shirodara and lavendar and tea tree oil may spur breasts in boys

[Guest guest]

This is a post from Ysha she has been trying to post on different

discussions but they have not gone through. These 2 topics are

responses to my posts most recently. I added a little bit about

shirodara in the parantheses at the end of the first paragraph for

anyone not familiar with it.

 

 

Ysha's replies:

" Best I understand, shirodara would be wonderful especially for

someone experiencing emotional roughness postpartum, if they also

have the cooking and mother's massage available these would usually

be priority. Herbs and eoils also, of course. Have you the ability

to do it? I understand an Albuquerque man I met recently will be

offering a new design for shirodara equipment so that people can do

it on themselves at home. He will be selling at the October NAMA

conference there. " (Shirodara is the application of warm oil poured

onto the forhead either onto the third eye or across the forhead or

up and down the forhead depending on constition and vkriti and

should be performed by someone who has training with it. It is very

calming to the nervous system.)

 

" RE Lavender Oil May Spur Breasts in Boys My instinct is in

agreement with Dr. Bhate here, particularly knowing how over 90% of

essential oils sold on the planet are synthetic lipid formulations,

unnatural also like if not the same effect as xenoestrogens. And

that plants not grown organically concentrate petrochemical

pollutants most particularly in their essential oils. And that

essential oils absorb, acting like anupanas, carriers to the

pollutants because of their small chemical structure, quickly into

the deeper tissues. And that, my educated guess is the lavender oil

tests for this research report are most likely not from organic

lavender oil. Nor are most of the hair, skin, teeth, household

cleaning, air freshners or other products so heavy with unnatural

chemicals, which quickly absorb and tend to store in the fat

tissues. And that, the fat tissues are related to estrogen

production, and xenoestrogens tend to " park " in the tissues and tell

them to keep producing more, instead of being involved in the

natural balancing feedback loops (enough, time to stop producing,

like that). "

 

" As Ayurvedic/Chinese practitioner Claudia Welsch wisely posed, what

kind of effects might we expect when we combine coffee (which has an

affinity to the breast and reproductive tissues), which is not

organic (delivering pesticides) and serve it in a plastic cup? Now,

add to that, underwire bras. This is probably a much more real

concern, along with all those other xeno estrogens, including the

plastics swamping the north pacific in an area more than twice the

size of texas in the article our member Michael Dick has shared with

those on his mailing list, and as described above, the abundance of

daily life pollutants so many people are absorbing.

 

RE Corticosteroid releasing hormone is diminished in new mothers

for 6 weeks; longer in those experiencing depression. (posted by

Adrienne).

This is an interesting article, particularly as Adrienne, you posted

last year an article citing elevated cortisol in early postpartum

mothers (great protective measure by Ma nature, as long as it is

properly balanced really soon with rejuvenative support for mom).

To me the whole discussion speaks of adrenal as well as general

depletions. I don't know that we will find answers however to

managing depression with this line of evaluation. Anyone see it

differently? "

we may not have answers to how to manage pp depression differently, but at least

we can assure new mothers with perinatal mood disorders that they aren't crazy,

that they aren't alone and that they will recover and there's a biological

explanation which is a huge comfort.
