Water filters remove harmful contaminants like lead, chlorine, pesticides, bacteria and other toxins from tap water, also when people take medications these come out through their urine into our water system, filtering your wanted can protect you from taking in other people’s medications.

I chose a whole house system as what goes onto our skin goes into our blood stream so we wanted clean water to wash in as-well as drink.

Filter 1 - removes chlorine, hormones, fluoride, lead, it is highly advanced and effective at killing and containing bacteria in water such as E-coli, Pseudomonas and other microorganisms, this filter adds antioxidants and minerals back into the water after filtering and additionally makes water more alkaline by raising the pH value.

Filter 2 - This filter also reduces chlorine and bad taste and odour issues from tap water, the carbon block also reduces certain Volatile Organic Chemicals, the coconut base of the carbon also makes a slightly sweeter taste.

Filter 3 - This filter contains Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) and Kinetic Degradation Fluxion (KDF). When these 2 are combined, they are known to kill algae and fungi, control bacteria growth and remove chlorine, pesticides, organic matter, rust, unpleasant taste and odour, hydrogen sulphide, iron, lead, nickel, chromium, cadmium, calcium, mercury and other organic compounds.

To all the mums who never stop fighting for their children, who push through exhaustion, doubt, and endless appointments - today is for you.

To the mums who have been dismissed, told it is just anxiety, just a phase, just bad behaviour. The ones who knew better and kept searching. The ones who read late into the night, who ask the hard questions, who will not accept “there is nothing you can do.”

To the mums of children with Autism ADHD, PANS, PANDAS, and complex health issues, who have carried their children through the darkest moments, who have seen the fear in their eyes and promised they will not stop until they find answers.

You are the reason your child has a chance. You are their strength when they cannot fight for themselves. You are not just a mother. You are an advocate, a researcher, a healer, a warrior.

You are everything.

Happy International Women’s Day to the women who never give up. The world may not always see your fight, but your child does. And that is everything.

Sabotage Play 🤎

In the early stages of helping Mykee to communicate we used a strategy called Sabotage Play this is where you interrupt your child’s play or the things they like doing so they initiate for you to carry on, your are giving them the opportunity to communicate with you, they have to let you know they want you to carry on, you can do this in every day situation’s like pushing them on a swing or jumping on a trampoline, you just stop the activity and wait, they could communicate by giving you eye contact, making a sound or taking your hand to let you know they want you to carry on, once they do that then you carry on with the activity so they know they have to communicate with you in some way to get what they want.

Putting things they like in see through box’s, pausing and waiting to give them the opportunity to communicate are some little tips that may help your child to interact with you, using single words like again, more, open, go, and being consistent is so important, also homing into what they and what motivates them is key, it may be stones, mud, food etc but they will give you more if they are motivated by what they like.

Swipe to see some videos, of how we used to do this.
