Before I get to the days events, let it be known that the annoying evil frog reappeared at 2am this morning. The pillow over my head certainly did not block out his bellows so I bravely got up and decided I would put the hose to work on my own. Sure enough there he was and I am sure it was the same frog. After some very impressive aiming I managed to guide him out of the catchment and far far away. I also took to throwing rocks in his general direction in the hope that it would shoo him further down the path. Relief and back to bed, I believe I may have heard one more bellow around 5am although I either slept through it or it was just the one. So far tonight let me report that there has not been a sound as yet. Fingers crossed!
So today, where do I even start. 7am headed over to the wellness centre for my first shake which is made up of two different types of clays and Psyllium husks. It is disgusting and if you don't drink it quickly it goes to clay. This is followed by a honey and apple cider tea which I think may in fact be a highlight in the day.
There were two new people also starting today, Hendrick from Sweden and Elisa from Singapore. I am on the easiest (if that is possible) program called power cleanse while Elisa is on the Master program and Hendrick on the Ultra. After some introductions we commence our morning ritual, this time it is a walk around a lake followed by a swim, sit or walk at the local beach.
The beach was lovely and although I didn't go for a swim I did paddle and couldn't believe how warm the water was. There were lots of stray dogs on the beach, one in particular I found extra sweet. He must had felt the same as she came and sat near me for a snooze.
Back on site we are given our bag of supplements. Now this is like a drug store. I am given 4 pouches of 8 tablets and 1 probiotic. Don't ask me what each of the tablets are as I can't remember but they are all there for a reason to flush these toxins out. I've made a note to get more info and once I do will post it on here.
I took the first 8 capsules followed by a hot of zeolite and started to drink my cloudy bottle of water (which I have since found out is called coloidal silver).
Blood pressure reading was much better today at 104/82 and assume that the improvement was from my cold getting a little better and a good night sleep. Weight came in at 64.1kg and heading in the right direction.
Orientation with Michael was next up, he is the owner of the wellness centre and is an incredibly nice guy. I feel very comfortable talking to him and he appears to be very knowledgeable. We all have our second shake and cider for the day. He then takes us up to the colema rooms. I have been assigned room 'I' and we are told that no one else uses your room during our stay. He then shows us how everything works and we are left to our own devices.
Now to be honest I was actually really looking forward to this as it excited me to think that all that gunk stored over the years will be flushed out. Everyone on site had said they aren't really that bad and very easy to administer. So here I was with my 14 litre bucket of warm coffee water (32 degrees to be exact), a tip and a pipe. Now this is where it may get a little gross so for those not wanting to know any details skip this part.
Once inserted you press a valve which releases the liquid which you leave on till you feel some pressure, this is only a few seconds and you just feel very bloated. Once off you relax and let it pass, you are to repeat this process until the whole 14 litres has been flushed through you which takes about 45 minutes. Now that all sounds easy right? Well within minutes I started to have craps. I'm not talking about a little cramp I am talking about some of the worst cramps imaginable and could only say it would be like childbirth. I had tears in my eyes, I was gripping whatever I could, and I was swearing inbetween deep breaths. I wanted to get up and walk away but felt that this would all be a waste and to stick with it. Once the cramps had subsided I looked up at the bucket to see that it was still pretty much on 14 litres. My lord is all I could think. This repeated over and over and still only at 12 litres, I really wasn't sure how I was going to make it through the whole lot.
I found that the cramps got less for a few litres only to resurface around the 8, 6 and 4 litre mark, yes there was some inbetween however these were the earthquake ones first experienced. Now the other problem here is that I don't drink caffeine so as my body started to absorb it I went into a sweet, I was shaking, everything was blury and at one stage I thought I was going to vomit. I got through all of this by telling myself that 'I could do it' and was pleases to see that the last few litres went by very quickly and the last litre stayed in the bucket!
Now of course once finished you have to have a look at what came out, it all looked pretty normal to me and don't worry I won't post a photo. Shaky and exhausted from using my muscles so much while cramping I had a shower and headed back to the wellness centre to find that I had take just over 2 hours! The other two had been back for some time and didn't have any discomfort. I decided that before my afternoon colema (yes there are two of these each day) I would speak to Michael that all was normal.
Taking 2 hours had put me well behind schedule so I had to shuffle a few things around and had my third shake and cider followed by a coconut juice. Now I expected this to be from a bottle but Pookie got a fresh coconut and cut the top open, placed a straw in it and handed it to me. If only it was full of tequila sunrise or equivalent. I head back to my room to rest and let everything subside and I feel terrible. I'm only in my room for 10 minutes when Pookie telephones to say that it is time for the Ultrazonic Zapper. It had been written on my schedule incorrectly and I had to build up the energy and off I went.
They placed the zapper on my stomach, turned it on and Elisa and I watched a video explaining exactly what was happening and how it worked. It sends frequencies to your blood and if what is shown on the screen actually happens it is truly amazing. There apparently have been scientific studies carried out on cancer and tumor patience with amazing results. It is also meant to have excellent results on treating sists on ovaries. This practice is something else I think worth reading up on. This process took 50 minutes by which time I was busting to go to the loo from drinking all this water, tea etc and I quickly took my next lot of 8 supplements.
Massage time 2pm. This time I opted for a Thai massage and was very happy with it although yesterday's remains the best. Once out of the massage I headed back to the room for some much needed relaxing and watched a DVD.
4.15pm I had my next shake and cider, Michael was in the kitchen so I asked him about my cramping experience. He said that it was all completely normal that everyone's body deals with things differently and that the cramps were either caused by gas or parasites being flushed out of their homes. If it is parasites I may even get to see see them flush out in the toilet at a later date. We also spoke about the effects of the coffee and he advised the next one was going to be a garlic colema. I mentally told myself to stick with it as I was promised it will get better.
4.45pm headed to the steam room for 40 minutes before the dreaded colema. Before starting I took my forth lot of supplements (8 more tablets) and entered room I. There it was looking at me, 14 litres of (this time) clear liquid. I started the process with high hopes that the worst was gone but was beaten down with a stick almost instantly. Honestly I can't even tell you which was worse, this time or the last but the cramping did subside quicker this time around and I managed to complete the entire process with only a few tears and swearwords in 1 hour 15 minutes. This time no such effects like that with the coffee.
Off to the wellness centre for some dinner. Yep it is what everyone has said that you most look forward to, vegetable broth. How it is made is local vegies are boiled for 2 hours then discarded, you are left with a clear liquid which you can then add to your tasting lime, turmeric, raw ginger, raw garlic, special salt and coriander. I had the whole lot and sat down to enjoy it and had a chat with Bruce about his day as he looked very tired and unwell.
Elise was sitting opposite and within minutes was throwing up and I'm talking about litres of liquid. At this point I was thankful that I had gotten through my first day and the only thing I was feeling was like someone had literally punched me in the colon. Finished my soup, had a tea and naughtily skipped my last shake for the day headed back to my room had my probiotic, wrote this and now 8.22pm I am ready for sleep after a very very busy and exhausting day.
