LDS Church's Guide to Parenting

2011-01-03T20:55:00.000-08:00

Source: Excepts from "The Parent's Guide" published and written by The LDS Church

"The mother and child are constant companions. Mother is a coach and tutor,
involved in the numberless trials, errors, and successes of this developmental
period. "

"Loving and consistent parenting helps children accept themselves and their
gender identity during these three years. Unkind parenting can plant seeds of
self-doubt and even confusion about the gender role. These seeds can germinate
into personal problems in the following years unless parents change and show
increased affection and acceptance."

"To guide their feet properly, we must show natural affection to children from
the very beginning. Infants need to be physically and emotionally cared for.
They need continual intimate contact with their parents. It is in this intimate
closeness that future relationships begin to develop."

"To develop close, loving relationships with infants, keep them clean and fed,
and meet all of their needs kindly and consistently. From this steady,
predictable care, infants develop a sense of emotional security and learn that
they can trust people. Constantly give approval to them. Watch, applaud, hug,
and kiss them..."

"Be kind and patient as infants learn to do things for themselves. Harsh
correction could diminish their self-esteem and make them anxious about
trusting others."

"Through all stages of growth, children need parental encouragement. Punishment
for failure will make them feel inferior and unwilling to develop close
relations. Pressure to progress faster than they are ready can create
emotional frustration..."

"How profoundly the Prophet Joseph Smith spoke when he expressed yearnings of
the human heart: "when persons manifest the least kindness and love to me, O
what power it has over my mind, while the opposite course has a tendency to
harrow up all the harsh feelings and depress the human mind" "

" Be loving when you correct your children, Do not withhold affection from them
as a way to chastise them, for they may not learn to give affection to others.
Physical or emotional abuse may teach a child that cruelty is the normal way to
treat other people. Do not spank a child in this age-group (birth to 3 years) with
any force and never with an instrument. Also, avoid making a child fearful by locking him in
a dark room or threatning to leave him alone."

"...consider the following counsel that President Joseph F. Smith gave to
fathers to use with their sons. It can be applied just as well to mothers and
daughters:

"Fathers, if you wish your children to be taught in the principles of the
gospel, if you wish them to love the truth and understand it, if you wish them
to be obedient to and united with you, love them! and prove to them that you do
love them by your every word or act to them. For your own sake, for the love
that should exist between you and your boys-however wayward they might
be...when you speak or talk to them, do it not in anger, do it not harshly, in
a condemning spirit. Speak to them kindly;...Soften their hearts, get them to
feel tenderly toward you. Use no lash and no violence, but...approach them with
reason, with persuasion and love unfeigned...Get them to feel as you feel, have
interest in the things you take interest, to love the gospel as you love it, to
love one another as you love them; to love their parents as the parents love
the children. You can't do it in another way"

Forks Over Knives

2010-11-09T20:57:00.002-08:00

Farmageddon

2010-11-09T14:43:00.000-08:00

The Prophet said to plant a garden....

and here's one reason why. Our government is raping our food supply. This is an important film that raises awareness to the illegal activity being perpetrated on innocent farmers.

Making Your Own Toothpaste

2010-10-27T18:54:00.001-07:00

This is a great alternative to toxic toothpaste!

I might add some xylitol as well.

THIS Asthma Solution Costs No Money…

2010-07-15T22:09:00.001-07:00

http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2010/07/13/insufficient-vitamin-d-tied-to-severe-asthma-attacks.aspx

Asthmatic children with low blood vitamin D levels may have a greater risk of suffering severe asthma attacks.

A study followed more than 1,000 children with asthma for four years, and found those with vitamin-D insufficiency at the outset were more likely to have an asthma attack that required a trip to the hospital.

Reuters reports:

“When the researchers considered other factors -- including the severity of the children's asthma at the study's start, their weight and their family income -- vitamin D insufficiency itself was linked to a 50 percent increase in the risk of severe asthma attacks.”

Speaker Spotlight: Phil McLemore

2010-05-18T23:22:00.000-07:00

Meditation nearly saved my life a few years ago. I had been toying aournd with it for quite a while, remembering that the General Authorities has encouraged us to practice it, but there is no LDS manual on meditation, so I just waded my way through it until I was hit with a crisis in my life and needed it in order to keep my head above water. There were days I'd meditate for 45 minutes or more just in order to face my day.

Meditation was a big topic for me to include with the conference, and the conference board agreed. But where, o where, does one find an LDS meditation guru? A person like that isn't exactly in every ward, or even stake. Well, we were lucky to stumble upon Phil McLemore.

Philip McLemore received his Master’s Degree from the University of Florida and is the former LDS Institute of Religion Director at Auburn University and the University of Georgia.

He retired from the U.S. Air Force in 2004, after 20 years of service as a military chaplain. As a chaplain, Philip specialized in marriage & grief counseling, values education, and stress management. After an injury to his back, neck, and shoulder, Philip began a meditation practice to manage chronic pain and stress. He soon discovered that meditation was designed for the primary purpose of spiritual awakening and embarked on a decade of in-depth study and practice with world-renowned meditation masters. Philip is an expert in ancient and modern forms of meditation and contemplative prayer and currently works as a hospice chaplain and meditation instructor.

Phil is teaching 3 classes:

Awakening into the Spirit: The Art and Practice of Meditation / Part One: The Philosophical and Spiritual Foundation.
Awakening into the Spirit: The Art and Practice of Meditation / Part Two: Principles and Techniques for a Lifelong Meditation Practice
Becoming The Beloved of The Lord: Maturing through the Stages of Spiritual Growth

Speaker Spotlight: David Christopher

2010-05-12T21:08:00.000-07:00

David Christopher began apprenticing with his father, Dr. John R. Christopher, in 1972 and became manager of the Dr. Christopher Herb Company in 1974. One of the first things he did was to professionally publish Dr. Christopher books which lead to incorporating Christopher Publications in 1977.

Dr. Christopher asked David to help with the School of Natural Healing, and in 1979 he took over the reigns of the school. During the 80’s David was instrumental in establishing the school in England. This has resulted in the majority of present day English herbalists being trained in the Dr. Christopher theories.

In 1982 David Christopher began to lecture on his own for different health organizations. His lecturing prompted him to resign as president of the herb company and to fully pursue teaching in 1993. He left the herb company in the care of his siblings. In the following year the School of Natural Healing became the 30th fastest growing company in Utah and was honored personally by Utah Governor, Michael Leavitt. David also helped to establish the Irish School of Natural Healing and still teaches there each year.

We are so pleased to have David involved with the conference and know that you will benefit greatly from his classes:

Cancer Prevention and Holistic Treatment

Just What is the Word of Wisdom

Speaker Spotlight: Nicole Hamory

2010-05-08T12:26:00.001-07:00

I first met Nicole as my daughter's yoga instructor. For a while I had been trying to get my 13 year old to do yoga with me, but to no avail...it (or I) just wasn't "cool" enough for her or something. And then she decided to do a class. Every week she'd come home from class with a new found respect of her body, how it operates and insight into deeper spiritual topics. Nicole was an answer to my prayers! I thought, "Now if she can make a 13 year old get really into yoga, she must posses some sort of magic!

Before becoming the co-founder and Program Director of GreenTREE Yoga of Utah, and co-author of Yoga for Kids to Teens (Sunstone Press), Nicole was an elite rowing athlete. The sport was very hard on her body, and she found healing through yoga. Nicole shares her passions nationally as a retreat facilitator/educator with Women Beyond Cancer. She is also a rowing coach for Utah Crew and Huntsman Cancer Institute Wellness Programs.

After you refresh your body and mind, you can indulge your sweet tooth with Nicole's two classes:

Yoga
Healthy Chocolate (which you can eat at! YUM!)

See you there!

Speaker Spotlight: Steven Horne

2010-04-26T08:50:00.000-07:00

I owe a lot to Steven Horne and he doesn't even know it. Steven is the author of The ABC Herbal and when I was starting off in my herbal studies, his little book was like gold to me. It was written in a very easy to understand format and had tons of information I used all the time, and still do to this day, which is why he was one of the first people we asked to present at the conference!

In addition to being an author, Steven is an herbalist, natural health teacher and lives in St. George, Utah. I really do consider him one of today's modern pioneers in the study of herbs. If you take his classes, you will be telling others about him for years to come!

His classes (which are filling up fast!) include:

Understanding Herbal Medicine
The Cold IS the Cure
Pain Relief Without Medication

Speaker Spotlight: Dr. Joseph Humphreys

2010-04-11T21:11:00.000-07:00

We are so excited to have Dr. Humphreys on board!

As the director and brains behind Healing Pediatrics, he has helped so many children recover from their disorders, namely that of autism, ADD and other related maladies.

I invited Dr. Humphreys to attend a vaccination class that I teach a while ago, and knew right away that he not only knew his stuff, but knew much more than I did on the subject! He was one of the first people we contacted to present at the conference and was humbled he make time to do so!

Dr. Humphreys is teaching two classes:

Even if you don't have children, the subject of vaccines affects us all! It would be an hour well spent to come learn from his years of experience and knowledge.

His classes are filling up fast, so register soon!

Speaker Spotlight: Stephanie Greenwood

2010-03-31T08:40:00.000-07:00

A few years ago I bought something called 'Pit Putty'. I was a little skeptical - natural deodorants tend to have a bad reputation. To my delight, the stuff worked! From then on out, I was hooked on Bubble and Bee.

Imagine how happy we were when the owner, Stephanie, agreed to present at the conference!

If you've never tried any Bubble and Bee products, you are missing out. Not to mention the packaging is just fantastic and fun.

Stephanie is teaching 2 classes:

Top Ten Chemicals in Personal Care Products to Avoid

Xenoestrogens: What They Are, How They Affect You, and How to Avoid Them.

Both highly important topics. We are saturated in synthetics in our daily lives, and if people only knew how they were affecting their lives they would make better choices. Luckily there are some great alternatives to all the "stuff" we are being exposed to!

Stephanie says:

"We're dedicated not only to making the purest products around, but educating people about the dangers of chemicals in personal care products. "

We owe it not only to ourselves, but also our children and teens (who are more exposed to these synthetics in my opinion) to learn what we can do to reduce the ill effects of these chemicals on our systems!

Visit Bubble and Bee's Facebook Page here and become a fan!

Come Check Out Our Vendor Map!

2010-03-25T16:26:00.000-07:00

Hooray!
We have it all mapped out, the coveted vendor space.

I love love love vendors at conferences, and boy do we have some great ones already!

Because vendors are being added daily, the vendor pages are always changing, and it's exciting! Come see who we have lined up already.

There is still some space left if you are interested in becoming a vendor. We have some pretty affordable options too?

Need a small space for chair massages or selling greeting cards? We have that.

Need a larger space for all your many wares? We have that, too, but they are almost all gone, so hurry?

Need a space in between? Come take a look!

Speaker Spotlight: Pam Udy

2010-03-22T17:07:00.001-07:00

“Every woman should feel supported in her births and empowered through those births to become a strong, beautiful mother.”

I was so excited when Pam agreed to speak at the conference. Having been a birth junkie for the past 14+ years, I had heard Pam's name floating around for years and years. If you are pregnant or planning on becoming pregnant, you HAVE to go to Pam's classes! The one on VBAC especially is one not to miss, whether you've already had a cesarean or not.

Pam and her husband were married in the Manti Temple (almost) nineteen years ago. They have five children ranging in age from 17 to 6. The first two were scheduled cesareans at 38 weeks due to impatience and ignorance. The next three were natural, vaginal births, with one being born at home.

Pam spends her days being with her children, having fun, learning, teaching, growing, cleaning, reading and laughing. “Homeschooling is the greatest joy and the greatest challenge rolled up in one big eggroll.”

Pam has a late night, part-time job doing housekeeping in the Salt Lake Temple. “I’m doing a little different work than you usually do when you come to the temple, but the Spirit is always there. It is wonderful, while vacuuming, to tune into the Spirit. It is a blessing to be in the Lord’s house several times a week.”

Pam loves to read everything ‘of good report’. She especially loves anything LDS or birth related. She also loves to write and recently started her own blog: thepersonalexperienceexpert.blogspot.com.

Pam is a woman who believes in claiming her age (she’ll be 39 at the conference). “Claim it and be excited. Each year is a blessing from God. Every year has brought me new experiences, new growth, new learning.”

Speaker Spotlight: Julia Holt

2010-03-01T22:29:00.000-08:00

What can I say about Julia except that she is awesome, inspirational, and gifted! I've known Julia for many years now and she's been such a great mentor! You are going to love her.

Julia is the mother of 7, and understands all the struggles and challenges that come along with incorporating a healthy and raw lifestyle with a growing family! This is one thing that makes her so endearing, you can identify with her! She's been there AND done that. As a result of health issues she looked for a way to heal herself holistically; she educated herself and found natural paths to wellness through Living Food, Raw Cooking, Herbal Remedies and Essential Oils.

Not only is she a mother and doula, she is also a raw food coach and teaches classes. Also as an herbal healer, Julia is knowledgeable about herbs and their uses. From tinctures to teas and poultices to potpourri, she can save someone from overused and ineffective modern medical cures.

Juia's classes are:
Living Food and the Living Word: Raw Food Diet and the Scriptures
Raw Food Demo and Q&A (yum!)
Nurturing Ourselves and Our Families Through Herbs, Oils and Raw Foods
Pass the Sugar, Please! Sugar Alternatives

Here's some feedback from happy clients:

“Julia’s a raw foodie with mad skills (especially in the "cake" department) who's always willing to help when there's a need. A life-learner and promoter of health & wellness, she’s devoted to helping others while gaining knowledge that will benefit her family for generations to come.”

“Like a spring breeze, she’s always refreshing and invigorating to be around; I always learn something when I talk to her. She can work magic in the kitchen.”

Speaker Spotlight: Dave Card

2010-02-10T22:31:00.000-08:00

If you live in Northern Utah, you've most likely heard of Dave's two health food stores (DavesHealth.com), Dave's Nutrition. Talk to anyone who'd ever been to one of his classes, been his client or even met him and they'll tell you that Dave is an incredible, dynamic and experienced practitioner! Well educated in herbs, homeopathics, cell salts, and minerals he is sure to bring much to the conference.

Dave was one of the first people we sought out to speak at the conference and we are so excited that he was able to carve out time from his busy practice. He's covering the much needed topics of women and hormones, as well as homeopathy for emergency use and spiritual progress.

Register early for his classes, they are sure to fill up quickly!

Update from the Pecks...

2010-01-31T20:58:00.000-08:00

We apologize for not being more thorough in the previous post! The Peck's wanted to add:

In addition to the two classes mentioned (We Are as the Parents of the Armies of Helaman and Change the World by Living Your Regular Life), they will also offer two more classes:

Teaching Self-Government
and
Fundamentals of the Family Relationships

"We are excited to be part of such a great conference! Our parenting is as holistic as it gets. We believe in going back to the basics of communication to solve the relationship and behavior problems in the family. We don't believe in using tricks to parent children. We believe in teaching them the communication skills they need to learn how to govern themselves. Teaching Self-Government is very much a principle based approach to parenting. No tricks here, just good solid communication skills, which change the hearts of tantrum toddlers to tough teens.

For more information you can visit my blog where I answer people's parenting questions for free. http://teachingselfgovernment.com "

Speaker Spotlight: Nicholeen and Spencer Peck

2010-01-29T11:17:00.000-08:00

We are so excited to have the Pecks presenting! Unruly teen? Out of control toddler? What parent could use real, effective approaches to handing negative behaviors. The Peck's have recently been featured on the BBC's version of The World's Strictest Parents, and are in much demand on the speaking circuit. The Peck's will be presenting:

A House United ~Improving the Family's Relationships by Teaching Self-Government

"I will teach two Teaching Self-Government classes.............One class called "We Are as the Parents of the Armies of Helaman"...................One class with my husband on the Fundamentals of the Family Relationships...............and one class called "Change the World by Living Your Regular Life" Visit the Peck's website and come to the conference and be inspired

Speaker Spotlight: Carolyn Cooper

2010-01-13T08:35:00.000-08:00

“I love doing what I do, because I know when you change the life of one person, you change generations.”

If you've ever been to one of Carolyn's classes, presentations, or been on one of her calls, you know that she is serious and sincere about affecting lives! She is making such a great impact with her knowledge, intution and skill that you will be telling all your friends about her for months!

Carolyn is a gifted, Energy Intuitive and teacher of cutting-edge vibrational healing. With intuition, skill, and amazing simplicity, she aligns all of the energy systems to restore balance and harmony to a body. Because she has a special connection with the ancestors, she can quickly locate and repair flaws in the DNA, some of which have been in the lineage for many generations. This powerful way of healing changes energy patterns as well as subconscious beliefs and clients report profound and life-changing results, usually in only one session.

Visit her website at www.calycohealing.com and be sure to check out her classes at the conference!

Speaker Spotlight: Jonelle Hughes

2009-12-15T12:47:00.000-08:00

We are so happy to have Jonelle speak at the conference. Being the homeschooling mother of 5 (a set of twins in there) is enough to keep her busy, but she has her hand in many things as well and we are grateful for her willingness to educate and inspire us!

Jonelle's background is colorful and diverse. Being the youngest of 7, she was fortunate enough to grow up in a household that was holistic. Her professional direction began as she was a young mother, though, as a doula and childbirth educator. She quickly realized the value of marrying that with what she knew about herbs, which benefited her clients greatly. Opening those doors led into the world of essential oils, and she became a certified aromatherapist after studying with Jeanie Rose. From there she started teaching classes in herbs, oils and health in addition to childbirth education, and her knowledge flourished in Herbalogie.com . As if this wasn't enough, she also is trained in Calyco Healing and is in high demand doing energy sessions.

Jonelle's classes are sure to please! Jonelle likes to call the use of energy work, essential oils and herbs, “The Perfect Trifecta” for living in the energy of joy and happiness!

We're Live!

2009-11-04T19:22:00.000-08:00

We are so happy to have Lara on board to present at the conference! She may be known as The Lazy Organizer, but what you may not know about her is that she and her family have been on an amazing journey to healing!

In Lara's own words:

"It has been a journey that's lasted several years. It started with my daughter's health problems. I took her to doctors that had no idea how to help her so I started talking to people, reading and trying things on my own. A year ago I was lead to a vegan, whole food (mainly raw) diet and have been miraculously cured of my own illnesses and severe depression that I've struggled with for 30 years. I feel like a new person and my life is just beginning!"

Yes, it definitely is.

You are holistic. You are LDS. You may think you are alone. But, by golly, you are not!

I've got news for you...there are a lot of 'us' around, and we are growing exponentially, especially in these last couple of years!

Finally you have your own event where you can network and learn from those who share your priorities, philosophies and interests.

So, mark your calendars for this awesome event....
