As parents, our greatest responsibility is to nourish and protect our children. We must defend them like mother lionesses. Let me point out that “mother” is a term I use for anyone who has loving charge over another. The same holds true for the “mothers” of friends or pets.
Here are my strategies to become the healer in your home with homeopathy:
1. Always protect your thinking. When you’re told that the only way to address an ear infection or fever is with an antibiotic, learn enough homeopathy not only to prove otherwise to yourself but to offer the same success to others.
Nothing says summer like having some water fun in the pool, beach or backyard sprinkler, but “swimmer’s ear” can ruin it all.
This painful condition, often called otitis externa, is caused when water becomes trapped in the ear, giving certain bacilli or fungi that thrive in moist conditions a place to proliferate.
Instead of heading to the doctor for a round of antibiotics, many moms reach for their homeopathy kit. Homeopathy works naturally, quickly and effectively to reduce pain and inflammation so kids can get back in the water without medications!
What’s the best way to ruin a road trip?
Car sickness.
Or plane sickness or just plain old motion sickness has a way of ruining not only the sufferer’s day or entire trip but that of those around him as well.
So what do you do?
As always, whip out your homeopathy kit or stop at a health food store just have these remedies on hand.
How can you tell a lady from a tramp? You can tell by the stuff from which she’s made.
Vitamins have been resorted to for nearly a century. But oh, how carefully we must interpret who they’re pretending to be!
For decades the public has been led to accept that products manufactured in a test tube are the same as those that naturally occur in food. A promiscuous pretense.
Vitamins are not separate molecular combinations but biological intricacies whose actions depend upon the entire complex functioning with integrity. Like a fine Swiss watch, they can only act fully when the co-factors of the intact vitamin complex are present and running in intelligent harmony. (more…)
I love our lawn. It’s large enough for an animated game of badminton, for the dog to zig-zag wildly across it and for large family gatherings around the fire pit. I also take pleasure in the creeping Charlie, dandelions and plantain that tiptoe through the grass and give it an embroidered appearance.
But not everyone thinks that way.
Although I live in a country/suburban neighborhood, there’s a neighbor down the road who contracts to have his lawn sprayed with pesticides.
One evening when my husband and I were on a walk, we ran into him, and I delicately mentioned that lawn pesticides have long been associated with certain cancers in humans and dogs. He paused momentarily. “Now that you mention it, every dog we’ve ever had has died of cancer … and my wife had breast cancer.” (more…)
Homeopathy is fast becoming the medicine of choice for families who are sick and tired of being dependent on drugs that often cause more problems than the original sufferings.
Ok, ok, I’ll admit, Darvon works. Indeed, it kills pain, but after having been prescribed for 50+ years, it was banned from the marketplace for causing deaths in people who innocently took it for their pain. And what was the cause of death? It was cardiac arrest in those who had no previous nor family history of such. Quite a price to pay for something that could easily have been resolved with the use of a simple, inexpensive homeopathic remedy such as Belladonna, Arnica or Hypericum. If only those folks and their families knew before they filled the prescription. (more…)
I’ve seen the headlines screaming out already: “Best New Sunscreens,” “Recent Research on Skin Cancer Risks,” and “Keep Your Children Protected.” Pardon my political incorrectness, but how does covering my precious babe in a smattering of synthetic glop equate to protection? Also, didn’t our ancestors work in the blazing sun for centuries without developing skin cancers? Something doesn’t quite add up.
Because I refuse to put anything on my skin that isn’t 100% food, I forgo the sunscreen (you can check out other articles on the subject here). Instead, my family and I bask sensibly in the vitality-giving rays of the sun. Even my fair-skinned husband does it. A slather of antioxidant-rich coconut oil to nourish and protect the skin and a sun hat go far in reaching this goal sans chemicals.
I will admit though that occasionally we overdo it and end up with a bit of sunburn. Does this mean seemingly endless days of painful suffering? Not with homeopathy!
