Time To Be Inspired by Willie Horton
It could well be myth - but, then again,If you work to improve yourself, many myths are simply facts lost in the mists of time - that, having struggled for many years to find the meaning of life, the Buddha became enlightened when he was simply sitting under a tree. Again, it may well be legend,5854 Ugg Classic Mini Black Boots, but legend has it that Sir Isaac Newton made is most important scientific discovery, once again, whilst sitting under a tree. And although it was an apple that reputedly dropped for Newton, you've got to find your own tree to allow your very own pennies to drop for you.
What you have to understand is that inspiration only comes to the clear uncluttered mind - and the normal mind is anything but clear and uncluttered. Decades of research across various fields of psychology tell us that the normal mind is overwhelmed by random thought - some fifty thousand random thoughts whizz through our minds every single day. Many of those thoughts are harmless but, on the basis of the research, some of those thoughts are self-destructive - I was going to say positively self-destructive but that would be a contradiction - these negative thoughts are toxic. These are the thoughts that create the illusions of low self-esteem, lack of self confidence, worry,"If you lose your friend, stress, anxiety, panic and depression. Left in its normal latent state, the normal adult mind is simply incapable of being inspired.
And is life worth living without the spark of inspiration? Is life nothing more than going through the motions if you're not excited and delighted by the cut and thrust of the out-of-the-ordinary? Unfortunately, the out-of-the-ordinary is far too rare an occurrence for the normal mind that survives on the comfort of the mundane. But, if you don't jog yourself out of the slumber of the mundane you will simply not have lived life to the full - you're missing out on a whole world of excitement, success and happiness that is right in front of you - all you have to do is unclutter your mind. But if you choose to stay muddled, cluttered and, essentially, dead to the world, not only are you making some bizarre choice that you deliberately want to miss out on all life's excitement, in taking this option you'll also be a drain on the energy of those around you - particularly those who you claim to love - you'll end up destroying their lives too.
The point is that everyone is capable of being both inspired and inspiring - an inspiration to others. Everyone is capable of leaping out of the normal mundane and living their very best life. But that is never going to happen until you make space for inspiration,rather than giving yourself up and going along with something you don't want to do. You've got to give yourself the clear, uncluttered time to let the inner you out. My next-door neighbour, here in the small village that I live in in the French Alps, has often asked me what I do for a living. And, although I have explained it to him many times, he came up to me at a barbeque recently and asked me the same question. I asked him what was it that he didn't understand about what I do. His answer: "No, it's just that it seems to myself and my wife that you waste a lot of time doing nothing!"
Doing nothing is not a waste of time. Doing nothing can often be the time most fruitfully spent. The peace and clarity of mind that comes with spending time doing nothing is the fertile ground in which inspirational ideas simply spring to life. Thomas Edison found that he only became inspired in his mind's quiet moments and, rather than wait for that to happen to him on a random basis, or last thing at night, he deliberately set about regularly creating quiet moments for his mind during the course of his working day. With over four hundred inventions patented in his name, I think he might have been onto something! Pablo Picasso said that he wasn't sure when inspiration would strike so he made sure that he cultivated a prepared mind.
How prepared are you to be inspired? How often do you simply let your mind go off on flights of fancy? I'm not talking about entertaining negative thought - I'm talking about simply letting your mind wander onto what normal people would find undoable or unachievable. Such things are only undoable to a normal mind constrained by pre-programmed thought. De-program yourself - let yourself go, let yourself off the hook of normal 'living inside the box'. Find your tree, sit under it and spend some quality time doing nothing.

Celebrity Skin Care Products
Celebrity Skin Care Products
If celebrities know one thing, it is how to stay beautiful. Just imagine the pressure they must be under to always look their best. In the case of the A-list actors and actresses,5854 Ugg Classic Mini Black Boots, they can barely leave their homes without being photographed. Those photos end up on the covers of every magazine in every supermarket checkout in America. Poor Britney
In recent times, a number of celebrities have launched their own skin care and cosmetic lines. It makes a lot of sense, if you think about it. Why not capitalize on the fame they have established in their respective careers? Smart celebrities have taken the endorsement scenario to another level entirely. Instead of endorsing existing products, many of them have simply launched their own lines.
Cindy Crawford is one such example,a garden hose. After a highly successful modeling career, Cindy dropped out of the modeling scene to settle down and start a family. A few years later, Cindy decided to capitalize on her name by launching a line of specialized skin care formulas. She partnered with the famous French cosmetic surgeon,Ways of telling if that Bag is Designer Original or Copy by Allison Thompson, Jean-Louis Sebagh, to create Meaningful Beauty. They offer a wide range of skin care products designed to reduce free radicals and stimulate the growth of collagen, both of which are necessary to fight the effects of aging,Advantages of Using Natural Yeast Infection Treatments by George Balibrera. Well done, Cindy!
Fresh-faced freshmen, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, are everywhere these days. These girls have been in the entertainment industry since they were just a few months old, and they have build up a veritable cosmetic and fashion empire in recent years. These girls are highly influential with the "tween" crowd. They have a wonderfully fun line of cosmetics for young girls, that includes metallic mascara and sparkle applications that are crayon-like in their appearance. Smart kids, indeed!
Jessica Simpson has also started her own line of skin care products. After her recent television and movie endeavors, there is no doubt that she should be exploring her career options. Her line of skin care products is called Dessert Beauty, and is produced in conjunction with a fellow named Randi Shinder. This line is more focused on lotions and lip balms with scents like strawberry and vanilla bean. It's good to see that Jessica has plan B in effect!

we now reset it and establish new priorities. With a new goal in sight
Goal Setting Can Limit Our Flexibility and Learning
"People seldom hit what they do not aim at." — Henry David Thoreau, 19th century American naturalist, poet, and essayist
Goals are precise and measurable objectives with exact time frames and targets. Goals are short-term steps toward our long-term vision. Goals are specific points along our journey to higher performance. They could be organization or team improvement objectives such as targets for cycle time, customer satisfaction, error or defect rates, new products or services, costs, or revenues. Personal goals could include targets such as income level or financial position, new home, car or other item, an academic or technical qualification, business we want to start, or position we want to reach.
Clear and powerful goals set priorities. They narrow the wide field of options and choices to those few activities that leverage our limited time and attention. They keep us focused on finding the shortest, most direct route to our destination. That means goals point out where not to go and what not to do as much as where we should go and what we should do. So clear goals lead to faster, clearer decisions, which move us more quickly toward our dreams.
Long-term goal setting has always been vaguely unsatisfying for me. I lean more naturally toward visioning. Part of the reason I am uncomfortable with long-term goal setting is because goals are shallow. Goals define what you want to have, not what you want to become. They are a means, not an end.
Another reason goal setting has been less satisfying is because I've never been very good at it,It is in giving that we grow. Most of the time frames on my projections,5854 Ugg Classic Mini Black Boots, forecasts, and predictions are wrong. I suppose I should ask for a refund on my cloudy crystal ball. But through persistence and staying true to my course, I've eventually reached and then reset many of my visions. I've generally got to where I wanted to go and became the person I wanted to become. But it was always through a different route than I first expected to take. I guess that's called learning?
So there's the paradox of goals. I believe in personal, team, and organization goal setting. I continue to set goals. And I continue to help leaders set goals and objectives for themselves, their teams, and their organization. Goals are targets that help us immensely in moving from a general vision to a specific set of priorities and actions.
We need to take them seriously — but not too seriously. There are many reasons that we may not reach our short-term goals. Some of them are good — a better, unforeseen route came into view, we learned that a narrow focus on that goal would mean losing someone or something else we care about, or we realized we had to take time out to strengthen our capability before stretching for that goal. Other reasons for missing our goals are bad — we didn't follow through and persist, we failed to change our habits or develop new skills, we lost control of our time and priorities, or we became distracted and wandered off track.
We should set goals and establish priorities. They should be as specific and measurable as we can make them. But with a longer-term Focus and Context (vision, values, and purpose), we need to see goals as vital learning points. Disciplined and effective goal setting means that at the end of the time frame we've set with every goal, we pause long enough to understand why we've hit or missed that goal.
Was it our action or some larger wave we happened to catch that carried us there,identify your strong points? Could we repeat the success if faced the same set of circumstances again,we must be single-minded. In other words? If we missed a goal, why was that? Was it unrealistic? Did conditions change that pushed the goal away from us? Could we have done something better to reach the goal?
Since our goal is part of a larger Focus and Context, we now reset it and establish new priorities. With a new goal in sight, we now set out for this next learning point toward fulfilling our bigger vision, values, and purpose.

around a wine glass for an instant neat and decorative look.
Creative Ways to Storing Jewellery
Do you have trouble trying to store jewellery without it getting all tangled, earrings separated from each other, tipping out your whole jewellery box just to find one piece of jewellery?? Well here are some tips for on storing your jewellery in a neat and decorative fashion.
Designing and selling jewellery both on a website and from home I need to be able to display my earrings in an organised and professional manner - I hope you can find some inspiration from the ideas below.
Store earrings (hooks) around a wine glass for an instant neat and decorative look.
A long string of pearls across the top of your mirror and hang your earrings in the gaps.
A small storage box from the hardware shop, the ones that have little draws for nails etc. There are 16 draws so you know exactly where everything is,regardless of what people say.
Store earrings on a long piece of ribbon and tack the ends onto the back of a dresser/wardrobe
Use a corkboard, with pins on it and the earrings and necklaces hang off the pins. Or if you are feeling crafty you can decorate the frame of your cork board - remove the actual cork inside the frame, paint the frame and add some little decorations like sequins,Swimwear, beads, lace, ribbon etc staple a piece of mesh (tulle fabric or mesh from your hardware store) and staple that to the frame,or simply get you out of her doghouse, this provides room to hold lots of earrings this idea also works with old picture frames as well. To hold necklaces and bracelets simply screw in some little hooks (you can get these from hardware shops) around the frame.
Large clear bead containers that are round and screw on top of each other-they are fantastic for rings, beaded bracelets etc as you can see exactly what it is you want and if you don't wear something for awhile it doesn't get dusty. Nothing gets tangled either,5854 Ugg Classic Mini Black Boots!!
A roll of film which is damaged place the film horizontal across your shelf and hook your earrings on those little square holes that film has on the edge
An ornate candelabra that to dangle earrings, necklaces and bracelets from you can sometimes pick these up cheaply at op shops.
A decorative glass light fitting and then hang them around the edge just like you would on a drinking glass - you could pick up a cheap old light fitting at markets, garage sales etc and then you just dismantle it.
Mug/cup holders from homewares shops are great for draping your jewellery on.
A great idea for studs and brooches is to get a pretty piece of thick ribbon or lace then attach the jewellery through the material and you can hang it or pin it across ways near the rest of your jewellery.

" how pleasing the shape is to the naked eye. By far
Crack the Clandestine Code of Diamonds
Precious, brilliant and expensive why wouldn't diamonds be a girl's best friend? When giving the most significant gift of a lifetime, most men, and even the women who receive them, know precious little about diamonds. By the time they're old and experienced enough to know about cut, shape, grade, brilliance, color, weight, and setting, they already have the diamond of a lifetime. Crack the vocabulary, and you'll be on your way to purchasing your first diamond with confidence.
The Four Cs
Diamonds are not created equally! "The Four Cs of Diamonds" cut, clarity, color, and carat determine diamond grade. A diamond certificate accompanies each diamond and includes grades for each of the four Cs as documented by a gemologist. Learn what these terms mean to avoid that "deer in the headlights" look when the jeweler uses these terms.
Cut refers to the physical cut, not the shape of the diamond, and it affects the brilliance of the diamond. If the cut is too shallow or too deep, the refraction of the light detracts from the brilliance. Grades for cut, from best to worst, include Ideal, Premium, Very Good, Good, Fair and Poor. The Ideal grade applies exclusively to round diamonds.
Clarity measures the purity of the diamond. Most diamonds include some flaws, called inclusions. All but the rare flawless diamonds contain inclusions of varying number and size. The Clarity grade measures the purity of the diamond, the relative absence of flaws. Clarity grades the appearance under 10X magnification. Top grades include F (flawless forget it, you'll never see this), IF (internally flawless, you'll never afford it),but there always is., VVS1-VVS2 (very, very slightly flawed not we're getting a little more realistic), VS1-VS2 (very slightly flawed), and SI1-SI2 (slightly flawed). All but the VS1-VS2 and SI1-SI2 diamonds contain flaws that are invisible or barely visible under 10X magnification. Lesser grades include I1- -I3 (flawed and obvious without magnification). If price is a consideration, then invisible to the naked eye is a reasonable tradeoff.
Color actually refers to the absence of color in diamonds. The finest diamonds are colorless, which allows them to absorb and reflect more light, displaying more brilliance. White diamonds range from ice white to light yellow. Color is graded on a scale from D-Z, with D-grade diamonds being colorless and Z-grade diamonds containing the most color. Grades G-J are near colorless to the human eye, and offer the best value for the money.
Carat refers to weight,5854 Ugg Classic Mini Black Boots. Because large diamonds are extremely rare, the price rises exponentially rather than arithmetically according to carat weight.
Each of the four Cs affects price. Once you set a budget, determine the attributes most important to you and select your diamond according to your preferences.
Learn a few more simple terms, and you're well on your way to demystifying the world of diamonds and carrying on a conversation with your jeweler that will turn the heads of less astute shoppers.
Shape also affects price, but only in terms of "shape appeal," how pleasing the shape is to the naked eye. By far, the most popular shape is the Round diamond, and it's the most expensive as well. Fancy shapes such as Emerald, Marquis, Pear, Heart, Oval, Radiant and Princess, are less expensive than Round diamonds. Side by side, fancy diamonds look larger than Round diamonds of equal carat weight. If you want something out of the ordinary, a fancy shape might be right for you.
Facets refer to the flat, polished surfaces of the diamond,after the work week is done. The round diamond checks in at 58 facets, the most facets of all the shapes,where the feature is altered beyond recognition. The most important facet is the top or Table facet the largest facet. Diamonds cut to perfection enable the facets to refract the light brilliantly.
Settings should enhance the brilliance and size of the stones, not detract from them. The range of choices is stunning, from the metal to the prong display. Even more than shape, the setting reflects your personal preference and style.
Now that you understand the clandestine vocabulary of diamonds, you can relax and have fun while selecting that one-of-a-kind, perfect diamond for you.

obesity
Obesity in Women by James Pendergraft,5854 Ugg Classic Mini Black Boots
The issue of size is of special concern particularly to women because most people believe that physical attractiveness and beauty is dependent on having a slim body that reveals the shapeliness of a woman's body. As such, it is not common for people to think of large women as unattractive. In fact, in most societies, a big body size, obesity, and being overweight are factors that do not agree with the term beauty. After all, in as much as slim is considered attractive, being weighty does not conform to beauty.
What Causes Women to Become Obese?
1)Due to bodily changes. When a woman has her menstrual period, there are hormonal changes that happen to her body. These changes may cause her to react in some form to the presence of food. Moreover, because there are various unpleasant experiences that one may feel because of hormonal changes, eating sometimes becomes the only release of tension available for women. Because of this, it is not surprising to think that women who are unable to cope with menstrual problems gain weight.
2)Due to peer or social pressure. Women who live in societies where there is tension or chaos or fast-paced are always looking for some way that will help them cope with such pressure. Unfortunately, for most, the easiest and most convenient way to express disappointments and frustrations is through eating.
3)Due to genetic factors. There are some women who can quickly increase in size. This is because obesity has been found to run in certain families. Because of this, women with a family history of obesity should be all the more careful when it comes to food consumption.
Effects of Obesity in Women
1)An obese woman suffers emotionally from the condition. Most of those who have weight and obesity problems tend to have a poor assessment of themselves, thus resulting in a downgrading of their self-esteem. This is truly harmful because once a woman thinks of herself as lowly, there is usually no motivation for her to try to maintain a healthy figure.
2)Health risks are common. An overweight woman is at the mercy of cholesterol accumulation. Because of this, heart diseases are a reality.
3)Moreover, kidney and liver problems are also a threat to obese women.
4)Obese people generally have a poor ability to break down sugar. As a result, sugar accumulates in the bloodstream, which can cause diabetes. Once a person contacts diabetes, there are various complications that one may eventually suffer from.
Along with the above-listed effects of obesity and being overweight, a woman who is overweight will need to spend a lot of money for treatments. In some cases, treatment takes the form of counseling or through a review of one's personal standards. However, if the problem is not treated through counseling, the condition may require going through medical treatments that are costly and lengthy. As a result, obesity does not only pose risks to one's health, the condition can also be a burden on one's emotions as well as their budget.
The issue of size is of special concern particularly to women because most people believe that physical attractiveness and beauty is dependent on having a slim body that reveals the shapeliness of a woman's body. As such, it is not common for people to think of large women as unattractive. In fact, in most societies, a big body size, obesity, and being overweight are factors that do not agree with the term beauty. After all, in as much as slim is considered attractive, being weighty does not conform to beauty.
What Causes Women to Become Obese?
1)Due to bodily changes. When a woman has her menstrual period, there are hormonal changes that happen to her body. These changes may cause her to react in some form to the presence of food. Moreover, because there are various unpleasant experiences that one may feel because of hormonal changes, eating sometimes becomes the only release of tension available for women. Because of this, it is not surprising to think that women who are unable to cope with menstrual problems gain weight.
2)Due to peer or social pressure. Women who live in societies where there is tension or chaos or fast-paced are always looking for some way that will help them cope with such pressure. Unfortunately, for most, the easiest and most convenient way to express disappointments and frustrations is through eating.
3)Due to genetic factors. There are some women who can quickly increase in size. This is because obesity has been found to run in certain families. Because of this, women with a family history of obesity should be all the more careful when it comes to food consumption.

The Price Of Beauty: Hair Straightening Costs
With an onslaught of shampoo commercials on TV, featuring models with long,these companies perceived this as an excellent mode to wave their companies logos, smooth and super straight tresses, it is no wonder that a big chunk of the women population want their hair to look impeccibly perfect. As a result, hair salons offering hair-straightening services continue to mushroom all over. Do-it-yourself hair treatments, hair ironing kits, and other various hair products are constantly being upgraded, with new and improved.
To say that there's a great variety of hair-straightening methods and products to choose from is an understatement. Women find themselves in a dilemma on what would suit them, and bring out the best results. Among their major concerns is cost. When it comes to hair treatment, does price really matter? Will a more expensive process generate better results, or do cheaper ones suffice,5854 Ugg Classic Mini Black Boots?
Factors to consider:
1. Hair Condition
Needless to say, more work translates to higher costs. The curlier the hair, the more expensive the salon treatment or hair product will be.
2. Treatment life span
One has to choose whether she wants her hair to be straight permanently or for a certain period only. While some women prefer to have hair a la Cher for their entire life, others love experimenting with various hairstyles - frizzy one day, super straight the next. A permanent treatment's rate will of course be higher than a temporary one.
3. Maintenance
When one constantly takes good care of her hair, especially after undergoing a hair-straightening treatment, there will be less frequent salon visits necessary.
$$$$$: Chemically straightened treatment done by professionals in a salon
While there are hair straightening formulas readily available in the market,Your body will feel the benefits as the shape ups tone your thighs, it is still recommended to leave the chemicals to the experts. The reason is simple: dealing with strong chemicals requires technical know-how of the entire hair straightening process. Also, professionals will be able to evaluate one's hair condition to find out how strong the chemicals will be used, to avoid any damage.
$$$$: Hair ironing kit
While this hair tool is, of course, cheaper than a salon visit, it does not guarantee lasting results. Hair irons come in various types,6. Midnight blue.. Those using metal plates are usually the cheapest, but it is not recommended for regular use because its surface will cause hair damage in the long run. The ceramide hair iron is considered gentler and effective, but it comes with a higher price tag. Using ceramic plates, this kind of iron is smoother, which will result in better flattening of hair. It also has a better control in temperature, that will prevent burning and permanent hair damage. In buying a hair iron, make sure to test it before buying. Thoroughly read and follow the instructions included in the kit. When you regularly iron your hair, avoid using other chemical treatments, such as coloring dyes, because it might result in hair damage. It is also recommended to have a regular trim to prevent split ends from occurring.
$$$: Hair dryer
Amazingly, despite the emergence of newer hair straightening products, the good old hair dryer is still surviving, and in fact, still widely used. Perhaps among the cheapest of hair straightening products, the hair dryer still remains to be reliable in temporarily managing frizzy hair.

Fibrocystic Breast Disease – Treatment and Prevention by Cynthia Simmons
As a clinical breast thermographer I see more and more fibrocystic breast cases than any other abnormality of the breast. Cysts are likely to develop in women ages 30 to 50; however, the youngest patient that I know of was a 12-year-old with multiple cysts in her breasts. In fact, I am seeing this condition increasingly in younger and younger women. One has to ask the question: “what would contribute to the rise of this condition so early in life, and what would happen to these girls and women over the years if they continue on this path”.
The symptoms of fibrocystic breast disease (FBD) may range from mildly annoying in some women to extremely painful in others. The severity of these symptoms may range from month to month in the same woman. Some women feel that their breasts become so painful that they can’t bear to touch them and will have trouble sleeping at night due to the pain. This disease itself is not dangerous, but it does complicate breast self-examination since it is difficult to identify a new lump amongst existing ones,When tanning beds first hit the markets. Consequently, the probing, squishing, x-raying and routine biopsies that many women experience due to the fibrocystic structure of their breasts may in fact result in more trauma and increase the risk of developing malignancy.
In my opinion, synthetic hormones in our environment along with growth hormones and estrogens that are fed to livestock mimic estrogens that encourage the proliferation of this condition in most women. Young girls are beginning to menstruate at the age of 10, whereas the age of menstruation began between the ages of 14 and 16 just one generation ago. Women also continue with their menstrual cycle until the age of 52-54, rather than at age 50 or younger a generation ago. This unprecedented extension of the menstrual cycle has a devastating effect on women, specifically on hormonal areas such as breasts and ovaries. The fluctuating levels of estrogen account for the cystic nature of inflammation and swelling common with PMS sufferers. Diets high in fat, with meat and dairy products that are loaded with xenoestrogens have a role in contributing to the formation of painful lumps. Caffeine in coffee, colas and so called ‘energy drinks’, theophylline in tea, theobrimine in chocolate have been shown to contribute to this inflammation and should be eliminated from your diet.
Women with a history of constipation or irregular bowel movements are several times more likely to have cysts than those who have at least one bowel movement per day. It is important to point out that those who regularly consume a plant based diet excrete two to three times more detoxified estrogens than those who eat meat; carnivores thus tend to reabsorb excess estrogen through their intestinal wall. Patients that have cysts and fibroadenoma in their breast commonly will have cysts and nodules in other parts of their anatomy, of course the same areas that are hormonally affected along the endocrine tree including thyroid, ovaries, and uterus.
Many terms are used to describe certain conditions of the breast:
Fibroadenomas are tumors that form in the tissues outside the milk ducts. They generally feel smooth and firm, with a somewhat rubber-like texture. Typically a fibroadenoma is not attached to surrounding tissue, and will move slightly when touched. They are most commonly found in adolescents and women in their early 20’s but can arise at any age.
Cysts are fluid-filled sacs in the breast. They probably develop as ducts become clogged with old cells in the process of normal emptying and filling. Cysts usually feel soft and round or oval. However, a cyst deep within the breast may feel hard, as it pushes up against firmer breast tissue. A woman with a cyst may experience pain, especially if it increases in size before her menstrual cycle, as many do.
Fibrocystic breast disease is a benign (non cancerous) condition characterized by round lumps that move freely within the breast tissue and generally expand and shrink with the onset and after menstrual cycle. It is estimated that as many as 40% of all women in North America have fibrocystic breast disease. Fibrocystic tissue usually presents with hypothermia (cooling) on a thermographic image.
A cancerous growth in the breast is often not tender and not freely movable when touched. During thermographic evaluation, high risk areas often present with an asymmetrically hot area along with considerable warming during functional challenge.
A number of other breast problems that are benign or non-cancerous may be placed under the heading of fibrocystic conditions. These include disorders that may lead to breast inflammation (mastitis), infection, nipple discharge, dilated milk ducts, milk-filled cysts, wart-like growth in the duct, and excess growth of fibrous tissue around the glands. Many women have had several invasive procedures over the years such as needle aspirations and biopsies to investigate these conditions. One must ask if it is possible to prevent or even reverse this problem in the first place?
Fibrocystic disease should be treated with the understanding that it is a multifactorial problem that requires a multi-modal approach; the following strategies have been found to be very effective in our clinic:
We begin with a detailed case history of the individual to identify potential problem areas such as current health conditions, past diseases, medications that may cause symptoms, and any unresolved physical and psychological issues. Once the case "picture" is complete and there is a clear identification of imbalances, a therapeutic approach is applied to address the issues,5854 Ugg Classic Mini Black Boots,Abortion Pills – Some of the Lesser Known Facts by James Pendergraft. Since each individual case history is unique, each case requires a different approach.
Diet Advice – besides eliminating caffeine, saturated fats and salt, a high fiber diet including a great variety of plant based foods free of pesticides and hormones will help in preventing cyclical fluctuations in cyst size and tenderness. A high fiber diet is extremely beneficial with the elimination of unwanted toxins preventing dangerous xenoestrogens from being re-absorbed back into the body. Increase consumption of vegetables, especially the cruciferous family (cabbage, broccoli, brussel sprouts and kale). The main ingredient in these vegetables is indole carbinols, which promote 2 hydroxyestrone, (a protective estrogen) and counters the proliferative effect of carcinogenic 16 alphahydroxy estrone (a bad estrogen). You should also keep your intestinal flora healthy with the use of probiotics.
Maintain and enhance your liver's ability to metabolize estrogens from different sources. This can be done through proper nutrition and requires very specific concentrations of nutrients and occasional liver support and detoxification. This is a continuous and life-long prevention program. The ultimate goal here is to improve your estrogen metabolism.
Lifestyle Advice - Start and maintain an exercise program that addresses three key components of health: duration (aerobics), strength (weight resistance), and flexibility (stretching). A moderate daily exercise routine will promote weight loss and hormonal balance, stabilizing your mood and the overall feeling of well being.
Hormonal Balancing – Over the last few years of being involved with the Thermography Clinic and Dr. Mostovoy, I have had the pleasure of learning about Dr. Pettle, MD, Canada’s leading authority on bio-identical hormones. It has been observed that the proper assessment of a patient’s hormonal levels - utilizing blood, saliva and urine testing should be done at the onset of treatment to establish a baseline and to clearly identify the hormonal imbalances that inadvertently contribute to breast abnormalities. It is not surprising to see that most problems in this area are a result of estrogen dominance and progesterone deficiency. The use of bio-identical progesterone in the second half of the female cycle to balance the hormones has been proven time and time again to be extremely effective therapy. Natural Estrogen blockers made from cruciferous vegetables such as DIM and I3C along with Calcium D-Glucorate also proved their effectiveness over years of clinical work. European physicians have clinically used Lugol’s solution, a mixture of iodine and potassium iodine, for over a hundred and fifty years. Proper thyroid testing is also essential, since thyroid conditions usually precede breast disease.
Homeopathic Medications – are a safe and extremely effective way of balancing your problems naturally by allowing your system to correct itself with gentle stimulation of your own immune response. Unlike so many conventional medications, homeopathics are never addictive. Once symptoms are relieved and resolved, you can stop taking them. Here is a list of just a few of the most common medications that I’ve used over the years:
Phytolacca Decandra (poke root) – comes to mind as the most prominent glandular remedy and almost always is useful in problems associated with mastitis. Tenderness of the breasts before and after menses. Breast tumors with the enlargement of Axillary glands. When a patient complains about breast pain in the upper outer quadrant radiating into the Axillary regions, I always think of this great medicine.
Conium Maculatum (poison hemlock) – indispensable in conditions that present with very hard nodules, tenderness and swelling around menses. Painful swelling in the Axillary glands with numbness going down the arm.
Silicea Terra (pure flint) – as a consequence of defective nutrition and assimilation, these patients will complain of stitching (splinter like) pains. Unhealthy tendency to suppuration with fistulas and abscess conditions, keloids, painful scars. Soreness of drawn in nipples, sensation of a stone pressing in the breast.
Scrophularia Nodosa (knotted figwort) – useful in dissipation of nodules in the breast. The characteristic symptoms would be pain in all flexor muscles. Incidentally, very useful in Hodgkin’s disease.
Lac Caninum (dog’s milk) – this patient will present with symptoms of painful swelling in the breasts before menses, worse with jarring motion. This woman will hold both breasts firmly going up or down the stairs. Her nipples may be painful and the pain usually alternates from side to side.
Asterias Rubens (red starfish) – may have symptoms of ulceration in the breast, nodules and indurations with lacerating pains that are worse at night; these pains may extend all the way from Axillary glands through the arm to the end of the little finger. Restlessness of lower extremities at night would very much indicate the use of red starfish.
Botanicals and Phytotherapy is the oldest method known in our history to treat disorders; I have always had a lot of respect for Mother Nature’s infinite wisdom by providing us with the tools to help us heal the sick. Botanical hormonal normalizers help the body regularize swings and hormone imbalances, enabling a move towards complete removal of the problem. Although no true specifics are known for fibrocystic breast condition, Agnus Castus (vitex) is undoubtedly strongly indicated since it aids in the natural production of one’s own progesterone. Oil of Evening Primrose may also be of great value.
When addressing the problem of fibrocystic conditions, several components must be addressed simultaneously to provide effective treatment, for example:
Lymphatics - to promote drainage and vitality of lymph tissue
Diuretics - to alleviate water retention
Anti Spasmodics - provides help with dragging pains
Nerve Relaxants - for problems associated with PMS
Essential Oils - In conjunction with other treatments, essential oils are very beneficial to many of patients. The use of a combination of Frankincense, Sandalwood,At this point you should, Lavender, Green Myrtle and a touch of Grapefruit in a base of Jojoba oil can be beneficial. Frankincense and Sandalwood are anti-tumorals and help create an environment high in oxygen thus making it impossible or difficult for bacteria and viruses to survive. Green Myrtle supports the thyroid, while Lavender is the universally beneficial oil.
Supplementation:
Vitamin A taken in high dosages stimulates complete or partial remission of cystic mastitis. Beta Carotene in high doses of 100,000 IU or higher has been shown greatly effective for this condition. One cup of carrot juice or sweet potato contains 20,000 IU of Beta Carotene.
Vitamin E – has provided dramatic results in controlling cystic mastitis, take 600 IU daily of d-alpha tocopherol. Vitamin E-based antioxidants are found in rice bran, palm fruit, barley, and wheat germ.
Iodine – 0.25 mg per day, the best sources come from sea vegetables such as nori, kelp and dulse. Lugol’s Solution as mentioned above will require doctor’s prescription. Studies have suggested that women who are iodine deficient may have a predisposition towards developing breast cysts. The body requires iodine for the production of the thyroid hormone.
Other Beneficial Supplements:
Vitamin C 500 mg per day
Vitamin B6 200 mg per day
Zinc 15 mg per day (picolinate preferred)
Flaxseed oil 300 ml per day
Lactobacillus acidophilus 1 teaspoonful three times a day
Evening primrose oil 1500 mg twice a day
Coenzyme Q-10 150mg per day or more
Flax seed freshly ground tablespoon twice a day
Lymphatic Drainage - Appropriate use of lymphatic drainage and manual massage therapy has been very beneficial to many of our patients. A properly working lymphatic system is essential in the treatment of breast conditions; gentle manual stimulation is very effective.
Finding a lump in the breast could be a terrifying experience for some women; one should always consult with her healthcare practitioner and have the lump examined. Fibrocystic breast disease is a condition that definitely could be managed given the proper approach. Patience and perseverance are key, though there are many options available, become proactive.
