Where to start?

[Guest guest]

Pat,

With the history of her beloved father committing suicide when she was 10,

I'd say there is likely to be some traumatic material under all this. The

anger and depression would also go with that. Any physical symptoms?

I would try the following in my first 5 sessions to see how she responded:

1. F3/A1/ground/A2/F4 squash of sum channels (if you have BMScope

working)with eyes closed in a very comfy chair.

2. T3/Fp1/ground, block 3-5 and 23-38 and reward 15-18

3. T4/Fp1/ground, block same and reward 12-14 or 11-15 (if the amplitude is

very low).

4. T3/T4/ground, block same and start rewarding the above frequency, but try

reducing it during the session.

See how she does during and after one session of each of these. Ask mom to

report as well. BTW, did you get an issues checklist from Mom? How did it

differ from hers?

Interesting case. Keep us posted.

Pete

where to start?

Hi Pete, have a new client who is 18, recently graduated with what may

have been a " social promotion " . The assessment comes up with 9 possible

P, a couple possible T or F (sns 31, pns 83), 2 S. Marked 44 issues

with a " 3 " . Balance was 80%, flexibility, control both about 40%,

energy 7%. Central, frontal & parietal all about 40-50%, temporal 17%.

T/B ratio unbalanced to right, frontal alpha imbalance - frontally.

Frontal midline had excessive high beta with alpha slowing.

SM strip t/b ratio high, a/t ratio low

Parietal, L power over right, t/b ratio high, a/t ratio low

Temporal l power over right, t/b ratios high

The assessment tells me the ratios are high in some areas with eyes open

-not eyes closed.

Poor concentration, very poor decision making, teachers call her lazy,

mom feels she could do anything she put her mind to

She's just living with her parents, no job, unsure if she could hold one

at this point. Is angry at least once a day, huge tantrums til 7 or 8.

Very dependent on mom, close with " stepdad " , bio dad committed suicide

when she was 10 (they think he may have been ill), was daddy's girl.

At fz theta is 2.9, al 2.3,beta 1.4

At cz " is 3.2, al 3.1, beta 1.6

fpt-t4 theta is 5.5, al. 4.9, beta 2.5

f3-cp5 theta 3.6, al 3.4, beta 2.1

I see some depression, low self-esteem - her affect is good in the

office, talkative, slow processing questions.

Welcome to the group, Liz!

It's great to hear that your doctor recommended BFL!

I have a great bench at home that I can highly recommend, it's made

by Danskin, here's a link:

http://www.shopsports.com/store/product_display.asp?sku=CSX01455 . It

comes with 3-5-8lb dumbbells and lies completely flat, inclines at

several degrees and sits straight up, and also, if you're careful,

you can use it as a decline bench too.

I found mine at a local sports store, you might look there first to

save on shipping.

Good luck!

The other day when I was in Costco, I saw they had a complete set of

dumbbells with a rack for less than $140, and they also had a couple

different models of benches/home gyms--by far the cheapest I have

seen. I also heard that Target and Walmart have inexpensive basic

equipment. lastly, you can check your local classified ads--I

always see ads for gently used exercise equipment and most of the

sellers just want to get it out their house rather than make back

their money.

Good luck!

Dear Liz;

Good for you doing so well! I used a personal trainer in the

beginning and thought it was a very good investment. I didn't know

anything about working out or using the equipment at the gym. My

suggestion is, if you have any more sessions left with your trainer

that you ask him/her to give you a list of exercises / machines that

are good for you to do on your workouts alone without his/her help.

Your trainer KNOWS your workout and how you've been progressing.

This is a definite advantage that will help you get started on BFL!

Tap into his/her brain of wisdom to guide you as you take the

challenge into you own hands! Trainers are great to have; but can be

costly. I kept my trainer for 2 years and boy, did it burn a whole

in my pocket! But was it worth it, yes! I have no regrets keeping

him that long. I, personnally, needed that " cheerleader, motivator,

drill sergeant " and worst of all, he expected me to loose weight with

each and every week. I needed that " extra " pressure. If I could, I

would hire mine back in a heart beat; but in the meantime, I'll try

to be all those things to myself. I wish you much luck

and " SUCCESS! " on your BFL challenge!

Using a trainer has made all the difference to me. It keeps me

going. I have cut back to once a week with the trainer and twice a

week alone. He wrote up a routine for me to follow. Before I start

the challenge I am going to meet with him to go over the BFL program

and see how to tweak for me. I wish I could continue to work with

him 3 days a week.

Thanks for the words of encouragement.

Thanks. My doctor is doing BFL as well. I hesitated at first but

realized that Atkins was not the best thing for me. I am actually

enjoying the workouts. My trainer is great.

Hi, eidolon43.

Can you give us some clues about your situation? It's a little

difficlut to know what to tell you without knowing something about

your case. Do you have chronic fatigue syndrome? Do you have

fibromyalgia? What are your symptoms? What have you already tried?

Hi All, I am new to the list and never thought I would need to know

all this info about vaccines because I didn't plan on having

children.

I stopped vaccinating all 3 of my dogs 6 years ago after they

developed health issues like hypothyroidism at age 2, and allergies

that got worse year after year etc... I am now 25 weeks pregnant and

I am having a hard enough time trying to decide which cloth diapers

to use let alone to vaccinate or not to vaccinate... Or to do limited

and spaced out vaccines etc... I can not get a grasp on all the

contradicting info I am reading on the internet.

I am also overwhelmed by this list's archives and files section. It

is such great info but it just makes my head spin. Can anyone suggest

a good book I can read? I know that the next 15 weeks are going to

fly by and I need to get this figured out now.

I do know one thing and that is he, i know i am having a son, will

not get vaccinated until I have it all figured out.

However that being said, I am assuming that no one can try and force

me to vaccinate my son until he is of school age correct?

And last... Can anyone lead my to a list of pediatricians that do no

or limited vaccines?

FYI--

We homeschool in the state of CA, with an accredited homeschool here in the

state of CA, and I had to file an exemption. We had previously gone through

a school in Virginia, and it never came up. I was surprised to have to do it

this year, but I took a philosophical exemption, with a very

carefully-worded letter that I got off some anit-vax site, and it was accepted,

luckily.

God bless!

Welcome, and laws on vaccine mandates are for daycare/school entry (although

where is it that requires homeschoolers, too)?

You are right to hold off until you do your research. I would read Neil 's

book--what is the name of the new one, people? Sheri mentioned it recently. The

old one is Vaccines: Are they Really Safe and Effective?

Read that and Randall Neustaedter's The Vaccine Guide. And no parent should be

without Mendelsohn's How to Raise a Healthy Child in Spite of Your

Doctor.

That should keep you busy for now. Good luck!

Hi Toni,

Welcome to our forum!

The book Winnie is referring to is " Vaccine Safety Manual For

Concerned Families and Health Practitioners " . It's very thorough.

Also, I highly recommend this video:

http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2008/02/14/why-vaccines-aren-\

t-safe.aspx.

Very well done and easy to understand. It sites several references

you can research further yourself, if you choose to.

Another book I highly recommend is " How to Raise a Healthy Child... In

Spite of Your Doctor " by S. Mendelsohn, M.D. I'll quit there,

so you're not too overwhelmed with info.

Congratulations on your pregnancy, and good for you for questioning

and researching this issue before your little one is here. Every

child should be so lucky to have a mom that would look out for them

like that!

Didactic Mediums is having an event on Vaccines and its effects on

health. The guest speaker is Dr Sherri Tenpenny, a medical doctor

who once advocated and administered vaccines, but after years of

research now speaks out AGAINST vaccines and works with children who

have been injured by vaccines. This is a very important topic that

cannot be ignored and we all must get informed so that we make good

decisions for our children AND even ourselves. Dr Tenpenny is

nationally reknowned and very outspoken about vaccines. She has been

on CNN, where they set her up, and she wrote a letter to them stating

this, and she also speaks frequently on WBAI 99.5 FM NY. You can

check her out and learn a lot about vaccines at www.drtenpenny.com. ;

While you are there check out the CDC Mandatory Vaccine Schedule

(upper left hand corner) and see how drastically mandatory vaccines

has increased within the last 25 years. She is phenomenal, you must

come out to see her.

The event will be held on June 22, 2008 at 2:00PM - 6:00PM at the New

York City College of Technology, Klitgord Auditorium, 275 Jay Street,

Brooklyn, NY between Tillary and Willoughby streets (just off of the

Brooklyn Bridge).

This is especially important for New Yorkers as Governor is

about to sign a bill mandating vaccines for certain workers and

school children, and for the first time vaccines will be mandatory

for infants and toddlers, Vaccines have gone from 10 to 36 in the

past and now the bill is proposing an increase of 28 vaccines to

bring it to a grand total of 54 vaccines your children will receive

before the age of 5. For more info on the bill, go to

mykidsmychoice.com/Demo.html. The Armish community does not

vaccinate their children and they have 0 cases of autism. After

America " liberated " Kuwait, and started vaccinating their children,

the autism rate there went from 1 in 100,000 to 1 in 400 in 2 years.

Are the vaccines responsible, you make the call. Either way,

INFORMATION is key and our children are too precious to not have the

facts. Come out on June 22 and get the FACTS.

Thanks Winnie and for the book recommendations! I will order them

right now. Unfortunately(heart breaking) my son will have to attend

daycare. I am hoping that we can get by with me only working part time

but my first battle will be daycare.

Thanks again,

I am in NJ so we are practically neighbors :-) ... I know there are a few

members here from PA.  Hopefully someone will chime in with the info you are

looking for soon.  I know how you feel but you are in good company here. 

And you are to be commended for giving this such serious thought.  The only

thing I can suggest is that you read, read and read some more.  It is a lot of

inofrmation and yes, it does get overwhelming at first because it goes against

everything you have been brainwashed to believe.  Its like the matrix... its

really deep and this issue is about alot more than vaccines.  In order to

protect our babies and their future generations we must be diligent in reading

as that is the only way to really  deprogram our consciousness of all the

propaganda and garbage we've been fed. 

good luck

ari.

Hi there,

I know tons of you homeschool and everyone on here makes it seem

like it is such a simple thing to do. Now, I know nothing about

homeschooling or how it is done or even what it required to

homeschool anyone, but is it really as simple as you it is made out

to be? I can't even begin to know where and how to start to teach my

child anything that is taught in school when she becomes of school

age. At a toddler age now, we try and teach her the basics but

actually teaching different subjects for their grade levels boggles

me. Please feel free to enlighten me!

15 years ago I was in a teacher training program in Mississippi. There

were teachers that were grandfathered into the education system who had

only an 8th grade education; they were grandfathered in from the days of

separate schools for blacks and whites.

I was very resistant to homeschooling, but encouraged by my husband. We

started with preschool. As a year passed, I could see that I was capable

of teaching the next year. We're starting 6th grade this year and I'm

confident that I can figure it out through highshool.

One thing about public education is that at least half of the education

classes are centered around classroom management - how to deal with

classes for 20-30 children. If you read, balance your check book, double

a recipe, calculate tax on items, you are definitely good through 6th

grade, in some places, through highschool:) as having the knowledge to

teach your child.

I would figure 10 minutes of actual teaching time as a highschool

algebra teacher for a 40 minute class period. The rest of the time was

attendance, classroom shuffle, collecting papers, etc. That's 10 minutes

for 30 students. If you can give you child 10 minutes one-one in each of

the subjects that you desire your child to learn, you are likely

exceeding most highschool classroom these days.

Homeschool laws, like vaccination exemptions vary state by state. There

are resources out there for each state.

Kathy that does sound amazing, but I guess my question really is,

how do you know what to teach them, where do you come up with an

actual lesson plan? I can recall the bits and pieces of what I

learned in high school, but I can't even imagine or maybe even have

that confidence to teach my child school subjects and I can do all

those things you mentioned........

Thank You,

Hi Tori,

I am quite new to learning about vaccines as well. We vaccinated my

son for his 2 month vacccines (then I met Arianna who is on this

list and happens to live near me and she urged me to research the

issue). I agree, there's SO much info that it can boggle your mind.

But I am not so much interested in the back and forth arguments and

so on- my husband and I just decided to go right to the facts.

We looked at the list of ingredients that are in vaccines which is

on the CDC website :

http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/pubs/pinkbook/downloads/appendices/B/exci

pient-table-2.pdf

....and we though, OK, do we object to any of these ingredients being

injected into our son? Obviously, if you read the list I can't

imagine you'd want ANY of that stuff injected into your child.

So then we looked at each vaccine to see what exactly it is for, how

likely it would be that our son would contract that disease, and if

he did what could the consequences be?

We just stuck with the facts- we didn't feel any of the diseases

were statistically likely enough for him to contract...and the ones

that are more possible to contract (such as chicken pox) do not

worry us.

I am not really familiar yet with the legal aspect of vaccinating

because I am planning on homeschooling.

But I can possibly help you with cloth diapers I recently started

a blog- it is in its very early stages, but I have posted about my

experience with cloth diapers so feel free to take a look. And trust

me, it took awhile for me to figure out what cloth diapers I would

go with as well!

Hi Rina,

I am sure you can homeschool- I really think anyone is capable of

homeschooling their children much better than a teacher can teach

them in school. At least until you reach say, physics and calculus

or something Or maybe that's just me! Anyway, I believe you know

what you child needs and can provide for them educationally a whole

lot better than the generic education they'd receive at school.

If you have specific questions about education, feel free to ask. I

plan on homeschooling, but my son is just 6 months old as of now

I have my masters in elementary education and I've taught in public

school for awhile. But I don't plan on going back- hence the

homeschooling.

I don't want to say too much because it's OT, but you can order

homeschooling curriculum as a skeleton for yourself...and then just

supplement or tailor to your needs. If you want to know what you

should be teaching, you can always look online at the state mandated

curriculum... I am pretty sure each state/city has to post it on

their department of education website. Like, standards and goals- if

that's something you want to aim for. Also, there's tonsssss of info

online too.

Feel free to email me if you have any specific questions:

THANK YOU AMBER, YOU ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!!! Just as Ariana is!! You

truly answered my question and when it comes to that time for my

toddler to go to school, I think I would love to look a LOT more

into homeschooling.

Thank you Kathy again. I guess we ALL tend to go off on a tangent

stemming from vaccinations.......thanks for e-mailing me directly
