Guest guest Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 , do you know anything else about how to relax the parasympathetic system, to enable healing? My boy is in constant flight/fright - has dilated pupils even when photos taken with a flash (checked this out the other day!) I am defo going to try this. I wonder if its ok to do with OTC patches. any thoughts? hyperstimulation has kept my boy from learning, he just cannot sit. He is almost six and still flits like a little bird. No desk work, no writing or colouring in, he just cant sit - all done on his terms which is ok, but so much slower than what could have been. > > The improvements in Sophie's son are just amazing.

Guest guest Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 this is what ritalin is supposed to be doing isnt it? it stimulates the brain into hyperdrive so the parasympathetic kicks in? maybe i am wrong. is this what marijuana does too? i am going to try this (nicotine) asap > > The improvements in Sophie's son are just amazing.
