A natural remedy for ADHD is the first thought for parents who are concerned about the detrimental side effects of conventional ADHD medicine
. A quick search on the internet will show up thousands of allegedly natural approaches which are guaranteed to be the cure all.
ADHD is a complicated medical condition and so one remedy or vitamin pill is unlikely to alleviate the symptoms on its own. A totally natural holistic approach to the problem is the best solution.
One natural remedy which is very effective is the use of Bach Flower essences. This helps with the emotions of the child. There are 38 remedies plus the famous composite remedy Rescue Remedy, which between them span the whole emotional spectrum. They work by tipping the balance of negative emotions into positive ones and I have found them invaluable in putting in a frontline strategy to work with children with extremely challenging behaviours where their emotions have run out of control.
Various combinations of these remedies are ideal for addressing certain facets of this complex condition of ADHD. For example rescue remedy for stress, impatiens for constant fidgeting and being on the go, vervain for hyper enthusiasm, clematis for paying attention etc.
Normally you would look at a couple of drops of each remedy in a bottle of mineral water drunk throughout the day and could expect to see results in a few hours, certainly the first few days. A traditional remedy is made up in a 30 ml bottle and you would take a remedy programme over the space of 3 weeks. A much simpler way of taking these remedies are as combined essence sound e-frequencies, which are instantly downloadable onto your computer or phone. A leading edge process developed by Jacques Benveniste in the mid 90s, which represents the Bach remedies by a certain sound on the basis that every physical thing vibrates at a unique frequency.
They sound a bit odd. These remedies can be played in front of a glass or bottle of mineral water for about 10 seconds. We know from the leading edge work of Masuru Emoto, that water has the capacity to hold these sound frequencies as a memory. They are truly a 21st century solution which provide a way into one of the initial hurdles of combating the effects of ADHD behaviour with natural remedies.
