Subject: RE: TECHNIQUES FOR CLEANING
For novices to cleaning out, I offer the following. I realize
that more experienced players have long ago determined what
works best for them, and have their own methods. This is a
more general discussion for the beginner:
Cleaning out is a process that is unique to each of us.
The exact position of the large intestine in each of us
is unique and has a number of twists and turns that
can make cleaning out in a hurry very difficult,
especially for the novice.
Like anything that you do a lot, learning how to clean
out yourself quickly and completely will come with experience
and practice. Most of the basics have been mentioned here
already in earlier posts, but I would stay away from any
kind of forced or purged type cleaning. Use only clean
warm water until you get to know your body. The "shower
shot" devices that hook up to the shower head can help,
if used with care (watch the pressure and volume-speed
of the water).
No one can control the conditions of their daily life to
use all of the techniques listed here or in the earlier
posts. They are tricks and tips from my experience and
the experience of others that can be tried and experimented
with. You will have to experiment and see what works for you.
However, many will agree that relaxation is the best preparation
for both cleaning out and fisting. That is very hard to do with
an impatient top looking over your shoulder. I would suggest
that unless the cleaning out is an integral part of your
scene, that you might want to do it privately before the
scene starts, at least until you learn how your body responds
to the various techniques.
Ideally you should start with controls on your diet a few
days before you plan to play. eat more foods containing
dietary fiber, or add a dose of Metamucil or something
into you food intake each day. Getting adequate amounts
of dietary fiber (which most of us in the US don't ) will
make cleaning out much easier (in my experience). The last
18-24 hours before you play, try to stay away from things
like dairy products that will bind you up. Other things
in that category are meats, highly processed foods, etc.
Go heavy on the fruits and veggies, (but not too many
potatoes). Eat lightly the day of play. Food takes
about 12 hours from the time you eat to enter the
large intestine, and about 12 more to leave under
normal circumstances. This would suggest that you
really cut back on intake of foods of large mass
starting about 12-14 hours before you clean out.
Eat some bananas to increase your potassium balance.
Losing too much potassium can cause tremors, light
headedness, and similar problems, especially during/after
heavy play.
Water is best. The large intestine is designed to absorb
nutrients and water from the processed food as it moves
through. What starts as a watery soup as it enters the
large intestine becomes a solid chunky mass as it is
processed. Adding anything to the water you use to clean
out will cause the gut to try to absorb it. Since most
things you can add to the water are irritants (used in
medical offices to hurry the process along) they will
have the propensity to cause cramps and nausea. Irritated
bowels will not make for enjoyable play either, as they
will be stressed out and tightly clenched, making entry
of a hand beyond the sphincter almost impossible. So
use water, and ONLY water until you have more experience.
When cleaning out, expect to spend up to 2 hours doing
it. Get yourself into a relaxed mood, (use some music,
read a relaxing article, or meditate, etc) to relax your
body. The intestinal muscles usually will reflect your
mood - the more tense you are, the more closed and tight
they will be. Experiment with techniques for getting the
water into and out of you. As you can see from the other
posts, there are a number of suggestions. Some use
several sessions of cleaning over a few hour period,
and some just keep flushing themselves until they are
clean. Many of us find that lying on our backs or side
will help the water mover higher into the gut to bring
down the shit that's there. You should expect that you
will get several distinct parcels of material coming
down. The first will be somewhat solid, and depending
on you diet, either in large chunks or small nuggets.
Then will come softer stuff, and finally, you will get
the brown liquid containing flecks and very small pieces
of matter. Don't try to rush this process! Doing so will
give less than desirable results. I find that for myself,
a combination of lying and standing works best, depending
on where I am in the process of cleaning out.
If your diet has a high level of fructose, you are lactose
intolerant and you eat dairy products, or you dramatically
increase fiber intake, you may generate a lot of gas. Gas
can make it impossible to clean out fully. Also, not purging
air form the douche hose before putting it into your butt
can add to the air in there. This may give you cramps,
and block the water from getting high enough inside to
clean you out. If you take the water standing, this will
cause the air to move higher up in the gut. [It floats
on the water] That's why some like to take the water
lying sown, at a slower pace. Another technique is to
lie on your back in the shower and use your feet against
the wall to raise your butt up so that it is higher than
the gut and then take the water. This allows the water
to work it's way behind the gas bubbles, and then when
you expel the water, the bubbles can flow out with the
water. If you are stuck, and can't get rid of the air
bubble, you can try lying down for a half hour or so
in various positions to help move the bubble closer to
the rectum. This is another area that experience, and
trial and error teach best.
I have found that I am very sensitive to additives in
the water I use. You may be similarly situated. Don't
use any soap or other additive until you can clean out
without trouble. Then if you want to try an additive,
do so using sparing amounts, and never switch mid session.
That way you can determine what works and what doesn't.
Wait a few days after the cleaning to see if there are
any other after-effects also, before declaring something
OK or not. If you are sensitive to salt, beware of cleaning
out with highly softened water. Softened water may be very
salty, and through absorption, could exacerbate any salt
problem you have. Also, expect to piss during the clean-out
process. Your gut will be trying it's best to absorb water
from the quantity you are introducing. Your bladder will
fill up. Empty it as necessary. Holding it in will make
it harder to get clean.
After the play, you might want to eat a fair amount of
Yogurt or take Acidophilus capsules. The gut is a living
environment, with countless micro-organisms of various
kinds that live in your gut and are necessary for the
digestion of food, and the elimination of waste. Cleaning
out can drastically alter the environmental conditions in
the gut, flushing out these essential critters. And the
better job of cleaning we do, the more we upset the balance.
Eating Yogurt, taking Acidophilus capsules, or eating other
culture-containing foods can help the gut restore it's
natural environment after it's been cleaned, and minimize
any after-play intestinal problems. Don't count on frozen
yogurt to do this, as freezing the yogurt kills most, if
not all, of the cultures.
Also realize, that sometimes you won't be able to clean
out completely. Stress, mood, diet, health, and other
factors are involved, and sometimes it will not be possible
to get all the shit out in an hour or two. But with practice,
you will be able to effect good cleaning most of the time.
And for the times you can't get clean - then practice
Topping! :-)
Hope some of this is useful.
