RE: [AlternativeAnswers] Moving Bowels......suggestions please

Try applesauce. Make sure you buy the unsweetened (organic if possible).
That usually does the trick for almost everyone I know, even when prunes
won't. My grandmother used to eat prunes, she loved them but they didn't
move her bowels as they are well-known for. But applesauce would work for
her every time.

Subject: [AlternativeAnswers] Moving Bowels......suggestions please

My Mom is about 80 y/o--she is on blood pressure meds--she eats good--drinks
a lot of fluids and is quit active.
For the last couple of weeks she has been complaining of bloating,
feeling like she has not fully evacuated when moving her bowels.
She normally has one or two good movements a day--so I'm not sure what to
think of this.
I have given her MOM--Dulcolax Suppositories, prune juice.. nothing seems to
work--she is still having some issues.
I was wondering if this might have something to do with the CT Scan which
she had 3 weeks ago--she took that white chalky stuff and says she might not
of gotten it all out? The scan was non eventful.
Her doctor has examined her--says nothing is wrong--but she is still feeling
like she is clogged up-- I would like to try and get her bowels to move
naturally for I would not want her to get impacted and have to go to a
specialist/hospital to have anything removed .
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank-you

[AlternativeAnswers] Re: Moving Bowels......suggestions please

What always works for me is extra fiber in this form: Fiber One cereal in the morning (appx 15 grams of fiber and add sprinkling of fiber in powered form.....both available at the supermarket. I eat green leaf lettuce during the day and take extra fruit and veggies. I then normalize with 1-2 days.

[AlternativeAnswers] A Course in Miracles

A Course in Miracles

New class beginning

Wednesday, July 6, 1 to 2:30 pm

at The Caritas Spiritist Center
5723 Arapahoe Avenue, Suite 1A, Boulder,CO 80303

303-258-7371 *www.CaritasSpiritistCenter.org

As a free introduction to the class, on July 6 at 1 pm, we will view the
60-minute film, The Forgotten Song: The Story of A Course in Miracles.

One of the most spiritually advanced books of our time, A Course
inMiracles teaches profound lessons of love, forgiveness,non-attachment
and Self-discovery.

Excerpt from the book:

"This is a course in miracles. It is a required course. Only the
time you take it is voluntary. Free will does not mean that you can
establish the curriculum. It means only that you can elect what you
want to take at a given time. The course does not aim at teaching the
meaning of love, for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim,
however, at removing the blocks to the awareness of love's presence,
which is your natural inheritance. The opposite of love is fear, but
what is all-encompassing can have no opposite.

This course can therefore be summed up very simply in this way:

Nothing real can be threatened.

Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of God."

- Introductionto A Course in Miracles

To register for this yearlong spiritual journey, call 303-449-3066.

There is no charge for the weekly class. A $5 donation is suggested to
keep our Center thriving.
