[AlternativeAnswers] Entrainment: The Synchronicity of Life

 

Good Morning!

Entrainment: The Synchronicity of Life

Musically, entrainment invloves the "merging with, or synchronizing to, the pulse of the music". This principle is related to the isomorphic principle which states that one's mood should be matched to the mood of the music and then gradually moved into the desired direction. The principle of entrainment is universal. Appearing in chemistry, pharmacology, biology, medicine, psychology, sociology, astronomy, architecture and more. The classic example shows individual pulsing heart muscle cells. When they are brought close together, they begin pulsing in synchronicity. Another example of the entrainment effect is women who live in the same household often find that their menstrual cycles will coincide.

The entrainment process is quite evident in music. It is possible to have rhythmic entrainment, melodic entrainment and dynamic entrainment. Entrainment music has the potential to (1) resonate with the listener's feelings, (2) transform negativity into positive, and (3) promote a state of liveliness or serenity. Certain sounds, in specific sequence can help bring the listener from one place to another.

Entrainment is the tendency of two oscillating bodies to lock into phase, so that they vibrate in harmony.

The following are great tools for entrainment: 


Music Therapy Tools

1. Affirmations: Music and words represent an integration of text, melody, rhythm and voice and are the many reasons that ses musical affirmations apart from just words. Using these types of affirmations can give you the power to think positively, remove barriers to prosperity, minimize stress and create pathways to love and confidence. Today's non-stop, high-stress world means our minds are constantly in the beta or unreceptive state. This is where the mind's mental energy fires neurons at random. Musical affirmations will return your mind to the alpha (receptive) state. This state is where the neurons fire in harmony. Where the positive message of the affirmations can be absorbed effectively by the conscious and subconscious mind due to the power enhancing affects of a musical accompaniment.

2. Mind Quieting: A disciplined mind is a free mind. Gain control over your thoughts and you maintain control over your life. Retrain your mind and you regain your freedom. Calming the mind is a behavioral technique used to interupt, minimize and eliminate "psychological noise". Obsessive, repeatitive thoughts, anxiety and fears are all apart of negative, self-destructive patterns that can benefit from the power of music and mind quieting.

3. Breathing : Breath is life! Exchange of electrons. Flow of energy. Air is the primary nutrient. Survival without it is measured in minutes. It is so important that you do it without thinking. Your breathing is the voice of your spirit. It's depth, smoothness, sound, and rate reflect your mood. If you become aware of your breath and breathe the way you do when you are calm you will become calm. Practicing regular, mindful breathing can be calming and energizing. With the addition of music and it's rhythm, the "musical breath" can even help stress-related health problems ranging from panic attacks to digestive disorders.  Fall into the rhythm of the music and breathe. Focus on your breathing and the music.

4. Mantras : No one can fully explain the mystery of mantras. Their magical sounds help heal physical imbalances, relax the mind, quiet the emotions, and open the heart. They were created to remind us that love, laughter, and inner peace belong to us. They help us go beyond borders, realize our potential, and celebrate the power of love. They stimulate, activate, motivate, and rejuvenate. Mantras can help you dance or sleep, laugh or cry, make love or meditate, turn tedious housework or heavy exercise into light-hearted fun. They can help you forget someone or find someone. Mantras offer increased flexibility and strength while they gently expand your consciousness, and help you experience love, compassion, and inner peace.

5. Chanting : Chanting begins with an invocation or a prayer, a group OM, or some small line of remembrance that connects everyone to a higher source. To learn chanting has a healthy strengthening effect on the mind; it develops concentration, patience and determination. So, almost any word group, or even sounds, can be used although the emphasis should be on goodness. Try repeating the word 'love' a thousand time over. Creating a connection to Self is the goal of chanting, and the process is meant to be inclusive and fun.

6. Toning : Toning with your own voice can improve health, greatly reduce stress, release negative emotions, strengthen immune system, increase energy, improve self-confidence, enhance memory and creativity, transform relationships, accelerate natural healing help you ascend to new dimensions of reality. Toning is the basis process of "letting go" of basic, natural sounds to attain a sense of balance, harmony and centering. Some examples of natural toning include: yawning, moaning, crying, sighing or screaming. The release of these natural tones result in the harmonizing of emotions, mind and body.

7. Drumming: Research has shown that drumming can actually strengthen the immune system, create a calming focus and is even hypnotic. A steady rhythm on the drum connects us to the heart. The healing effects have been shown to improve conditions of Alzheimer's, autism, trauma and emotional disturbances.

[AlternativeAnswers] Power Over Type 2 Diabetes: Thinking Outside the Box

 

Good Morning!


Power Over Type 2 Diabetes: Thinking Outside the Box
 
Diabetes is the result of a metabolic disorder in which blood sugar (glucose) levels are above normal. A fasting blood sugar test measures the amount of sugar (glucose) in your blood after you fast for eight hours. Your fasting blood sugar is normal if it's 70 mg/dL to 100 mg/dL.

If your fasting blood sugar is 100 mg/dL to 125 mg/dL, you may have prediabetes.
A fasting blood sugar value by itself doesn't help distinguish between type 1 and type 2 diabetes. But a fasting blood glucose of 126 mg/dL or higher is consistent with either type 1 or type 2 diabetes when accompanied by classic symptoms of diabetes.

Symptoms of diabetes include increased thirst or hunger, frequent urination, weight loss or blurred vision. Your doctor may repeat this and other tests on a different day to confirm their diagnosis. Complications from diabetes include serious heart complications, loss of limb, kidney failure and blindness.

Type II (adult-onset) older adults, is less severe, not autoimmune in origin, and often can be controlled by maintaining normal weight and eating sensibly or by taking oral medication. The goal of adult-onset diabetics should be to avoid insulin shots and other prescribed medication altogether, keeping the disease in control by adhering to a healthy lifestyle.
 
Not all carbohydrate foods are created equal; in fact they behave quite differently in our bodies. The glycemic index or GI describes this difference by ranking carbohydrates according to their effect on our blood glucose levels. Choosing low GI carbs - the ones that produce only small fluctuations in our blood glucose and insulin levels - is the secret to long-term health reducing your risk of heart disease and diabetes and is the key to sustainable weight loss.
 
Glycemic Index Range
Low GI = 55 or less
Medium GI = 56 - 69
High GI = 70 or more
 
Glycemic Load Range
Low GL = 10 or less
Medium GL = 11- 19
High GL = 20 or more
 
Glycemic Load Per Day
Low GL < 80
High GL > 120
 
Foods with a high GI score contain rapidly digested carbohydrate, which produces a large rapid rise and fall in the level of blood glucose (this is not good). In contrast, foods with a low GI score contain slowly digested carbohydrate, which produces a gradual, relatively low rise in the level of blood glucose (this is good). 
 
Think Outside the Box
The one size fits all approach does not apply to diabetes. Our bodies and the way we process life, (food, stress, and emotions) can all come into play when coping with the highs and lows of blood sugar. Learning to control your levels of insulin will depend on some detective work on your part. Being diagnosed with diabetes can be a scary wake-up call, but by empowering your life and taking back your control, this is the best approach you have to reverse this!
 
There is no resigning, when it comes to empowering your life.  It is up to you to find answers and solutions that will help YOU.  I always tell my patients not to take the back seat. Learn what makes you feel good. Discover just how you feel after eating certain foods or drinking certain beverages.  Body awareness is very important in managing diabetes. See you doctor regularly. Signs and symptoms can arise that may seem completely unrelated, when in fact they could be. Do not allow your pride or ego to get in the way of your physical health.
 
Keep a Journal
 
For the first 30 days of your new empowerment, start writing things down. Not only does this make for a good reference, but allows you to look back on certain aspects of your day, your diet or signs and symptoms that may come up.  Date each day of your journal and start with 3 entries, morning, midday and evening.  Explain how you felt when you woke up, what you had for breakfast (and at what time), bowel habits, moods you experience and so forth. Rate your sleep from last night.  Midday is when you can record your lunch or eating habits (bad and good), if you needed a midday nap or if you felt more energy.  When evening comes, sit down with a cup of your favorite tea (see below) and express how your day was for you.  Especially note the meal you enjoyed, the emotions you experience throughout the day (and why) and just take this time to express yourself.  Did you exercise this day?  Write it down and add what you did for exercise.  Did you find yourself dealing with high or low energy this day?  Do you feel satisfied with what and how you ate? 
 
Record your activities for 30 days.  This is your homework.  Then after the 30 days, look back. What did you gain from this experiment?  How has this helped you?  How did it hinder you?  Are you willing to journal again for the 15 or 30 more days?
 
 
Exploring Foods
 
Experiment actively with diet, with the frequency and size of meals, and with all aspects of lifestyle to lower the amount of insulin required. This means taking on a lot of responsibility for your own health. A task you can absolutely achieve.
 
I offer my patients my Full Spectrum Diet. This easy to use system monitors healthy weight by the colors of food on your plate!  For those coping with diabetes, my number one suggestion is to: avoid the white food color group. These have more of a tendency to spike blood sugar levels to an unhealthy high, too quickly.
 
-Use breakfast cereals based on oats, barley and bran
-Use breads with whole grains, stone-ground flour, sour dough
-Reduce the amount of potatoes you eat
-Enjoy all other types of fruit and vegetables
-Use Basmati, Doongara or Japanese koshihikari rice
-Enjoy whole grain pasta, whole grain noodles, quinoa
-Eat plenty of salad vegetables with a vinaigrette dressing
-Incorporate good fats like nuts and olive oil
-It is ok to use low-fat dairy foods, in the morning
- Note: these red-orange foods (Watermelon, Carrots, Cantaloupe) are in the med-high GI range, so one cup will do.
 
Incorporate these wonderful herbs to enhance the flavor of all your foods: billberry, basil, chives, cinnamon, dill, fenugreek, garlic, ginseng (Panax, Korean, American) oregano, parsley, rosemary, stevia, thyme.
 
Blood sugar regulators include: alanine, banaba, beta-glucan, bitter melon, chromium piccolate, guggul, gymnema, rehmannia.
 
A diet combined with both insoluble fiber (fiber that doesn't dissolve in water) will keep most people regular. You get fiber from eating lots of vegetables, wheat bran, whole-grain breads and cereals and fruit.
 
An apple can regulate blood sugar levels. Apples contain naturally-occurring chemical compounds known as phytochemicals, polyphenols, or flavonoids, some of which have been proven to have antioxidant activity that inhibits, or scavenges, the activity of free radicals in the body. Cell damage from free radicals can be a factor in certain cancers, heart disease, strokes, and other conditions. The major antioxidant components in apples are polyphenols contained mainly in the skin known as quercetin glycoside, phloretin glycoside, chlorogenic acid, and epicatechin.
 
Best fruit choices for diabetics: fruits belong to berry family are good choice for diabetics as these are considered to be diabetic friendly. Blueberries, boysenberries, raspberries, cranberries, strawberries all help to control insulin levels, improve liver function and maintain blood glucose levels. Including one cup of any of these berries is sufficient to control diabetes each day. By including half cup of grapefruit every day, this can also help to stabilize blood glucose levels. Fruits belong to cherry family are also healthy options for diabetics. At least 10 to 12 cherries are sufficient per day to control glucose levels in the blood. Pears, peaches and grapes aree low in the glycemic index, rich in potassium, fiber, Vitamin C and Vitamin A and are also great choices for diabetics.
 
Extend your nutrient throughout the day with three main meals and three snacks. Small portions or servings as opposed to one or two "gorged meals" not only reduces blood glucose and insulin concentrations, but also guards against the development of hyperglycemia. Consumption of fiber rich foods, barley, carrots, oats, legumes, beans, onions, peas, and lentils, have been associated with improved blood glucose control, and are better for long term use than soluble fiber supplements such as guar, pectin, and locust bean gum.
 
Research has discovered a whole range of plants with hypoglycemic action. Among them are artichoke, banana, barley, cabbage, carrot, lettuce, nettles, oats, peas, spinach, sweet potato, and turnip.
 
 
 
 
 
Herb That Work and Solutions To Get You There
 
This should go without say, but, if you are currently on medication for diabetes, it is important that you run the following choices by your doctor.  Some herbs can enhance or hinder your medications and are contraindicated. 
 
Ampalaya (Momordica charantia), also known as bitter melon is an herb that has long been known in as one of the best anti-hyperglycemic herbs and has proven itself beyond doubt as effective against diabetes. Ampalaya has a potent mix of flavonoids and alkaloids that are believed to make the pancreas either produce more insulin, make the body more sensitive to insulin already produced, and/or generate new beta cell populations at the Islets of Langerhans.
 
Solution: You can take ampalaya in tablets and tea or prepare this melon by cutting off both ends. Cut in half lengthwise. With a spoon, scape out the seeds and membranes. Cut into thin slices, place the sliced ampalaya in a bowl and sprinkle with sea salt. Toss to coat every piece of ampalaya with sea salt. Leave for at least 30 minutes. Squeeze out the juice, rinse and drain.
 
 
Banaba (Lagerstroemia speciosa), is now gaining momentum and widespread acceptance, even in the western medical circles. Medical research and clinical trials performed on this miraculous herb show that Banaba possesses the powerful compound corosolic acid that lends itself to the treatment of diabetes. Medications for diabetes such as anti-diabetes drugs, may interact with Banaba.
 
Solution: Banaba is used as a medicinal herbal tea for the treatment of diabetes not only in India but also in the Philippines. Steep a teaspoon of leaves per cup of tea. Drink 4 - 6 cups per day.
 
 
Billberries are rich in flavonoids, the pigment that gives plants their color and is very beneficial for treating diabetes. Billberries are help retinopathy and micro vascular abnormalities. It strengthens capillaries in the body and protect them from damage. Since complications of long-term diabetes include damage to the small blood vessels in the eyes, kidneys, and tips of the toes and fingers, bilberry is often recommended.
 
Solution: Billberries can be found in tea and capsules. The berry is recommended for people with diabetes. The berries do not lower blood sugar, but their constituents may help improve the strength and integrity of blood vessels and reduce damage to these vessels associated with diabetes and other diseases. Use 1 teaspoon crushed, dried berries to each teaspoon of water. Bilberry is a great tasting tea, and blends well with spices like cinnamon or with other berries.
 
 
Fenugreek Seed has been shown to reduce glucose levels in type 2 diabetes and may help do so in type 1 (insulin dependent) diabetes. Modern research indicates that fenugreek seeds not only lower blood glucose, but also reduce insulin levels, total cholesterol, and triglycerides, while increasing HDL (the "good" cholesterol). Fenugreek seeds contain 50 percent fiber, which serves to slow down the rate at which food is emptied from the stomach. This delays absorption of glucose by the small intestine, resulting in lower blood sugar.
 
Solution: Fenugreek seeds are mostly used toasted, which enhances their acrid taste. Due to their powerful flavor, they are used in small amounts. Dry roasted seeds have a slight nutty taste with a light brown color. They are used to create a pleasant flavor sprinkled over vegetable and lentil dishes.
 
 
Ginseng (Panax, Korean, American) has been shown to moderate levels of blood sugar (glucose). Ginseng improves the ability of insulin to properly regulate in our system. Because it is an adaptogen, this allows ginseng to help the body cope with all sorts of adverse conditions.
 
Solution: Ginseng root is typically chewed or boiled in water to make a tea or soup. Measure 1 teaspoon of chopped ginseng root per cup of tea. Add the ginseng to two cups of water and allow to simmer for 30 minutes. Cool and drink. Flavor to taste with Stevia (see below). The ginseng root will get soft and may be eaten. Drain from water and serve in salads or as an appetizer spread over a whole grain crackers.
 
 
Gymnema (Gymnema sylvestre) This Ayurvedic remedy is one of the most common herbs used in the treatment of both Types 1 and 2 diabetes. Gymnema appears to stimulate the pancreas, prompting it to produce more insulin. Gymnemic acid, a constituent of the herb, acts directly on the tongue receptors (taste buds), blocking their ability to sense sweetness.
 
Solution: Gymnema is taken as 500 mg capsules standardized to contain at least 25% gymnemic acid. They should be taken 5 to 10 minutes before a main meal with a large glass of water. Gymnema tea is another way to enjoy this herb. Use loose leaf organic gymnema tea. To make up a cup, simply add a heaped teaspoon to a French press or tea strainer and add hot water. Other tea can also be added, like green tea which has its own beneficial properties for weight loss.
 
 
Stevia is a South American shrub whose leaves have been used by native people in Paraguay and Brazil to sweeten their stimulant beverages. Stevioside, the main ingredient in stevia, has no calories but has actions similar to several currently used medications.  It stimulates the release of insulin and normalizes the response to glucose, especially in type 2 diabetes.
 
Solution: Add a few drops of liquid Stevia or a pinch of powdered Stevia to your tea or coffee. You can bake with it, sprinkle it over fruit or use were ever you need a little sweetness.  A little goes a long way!

[AlternativeAnswers] Our Pineal Gland

 

Greetings to my beloved Morning Message family May 17, 2016
 
_________ Message from the 'Team' _________ 

Your Personal Stargate
Peggy Black and the 'team'

We are here, honored once again to connect in this manner. We offer you our gratitude as well as our acknowledgment for who you are, true multidimensional divine conscious beings embraced in a physical form. 

We are aware that your physical form demands much of your attention; however, we continue to remind you of your unlimited ability to expand outside any limited beliefs.

You physical vehicle was designed, so to speak, to support a human dense existence and experience while being aware of yourself as conscious light and energy. 

Many individuals are becoming aware of themselves as this conscious light and energy. This is the evolution taking place within the collective consciousness. People are awakening and realizing that they are much more than they ever imagined or were ever told.

More and more information is coming forth concerning aspects of the physical body that are key activators in expanded consciousness. Throughout time your mystics and sages have addressed these various activators within the structure of the body.   

One very important gateway to higher awakened consciousness is the small mysterious pinecone shaped gland located in the center of your head. It is nestled between the left and right hemispheres of the brain, directly behind the center of your forehead between your eyes. 

It is a part of your endocrine system. It regulates the neurochemicals responsible for wake/sleep patterns, reproduction, body temperature, various biorhythms as well as moods and states of wellbeing. This gland, called the pineal, is also responsible for the biological clock that determines your aging process.

Even though it is located in the depths of your brain, which is completely dark, it has rods and cones similar to the retina of your eye. You might wonder why your body created this gland with light detecting cells if there was no light to be detected. Perhaps the ancient ones, your sages, your mystics, knew the power of this gland when it was often spoken of as the third eye.   

This small mysterious gland is the intermediary gate that bridges your physical and spiritual experiences here on earth. Mystics have often referred to it as the seat of the soul. Throughout your history, all cultures have connected this pineal gland with enlightenment and spiritual awareness, the link between the human and the divine.
 
For millennia, this has been hidden information. Ancient civilizations, secret societies and mystery schools were aware that this gland was responsible for spiritual enlightenment and visions during near-death, psychedelic and mystical experiences. 

Most humans are totally unaware of the functions and abilities of this significant gland. This pinecone shaped gland has been expressed in sacred art and architecture around the world. Begin to investigate, for this information is available and will certainly expand your understanding of the importance of this personal stargate throughout the history of your planet. 

All cultures have acknowledged this mysterious gateway to the higher realms of truth with the symbol of the pinecone representing the pineal gland and its sacred place in the history of your mystics, shamans, secret organizations and societies, as well as the religions throughout your world.  

This information was hidden from humanity as a form of power and control by the elite. However, this is shifting as more and more individuals are awakening to their own understanding of who they really are, divine conscious beings who can connect to other divine beings, both physical and non-physical, as well as travel to other dimensions and realms. 

Consider that this pineal gland is perhaps responsible for pictures internally seen when you imagine, or the dream images when you sleep, or even out-of-body or spiritual occurrences. Perhaps the pineal gland is responsible for the skill of remote viewing that allows someone to see images or events at a different location than where they are, or clairvoyance, which is the ability to see images and energy not visible to the human eye.

You might even say that when your pineal is fully functioning, it is like a satellite dish which connects you to the galaxy. It is the stargate that allows you to travel beyond this reality. It is the transducer of energy; it is the interface between your multidimensional divine self and your physical presence. 

As you begin to become more aware of the history of this small gland hidden deep within the structure of your brain, you can begin to activate its true function. You can begin to spend some time focused on activating all of the awesome abilities it offers for your personal enlightenment, your multidimensional gifts and the doorway of your connection to the stars and the mysteries. 

Unfortunately, this small gland can and does become calcified and sluggish. The calcification of the pineal gland happens as the human begins to age. This is usually due to lifestyle and the patterns within your collective consciousness. 

Your society has grown accustomed to instant and processed foods. The fluoride in your drinking water as well as a diet laden with preservatives, chemicals and pesticides contributes to the calcification of this tiny gland. This calcification or sluggishness can be one of the factors of poor sleep, premature aging, biorhythms being out of sync, erratic mood swings or the inability to activate all your paranormal abilities.  

So the effort of healthy eating and drinking water free of fluoride is certainly a beginning. Restoring your body to a more alkaline base rather than an acidic base will also be a positive factor. Make a point each day to be in the sunshine, without protective sunglasses, because sunlight stimulates this gland. 

We know that when you begin your investigation regarding this powerful little stargate, you will discover many other suggestions of diets and herbs, as well as your seaweed, that will contribute to restoring your pineal gland to its rightful and effective role in your personal expansion.

Sound vibrations will also activate this gland. Chanting aloud is an excellent technique for opening and activating you pineal. Practice and play with the many tones, chants or sound vibrations that will stimulate, open and balance your third eye stargate. 

You are very magnificent; remember this as you begin to focus on this small yet remarkable aspect of your physical form. Your pineal will begin to respond to your mindset, focus, attention and intention. It is time that this personal stargate, doorway, and portal is made available to you in your true awakening.

We are here to support that awakening process within you. We continue to remind you of who you are and how valuable you are as a representative of the stars. Call upon us as well as other beings of light and truth. the 'team'

RE: [AlternativeAnswers] Bach Remedies, Australian Flower Remedies, and other ideas for ADHD

 

Hello, Good Afternoon J

 

I am ADHD and Dyslexic, I'm sorry I haven't written yet but I needed to collect my thoughts for an answer for a while. I thought I would list some of the techniques that work for me.

 

    Bach and Australian Flower Remedies have helped me for over 20 years, there are also other type flower remedies besides these. There are several Homeopathic Remedies that help with stress, short or long term. They may at times need daily (sometimes hourly) changes, but once you get into a routine it's not difficult to figure them out. These can be put in bottles of water so they can be taken discreetly ( like at school or just out in public). You can buy kits (homeopathic, tiny pellets, for bottles or bigger pellets for under the tongue)  and sets (Bach flowers, bottles of drops) to make your own bottles of remedies which in the long run saves hundreds of dollars. I've had my Bach Flower kit over 15 years, the only base remedy I will need more of at some point is Rescue Remedy.

    There are many new forms of Bach's out now especially for children. Bottles of remedies usually have alcohol base (for preservation) but it's such a small percent you wouldn't notice when drops are placed in glasses or bottles of water, there are some available without alcohol base if that's a concern. Try a few out from the health store first, to see what you think. I started with Rescue Remedy, this works on emergency stress situations. They have many forms of Rescue Remedy for kids too.

 

Meditation is a tremendous help. There are so many types you can check into. She can even create her own meditations, it's simply writing sentences about what you like, want to try doing, or what you wish to bring into your life, then you read it out loud to yourself as you relax. Doing this at a time of rest before bed time works best to calm her mind for sleep. Working towards positive thought lets go of stressful negative thought, a must in the way society is formed now, so many forms of pressure out there, (a lot of it is social, which can be difficult for all, no matter what the age).

 

A fun form of daily exercise helps the body and mind regulate itself, it releases toxin build up, helping tremendously with sleep. Don't exercise in the 4 hours before bedtime as it causes an adrenaline flow, much better to exercise in the morning or during the day time to even out our adrenaline system. Exercise cuts down on those highs and lows of adrenaline energies, clearing our thought process.        

    I do sets of stretching, exercise, weight lifting, throughout my day, and I like to watch movies while I use the treadmill.

 

    Diet, veggies, fruit, I eat small amounts of meat, no processed foods to avoid chemicals, nothing fried, no processed sugar. I admit, I am guilty of eating french fries once a week and I love making fruit pies. J Balancing the body naturally is important. It's also fun to grow vegetables, home grown tastes so different and much better. Organic costs a little more if you can't grow things, but so worth it. Our bodies are not made to digest chemicals that companies put in, or on our food, especially fast food, and other restaurants, YUCK! (I could talk about a year on that alone, google chicken products made in China for sale in USA and other countries) Chemicals just stay inside us, building up and eventually causing health problems, especially diet soda and diet food.

    My favorite foods are salads with a combination of veggies, fruits, and nuts, with a small amount of homemade dressing. It's very easy to make a healthy dressing, it only takes a few minutes and lasts about a week in the fridge. (I find many vegetarian salads and side recipes online.)

 

    Many ADHD medications cause more problems than they help. My Daughter in Law refused to put my Grandson on meds, (I was so glad!) it was difficult at first but he does so much better every year. At some point we have to learn to live our lives without meds (if possible, I know that varies from person to person). Please don't judge yourself for your choices or decisions in handling this situation, it can be very difficult to find the right answers for you (her), just keep going. Notice I didn't name this as a problem, if you do it remains a problem, I call it a situation, because a situations always have the potential to change.

    We need to always create change in life, that's how we keep growing, and stay vibrant.

 

    Discovering her personality traits will help, her likes, dislikes, what she does well in life, practicing these will give her a solid base of confidence to work with, and expand on. She's probably so intelligent she is far ahead of those her age, that can be so difficult for children.

    Changing direction to finding our creative gifts, and creating our gifted lives, instead of listening to people, and Doctors telling us what is "wrong" with us is key. I found I'm an introvert, and I'm an artist, which is difficult in it's own right. I think and learn better alone.

    School was a disaster for me (even though I tested high) except in art classes. I have a business on my own now, selling on the internet. We all have a wonderfully, happy, special place in this world, we just have to find it. Ted Talks online all have amazing advise.

 

A friend once gave me the advice she found, to have the head of my bed at the North wall of my room, I sleep much better that way. I have no electric appliances except a lamp on the other side of the room.

 

    Best wishes to you and your daughter, research will reward you with many answers. Take your time, become a partner with her in these decisions. Incorporate discoveries into your lives one at a time, avoid creating additional stress by bringing in too many changes at once. It takes about two weeks for a change to take effect.

    I keep a journal and make lists so I can refer back to them. I find it easier to remember things when I list them, menus for the week, house chores for the week, business decisions, on and on. It's a tremendous help, saves so much time, and focuses my creative energy flowing where I wish it to go.

 

I agree with many of the others suggestions made here, what a great, thoughtful group!
