Coffee Enema The method is easy to follow. It is important to use organic, non-flavored coffee. Bring a quart of distilled water to a gentle boil and add three rounded tablespoons of coffee. Let it boil for five minutes uncovered, and then cover the pot, turn down the heat and simmer for an additional 15 minutes.
Turn off the heat and let the coffee cool to body temperature. Next, filter it through a strainer lined with a clean piece of white linen. Then add more water to bring the amount back up to one quart. Fill an enema bucket with the coffee. It can be taken while lying on the floor on a towel or lying inside the bathtub. Bring a pillow for comfort and a watch to check the time.
The enema bucket should be placed around 18 inches above the body so that a gentle flow is achieved. Hanging it from the water knobs in the tube works well. Lubricate the tube`s tip with Vaseline or coconut oil and gently inserted it about 6 to 8 inches into the anus. Release the clamp on the tube and let the coffee flow in. Lie on the right side in a comfortable position. If peristaltic waves or cramping occur, deep breathing can help to relieve discomfort. Once all the coffee has passed into the body it should be held for 12 to 15 minutes.
Usually, instructions for how to take an enema suggest lying on the left side and then turning onto the back. This method would encourage the fluid to flow throughout the entire colon, and when colon cleansing is the goal, it makes sense. But the coffee enema has a different intent and so the instruction to lie on the right side has a purpose. Lying on the right best enables the coffee to be taken up by the hepatic portal vein which travels directly to the liver where the majority of benefits take place.
People who are sensitive to caffeine may find a mixture of half coffee and half chamomile will sooth and relax the effects. Those with ulcerative colitis should not use coffee enemas and there is one additional caveat. The occasional coffee enema to relieve a headache or hangover (two classic indicators of an over-burdened liver) will not be a problem, but a regular regime for detoxification must be supported by a good diet with plenty of fluid including fresh juices. Generally at least three, 8 oz. juices should be taken for every coffee enema to ensure that an electrolyte imbalance does not occur.
I'd really like to try this!
* Is this the right way to do it? * What type/name of coffee do you use? * how offen do you do coffee enemas?

It's hard at first... Just try to relax as much as possible.
Seems like good instructions. You can also follow with a plain water enema. Swailsons has info & there are plently of sites with instructions if you google it.
I don't do them very often. Only if it's really needed. I like to let my body function on it's own as much as possible. It depends on your condition.
I just used organic coffee from the supermarket.
Bon appetit!

That's pretty much the idea.
I don't do it until after I've had a BM I also do a cleaning round of distilled water and a dropperful of chlorphyll first, so that the colon is more clean to absorb the coffee. After that I pour in one cup of coffee and set the timer. It varies if I can retain it or not where I add a second cup of coffee for a total time of 15 minutes.
Any organic coffee WITH caffiene
I've done them daily, when I've been really sick/toxic. As I am feeling better I don't have the desire to do them, but will do one every week or two.
It's amazing how effective they are......instantly
