She also discusses the importance of gut health with her mother Adrienne Banfield-Norris, son Jaden Smith and medical experts. In a clip shared exclusively with PEOPLE, Smith, 50, says that she feels "so relaxed" and "great" following the procedure — while still feeling the effects of the anesthesia. "Sticking cameras in your booty. That's a little cumbersome, you know," she sleepily explains as Norris and son Jaden laugh at the clip. "For a moment I have a bit of a panic when I first started. I was just like I got scared but I just want people to know that it was very easeful process. I feel good. I feel extra good because I'm on the other side."
