Homeopathy is such a gentle yet deep acting modality to support children with ADHD and autism. Hearing feedback like this 8 weeks into homeopathic treatment is always encouraging, and it's only the beginning!
Thanks to this mom for letting me share her sons experience, which gives other families hope who have n't experienced progress like this even after trying many different modalities and interventions.
💫 He's willing to take the remedies, which is such a big win because we expected him to refuse.
💫 Speech & communication: he is using more words. He's making a lot more effort to communicate, more persistence in communication. It has been really nice to see a desire to communicate.
💫 Emotional dysregulation: Less incidences of crying loudly. Generally, no behaviour issues. He's managing emotions better. There's a reduction in outbursts. Overall he is more calm and less stimming.
💫 Sensory: Before he would only wear long sleeves even on hot days. He's now wearing T-shirts. Reduction in auditory sensitivity. He doesn't wear ear defenders as much when he goes out. Before noise was intolerable. He would have to cover his ears and cry. e.g. airport. He doesn't seem as distressed with loud sounds.
💫Bowel movements happening 9 out of 10 days. Before he used to miss 5 + days out of 10.
💫 No acute illnesses since starting homeopathic remedies.
For most parents initial gains like this, although huge, feel small because there's still a huge mountain to climb. Achieving ones treatment goals still feels very far away. Oftentimes, parents might think there's been no change at all until we go over the main issues we discussed at their first appointment, and then they realise how many areas have improved. This is one of the reasons follow-ups are such an important part of the homeopathic process. I always explain to parents that there's several layers to address. The longer one commits to the process the greater the collective gains will be.

Tapping is such an effective and simple tool to empower kids and ourselves. You can learn it from watching youtube videos and integrate it easily into your life.

As you know we have some great remedies to help ease anxiety on return to school 😳 ➡️ 😊

You can consider -

💎 Aconite

💎 Argentum nit

💎 Gelsemium

💎 Lycopodium

💎 AAA (Ambra gris, Anacardium, Arg nit)

If you have any questions about these remedies, how to use, or how to know which one is best for your child please post your questions in comments. I'll repost some old infographics over the next couple of weeks about these remedies in relation to school anxiety.

Is your child already stressed about going back to school?

You’re not imagining it, and they’re not being dramatic. For many autistic and ADHD kids, the anxiety starts weeks before the first bell even rings.
This isn’t fear. It’s anxiety.

Fear is a reaction to something happening right now. Anxiety is about everything that might happen, and it often comes from not knowing what to expect.

A lot of autistic/ADHD children rely on predictability to feel safe. School is full of unknowns: new teachers, new routines, new sounds, new rules. That uncertainty builds up in their minds and bodies until they’re overwhelmed before they even get there.

Giving your child a few key details ahead of time can make a big difference. Knowing who their teacher is, where their classroom will be, or how long the school day is can help them feel more in control.
But, and this is important, sometimes too much detail makes things worse. It can give them more to obsess over or worry about, especially if things change. So it’s about finding the right balance. They need enough to help them feel prepared, not so much that it fuels their anxiety.

Here’s what you can try:
• Stick to what’s definite, like times and names.
• Be honest if things might change.
• Use simple routines to build confidence.
• Reassure them that it’s okay to feel unsure, they need to feel heard.

If this sounds like your child and you want more practical support, Autism and Anxiety is a brilliant place to start.

For most parents initial gains like this, although huge, feel small because of the huge mountain that lies ahead. The summit (treatment goals) still feels very far away. Oftentimes, parents might think there's been no change at all until we go over the main issues we discussed at their first appointment, and then they realise how many areas have improved.

Belladonna is one of our commonly used remedies from the Solanaceae (nightshades) family. This family of remedies are so essential in my practice for helping children with emotional dysregulation (e.g. rage), ADHD, anxiety, Oppositional Defiance Disorder and PANDAS.

20 years ago when I started studying homeopathy I worked with individuals with severe learning difficulties and autism. Reading about these remedies then was a total revelation. I had no idea natural remedies existed that matched, and could help such psychological, neurological and cognitive states. Now many years later I'm working with clients that frequently require these remedies, and I am so grateful to have them in my tool kit.

Belladonna has great potential to relieve bouts of rage and restlessness, and enhance emotional regulation.
I find it really helpful in ADHD, ASD and PANDAS cases where there's lots of rage alongside a tendency to intense fevers, bouts of tonsillitis and/ or chronic ear infections. It works well to calm neuro-inflammation.

If you are struggling with a child who suffers with symptoms like this know that homeopathy can help. Stimulant meds, anti-depressants, and anti-psychotics are not the only option.

Perseid meteor shower peaking over the next few days☄️

Reminder: The Perseid Meteor Shower peaks August 12–13, 2025, and it's traditionally one of the best shows in the night sky.

(N.B. - Although there is an expected frequency of 50-75 meteors per hour, the gibbous moon’s brightness will likely reduce the number of visible meteors.)

This awe-inspiring event is perfect for a late summer night of stargazing with kids. Just grab a blanket, head outside after 11 and before dawn (perfect reason to get the kids up late/early), lie back and look up!

I hope you can see many of these positive qualities in your child or yourself as well as the negative 🌈 I know I see many of these qualities in my clients with ADHD all the time. We often have to discuss the negatives in more detail so we can find an appropriate remedy to help bring these traits into balance so they have a less disruptive effect on the quality of their life. But we definitely explore the positives too so we can get to know the individual and get a sense of their unique personality. This helps us find a helpful constitutional remedy that helps a person with ADHD to overcome challenges and fulfil their potential in this life.

I've received a lot of emails this week asking if I have appointments available this week. Like many of you, I take holidays with my kids this time of year, so it's best to look at my calendar ahead of time if a summer appointment is on your 'to do' list.

I have a few appointments left towards the end of July and the middle of August. If you need a follow-up, please look at my online calendar and book soon to avoid disappointment.

It's best to always schedule follow-up appointments 4 weeks in advance to ensure you get the appointment you need.

Hope you're all enjoying some quality family time ☀💛☀

This is one of the best bits of feedback I've received from a parent for a while. Her 15 year old daughter with ADHD and ASD has experienced a huge change in school avoidance, and has become very passionate about learning! Her mom said 'she has figured out how to study. She got all A's and B's in her recent tests'. She described the changes over the first year of treatment as 'Mindboggling'.

This makes alot of sense.
