When giving a self enema lubrication is important. Once end of enema is lubricated insert into anus and instill enema. Hold enema for recommended amount of time or till you are unable to. It may be helpful to lay down with a pillow or object elevating your bottom to help hold enema.

Administering the enema should be very simple--insert, squeeze the bottle, hold in your bowels and then release. But the effects may take a little while to complete, so give yourself ample time (an hour or two) before your procedure to go to the bathroom until you are completely empty.

Do it in your bathroom. Relax as much as possible while administering. Try not to fight it when its time to let it all out. Stay in the bathroom after for a few minutes just in case.

Be careful. Use lots of lubrication and gently insert the tube. Allow the liquid to flow slowly and gently. Try to hold the liquid in as long as possible in order to get the maximum benefits. You can sit on the toilet and try to hold as long as possible, even though some leakage may occur.

The key to receiving an enema is to try to hold the fluid for as long as you can. Some people give it over the toilet and sit there.
