The health of our children is a really good example of the health of our world. If the number of children currently being diagnosed with physical, mental and emotional disorders is any indication, we are in trouble as a society and a planet. Before accepting any of these diagnoses, take the time to examine your child's health. Ask your pediatrician or naturopathic doctor to order blood work or a hair analysis to determine vitamin and mineral deficiencies and/or heavy metal toxicity. Examine your child's diet for one week. Review this information and set up a plan that will bring your child back into balance. If health supplements are needed, purchase products through a reputable company. Make sure the supplements you are giving your child are wholesome and without chemical additives.

Holistic Options for Children and Families
The vision behind the creation of the Learning Connection Holistic Center is to provide a holistic center with the intent to expand the world of holistic health to future generations.
When we recognize that learning is a lifelong experience, we can then accept that occasional gaps or feelings of inadequacy may surface at any age. These feelings of being "less than" or "not worthy" may begin with negative thoughts, such as "I'm stupid, or I can't do it, or No one likes me." These thoughts can quickly become deeply felt belief patterns. Negative thought patterns often lead to negative behavior patterns and negative behavior patterns will affect your daily life by surfacing in such areas as work or school performance, relationships, attitude, anger, inability to focus, concentrate or manage emotional outbursts, weight issues and even stress, anxiety or panic attacks - and that's just the beginning.
There are many drug free treatment options for these symptoms. However, in order to truly bring your life back into balance, the root cause must be identified. Where and when did this self-defeating belief and behavior begin?
The traditional medical field will tell you that they can "fix" your problems. They can give you one or two or maybe more little pills to help you feel better, be less depressed, focus on your work or school, control your outbursts, help you sleep (because the other pills will keep you awake), and any number of other symptoms. What they don't tell you are the side-effects, some life threatening, that go with taking these drugs.
In February of 2006, the FDA convened a pediatric panel to study whether the drugs prescribed for ADD and ADHD presented any health risk after long-term usage. The evaluation team not only confirmed the danger in long term usage of these drugs, they recommended that a "black box warning label" be included with every prescription. The FDA chose not to follow this panels recommendations and instead, brought in a second panel one month later. The second panel reached the same conclusions the original panel had. Not only did these drugs pose a health hazard, that hazard was severe enough to warrant the "black box warning label."
It wasn't until February of 2007 that the FDA finally chose to follow these recommendations and advised all manufacturers of these medications to include this "black box warning label" with all prescriptions. Many drugs currently being prescribed to children have not been approved for use by anyone under the age of 18.
Don't be afraid to ask potent questions before taking these medications. Ask - Is this medication approved by the FDA, and if so, for what conditions? Ask - Has it been authorized for use by children and adolescents? Ask - What are the medications short-term and long-term risks or benefits? Ask - How long will my child be on this medication? Ask - Are there any possible drug interactions with other prescriptions or OTC medications? Ask - Are there any foods that my child should avoid while taking this medication? Ask - Could these symptoms be caused by anything else? Ask - Can we do blood work to check my child's blood sugar, thyroid, nutrient or mineral levels? Ask - Are there any side-effects I should be looking for? Ask - Will my child go through a withdrawl period if I stop giving these drugs?
No matter what society has labeled you or your child, know that there are practitioners on your side. Practitioners that will create an individual, focused treatment plan that includes a spirit guided and heart felt combination of intuitive hypnosis, guided imagery, life coaching or one of several other holistic practices. This is the first step to empowering and motivating you, your child and your family with the desire to achieve your personal best.
Now is the time to get Back 2 Basics - the 3 R's - instead of focusing on Reading, wRiting and aRithmatic - we work together and involve you in your own well-being. You are shown the path to Remove Labels, Rebuild Self-Esteem and Recognize the Greatness in You and Your Child.
What does all that mean? It means you will discover a balance in your life, with your child and in your home, learning or business environment that is calmer, more focused, happier and more productive with a better sense of balance and overall well-being than you have experienced in the past.
Children and adults can permanently remove these age old negative thought patterns. By "erasing the blackboard" each person is empowered and motivated with the desire and ability to "rewrite their story" and thus fill their consciousness with loving, positive, and confidence building thought patterns.
Everyone is born with their own inner light - Rediscover yours and that of your child – you are never alone - working together we can bridge the gap in learning. Let us show you how you can let your light shine!
