work in coordination while reading. Make sure each eye’s vision is 20/20, and that tracking is perfect. If not, vision therapy is a permanent, valuable treatment.
4. Positive Reinforcement There’s an old story about a child
whose behavior was so bad no amount of yelling and punishments would set him straight. The father decided to stop yell- ing and punishing his son, but every time he heard something bad his child did, he shot an arrow into the side of the garage. Months went by until one day there was no more room for arrows. The child noticed is father crying and decided to change his ways. The next day his father heard a good thing that his son did, so he pulled an ar- row out of the garage. Every day after that each time he heard something good his son did he would remove an arrow, until a year later he fi nally removed the fi nal arrow. The father walked outside one day and saw his son crying. He said, “You have done so well and turned your life around complete- ly, why are you crying?” And his son said, “I’m crying because of all those holes.”
While it’s easy to yell and be angry
when our children don’t act the way we want, it is extremely detrimental. Most chil- dren do well with positive reinforcements. Work with your child to create reward systems. Whether that be money, toys, or stickers, reward the right behavior instead of punishing the wrong behavior.
5. Brain Chemistry Balancing Most importantly, the best all-natural
way to improve focus and behavior is balancing brain chemistry. Our brain runs on electricity and that electrical charge is affected by chemicals such as serotonin, dopamine, and adrenaline. These chemi- cals are what most psychiatric medications work on. Whether it’s an anti-depressant that improves your serotonin, or an ADHD stimulant that improves your dopamine, changing these chemicals in your brain changes your mood, behavior, and focus.
We can do the same thing naturally.
Remember, we are what we eat, includ- ing the chemicals in our brain. These are mostly made of protein, which is why it’s so important to eat protein at every meal. However, did you know these chemicals can be tested and analyzed? Most con- ventional doctors don’t test these, but we test serotonin and dopamine levels in all of our patients. Even more helpful, it’s a simple urine test through a standard lab (like Quest) and goes through your insur- ance plan.
Imagine knowing your child’s mood is from a serotonin defi ciency that you found on a simple urine test or discovering your child’s focus issues are from a dopamine defi ciency that is easily discovered in days. In my opinion, this is the fastest way to help your child. Test your child’s dopamine, serotonin, and adrenaline levels, and then select the correct natural supplement. Ap- propriate protein supplements will increase your serotonin and/or dopamine within minutes.
Maybe your child is part of the 64% of American kids with a behavioral, emo- tional, or developmental concern. Maybe you’re looking for another solution rather than more psych meds with side effects. Our offi ce has the solution, we have the answers. It’s all-natural, and your children will feel happier, and do better in school, and that is going to help the entire family.
