Alternate therapies for treating ADHD

clipped from: www.gjfreepress.com   
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is being diagnosed in 4-20 percent of school children, depending on locality, with four million as an overall figure for the United States as of the year 2000.

There are three common themes, impulsiveness, distractibility, and hyperactivity

For many children the real nature of the condition is “toxic brain syndrome,” induced by overwhelming environmental and dietary toxins, food additives and drugs, couple with poor nutrition

Grape seed extract is known to help ADHD, because it neutralizes many of these dangerous free radicals.

Homeopathy offers dramatic help. The remedies listed here may provide some real and permanent change.

Anacardium (marking nut)

Hyoscyamus - (Henbane)

Stramonium - (Thorn apple)

Tarentula (Spanish Tarantula)

Tuberculin

Veratrum album (white Hellebore)

3 Stages of Grief Work

Everyone goes through some type of loss. This must be grieved if we are to heal from it.


Grief is an inevitable part of life. For some, it's a relatively quick journey lasting a few months; for others, a journey that may take years to complete. Working through the grief stages is frequently referred to as "grief work."


  • facing the reality of loss



  • working through painful memories



  • experiencing the full range of emotions associated with loss



  • coping with the situational and lifestyle changes resulting from the loss



  • adapting to the loss, and reconfiguring their own life

  • The Stages of Grief

    Stage 1: "Acclimation and Adjustment"

    Stage 2: "Emotional Immersion and Deconstruction"

    Stage 3: "Reclamation and Reconciliation"

    Talking about "recovering" from grief is almost disrespectful, as life is never restored to the way it was before the loss of someone close.

    I REPEAT - Anxiety, panic attacks, OCD and phobias ARE NOT illnesses. They are NEITHER mental nor physical illnesses. They are behavioral conditions which have resulted from an adjustment in the subconscious mind in the Amygdala.
    The Amygdala, like a light switch, is either anxiety ON or anxiety OFF and under normal circumstances this is only triggered when REAL danger exists. In anxiety conditions, the 'switch' gets artificially stuck in the ON position, causing constant anxiety symptoms even when no REAL danger exists.

    What fear would you like to erase?

    OK, you might not want to say it out loud publicly but wouldn't it be nice if we could erase our fears from our memories? Or should we? One research study suggests we can alter the impact that fears have on our while they are still "vulnerable" to editing. This could help us become less dependent on pharmacological treatments!

    Recalling a frightening moment or event can be unsettling as your body revisits the sense of danger and panic you first experienced, and the frequent recurrence of these recollections can even lay a foundation for anxiety disorders. Yet, according to new research from the department of psychology at New York University, there may actually be a way to rewrite these "fear memories" to extract the sting of panic and discomfort. Previous research into long-term memory has found that, with "extinction training"—which involves re-living a frightening experience in a safe environment—psychologists are able to help people suppress fear memories. Yet, even with this technique, stressful situations can still cause that memory, and the emotions associated with it, to come surging back. What researchers found in this latest study, however, was that in the period just after a memory is recollected, and before it is "reconsolidated" back into our mind's memory bank, it may be vulnerable to editing.
