The day before your colonic, eat light - preferably fruits and vegetables.
The day of your colonic, eat a light breakfast and lunch, depending on your appointment time.
IMPORTANT:No food 2 hours prior to your colonic.
After a Colonic . . . After a colon irrigation, it has been our experience at Cleansing Waters that it is important to:
Drink plenty of liquids - pure or filtered Water, fresh vegetable or fruit juices, herb teas, and electrolyte drinks and young coconut water kefir.
Fortify with intestinal microflora (friendly bacteria) - ask Nancy for more information about this.
Optimally eat soft food such as pureed soups for the first 24 hours after the colonic session.
Avoid eating raw vegetables for 2 days. Steamed vegetables and raw fruit are all right, but masticate (chew) thoroughly.
Reduce meat consumption for 3 days (heavy beef and pork). Wild-caught fresh fish would be the preferred animal protein for the first 24 hours.
No alcoholic beverages for 48 hours minimum!
Observe your body's reaction to the colonic; food you eat and the energy you feel.
Continue your exercise program, if any. Begin walking if you are not on a program.
Add a Lifestep or "pooping stool" to your bathroom. Being in the proper squatting position during elimination will reduce stress and straining on the pelvic floor, and help with complete eliminations.
Be aware of your breathing and your thoughts. Sometimes emotional energy is also moved during a colonic.
Take a detox bath the evening of your colonic. This will help continue the detox process by pulling toxins through the skin as well. Not to mention it is relaxing and part of being "good to yourself." Use baking soda or Epsom salts in tub of water, or you may use 1 cup raw apple cider vinegar in tub.
