Instructions for Coffee Enema
Instructions for a Warm Water Enema: Warm 4 cups (1 quart) of purified water and pour into enema bucket. Right before taking the enema open the clamp on the hose and let the water flow to the end of tube. This will expel any air from the hose. Then apply a small amount of oil, such as olive oil or castor oil to the anal area and on the tip of enema nozzle for ease of insertion. An excellent position to do the enema is on a rug or old towel (near a toilet) on your knees with your head down near the floor. Lying on your left side or on your back with a rolled towel or pillow under the pelvis are also good positions. You have to find which position works best for you. The enema bucket should be hung on a towel rack (or shower curtain rod) - elevating the liquid is necessary to have enough pressure for the fluid to flow into the colon. Gently insert the enema nozzle fully into the rectum. If on your knees make sure to put your head down near the floor so gravity will help the fluid flow downwards into the colon. Slowly release the hose clamp to allow the liquid to begin to flow into the colon. (Often you will have the sensation of warm liquid gurgling or flowing into the colon.) If the flow seems too fast, close the hose clamp; wait for a few seconds, then open the clamp again. You want to relax into this, so you may have to open and close the clamp a few times before the bucket is emptied. Once you have taken in the entire enema, raise your feet in the air to allow the warn water to move to the upper portion of the descending colon. The water will act as a bowel tonic and loosen fecal matter. After a few minutes, expel the contents. This may be repeated several times a day. Taking warm water enemas in conjunction with any of the above mentioned cleansing regimens is helpful. (You may add 1 tsp. of Castor Oil to the water. This will help with lubricating the bowels.)
