Many women are afraid of their first mammogram, but there is no need to
worry. By taking a few minutes each day for a week preceding the exam
and doing the following practice exercises, you will be totally prepared
for the test, and best of all, you can do these simple practice exercises
right in your home.
EXERCISE 1:
Open your refrigerator door and insert one breast between the door and
the main box. Have one of your strongest friends slam the door shut as
hard as possible. Hold that position for five seconds. Repeat again in
case the first time wasn’t effective enough.
EXERCISE 2:
Visit your garage at 3 AM when the temperature of the cement floor is
just perfect. Take off all your clothes and lie comfortably on the floor
with one breast.. Ask a friend to slowly back the car up until your
breast is sufficiently flattened and chilled. Turn over and repeat for
the other breast.
EXERCISE 3:
Freeze two metal bookends overnight. Strip to the waist. Invite a
stranger into the room. Press the bookends against one of your breasts.
Set an appointment with stranger to meet next year and do it again.
You are now properly prepared.
