, wash the board, tubes, and tip with a good germicidal solution. Be sure not to boil the plastic tip as it may cause distortion in shape.

The Enema
If the Colema Board is not used, we suggest the following instruction for using an enema. (Fleet or other brand names are available through pharmacies or drug stores 2-qt size preferred). For best results we recommend strong black caffeine coffee for the enema. Take at least one enema each night for the full 7 days. In more severe cases, more enemas per day may be necessary. The caffeine in coffee apparently helps to stimulate and increase peristaltic action of the colon. For each enema use 2-4 well rounded tablespoonfuls of (regular coffee (not instant or decaffeinated) to two quarts of water. Boil thoroughly or perk in a coffee maker, (Most people prefer to make one gallon at a time.)
Cool and test the temperature with your elbow, you should not be able to feel either warmth or coolness.
Do not have the water bag hanging more than two feet above the rectum.
Lie on the bathroom floor, on your left side. Insert the lubricated enema tip, allow only 1/2 cup of liquid to enter at one time. Then get up off the floor to a knee-to-chest position (squatting) with weight of body balanced on the knees and one hand: use the other hand to massage the lower abdomen (lower left side) thoroughly for several minutes.
Lie again on left side and add more coffee, each time using only a very small amount and always stopping before pressure is felt Retention is most important. The longer you retain the coffee mixture in the colon the better, thus reducing the time and amount of coffee needed. If you have the urge to go and only fluid comes out, nothing is accomplished. You have been too impatient and have used too much fluid too fast and not enough massaging between. To do a good job will take at least a full hour or more. Putting in only 1/2 cup of coffee and massaging a 2 inch area at a time, following up the descending colon, then over the transverse colon to your right side, then down the ascending colon to the appendix. You need not limit your liquid intake to two quarts. More liquid may be needed. While coffee is best, you may occasionally alternate with lemon juice (use the juice of one lemon to two quarts of water) or Epsom Salts dissolved in warm water as per instructions).
In extreme difficult cases and as a last resort, use one pint of olive oil instead of the coffee enema, but massage, massage, massage all the way up the left side, across, and down the right side, then hold as long as possible.
