Breasts are amazing - they are beautiful, they nourish
babies, and they have an intelligence of their own.
Breasts have so many incredible benefits for the health of
humanity, the power of women, and the nurturing of the future generations.
Your breasts deserve a medal of honor - plus nurturing,
pampering, and respect.
Yet, our breasts are suffering from the dangerous effects of
rising environmental toxins in our food, water, air, and toiletries, degrading
media, restrictive fashion, and lack of empowering health education for women.
…Angelina Jolie announced her decision to have her healthy
breasts surgically removed because of her potential cancer risk. This action
has inspired me even more to realize how vital it is that we join in this
conversation and speak about how to naturally care for our breasts, how our
environment, diet, and lifestyle impact our health, and why breast health is
more important than ever before.
Thus, my intention is to share positive inspiring
information to support women to love their breasts and learn about ways to
naturally care for our amazing breasts.
Let's uplift breasts to the status level they deserve!
7 Amazing Things To Know About Breasts
1) Breasts want freedom.
Bras restrict the movement of lymphatic fluid through the
breasts, underarm, and shoulders, thus causing toxins to build up in the breast
tissue. Underwire bras are the worst culprit, as the metal also can disrupt the
energy flow through the breast area. A recent French study has shown that women
who don't wear bras actually have perkier breasts even as they age. Exercising,
dance, and rebounding without a bra also allows the body's movements to support
lymphatic flow and proper drainage of the breasts. The natural movement of the
breasts as the body exercises and moves is another essential component to
lymphatic health in the breasts.
2) Breasts need massage.
There is no muscle tissue in a women's breasts, so breasts need assistance to enhance circulation through the breast. A woman's breasts are mostly fat tissue along with milk ducts, connective tissue, nerves, and lymph glands. Self breast massage is an important regular practice for women to support their blood and lymph circulation and reduce build-up of toxins and hormones in the fatty tissue of the breasts. Massage your breasts daily with a natural cold-pressed vegetable oil, such as coconut, almond, or jojoba oil. You can also add pure essential oils such as rose, jasmine, or clary sage to your massage oil base. I'm not talking about "man-handling" here, I'm talking about gentle self massage in which you get to know what your breasts feel like, notice any changes, and use gentle lymphatic and circulatory movements to enhance health.
It has been well-documented that a woman's breasts will
synchronize with her newborn baby to become the perfect temperature. When a
mother and baby are skin-to-skin postpartum, her breasts will naturally adjust
their temperature to regulate the baby's body temperature optimally. A mother
of twins will have each of her breasts match the ideal temperature for each one
of her twins. A women's breasts are more reliable and efficient than any baby
warmer. So breasts are totally hot - just not in the way people usually talk
about.
4) Breastmilk has a gazillion medicinal uses.
Breastmilk is pretty much the most amazing food substance available to mankind. Mother's milk is completely unique and not possible to replicate (despite what you may have heard from the formula companies). It actually changes minute by minute, day to day, to provide exactly the right nourishment and immunities that a baby needs as determined by the breast through receiving information from the baby's saliva on the areola. There are over 400+ identified nutrients in human breast milk, including probiotics and an abundant source of stem cells. The first milk that comes out is colostrum, which is rich with immune factors and is considered to be "liquid gold", and extremely important for the life-long health of the baby. Breastmilk is also used by wise mamas for many purposes including putting on diaper rash, earaches, pink eye, sore throats, and many other healing needs. When a women breastfeeds the breastmilk bathes her milk ducts as it passes through to her baby, thus providing increased breast health and preventing breast cancer in direct relation to how long she nurses.
5) Breasts are energy centers.
Traditional Chinese Medicine is a complete system of health
that has been practiced for thousands of years, based upon the movement of
energy through the body on the meridians (energy lines) and acupoints (nodes of
energy on the meridians). There are six meridians that run through the breast
area, and three of them are the Kidney, Liver, and Stomach meridians where most
breast lumps and cancer develop. TCM treats breast cancer by addressing the
energy stagnation and movement of qi. Acupuncture and TCM are holistic ways to
promote breast health and can be used in combination with other health care
treatments as well. Massaging the acupressure points along the meridians, or
holding these energy points around the breasts, can help with promoting breast
and whole body health. Underwire bras can also interfere with the
energy moving through the meridians in the breasts, another reason to let your
boobs go free, or invest in a supportive natural fiber bra.
6) Breasts are a lot like canaries.
You've heard about the canary in the coal mine? Miners would
take canaries down in the mines with them, because the birds were so sensitive
that if the environment was toxic the canaries would die, and then the miners would know to get out of there immediately! Breasts are extremely sensitive, they receive information from the environment and their tissues collect toxins and hormones, like jet fuel and flame retardants. When breastfeeding, the saliva from the baby is absorbed into the areola and the breasts then immediately respond by providing the nutrients and immune factors that the baby needs based upon the breast's incredibly sensitive receptors. Breast cancer is now the most common form of cancer for women in the US, and it's not because breasts or our genes are the problem. Our breasts are the canaries letting us know that our environment is toxic and we must make changes in our health, diets, exposure, and detox. Due to the over 70,000 chemicals now used in the US over the last 100 years, we are living in a toxic soup and exposed to chemicals in our air, food, water, homes, cars, clothes, and more. Our breasts are letting us know that we need to create a healthy change for our longevity and the future generations.
7) Breasts are beautiful.
Your breasts are perfect for you. All kinds of breasts are
beautiful. Breasts change in shape and size over life, and that's okay. Some
men like large breasts, others prefer small breasts, and some like medium
sized. Whatever shape or size of your boobs is just right. Love your breasts!
They have superpowers, they are intelligent, and they are amazing! In Mongolia,
when a baby fusses, everyone lifts up their shirt and shakes their breasts for
the baby, and the baby calms down and looks around amazed. Everyone laughs and
smiles shaking their boobs, including mom, grandma, and grandpa too! So smile
and love your boobs, they are awesome.
And they forgot one: Breasts are FUN. At least when Elvira's in charge. #breastpower - WTS
