Question

March 6, 2001

Hi Jenn!

You are right - 40/40/20 is not in the BFL book. It means: 40% of

one's calories from protein, 40% from carbs, 20% from fat.

Hussman, at his excellent Web site " Why the Body-for-LIFE

program works, " which Bill recommends, states that the

BFL nutrition program seems to target about 40/40/20.

Hussman's Web site is at http://www.hussman.com/eas and is

well worth reading.

Energetically,

I really like those Sing-A-Long videos by Disney. They have this one where

they sing-a-long in Disney world (or maybe it was Disney land??)... anyway,

I think it's a blast! The kids I babysit for love it!

I saw a poster in our hospital here that said to grow healthy, 12 hugs a day

are needed. I don't know if that's true, but we live by it!!!!!

Hi Judi

I know, I know....long time no see! Computer crashed, got a PC virus and

just generally things are out of control! WHEW! Emma and Nicki are

becoming more and more........challenging! LOL

Anyhooooo - I believe the Wiggles video with a boy with Ds in it is called

" Wake Up Jeff " and they have just released new video with a boy with Spina

Bifida in it called " Wiggley Wiggley World " . Hope you have luck finding

these! Keep your eyes peeled for a new group from Aussie called " High 5 " .

Emma and Nicki LOVE them and it's full of action songs and dancing. Maybe

Amazon would have it.

:

Is he ill? Allergies kicking in? and...is he going through puberty?

Since it's a short period of time (2 days) that behavior has changed, my

thoughts go first to simple answers. But you also have to consider what he

is communicating---is he feeling like he needs more control? Not listened

to? Are there choices in his day?

You have to look at the 3 or more events prior to the aggresssion or

inappropriate behavior to begin to look for a pattern that preciptates the

behavior.

But at least out here, it's the worst allergy season in years.........

hang in there.

Hi ,

Using an essential oil " neat " means to put it directly on the skin without

diluting it in a carrier (oil, water etc.) first. There are very few essential

oils that can be used safely that way.

If you are interested in using essential oils, there are many knowledgeable

people here from whom you can learn a lot. There are also a lot of wonderful

books available on the subject -- I know, I have built up quite a collection :>)

Question

Hi:

I have a question (sorry for my stupidity). You keep talking about using EOs

" neat " . What is " neat " mean?

Thanks,

July 8, 2001

Hi ,

I haven't read all the posts yet, so you may already have received an

answer to your question. " Neat " simply means applying essential oil to

your skin without diluting it first with a " carrier " as is the usual

practice. I will add that the only e.o.'s that are regularly listed as

safe for neat applications are lavender and tea tree.

Good luck!

It sounds like it could be all the above. i know next year Hannah will have

a different class teacher, and i'm not looking forward to that as she has

had the same one for two years, but i guess she has to change sometime. It

seems like your child is getting older and her friends are getting older

too, and this brings problems, when you have a special needs child. your

daughter knows she is different, and the other kids can see she is

different. i'm not making much sense am i!!!!!, cheryl

question

Hi All

Skylar seems to be having some difficulty this year in grade 4. She had

a great year last year and I was so hoping for another one. She has the

same E.A. as she had last year(Skylar loves her) but only every other

day. The opposite days she has a

a new E.A that she had never met before this year. She also has a new

teacher, new room and a new play yard. Anyways, she has been acting up

in class being very loud, shouting out in class and being very

emotional, even if it is her familiar E.A. This is very unlike Sky.

Now I have heard that there are some children making fun of her and I am

starting to notice some changes in her body. I am wondering if it is

the teasing, hormonal changes, the different E.A. or all the above. I

am at a loss. This is so unlike her. The last time she had anything

like this was when she was in Grade 2 and she had 2 teachers that took

turns working during the week. I was just wondering what everyones

opinion is??? I am looking for answers so I would very much like to

hear your ideas. Thanks

Tracey.
