EXPLORING HUMAN POTENTIAL WITH COLON HYDROTHERAPIST, GIL JACOBS. 
 

"The whole purpose of this cleansing stuff is to become the best possible people we can be" - Gil Jacobs



Welcome to the 5th episode of the Free Spirit Academy podcast with cleansing expert and colon hydrotherapist, Gil Jacobs.


This conversation is special. Coming from a background of disordered eating and extreme dieting, and presenting a message that's very much about getting OFF the diets and trusting our bodies - I wasn't sure how to offer this talk with Gil.



And? He was in the top 5 people I knew I wanted to share.



If you listened to the first episode, you heard me talk about years of disordered dieting, leading into raw foods and juice fasting and how I took it to such an obsessive extreme that the only way to find myself among the self-help chaos was to quit.



And quit I did. I swapped the juice fasting and perfection hunting for a quest to settle into my skin and learn to like myself as I was...without the hope of weight loss as my primary dream goal.



Once I wasn't trying to fix myself? I could actually get to know myself. I KNEW I could love myself at a higher weight, eating absolutely whatever I wanted...but over the course of months, I began feeling less and less like myself. I developed joint pain, skin problems, my depression and migraines came back, and I don't think I realized how much of a fog I was in until I slowly began to find my way out.



Gil Jacobs, the amazing man you're going to hear from today, was basically my teachers teacher. The woman who's books absolutely turned my world upside down, Natalia Rose, studied under Gil Jacobs and I consider him to be the highest authority in the wellness world.


 The truth is, intuition leads us to more than just food. It leads us to teachers, and books, and paths. And I could not be more grateful for this one. 

A little background for you. Many years ago Gil tried to take his own life. He failed but spent YEARS deathly ill.



His willingness to live combined with what seems like an otherworldly sense for truth lead him to the body detoxification principles he shares today and in his 60's, he's one of the most vibrant, clear people I've ever encountered.
