\"\"<\/p>\n

About a year ago, I wrote a two-piece series<\/a> on my concern for our world\u2019s mental health. In it, I stated:<\/p>\n

With more people struggling with depression, and more young people being treated, one wonders why the medical community <\/em>is blind to the importance<\/em><\/a> of taking a broader perspective and digging deeper into the causes. It may be time to embrace the <\/em>personalized and naturopathic medicine approach<\/em><\/a> to consider each unique individual\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, my pleas for better care to those struggling with psychiatric illnesses haven\u2019t been heeded and my apprehension for our nation\u2019s mindset has only worsened.<\/p>\n

Recently, I discussed the many interconnections between environmental and biological<\/a> factors with brain issues. I\u2019ve also highlighted how many aspects that impact cognitive functioning can be assisted by essential oils<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In my latest post<\/a>, I further dive into this topic. I explain how to support children with special needs with the challenging transition of going back to school.<\/p>\n

Patience and an understanding of how the brains of those with psychiatric disorders differ is critical in helping to address them effectively and end the stigma related to them.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m on a mission to get the word out on how essential oils can assist those with emotional and psychological concerns and contribute to healing our younger, \u201csadder world.\u201d<\/p>\n
