By the time you are aware of a symptom, chances are there were ten steps that preceded it.

It’s not magic. It’s not sorcery. Despite what people might tell you, it’s not “just a placebo”.

Homeopathy provides support for the changes you want to make in your life. This medicine reaches far beyond the physical symptoms that ail you.

The patient who asked this poignant question (and gave her permission for me to blog about it) was laughing as she asked me about the sorcery.

How much do you pay attention to the minutia of your daily health? How many of these questions could you answer about how your body functioned this week?

Imaginative, unstructured play brings children into the moment and grounds them in their bodies.

What if we looked at children with learning challenges through a holistic lens? Let’s broaden the focus from how the child processes information to how the child is doing in his/her life.

All week I have written about discipline and asked you please, not to spank your kids. That brings us to the primary question, how can we get our kids to listen?

Our children will teach us what we need to learn for our self-growth, if we listen. In every moment that the child doesn't listen, there is an opportunity for us to self-reflect.

I wish it would be clear to parents that hitting children does much more harm than good. Spanking is not an effective way to teach children good behaviour.

Ask yourself whether the way you discipline your children draws them closer to you or further away? Discipline can be based on loving connection, which can strengthen a child.

As parents we have a long list of concerns about our children. We see them in various physical, emotional and behavioural challenges and want to help them as best we can.

It can be hard to grasp the degree to which our children know our inner worlds. They may not know it in their minds but they can feel exactly what’s going on.

I have some things to say from a health perspective about the commandment, "Respect your elders".

Imagine if you had a toolkit customized to your child that could support him/her though the physical and emotional stressors?

People spend a lot of energy teaching kids how to behave well. Children are told what to do, how to do it, what not to do etc.

“That mine!” - followed by a tantrum. Well, that’s just terrible two’s.

How often to do you put away your phone and other distractions and be fully present with your child?

When someone in the family makes a big shift in his/her health, the benefits help everyone else too. Poor health has a dragging-like quality and when it lifts, there is more space to connect and to thrive.
