Making Use of Essential Oils

The development of a child in the first year of life is extremely intense; in just 52 weeks’ an infant goes through major physical, cognitive and social and emotional developments.

The success of this stage is measured by the feeling of safety and security of our world. This will set the child up for success for the rest of their life. The other side is failure that would lead mistrust and the feeling of insecurity of the world around them. This will set them up to have issues especially in relationship. McLeod mentions, “For example, if the care has been harsh or inconsistent, unpredictable and unreliable then the infant will develop a sense of mistrust and will not have confidence in the world around them or in their abilities to influence events” (McLeod 19).

As we head into the fall, that also means that we're headed for cold and flu season. Being sick is terrible and disruptive to both your personal and work life and catching an illness could mean it ransacking your entire family.

The decision to test a child for a late-onset disease restricts the child’s right to an open future (Davis). These diseases will affect that child as an adult and, as an adult, the child should have the right to choose for themselves whether they want to be tested or not. Not only does testing children for late-onset diseases restrict the child’s future, but it also leaves a significant impact on the child to parent relationship which is vital for development throughout the early stages of life (Davis). Oftentimes, the parents find themselves treating a “diseased” or “affected” child with more care and precaution in comparison to their other children (Kopelman), as if the “diseased” child is fragile.

There are few things in this world that are pristine and new, clean-slated and fresh. A newborn child is just one of these things; unaware of feelings, human interactions, the joys or fears of life, and the world as a whole. However, what contact this child has with the world will shape and develop the mind, personality, emotions, and stability of the sense of self from the very beginning. It is because of these interactions that people are able to develop a healthy persona and it can determine how they intergrade with the world around them and all of whom they come across. Unfortunately not all children are lucky enough to be born into a healthy environment that will nurture the child to its full potential. Some children have bad

I started my essential oil journey around August last year. I had no idea about it at first. All I did day in day out was to research online the pros and cons of essential oils to everyday life. My interest grew deeper and I experimented almost every night, mixing my own potions to use for myself or to give to family members. As I am a big fan of subscription boxes, I thought maybe there is an essential oil company that sends out a box every month. Well, Google did not disappoint. It sent me to the Simply Earth website. I thought I've heard about the company before. Little did I know, I bought an organizer box from Amazon to store my new essential oils. Luckily, I kept the card that came with it with a coupon to redeem from their website. Long

Infants do not really do much, and coming into an environment with kids that have been diagnosed with a lot of medical conditions is overwhelming. For instance, we have kids with bipolar disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, anxiety, depression, autism, and Asperger's Syndrome. Most of the kids with bipolar disorder, adhd, and depression are most shown in the children with divorced parents in our program. These kids have counselors and therapists that come in to examine their behavior, and I talk to many of them every week to let them know how the children are performing. Many counselors have told me that having divorced parents can lead to the children with various mental illnesses. As a professional working with children, all I can do is support them in their time in need when they are at their lowest

Essential Oils have been used for centuries for holistic healing to promote well being, spirituality and health. The three common ways to use oils are, ingesting, applying to skin and diffusing. When ingesting or applying oils to the skin you should dilute the oils first with a carrier oil. Some of these carrier oils are coconut oil, almond oil, argan oil, and jojoba oil. After you have diluted the oil you can then ingest and apply to the skin. There are many different benefits to using essential oils such as skin care, hair care, sickness, sleep issues, and stress issues. There are over ninety different oils and they each have different issues that they treat. When using oils you have to understand that it takes time to find the right

Did you know that a healthy bowel is your first line of defense against illness! Constipation is the leading cause of many illnesses and is linked to numerous health risks, including cancer, vitamin and mineral deficiency, poor immune response, toxicity poisoning and a variety of chronic pain syndromes.

For generations, parents glanced at their children and smiled with pride at their little angels painting of an unrecognizable family scene or at a sticker earned on a spelling paper. Looking back, these make up the happy memories of a father or mother. Parents tend to overlook the tantrums of the terrible twos, the kicking during sibling rivalry matches, the endless hassles of bedtime rituals, which lead to endless nights of waiting for the teenager to come home, not to mention the financial strain of money spent on a child. Yet, for some parents, these headaches do not just happen occasionally. After endless frustrations, these parents turn to medical professionals for help in finding an answer to why their child is not an

These outcomes may not be important to everyone when considering the health of their infant, but lessening the risk of certain cancers and illnesses are potentially important to everyone.

Approaches to the management of a child’s well-being have been influenced by our ever-changing society. In the past, the focus was on the examination for communicable or contagious diseases, but today a clinical care provider is mandated to appreciate the influence of social, economic, and demographic factors on a child’s development and a possible effect on his/her health (Burns et al, 2013). Although we have many assets that can help in assessing the biological function and well-being of pediatric patients, head to toe assessment with medical evaluation remain the most significant part of any health assessment (AAP, 2016). The initial focus of any healthcare providers assessment is the objective and subjective data of the patient. When the

It is right that children need attention, time, and special treatment; however, personality of the newborn is not just influenced by their first years. Meeting new people and life outside home is also effective. Every stage of life is treatment.

The time has come, nine long months of waiting, and you’re finally getting to meet your beautiful child in the hospital room. Your precious baby, not even 10 minutes old, and you’re so in love. Already, you want to do anything in your power to protect your child, and make sure nothing ever harms them. What’s the first thing you should do? Wash your hands? Make everyone that’s about to touch your child wash, and disinfect their hands? Never let your child out of your sight? There is so much going on in the world, that the smallest things could harm your child. Tiny, invisible, “can’t be seen with the naked eye” type of things. The first thing you should do is vaccinate your child. Unvaccinated children have a 66% higher risk of contracting
