Day 3, Fast and Detox at Koh Samui
Day 3, morning colema.
Kind of beginning to get the hang of it, finding it fascinating. Here's how it works.
You MUST put a kitchen colander in the loo, with the seat up.This is because you want to SEE what's coming out of you! You rig up your bucket to a hook on the ceiling.
Make sure the tube is at the bottom of the bucket, fill the rest of the bucket with some filtered warm water to the top. Not too warm. Then put the colema board - basically a fibreglass board with a whole in it - over the loo and balanced on a chair. Make sure all hoses attached correctly ( a level of detail I can't be bothered with here, sorry) and lie down, with towels and ipod. You put the pipe up yer bum, take the clamp off, and the water starts flowing in. Sooner or later (sooner, in my case) the water wants to burst out again, but you have to massage it up the colon and try to hold it in for a bit. After practice, you should be able to get about a 6th of the bucket inside you without letting any out. Reattach the clamp to stop water flowing in, and wait. Once it does come out, squirting around the sides of the little hose that's that bringing the water in, then you'll feel rather a sense of release, to put it mildly, and you release the clamp and let it flow in again.
here's a rather satisfying animation:

Here's an instructive video on what happens when you swallow food:

We can see from this video that we are supposed to have somewhat of a mucus lining in our small intestine.
