Six months ago the thought of letting of of salmon, shrimp, chicken, cheese and icecream were not only impossible, but completely ludicrous thoughts to me. Then, slowly, as I worked on becoming well again(I had severe pneumonia and adrenal fatigue earlier in the year),I adjusted my sleep, let go of caffiene, let go of stress, did some basic cleanses and further tweeked what 'most' would say was an already good diet.
I started my first series of colonics three and a half weeks ago and have now had four of them. Due to further info I received from my colon hydrotherapist about digestion and the affect of certain foods on our colon and hence our complete body, I began to find myself effortlessly making the choice to exclude foods that I once couldn't imagine living without. Though the curious thing to me is that this choice became easier after each colonic. One may casually say, well you felt good so you just wanted to keep feeling good. Though I say that 'should have' been the case at many times in the past when I felt good-though I still couldn't have let go at that time.
I'm wondering, has anyone here noticed a change in their sense of peace and a much deeper feeling of well being once completing a series of colonics?(and I still have more to go!) Is the colon one of the areas that we store anger or pain?
I am also wondering Andreas, do you think that a combination of colonics and a move to a vegan diet would bring about a change of energy within ones self? I am at this point in awe of how well I feel right now. I know I have more work to do, including a full kidney cleanse and attempting my first liver flush 'again' in two weeks. Though at this very moment, I am thrilled with feeling the best I've felt all year! The only real changes recently being my colonics at this same time as I've changed to a vegan diet.

Ps.At the risk of sounding preacher like- don't be scared-I was, though it's amazing how creative you can get once you decide veges and grains are your canvas and you have so many wonderful things like avocados, nuts, beans, cilantro, basil and many other spices(flavours) to paint with.

Congratulations for putting yourself
on the Healing Path! Your letter was
a delight to read -- especially
that last poetic sentence in the
post-script.
I've been eating mostly living foods
for the last 28 years. I haven't had
so much as a cold since Jimmy Carter
was President. You're right about
the enormous variety of living food
there is to eat. Meat-eaters are
pretty much limited to beef, chicken, and pork. You and I and
Andreas and the other vegetarians,
have an abundance, a vast array,
of delicious food choices.
You realize that now, Danielle.
Your taste buds have been liberated,
and your eyes have been opened.
Life is just going to get better and
better in the months and years ahead. Don't doubt that for a moment. The best is yet to be!
Blessings,
Owen

This is a reply to # 489,729Dear Danielle,
The body produces emotions to communicate with its host, that is you. If it receives foods that burden, congest and harm it, the afflicted cells will send you emotions of discontent, pain and anxiety.
The presence of toxins and undigested, decomposing food also has a strongly irritating effect on the immune and nervous system, and affect the way you think, the way your feel about yourself, others, and the world.
The colon is the seat of the subconscious which processes at lot of the information it receives from the cells of your body. The transverse colon passes right through the solar plexus, which is the center of emotions. Holding on to intestinal waste there also causes you to hold on to undigested mental and emotional experiences, and vice versa. Removing the waste through colon cleansing, as you have experienced it, has a greatly relieving impact on how you feel.
The liver is the first beneficiary of colon cleansing because it now doesn't have to deal with all the toxins that are generated and released into the blood stream by a congested colon. If the liver gets overtaxed with toxins, you will become angry, or if you don't dare express it, become depressed and more fearful.
Not having animal producs makes huge difference to emotional health. Since the body doesn't need fight off protein food that on top of being dead is coagualted through heat and partically decomposed through flesh cells' internal enzymes, it can do what it does best: make use of what nature naturally provides, and thrive on it.

This is a reply to # 489,747Hi i had been to two colonics so far, but havent felt like liberated or anything like it. maybe because my skin is bad and i see myself everyday, so despite the colonics, one look into the mirror is enough to dampen my mood.also maybe i expect miracle from colonics to heal me, but i guess it doesnt work that way, my skin is the same.
i have managed to keep away from most junk food, but recently (b4 the colonics) i have been feeding myself with crap, esp when i felt hopeless. i turn to eating, and i eat a lot...then after eating i feel guilty. and it becomes a vicious cycle. then i would want to go for colonics asap to get rid of them, almost like being bulimic i guess, but just not removing the food from mouth.
what exactly is happening to me? i am also jealous of a good friend who has great skin, making me a little hostile to her even when she does nothing wrong... this is really driving me crazy...
any inputs? greatly appreciate- Re: a different experience for me peanutbutter

This is a reply to # 489,760Hi,
I feel for you because I can relate. When I was much younger(in my teens and early twenties) I used to sabotage myself with bad food choices. For me there were some difficult family problems and it was painful and I looked for an escape from that pain. I am 37 now and have worked on this a lot and it takes time...I have read that some peoples response to pain is to eat and eat and eat to the point of becoming numb/sick because that suppresses the pain. Or it is also said that eating to the exreme is also about self punishment and loathing. I think I ate badly for both of those reasons. A few days ago Andreas wrote a dialogue about emotional eating and explained it well. This is what he wrote...
"Your choice of food largely reflects how you feel about yourself and the world. You unconsciously desire foods that harm you if you feel guilty about something you have done or said, even it was years or lifetimes ago. Usually, comfort foods serve as means of self-punishment, unconscious that is. If you trully accept and love yourself, regardless of your flaws, your natural instincts will guide you in your choices of food, lifestyle, exercise and relationships. These will mirror that caring, loving relationship you have with yourself. See more details about this in my book Freedom from Judgment, ener-chi.com)"....
If you read what he wrote a few times the anormity of it sinks in.
No amount of colonics will make you feel wonderful if you are fighting against yourself with self loathing, guilt and jealousy. My life mentor used to say to me when I used the word 'guilty'(way too often!)-"guilt is a waste of time". And it is. It serves no good purpose at all. Forget the guilt and just do things differently 'next time'.
I have a feeling that my guru would say in this instance, "it's not about your acne anyway, it's about your feeling towards yourself". In other words, if you didn't have the acne, there would be something else that you would find to tear yourself down for. And, it could then be said that you are possibly keeping your acne(subconciously conscious choice) so that you can perpetuate your negative beliefs about yourself. Of hand, I'm not sure what book to recommend, though you need to find a way to love and value yourself more. It takes time and searching.
THEN, you may be able to start letting the colonics work for you. It is said you need 6-10 to do the job properly-and there is no point just filling the drain with junk again to block it up- When you eat junk food right after them(or a few days-whatever) you are sabotaging the colonic as well as yourself. Remember, I said that I ate a very clean diet afterwards(nothing processed, no meat, no dairy-lots of veg, good grains and oils,nuts, fruit). That is part of why they work differently for me-the other part being the nuturing that I am giving myself right now.
Anyway, regarding the acne, I wouldn't waste another cent on creams or medications.This is much deeper than they can ever reach. Most people here keep coming back to four main areas that need cleansing to really help bring us to wellness- The colon, kidneys,liver and lymphs. I don't know what is going on with your physical health in these areas. Though, you may need to look at cleansing some or all of these.They may very well help you start to see some surface changes with your acne. Though nothing will work well if you don't find a way to realise how special and wonderful you really are.
Love,
