Back to School!
Kids are rarely super excited to see the freedom of summer go on break for another year, but many times this is due to anxiety about the upcoming school year, from handling homework assignments to interacting with teachers. However, natural remedies can make a big difference for kids of all ages!
Natural medicine works to create holistic balance in the body, some remedies may take 3-6 weeks for optimum results. Particularly for kids with ADHD or other learning and concentration disorders, getting your child started on an effective program now will help ensure a successful and happy semester!
Hyperactivity, distractions and impulsiveness.
For kids who struggle to sit still and focus, the classroom can become a place of dread. To fully overcome challenges like hyperactivity and distractibility, it is important not to view these symptoms in isolation, but to also take into consideration diet, exercise, and sleep routines. Studies have shown how making modifications to these influential factors can greatly improve symptoms. In addition, when combined in therapeutic dosage, homeopathic remedies can provide even more support. Hyoscyamus (30C), Arsen iod (30C), Verta alb (30C) and Tuberculinum (30C) all have properties that help control disruptive behavior, from restlessness to irritability. Test anxiety
While some stress may actually help improve alertness, excessive exam anxiety can hinder performance. To ease this problem, help your child develop better study habits and test-taking skills, which can build confidence and annul fear. There are many resources available for this common problem, so try and target the areas that your child struggles with the most.
Time management is a big challenge for some students, but making an organized plan can make all the difference. Older students that have a handle on organization but still struggle from nerves may benefit from meditation or relaxation techniques.
In addition, students of all ages can benefit from natural remedies, which can provide soothing, safe and effective relief from exam anxiety without causing drowsiness or side effects. When combined in therapeutic dosage, Passion flower, Rosemary, Gotu cola, Anacardium (6C) and Gelsemium (6C) work together to calm nerves and support the brain and nervous system for optimum cognitive functioning.
Staying Healthy
Let’s face it no matter how clean you are or how well you raise your kids they are likely to get sick from one of their buddies at school. They are also bound to slip and fall and have midnight tummy aches.
But what troubles me more about starting school is the articles I read about germs traveling around the lunch room and the way the food is prepared.
Children from kindergarten all the way up through elementary will cough, sneeze and then touch their friends, their food and the food around them. They rub stuffy noses then scratch their eyes and keep eating.
Hand washing is allowed after lunch but by then the germs have traveled into little ears, eyes and noses where they will eventually cause havoc. So how can a parent be prepared this upcoming school year for the bumps, bruises, lice, colds, coughs, tummy aches and everything in between? Make yourself a little Health Kit with things purchased at your local health food store. Having a health kit comes in handy for last-minute emergencies and trips and it saves time and money.
Here are some items we have available that you can request for your “Mama’s Back to school Health Kit”.

The truth about vaccinations!
First of all, it is important for you to know what a vaccination actually does to the system. When the vaccine is injected into the system it enters through the skin directly into the muscle or blood of the
child (or adult) this technique bypasses the normal immune defenses in the mouth and lungs and allows a deeper reaction to the disease. Often we will see a person get “atypical” chicken pox after the vaccination. This particular type of post vaccination reaction will show as chicken pox on internal orifices such as the mouth and lungs this strain of chicken pox is particularly difficult to treat and is often fatal. We can certainly attribute increased outbreaks of herpes and shingles to only partial immunity to the chicken pox virus. MMR can cause vaccination-induced meningitis. DPT has a common after effect of encephalitis. Vaccinations administers intramuscularly do not immunize the immune system it compromises it.
When vaccines are combined, such as they commonly do with MMR or DPT, they become more dangerous. They also require preserving, which is usually done with thimerosal) Thimerosal had been used to prevent the growth of bacteria or fungi in multi-dose units of vaccines for diseases such as hepatitis and diphtheria, pertussis (whooping cough) and tetanus, or DPT. Parts of Canada banned use of Thimerosal containing vaccines in the early 1990’s by 1997 all of Canada had banned use of this dangerous ingredient. However the flu shot that was recommended to anyone over the age of 6 months did contain thimerosal this year in Canada, US and those shipped to third world countries.
I found a great site that gives you the package inserts for all the vaccinations so that you may read about the dangers and go to your Dr. with full disclosure. When is the last time you read the insert on a vaccination? http://www.vaccinesafety.edu/package_inserts.htm.
I find it interesting that, if an herb caused some of these issues it would surely be banned, yet because BIG money is made on vaccinations the statistics of illness and death cease to matter.
I recently listened to a phenomenal cassette from Tape of the Week (800-811-1132) by Karen Jenson. It was called Vaccine: Full Disclosure. I have, like many of you, heard about the vaccine issues for many years.
I have heard about the incredible link between Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and vaccines. I have certainly read and heard about the links to Autism, ADD, ADHD and many other neurological syndromes. It scares me to think that these links were noted as far back as the 1930’s, by orthodox allopathic medicine!!! Yet as one drug company who sells vaccinations put it…”the benefit outweighs the risk” I wonder how you explain that to the parents of the healthy 3 day old baby who is now dead as a result of a Hepatitis B vaccination. It is interesting that SIDS was totally eliminated in Japan when they banned vaccinations for children under the age of 2. When Sweden followed their lead the same results were found. SIDS has been virtually eliminated in both countries.
It is proven that the only children at risk of contracting Hep B are the children whose Mom was infected or the child who lives in the house with an infected family member. That equal about 26,000 kids nation wide. Adverse reactions out-number cases of the disease in government statistics and those are only the cases of death or illnesses that are reported and openly linked to the vaccine.
So... what should you do??
Search for the truth; follow the money trail related to your answers. The internet is certainly a tool we have been given in the last decade that simplifies getting in depth information, opinions and answers from varied sources.
You must get educated.
On a more physical level, we need to build the immune system and keep it strong with real food. Ultimate Green Zone is a great builder of the body. Work with a homeopath to help you know how to keep the symptoms of these diseases from making you and your child miserable.
- Homeopathic Medicine for Children and Infants by Dana Ullman
- Homoeopathy for Children: A Parent's Guide to the Treatment of Common Childhood Illnesses by Gabrielle Pinto Murray Feldman are two of many books that will help you through the illness if you do get them.
Understand the vaccination laws in your state. You do not HAVE TO vaccinate to get your child in school; however you should plan on being challenged to get your child into a public school system. You do have a right to refuse. There are organizations set up to help you “fight the system” If you get on the internet at www.google.com simply type in vaccination laws and your state. Then you at least know what the law says. You can not win the fight if you do not know how your enemy is armed.
Be aware of what diseases still exist and IF you choose to vaccinate, choose carefully to get only those that are for diseases that exist today. Good hygiene has eliminated many diseases of the last century. My thought is that you should look at the overall health risk of each disease carefully and weigh it against the possible risk from the vaccination. Illnesses like measles simply give the immune system practice in fighting. Would you ask an army to go to battle if they had never picked up a gun??

However the flu shot that was recommended to anyone over the age of 6 months did contain thimerosal this year in Canada, US and those shipped to third world countries.
“After assuring parents that additives in vaccines don’t cause brain damage, scientists have found what they believe could be a “smoking gun” linking these additives to autism and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder in children. In a study that was rushed to print online in the journal Molecular Psychiatry, U.S. researchers have discovered an apparent link between thimerosal, a controversial mercurybased preservative once commonly used in childhood vaccines, to an increased risk of neurological disorders such as autism and ADHD. While most vaccines distributed in Canada have been thimerosal-free since the early 1960s, the preservative was used in the annual flu shot doctors recommended this year for even healthy children”
