Protecting our Children's Health/Sensative skin issues
1) Emotional support, LISTEN and hug, it boosts their immune
system and yours!
2) Clean air-a HEPA filter on your furnace and unit in bedroom
can do wonders (remove dust collectors,
carpet, replace blinds with shades, use HEPA vacuum or whole
house unit to decrease dust mites &
irritants, no smoking around children, replace air freshners,
cleaners with ones without chemicals or
synthetics that irritate lung tissue, candles with metal in wick
can have lead! Best cleanser of air is a Diffuser
with therapeutic grade EO's, benefits everyone! will eat toxins
out of the air!
3) Clean water-now one must filter water to be safe, a whole
house filter is best or start with one in kitchen.
Bottled water is not always best either. Young Living now has one
of the best water filters for the money.
4) Food enzymes-microwaving destroys the enzymes you need to
digest food, supplement with Megazyme
or try to cook on the stove, eat more fresh veggies & fruit
5) Anything on skin is absorbed, read labels, avoid saccharin,
Aspartame (NutraSweet-toxic to brain), DEA,
TEA, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Propylene Glycol, Aluminum, Mineral
oil, Talc, Fluoride
6) Use lotions, shampoos of more natural origin, the body stores
the toxins for years!
7) Nutritional supplements-know good quality, don't shop by
price. Better ones absorb more into the body so
you get more for your money. EO's make them even more absorbed
into the actual cell and not out in the
urine. Trace minerals from our soils are becoming depleted, we
all need to supplement the basics for proper
metabolic function. Learning disabilities can be a mineral
difficiency. Essential Fatty acids in fish, Evening
Primrose oil. Protect against viruses with Oregano or Olive leaf
supplements. ProHealth at
immunesupport.com has good quality. Don't trust Health Food
stores, they are in it for the money. Young
Living is the best formulations and is used by several doctors I
know. They even have the healthy electrical
frequency the body needs to stay healthy!
8) Exercise-limit sedentary time, computer use, eye strain.
Encourage more books and interactive games.
9) Wear a helmet! Protective gear for sports. Sore muscles from
soccer respond well to Sulfurzyme
supplement and OrthoEase massage oil.
10) Teach your child the importance of prayer according to your
own beliefs, knowing they have Spiritual
Helpers, Angels, Jesus, God-(who you want them to know) can help
them in times they are not with you. We
believe in God's Angels!
11) Adopt an elderly person, reach out to others in need will
help make them feel special
12) Some health issues are from a build up in the colon or
sluggish liver-acne, eczema, PMS, ADD, see
Desk Reference for Essential Oils for specifics for your child
13) Fiber-most of us do not get enough, try growing your own
garden.
14) Pets can aggravate allergies but a great companions and teach
responsibility Keep them out of the
bedroom or try fish.
15) A simple routine, enough rest at night, quiet activities
before bed, Peace&Calming diffused or as a
massage calms and helps with growing pains, hyperactivity.
16) Limit soda-they can pull mineral from your body and keep your
child from getting the fruit juice or milk
they need. (Try milk without growth hormones if possible or don't
give more milk than they really need per
day.) Hormones in our food promote obesity and premature breast
development even in boys.
17)Non-toxic toothpaste, your mouth absorbs more quickly than
your stomach, YLO Dentarome has no
toxins, is safe & effective, just a bit strong to get used
to. Sore throats-spray with Fresh Essence mouthwash
to kill germs and heal faster. Use daily to prevent, dilute for
small children.
18) Give them chores, positive rewards, let them give you a foot
rub, the oils will benefit both and teach them
how to make someone purr!
19) Feng Shui their room, the desk in the knowledge corner if
possible.
20) Relax and have fun with your kids. Don't over concern
yourself with any one thing. Its about balance and
sanity, not deprivation. We do not know how many tomorrow we have
so make the best of our todays!
