Yes, you read right, the scourge. You can never let your
constipation get out of hand. Water, exercise and more water is what you need
to move your bowels along, and that is not all. You cannot let those muscles in
your bowel get stagnant by having too many fall-backs on supplements and enemas;
you want to exert your own efforts to move matters along. Hydrotherapy is great
and relaxing and helps with getting rid of toxins, but too much hydrotherapy is
not good either. It makes you lazy and the bowel sluggish and all too soon you
are struggling with constipation again. What the bowel needs is exercise – and lots
of water.
Treatment for
sluggishness
Some people have side-effects from too many colonic cleanses
which can perforate the bowel and also facilitate in making you lazy to push.
Other people can have multiple cleanses a week without problem or stubborn side
effects. Seriously, the best thing to do
with a sluggish bowel is to get it working in peak order again. How? Let’s say
you are on the toilet and giving a push. Don’t give one push only and expect
miracles to happen. Relax into your seat and take a slow and deep breath. Don’t
think negative thoughts. Think that you are going to do it. Push moderately and
relax again. Do it a total of three times and then make an all-out effort. If
nothing happens, drink another glass of water, walk up and down for five
minutes, and try again.
Enemas and devices
Fleet enemas should not even be on the market. If you know
what solutions go into your body you will stay well away from toilet devices. One
cannot use an enema twice in close succession. And what if it does not work the
first time? Going the natural way for some people might be a little harder but
it is best for your bowel in the long run. If you have a sluggish bowel, put
some time aside every day for the toilet and take your time.
