Gut Health 101 with the Godfather of Colonics, Gil Jacobs

This week, Gil Jacobs joins host Hiwa Alaghebandian on Blush. Widely known as the "Godfather of Colonics," Gil Jacobs is a prominent figure in the world of colon hydrotherapy & cleansing. His approach to colon hydrotherapy and deep tissue cleansing has gained him a significant following and a reputation for pioneering effective methods of detoxification. Jacobs began his journey in this field after a personal health crisis in 1981, when he was poisoned with hydrochloric acid, leading to severe damage to his internal organs. This life-altering experience pushed him to explore natural healing methods, eventually leading him to become a certified colon hydrotherapist in 1989. Over the decades, he has performed nearly 70,000 treatments, and his methodology emphasizes the importance of diet in conjunction with colon hydrotherapy. In this episode, we dive into the right diet for the ultimate gut health, what to look for in a colonic treatment, best and worst practices for gut health, what the wellness industry is doing wrong, and more practical tips. We also zoom out and get deep into why we care about gut health--how it affects our lives, and the point of all of this.

THREATENING TO BREAK UP, AND OTHER ANXIOUS ATTACHMENT PROTEST BEHAVIOR

Have you ever threatened to break up with someone when you actually had zero interest in breaking up? Have you ever acted hostile when you felt neglected, rather than voicing your feelings? Have you ever based how long you wait to respond to a text on how long they took to text you? Have you ever called or texted excessively when someone wasn't responding? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, you were likely engaging in "protesting behavior." Protesting behavior is something we do when our attachment system gets activated, in an attempt to reestablish connection and ease the anxiety from lack of attention. In this week's episode, host Hiwa Alaghebandian breaks down protest behavior. She explains types of protest behavior, how they look, and shares her own recent protest behavior. She also explains why it happens, and how we can stop doing it. She also gets into: her mascara & eyelash regimen, vaginal steaming & mushrooms, hustle culture & shame around mental health, TV recs of the week, astrocartography, life updates, and more.
