Breast Massage

After a weekend at the Wellness Sanctuary with the beautiful Maria from Earth Bliss- Flower essences I feel really inspired to add breast massage to my daily regime. I have done this before but very halfheartedly.

This weekend was such an inspiration – all about womans health and how we can look after our health in preventative way, not starting when its already too late. Check out Maria’s Facebook page, she is making beautiful beauty products and massage oils.

With breast health as far as I am concerned its really important, to give your breasts braless time. I have always hated bras and never found one that is actually comfortable even with fittings. These days I just wear sports bras and find them still constricting. To allow the lymph to flow freely from our breasts bra free time is really important and the breast massage really supports moving lymph and keeping the breast tissues healthy. Breast massage doesn’t mean rubbing over them two or three times. Just google the subject and you can find lots of inspirations as to what movements around the breasts are supportive and spend some time with them.

I have made my own breast massage oil and share the recipe here:

The carrier oil is Macadamia Oil and the essential oils I added in a 15 ml bottle are 5 drops Frankincense, 5 crops Cypress, 5 drops Grapefruit, 1 drop Wild Orange, 1 drop Lemon. There are citrus oils in this blend, so make sure you don’t sunbath with skin exposed for 12-24 hours (only the area where the oil was applied.

You can read an article of Robert Tisserant here, a well known aromatherapist, on research that suggests that citrus oils can have a preventative effect on breast cancers, because of lemonene, a major constituent in citrus oils.

Also antiperspirants or common deodorants with Aluminium in them are really bad for your health in general but especially your breasts. The sweat actually needs to flow and aluminium is linked to Alzheimers and other diseases. So please look at getting a more natural deodorant. I use either Weleda deodorant or essential oils. The doTerra Purify Blend diluted with Fraktionated Coconut oils is a nice option you can try as a deodorant replacement.

Lets take our power back and implement nourishing rituals into our daily lives that prevent disease rather than having to heal from illness.

I am so grateful for all the people in my life who share their knowledge to empower me and my family to take responsibility for our healthcare and find fun and nourishing ways to implement selfcare in our daily lives.

Are doTerra oils expensive

My answer is no they are not.

Its a question of value and expense. Not expense entirely. By choosing doTerra, I choose the purest and most potent essential oil in the world, I choose to support lots of communities all over the world many of them in third world countries who have been enabled to build sustainable and healthier lifestyles by growing & harvesting for doterra. I choose ethical sourcing. I choose thorough testing of the plants and oils throughout the production process. I choose a company with heart and the right values. I choose a company thats supports thousands of families all over the world to make a primary or secondary income, most of them woman who can work from home at the times that fit around their families. I choose a product that changes lives and healthcare every day in thousands of homes.

1 drop of Peppermint oil is 11 cents, one drop of Lavender oil is 13 cents, so that’s 0.24 cents to treat a headache. Is that expensive?

One drop of Lavender can heal a regular kitchen burn that is 13 cents. Its that expensive?

One drop of Lavender in a 10 ml bottle of carrier oil can last for months to calm your baby. With the rollerbottle and carrier oil, that would come probably come to $4.Is that expensive?

The Clary Calm woman’s roll on bottle is $36 wholesale price. It comes undiluted. I split it into 3 and top with carrier oil. That’s $12 per bottle and perhaps a couple of dollars for a bit of carrier oil to top them up. They would last you for 3 months at least. So it comes to rough cost of 40 cents per day to balance your hormones, help with menstrual cramps and discomforts, balance moods and help you and your family through PMS. Is that expensive?

One bottle of Rose Touch is $118, one of the most precious essential oils on earth, powerful healer for heart, absolutely no toxins in there. How much do spend on average on a fancy perfume full of toxins that your body will have to deal with?

Its a no brainer, as far as I am concerned.

I think to say that doTerra oils are expensive is not quite aligning with reality comparing to alternatives that you would purchase in a pharmacy or essential oils that are produced with synthetic alternatives and possibly full of toxins or not as potent or plants sourced from dealers that rip off the growers.

There are many more reasons why doTerra is a beautiful company. Yes the oils are an initial investment, but one that your family is worth it and they will last you for a long time if you use them mindfully and correctly. They are highly potent and one drop is enough for most ailments.

Make your sums and look at the full value and the ripple on effects of the product you purchase.

Good night world x
