So would  natural remedies for ADHD would be effective your child?
We have developed a system for treating ADHD naturally in HET or Holistic Educational Therapy and we have found one of the first remedies we would use to turn behaviours around really quickly is the Bach Flower remedies by Dr

Bach, founded eighty years ago. They are now available  worldwide and probably the most renowned is  Rescue Remedy, which is actually a combination of 5 remedies to be taken in times of extreme stress.
However out of a complete system of thirty eight remedies, there are other combinations which are extremely  helpful in dealing with behaviour problems associated with ADHD.
The first two stepping stones in HET- Holistic Educational Therapy, involve consultations to find out which behaviours we want to change and then goal setting, so we can measure success along the way. The next approach is to look at turning around emotionally challenging behaviours – This is done by quite simply changing the emotions.

In ADHD there are usually certain types of behaviour in common, like impulsiveness, impatience, lack of concentration etc. There may however be other related emotions that are derived from the condition of ADHD, like lack of self esteem and confidence for example, if that young person has not been able to succeed within the school system and these secondary emotions need to be addressed as they will come back into the ADHD cycle and feed the original problem.
The skill of the practitioner is dependent on how accurately they can assess the behaviours behind the emotions, before translating this into the remedies, A blend will hold anything up to 7 of the remedies and is usually taken 4 times a day over 3 weeks and then the progress is reviewed before another blend is prepared.
This system is safe simple and effective with absolutely no side effects. In HET we have seen a huge turnaround in behaviour over a relatively short period of time and the joy of this system is that it is so easy to learn and administer and becomes a tool box for life in using natural remedies for ADHD and for any of life’s challenging situations.
