Simple Tricks to Boost Your Bust Naturally

Raise your hand if you feel like your breasts have headed south since:
A) Giving birth
B) Breastfeeding
C) Losing weight from eating a raw food diet
D) Your age
E) All of the above or a combination of the above

I would like to say I still have the teenage girl perk to my bosoms, but growing a baby and boobs, then shrinking down in weight to an even smaller pre-pregnancy size has definitely created a little hooters havoc.

For years I loved my breasts. They were just the right size, shape and really delicious. It has only been in the last few months, since Zenchai weaned himself, that I have had the space to notice and reclaim my breasts. Wow, what a difference pre- and post-pregnancy!

I know 100% that breastfeeding is not what causes saggy knockers, but rather the growth and hormones involved with pregnancy that change a woman’s bust line. Unfortunately breastfeeding has been wrongly accused of creating pendulous breasts – the real culprit is pregnancy. Uber-mother and author Veronika Robinson bluntly states that if you want to keep perky boobs don’t have babies and adopt instead.

However, chances are if you are reading articles on this website you have given birth, may have breastfed or are breastfeeding, are eating or trying to eat raw foods and could possibly be dealing with droopy dingleboppers. But there is a perky light at the end of the tunnel.

Since I am on a myth-busting campaign, let’s first understand that the breasts are comprised of connective tissue, ligaments and fat cells. They contain no muscle! Many mamas that rapidly loose weight from breastfeeding and/or eating a raw food diet can create flaccid breasts (as was my case). Losing weight too quickly (however glamorous that may sound) actually doesn’t give our skin and ligaments enough time to adjust, which results in the deflated boobie look.

The best way to prevent your melons from tickling your waist is to loose weight slowly – that might mean not eating 100% raw straight away. Hopefully you can learn from my mistake. Even though I wasn’t overweight pre-raw or pre/post-pregnancy, I still had a luscious chest curve, but when I combined full-on breastfeeding with near 100% raw food it literally sucked all the fat from my chest.

Some important factors to consider in lifting your bust naturally are proper exercise (remember to wear a very supportive bra for any exercises that jiggle your babas – ie running), yoga (we’ll come back to this in a moment), positive affirmations (I approve of myself and love myself. I am beautiful.) and high-quality nutrition that maintains your skin elasticity from the inside out (you can’t get any better than raw foods!!).

The ultra-sexy Tonya Zavasta reckons that you need at least 2-3 years to see the miracle transformations of a raw food diet on the bust line. She also mentions that if you are older this will likely take longer, but patience and persistence are of utmost importance – that goes for all of us. Tonya also has a “Hollywood Secret” breast-firming masque: Mash a ripe banana with just enough raw honey to make a soft pulp, and smear over your entire breast area, even inside of an old bra if you choose, and leave it on for about a half hour. Rinse and then apply a light natural moisturizer.

Okay, so since our breasts aren’t made of muscle we’ll need to strengthen the muscles around the breasts. Doing these yoga poses alongside raw foods is a surefire way to create dynamic breasts. But you have to be realistic, too. I don’t think any amount of yoga or proper nutrition will give us a Pamela Anderson look!

Here are my recommended yoga poses to get your jugs looking buoyant. All yoga postures are fantastic for sculpting our bodies, improving our posture and our health in general. But the following poses are specific to building chest muscle, which will help give our racks a lift without surgery:

• Cobra – Bhujangasana

• Shoulder Socket Rotation – Skandha Chakra

• Cow’s Face Pose – Gomukhasana

• Camel – Ushtrasana

• Bow Pose – Dhanurasana

• Full Locust – Poorna Salabhasana

• Fish – Matsyasana

• Standing Head to Knee – Uttanasana

• Standing Half Moon – Arda Chandrasana

• King Dancer – Natarajasana

• Wheel – Chakrasana

• Any inverted poses such as head or hand stands*

• Swinging Pose – Lolasana*

• Sleeping Thunderbolt – Supta Vajrasana*

• Locked Lotus – Baddha Padmasana*

*As with any yoga postures, proceed with care, listen to your body and if you are a complete newbie seek the advice of a qualified yoga instructor. The poses marked with an asterisk* are advanced poses.

Be sure to let me know how you get on with your ta-ta erecting crusade. I am off to do some yoga now!
