I am going to do the Master Cleanse again. This will be my third time and I intended on doing it for 15 days and I would like to go vegan afterward. I really need to change my diet if I want to reach the ripe old age of 120 years old.
This year I will be doing this with a group of ladies that live in my area. Most of them are clients of mine. I am encouraging them to do some type of fast/cleanse for 10 days for a healthy change rather than weight loss. That might be a hard sale for some, because some are only in it for weight loss. I really hope that eventually I will be able to improve the health of my sisters by sharing the knowledge I have and continuing to share what I learn in the future. I am really excited about my change and I really hope that I can stick with it afterward.
I plan on doing the cleanse 4 times a year in line with the solstices and equinoxes. Wish me luck.

Tits, titties, jugs, knockers, breasts, boobs, boobies!
I was raised as many of you were to be a proper southern woman and that meant wearing all kinds of undergarments like slips (1/2 or full), girdles, bras, proper panties, and stockings with your dresses and skirts. Well, I never got into wearing slips and to this day I only own one 1/2 slip that I have owned since high school and only wear it when deemed completely necessary. I do, however, wear bras...well, sometimes. I ran across an article similar to the one found at this link sometime ago and though it made an impact I never shared the info as anything more than a joke. Well, now I am taking it more seriously. I come from a family of women that have female type cancers quite a bit. I have a cousin who had a double mastectomy done. I have taken the step of moving to natural deodorant and now for the most part I am bra-less too.
I am interested in knowing your thoughts about such subjects. We live in a place where it is improper to just let 'em hang and it is often viewed as unattractive to go bra-less post breastfeeding if your breast didn't quite bounce back like you thought they would.
Note I posted on FB
This note is going to be about breast health or at least a small issue in breast health. I ran across a couple of sites some time ago that talked breast health as it pertains to bra wearing. http://www.all-natural.com
Let me say this first of all I have always hated buying bras, because I have never been well endowed and so paying $10 for a bra was my limit and even that seemed like too much for the little bit of fabric required to make my bras. My reasons for wearing them are probably the same or similar to many of you.
1. rite of passage- getting your first bra is a BIG deal--even if your lil' nibblets weren't.
2. proper undergarments-you just plain old have to wear one cause your Mama told you to.
3. saggy boobs-at some point the girls start to hang. If you have breastfed this may be even more pronounced.
4. western ideals-in most "developed" countries we like to keep up the appearance of youth and so we fight anything that doesn't look youthful tooth and nail. This is the main reason that so many where underwires and pushups and have red marks and shoulder marks.
I have gotten to the point that I wear a bra maybe once a week for a couple of hours. I have been bracing myself for my husband to say something but I think he has thrown in the towel on many things and simply lets me be me, bless his heart. I mostly wear the tshirts with the tittie sling in it, but some days I literally let 'em hang. I understand that some of you still work outside the home and aren't able to do such things. Maybe you are just blessed abundantly in the area of boobage and don't feel comfortable with them being unleashed. Whatever the cause just try to cut back on some of your bra time. I learned from hanging with my cousin as she went through breast cancer that the lymphatic system in one of the first things they check after diagnosis. You can do your own research, but let's just say that your breast need to be able to be flushed out by this system regularly and underwires and pushups are too constricting to allow for good flow of lymph.
The normal movement of you body when you are sans bra will encourage lymph flow. When you unleash them after a long day massage is good to make up for the lack of flow all day. This can be done by you for you (bufu) or you can have your husband do it for you which will probably be more fun.
I have tried to make light of this subject, but breast health is really serious especially if you are in my matrilineal gene pool. Please take this seriously as a precaution and do your own research. We have been fooled into thinking that breast are only sexual objects, wombs are unimportant, and menstrual flow is unclean. We have to teach our daughters better than we were taught.
Here is one of the links and if you google you can find some others. By the way don't be naive enough to think that the medical field is going to back this one up. If you aren't sick they are broke.
Peace, light, love, & balance
