I've been continuing my chi circles and I am thinking of going back to olive oil and fresh aloe gel for that purpose. It causes too much friction and hurts my skin to do the circles dry, so I figured I should go back to moisturizing better. I actually prefer to do them in the shower where it's warm and I've been getting some decent swelling lately which is good. I know that I said I wouldn't go the herbal route, and I still believe that. However, I've been eating about a tablespoon of straight fennel seeds a day for some digestive issues and I happened to find out that they contain phytoestrogens that can cause growth of breast tissue. I also heard something about massaging with sesame oil, but I'm not sure I want to smell like stir fry even though stir fry is good. I realize this is kind of dorky, but I've actually taken to stuffing my bra to the size I'd like to be for about five minutes a day just to remind myself of the goal. Visualization is always a good thing!
