The eyes are the windows to the soul. How we look at people and how we look at the world affects us mentally, physically and even spiritually. Children, as well as adults may have fear of closing their eyes or avoiding eye contact with others.
When children avoid eye contact it may also be a sign of some sort of autism or emotional problem. The medical field has few answers to this as most medications sedate the children, along with other side effects. Natural solutions help these children or people to relax and not be so shy.
Nutritional factors may include a magnesium deficiency. Use a liquid or powder magnesium. Increase dosage until the person has too loose a stool, and then back off.
Natural Healing Protocol — First, choose an herb. Then add a cell salt or cell salt solution. Finally, choose the homeopathic remedy that fits your situation best. Combining supplements will do more to support your body’s ability to function properly than using just one. Your ability to heal will depend on the severity and length of time symptoms have been present.
Herbs are plants valued for their specific strengthening/ tonifying properties.
Melissa glycerin tincture – to calm the nervous system
Chamomile – nerve calming, improves digestive system
St. John’s wort – calming, antiviral
