Had my first ever colon hydrotherapy treatment today in the beautiful oceanside town of Pacifica. Before and after the treatment I took a walk along the ocean. Pacifica is notorious for being cloudy and chilly. Today was a sunny, almost balmy October day. Today was my gift to myself for completing 1 week of detox. The colonic left me feeling bouncy, energetic, full of gratitude for life and the beauty of the world. Later on in the day I felt lots of emotional stuff bubble to the surface which I think was related to the emotional nature of the physical release of the colonic. The colonic itself was relatively comfortable and I will definitely do it again in the near future.
I did not eat enough in the morning as I was afraid to eat much before the 12pm colonic. Got way too hungry. By the time I got home I wanted to eat everything in the kitchen. You are supposed to eat lightly after a colonic–preferably something green and easily digestible. I wanted fruit and nuts, dense stuff. So I had a bunch of fruit and nuts in the late afternoon topped off with a all veggie salad(no oil or avocado, just lemon juice fro dressing) after an hour of dancing.
All in all was a great day. Had cocoa powder in a fruit smoothie, but none of the chocolate bars that have been a big part of my diet lately and I want to steer clear of. Tomorrow is my hectic work day. I am going to bring coconut water with me to stay hydrated as I talk for about 3 hours straight leading meetings on Tuesdays! Will have a big green smoothie before I leave because that worked well last week.
