An original illustration piece I commissioned and art directed. This featured wellness article provides a step by step visual guide on how to conduct a self-breast examination.
Lovingly illustrated by Leah Goren.
Begin by looking at your breasts in the mirror with your shoulders straight and your arms on your hips.
Next, raise your arms and look for the same changes.
Next, feel your breasts while lying down, using your right hand to feel your left breast and then your left hand to feel your right breast. Use a firm, smooth touch with the first few finger pads of your hand, keeping the fingers flat and together. Use a circular motion, about the size of a quarter.
Finally, feel your breasts while you are standing or sitting. Cover your entire breast, using the same hand movements described in step 4.
