Last week I had my very first colonic. I’ve been doing daily coffee enemas for over three years now, so I’m quite comfortable with putting tubes up my backside and funnelling fluid into my colon. But this was different.

I’ve spoken about how drinking a spoonful of clay in water is part of my daily morning routine, but today on healthtalks I’m giving you a quick demo and even more of an explanation of why this simple act is so beneficial.

Nat sits down with me as we discuss what kind of affect the clay has on the body, what type of clay is best to ingest, a few tips for maximising the clay’s detoxification potential and, of course, how to do it.

GUEST POST BY DANI PEPPER.

Our skin is the largest organ of our body and it’s also an excretory organ, meaning it’s a means for removing unwanted materials from our bodies. Our bodies are super clever and try to communicate with us by getting our attention. Wrinkling, dimpling and break-outs are our bodies way of screaming for attention and should signal to you that something is amiss internally.

There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t pause and silently thank the universe for how amazingly blessed I am, but on the weekend that I went to Gwinganna Lifestyle Retreat, these silent “thank yous” became my mantra. I was constantly overwhelmed by the amount of beauty, love and joy I was surrounded with – and couldn’t help thanking whoever is responsible for creating it and collaborating with me on bringing it into my life.

Out of all of the detox rituals I perform on a daily basis, oil pulling is probably one that I receive most questions about. You guys are used to me talking about coffee enemas (It seems I’m succeeding in making them cool!), but oil pulling is still a bit of a mystery. This week’s episode of healthtalks is all about debunking that mystery.

I’m well aware that this post is probably going to make me pretty unpopular – especially among my tattoo-loving group of friends, but if I’m able to get just a few people to re-think getting inked, I’m doing my job.

Once upon a time I was desperate to get a tattoo. All of my friends started getting them when we were in high school and I thought it was tantrum-worthy unfair that my parents wouldn’t let me join them. I felt so inadequate with my bare lower back. Turns out my folks were right.

When I pledged to take the empowered approach in response to my cancer wake up call, it felt like I was being tortured by having all of the foods I knew and loved taken away from me. Suddenly everything that had been a staple of my diet for the first 22 years of my life was forbidden and I was left thinking, “what the heck and I supposed to eat?” I had absolutely no idea how to feed myself if I couldn’t rely on bottles of flavour and “instant” foods.

Thankfully, I learnt that not only would I not starve, but that I would also be opening myself up to an entire world of foods that have amazing healing powers. Every member of the plant family has beautiful healing qualities, but these guys are my top 10:

I first heard Kyle Cease talk during a telesummit at the beginning of the year and I instantly became a fan. Kyle is a comedian, actor (you may remember him from 10 Things I Hate About You and Not Another Teen Movie) and motivational speaker. After 20 years on the comedy circuit, Kyle now combines transformation with comedy to bring a less-serious tone to the landscape. He is also one of the nicest guys ever.
