Today's parents are more attuned than ever to the emotional health and well-being of their children. In this practical guide, master herbalist and classical homeopath Sara Chana Silverstein explores the herbs, essential oils, homeopathic remedies, and other natural therapies that can be used—safely and inexpensively at home—to support the emotional needs of children.
Silverstein provides an in-depth look at dozens of medicinal plants that help alleviate tension, insomnia, anxiety, anger, ADHD, and depression. She offers practical guidance on selecting and preparing the most kid-friendly herbal remedies, including honeys, ice pops, teas, tinctures, and oils. She also shows how gentle homeopathic remedies provide an effective way to address emotional struggles as well as certain neurological conditions, including autism.
The author explores the role of aromatherapy, discusses the connection between blood types and behavior, and shares tried-and-true methods for boosting oxytocin, the love and bonding hormone. The book concludes with interviews with 11 experts in herbal medicine, homeopathy, and holistic care who offer advice and practical insights into treating children safely and holistically, empowering parents and caregivers to help the children they love move through life's stages with confidence, balance, and grace.
