Being a Mom can be challenging.

Having been in the health profession for years, we want to pass along Health and Wellness Tips,

that changed our families and kids' health.

A balance between nutrition, standard of care, and natural health options.

So what are Glycans?

Your kids learn the alphabet and their cells have to learn an alphabet also to be healthy!

600+ trillion cells are "you." Health starts with cellular health.

Healthy cells = Healthy tissues = Healthy organs = Healthy systems

Glycans are important to Your Integrative Health Care.

Why is this alphabet important?

Without the basic shapes or carbohydrates, communication is lacking.
Every cell in our body communicates by utilizing a Braille-like alphabet of 8 glyconutrients.
If a person is missing any of these necessary, biologically-active saccharides the cells cannot communicate properly

Immune System - keeping your kids healthier naturally can be a good goal for any family.

We have found these products to be most helpful.

We mix glycans into kids' food. We even crush the Immunostart and add it to his bottle formula. Our 3-year-old

gets Mighty Bears with glycans. What a difference in their alertness and health! They aren't sick like a lot of other kids.

For Grandparents and Parents of Adult Kids and learning your new role: Jim Burns

1. "You're fired! Your role as a parent has to change. You're still the parent but you need to reinvent your relationship. Give your kids a passport to adulthood. Deal with grief - change is a sense of loss.

2) Your unsolicited advice is usually taken as criticism. Experience is better than advice. They don't hear the lesson we are trying to say, but they hear you don't trust them to be a grown-up. Learn to bite your tongue. Ask permission to give advice. Be a mentor.

3) Become a student of their culture. Our kids are Millenials and Gen Z. They think and act differently. Understand their distinctions. We use technology, these generations are shaped by technology.

4) They will never know how far the town is if you carry them.

5) You can't want it more than they want it. Tough love does not mean getting angry or frustrated. Constant criticism even if it's true breaks a relationship apart. Be a safe person in their life. And cheerleader. It's not perfect but it's working."

How to handle transitions: Just don't get over it but grow and look for what is useful. Look for what is available to you. Adapt to it, understand it, figure it out, live. Grow your purpose. Love is the great healer. Some people have not experienced love in their homes. So it can be hard for them to extend love.

Stop Yelling at Your Kids - Craig Nielson M.A. CPC, CCPC

"When you yell at your children the content of what you want them to understand is lost. The only things they experience are feeling of

shame, fear, anger, sadness, and overall discomfort. They internalize, "My parent is upset, and I'm responsible. They either want to run or fight back. This erodes their sense of self-worth and disempowers them.

When your child displays a behavior you disapprove of, lower your voice when confronting them. Lowering your voice does not threaten them and prompts them to listen more intently to what you have to say. Speak to their strengths, and be curious. If they're loud when they play, let them know it's good they like to have fun. Then explain why the noise is disturbing you in some way.

Maybe they can take their fun to another room. Empower kids with a can-do attitude."

____________________

While training toddlers there can be a tendency to say "No," a lot. While there are times when it is important to say No, try to use it sparingly. When you explain why you can not let them do something, the child takes in the information and will put it together over time. Like, "Sweetie, be careful we have to watch for cars. We want to be

safe." or "I can't let you do that because _______." Or, "It might be easier to do if________. Sometimes when we are tired it is too easy to just say No. Don't underestimate how smart kids are. And kids learn at different speeds. Also, redirect to constructive activities.

Also, avoid telling a toddler or child they are "Bad." Bad is a variable and critical word. We want kids to be learners in a constructive way. Being told they are Bad can erode self-esteem, resourcefulness, and a can-do attitude. Or place kids in a state of guilt and shame.

“Labelling a child as ‘bad’ only reinforces negative behavior. We must remember that children are constantly learning and evolving. It’s our role to guide and support them." As parents and caregivers, we have a responsibility to support and guide our children through their journey of self-discovery. Encourage their personal growth."

Pro Tip: "As parents, we need to explain the ‘why’ of behavior at our children’s understanding level, instead of saying our child should do this or that because they will be ‘bad’ kids if they don’t."— — Dr. Laura Markham, author of “Peaceful Parent, Happy Kids”

Firm discipline may be necessary.

Many parents give their toddlers and kids Baby Tylenol. Another great option is homeopathy cell salts. Check out online: "Little Mountain Homeopathy," and "Fascinating Benefits of Tissue Salts/Gentle Mineral Balancing with Cell Salts

A good tip I learned from my daughter-in-law is to use a small burping cloth to wipe a baby's nose. This cuts down on chafing.
