We are nearly all back to normality, nearly all back to work, school and whatever else we have planned to make January less grey and sad.
New Year New Me.
This is all I am seeing over social media, in the shops and adverts on the telly. But do I really need a new me? Or just a me that realises her worth and makes herself happy.
So, let’s explore this, how can I make me, the best version myself. Firstly, it’s about exploring new things, taking risks on what I enjoy and trying out things I have been wanting for ages….

I have looked at having a colonic for a long time. I have always been nervous and a little worried that it would be painful, that I would be embarrassed and it wouldn’t work….
Benjamin found a voucher on one of those type of websites that give you the best deals. It was for a buy one get one off treatment, in London. It was only 1.5 hours away and we love a drive, so I booked it. Fuck it. We booked it for the 3rd Jan, like a new year treat and a date day…the weirdest date day we have ever had but who said romance was dead.
We booked parking, walked to the house in a normal looking estate. Knocked on the door, and was greeted by a lovely woman who made us feel right at ease.
Within 30 mins, we had spoken about what was going to happen, our eating habits and how we were feeling. Then off came the clothes. I went first, and Benjamin stayed in the room. He couldn’t see anything, but was there, luckily we are a strong couple, with very minimal boundaries…
Lubed up, tube in and the massage started. The water flowed and then the pressure built. I was on my side to begin with and then my back, and there was a mirror for me to be able to see the tube and what was flushing me out. I was amazed at how relaxed I felt, I could have easily fell asleep! 45 mins later, and I am flushed out for the first part of my colon. Waddled to the toilet, for the TMI of this, exploded for what felt like the best poop I had EVER had.

Then it was Benjamin’s turn…and it was a VERY difference experience to me….
Let me explain.
Again, lubed up, tube in and massaged. Not a very different start to me. Benjamin was however a little more tense at the start. Not nervous, but tense..
The woman started massaging his belly, then before we knew she was crying, burping and yawning. This lasted for what seemed like hours, but was for no more than like 10 mins. She broke off from her trance, and explained that she is Reiki trained and she felt some serious negative energy inside him and he was trapped within.
Then she explained that someone from the spirit world, had arrived. She explained he was a older man, smoker and he was watching over Benjamin and taking care of him. Benjamin wasn’t sure who this could be, but maybe from family he did not know…
Safe to say, this was a moment of spiritual healing.
From there, she unblocked chakra’s and poured in light and positive energy. Benjamin is not a firm believer in this, but he felt something he cannot fully explain.
When she was unblocking his mind and soul, he felt a pain in his chest that moved up and down his body. Once she has finished unblocking the negatively in his heart and body, he felt this release, this pressure disappearing and the pain vanishing. We can’t explain what happened.
Safe to say, that Benjamin had a spiritual flushing in every sense of mind, body and soul – all while with a tube up his arse.
Me and Benjamin felt drained, exhausted and really didn’t speak on the way home. Benjamin fell into day dreaming moments and could not string a sentence together, at one point I mentioned snow, and he just shouted SNOW. He just kept saying – I don’t really know what is wrong with me…
Once we were home, we snuggled on the sofa, and the nap we had was deep and lush. We felt we needed to shower, lay down and we had toast for tea. Perfect end to a weirdly wonderful day.

Today, we feel lighter, less bloated and more awake. We rebooked for 5 weeks time for the second round; I wonder what that will bring….
Anyway, I have rambled enough.
*leaves the chat…✌🏼
