Beautiful Breast Care

A lovely, preventative, herbal detoxifying mask for the breasts by Rachelle Poitras

Regardless of whether or not you’ve got breast imbalances, toxins are present in every woman’s breasts. It’s simply the nature of the world we live in. Toxins not only come the foods we consume, the water we drink and the products we apply to our skin, but they’re also passed along from our mothers. For instance, if your mother was a photographer and developed her own photos she was very likely exposed to high levels of chemicals which were then passed on to you.

This buildup of toxins can then start to negatively impact cells and promote mutations. One of the best things we can do is start to remove these toxins and heavy metals.

Breasts are like sponges and soak up chemicals and heavy metals found in deodorants, antiperspirants, shampoos, skin care, makeup, unfiltered water, inorganic foods and so on. Because of their highly absorbent nature it’s important to be mindful of the products we apply to our breasts and surrounding area.

To help increase detoxification doing a breast massage after your breast mask is a great way to help stimulate the breast lymphatic which is responsible for draining toxins from the breast tissue. When lymph becomes stagnant, toxins are retained and proper nutrition and oxygenation of the breasts is inhibited.

Mask Benefits

• Detoxifies breast tissue. Helps to remove heavy metals, toxins, bacteria.
• Nourishes breast tissue with vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.
• Helps clear the breast lymph

Directions

• Depending on your chest size you’ll need to adjust measurements accordingly.

• Apply to breasts, chest area up to collarbone and underneath armpits.
• Visualize the the mask binding to the toxins and eliminating them via the lymph.

Listen to some binaural beats to heal and regenerate tissue or for a cellular detox.

INGREDIENT BENEFITS

• Kelp is hydrating, cooling, has antioxidants and contains iodine which detoxifies heavy metals, helps balance hormones, shrinks growths, alters gene expression in the breasts and so much more.
• Castor oil: clears and decongests the breast lymph. It’s also anti-inflammatory and can help reduce benign breast masses.
• French Green Clay is rich in a wide array of minerals and has strong detoxifying properties. This swelling clay penetrates deeply into pores, drawing out impurities, and even puffiness caused by carrying excess water. Only use the clay once a week if doing the breast mask more than once a week.
• Turmeric reduces inflammation,  supports healthy and radiant skin, is  a powerful anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-microbial.
• Chlorella is packed with vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. It’s also an important source of iodine which is incredibly important for healthy breast tissue. It’s also a great heavy metal remover and helps cleanse and detoxify.
• Charcoal powder draws bacteria, toxins out. It also works well as a skin exfoliator.
• Frankincense essential oil is incredibly healing and detoxifying  for breast tissue

DIRECT THE MEDICINE

• When used internally fresh burdock root binds and removes heavy metals and chemicals. Juice some root and have it with some filtered or spring water and chlorella. When medicine is taken internally and applied externally, this tells the body where to focus the medicine.
