210: ADHD Tips + Essential Oils for the Whole Body

Millions of children in the US have been diagnosed with ADHD, and quite often, this diagnosis is accompanied by another disorder such as anxiety, depression, or other behavioral or conduct disorders. Since essential oils affect the limbic system of the brain, they are uniquely well suited to support individuals with these challenges.

Heather Dawn Godfrey is the Author of the award winning and bestselling new release, Essential Oils for the Whole Body, and author of Essential Oils for Mindfulness and Meditation. Her dissertation, which was on the topic of the role of essential oils in the treatment and management of ADHD, was published in the International Journal of Clinical Aromatherapy (IJCA). She runs a private aromatherapy practice and teaches aromatherapy.

Follow the advice of your healthcare provider when it comes to treating ADHD, but also take advantage of the tools offered by nature that can have real and lasting impact in supporting the emotions of individuals with ADHD.

183: Be a Chemical Awareness Advocate for your Kids

Did you know that hour of burning a candle is equivalent to the damage done by smoking a cigarette? Today we touch on the subjects of chemical awareness, as well as healthy and effective ways to use essential oils with children. Jackie Kartak is a mother of two and a passionate wellness advocate. She is a certified natural health professional, a doctor of naturopathy, and she’s the author of the children’s book, That Kids Book About Essential Oils.

What is clean living worth to you? So many people make the choice to go cheap with their personal care products, with the mindset of “if it was that bad for me, it wouldn’t be for sale”. Jackie Kartak is here to remind us that the most common ingredients in our products are proven to be hazardous to humans (with the vast majority banned in other countries). It’s time to wake up to the patterns of illness in our culture, to the ingredients we and our children ingest and absorb, and to make intelligent choices about our health.
