Homeopathy, a gentle model for tending children
by Elizabeth Trail
GREENSBORO — Most of the
five women who came to the
Greensboro library on Thursday
evening knew one another well,
giving the gathering an intimate
feeling. The occasion was a talk by
Judy Jarvis, a homeopathic
practitioner, about using
homeopathic remedies and
essential oils on children. Each of
the mothers arrived with questions,
mostly about specific issues they
were experiencing in their families
— a baby with a cold, a growing
child with leg cramps, a preteen
having trouble falling asleep, a
teenager under stress.
However, the first question,
asked by Virginia LaPierre, a
mother of five children ranging in
age from four to 13, was more basic. “How do I make homeopathy
automatic?” she asked. “For
example, when one of my children
gets a cut or scrape, I reach for the
Neosporin. How do I get to the
point where I just know which
homeopathic treatment to reach for
instead?”
“You need to keep good notes,”
replied Ms. Jarvis. “Make a chart
with each child’s name, and write
down what you tried and how it
worked. You’ll find that something
that works on one child may not
work for another, or that
something that worked on one child
in one situation doesn’t work on the
same child when the circumstances
are different. Over time, you’ll
learn what to reach for.”
Ms. LaPierre looked slightly
crestfallen. There are few
equivalents in homeopathy to Dr.
Benjamin Spock’s Baby and Child
Care, that staple of an earlier
generation of mothers, which
offered one-size-fits-all solutions to
the crises of parenting.
Ms. Jarvis, the mother of two
now grown children, is also owner
of Riverside Farm, a 20-acre
organic vegetable farm and CSA
outside of Hardwick. She began to
use homeopathic remedies when
her children were small. Over
time, her fascination grew, and in
2004 she went to Canada for a
three-year certification course at
the Hahnemann College of
Heilkunst in Ottawa. She is now
in the middle of a two-year
program on using essential oils,
another alternative therapy which
complements her work in
homeopathy. As she answered
questions about remedies for
specific complaints, her
recommendations were drawn from
both schools of treatment.
“Homeopathy is very specific to
circumstances,” she explained.
“You have to be able to ask a lot of
questions. When you don’t know
the answers, or your child doesn’t
want to answer, sometimes oils are
a better option.” Essential oils are rubbed onto
the skin, placed by the drop on
energy points, or diffused into the
air. Homeopathic remedies are
highly diluted substances, typically
sold as tiny sugar pills in glass
vials, although there are also
homeopathic powders, ointments,
and topical preparations.
around the shoulder blades. It’s
used for helping a child to relax at
bedtime.
“I need someone to do that for
me!” exclaimed one mother. Heads
nodded. In fact, Ms. Jarvis
frequently reminded the women
that caring for themselves was an
essential part of caring for their
families.
Homeopathy, an alternative
mode of treatment founded in the
late 1700s by a German physician
Local homeopathic practitioner Judy Jarvis spoke at the Greensboro Public
Library on April 16 on the subject of using homeopathic remedies and essential
oils for children’s health.

Ms. Jarvis passed around
bottles of essential oils to smell. A
delicate patchouli brought smiles,
while a bottle of chamomile oil
wrinkled some noses. She helped
the women find the sensitive
pressure points along the body’s
energy meridians where the oils
should be applied.
Pressure points often feel
startlingly different from
surrounding tissue when
pressed. According to Chinese
traditional medicine, each point
corresponds to one of the internal
organs or glands. Rubbing or
pressing the points — the same
points used in acupuncture — can
free blocked energy and restore
balance in the body.
Ms. Jarvis demonstrated a
gentle figure eight massage,
stroking down the spine and
named Samuel Hahnemann, is
based on the “law of similars,”
sometimes phrased as “like cures
like.” If a substance causes a given
set of symptoms or reactions,
homeopathy says that the same
substance, in highly diluted form,
can be used to treat problems that
display those symptoms. In part,
because Dr. Hahnemann rejected
bloodletting and some of the other
harmful practices of the day,
patients often did better than they
would have with conventional
treatment, and homeopathy quickly
developed a following.
The vocabulary of homeopathy
is strange to modern ears. Many of
the substances, such as lead, or
arsenic, or belladonna, are toxic at
full strength.
In addition to plant extracts,
venoms, minerals, and elements,
the homeopathic medicine chest
includes “nosodes,” which are made
from diseased tissue such as
tumors, mastitis tissue, pus, or the
phlegm from tuberculosis or
whooping cough patients. These
substances are sterilized, dried,
made into a tincture, and then
“potentized,” according to
homeopathic principles, Ms. Jarvis
explained.
Another group of homeopathic
remedies are “cell salts,” 12
minerals which were originally
identified as essential components
of the human body by measuring
the quantities of those minerals left
behind in the ash residue of
cremated bodies. Cell salts include three types of
calcium, three types of phosphorus,
and three types of sodium, plus
iron, magnesium, and silica.
Highly diluted and mixed with
lactose, cell salts dissolve quickly in
the mouth and are believed to
replenish nutrients directly
through the mucous membranes.
“Cell salts are more
nutritional,” said Ms. Jarvis. “They
are a good place to start if you are
just learning about homeopathy.”
Successful use of homeopathy
requires keen observation, not only
of physical symptoms, but also of
the patient’s emotional state,
circumstances, and even the
weather. “For any set of symptoms, there
are many substances which might
be appropriate,” said Ms. Jarvis.
“You have to keep reading, and
look for matches to more specific
parts of your situation.” For example, aconite is
appropriate for fevers that come on
quickly, especially when the
weather is brisk and windy. When
the fever is accompanied by damp
skin, red cheeks and a throbbing
headache, belladonna is the better
choice, she told the group.
While some remedies are
almost universal, others are gender
or age specific. In fact, Ms. Jarvis
cautioned several times that
certain substances being discussed
were fine for adults but were too
strong or otherwise not appropriate
for children.
Dogs, cats, other pets, and
livestock can also be treated
homeopathically, but again, the
treatments are often species,
gender, and circumstance specific,
Ms. Jarvis said.
For quick reference, she
recommends a book called
Everybody’s Guide to Homeopathic
Medicine, by Stephen Cummings,
MD, and Dana Ullman, MPH. For
more in-depth research, she relies
on Materia Medica, the central
textbook of homeopathy.

Hmm. So what do I do with this?
Ruminations
by Tena Starr
This is an interactive column.
Sometimes on Sundays I listen to “The
Splendid Table,” a National Public Radio show
about cooking. One of my favorite segments is
when people call in to say what’s in their
refrigerator, and Lynne Rosetto Kasper comes up
with some terrific meal that can be made with
that particular set of however disparate
ingredients.
She’s a hell of a lot more creative than I am,
but then she’s a professional cook and talk show
host, and I am not.
If someone said to me, well, I have a papaya
and some fresh fish and a jar of peach preserves
my neighbor gave me, I would say, eat the
papaya in bed with your partner, save the
preserves for breakfast toast, and forget about
the fish for now since you’re otherwise occupied
with the papaya.
Lynne Rosetto Kasper, on the other hand,
would figure out how to put all those things
together to make something great.
Still, it’s a fun question, and probably how
many people cook. What do you have, so what do
you do with it?
There are times when I go shopping for
ingredients for a particular meal, but not
generally. Most of us make something from what
we have.
I have a serious advantage in the way of
options. My freezer contains lamb, venison,
frozen garden vegetables, homemade pesto, and
the berries we pick. The summer’s root
vegetables and squash last into the winter.
This is not a family that’s going hungry
anytime soon, despite the fact that my son
constantly tells me there is nothing to eat in the
house. (I have learned this actually means there
is nothing to eat that doesn’t require some
preparation. No frozen pizza or burritos, potato
chips, Ramen noodles, or boxed macaroni and
cheese.)
So today I have been playing the “Splendid
Table” game with myself for a few days. I have a
pound of thawed ground lamb in the fridge, but I
suspect that’s not common.
Steve and I happen to be fond of lamb, so we
buy two butchered lambs each year and get boxes
of whatever cuts we get.
For a lot of recipes, lamb can be substituted
for beef. It’s particularly good in shepherd’s pie
or stew. But it’s not cheap, and it’s never
available at the two grocery stores I frequent.
So, for the purposes of this column, we’ll
pretend it’s beef. Here’s my best Lynne Rossetto
Kasper imitation.
I have beets, eggs, sweet potatoes, onions,
and leftover mashed potatoes. The rules are, you
don’t have to use everything you have on hand;
you just have to use what you’ve got and nothing
more.
Of these ingredients, a meal can be made.
The mashed potatoes get turned into patties,
rolled in corn meal, and fried in a little butter.
The beets can be used in an unlikely sounding
salad that a former mother-in-law made. I have
no idea if it was her invention — certainly I’ve
never seen the recipe anywhere else, or known
anyone else to make it. But she boiled eggs, then
chopped them up with boiled beets, and added
some chopped raw onion and a little mayonnaise.
It’s better than it sounds.
And that aforementioned lamb, which we’re
pretending is hamburger, is fried into patties, as
well.
Or it could become meatballs.
Meatballs could go into a sandwich, if you
happen to have sub rolls. Add sauteed onions,
melted cheese, a thick tomato sauce, or all three,
and sauteed green pepper — if you happen to
have one. (Okay. Not fair. I also have
homemade tomato sauce in the freezer, with
green peppers in it.)
Here’s another bit of making do with what
you have, since many people generally have pasta
and cheese in the house. Mac and cheese.
Everyone has a mac and cheese dish.
Here’s mine:
Cook veggie rotini pasta. That’s just our
preference, any pasta will do; the sauce is what

matters. Make a basic white sauce, which
involves two-three tablespoons of butter, about
the same of flour. Stir vigorously with a whisk
then dump in some milk and stir more vigorously
until it thickens. Add more milk to get it to the
consistensy you want. Add cheese — a lot of
cheddar (at least a cup of it grated) some
Parmesan, and even American. Keep tasting it to
see if it needs more flavor. When it’s thick and
cheesy, dump it over the pasta, and crush Saltines
over the top. Bake at 350 until it’s all hot.
This night, we’ll have corn muffins (since I
have corn meal), roasted sweet potato rings (oh,
why do people insist on boiling vegetables?) and
baked chicken legs tossed in crushed corn flakes
that are starting to go stale.
Not fancy, but it’s all there, and about
making do with what you have.
Come to think of it, some of the best dishes
are the result of using what you have, especially
if an ingredient is getting a little weary in its
traditional role. Think French toast, which was
intended to use up stale bread.
So back to the interactive part. Tell us what
you do with the ingredients in your fridge or
cupboards to make a meal of what you have.
Every parent who works all day and comes home
to hungry kids and not a lot of time to prepare a
decent meal wants to know.

At home with the law of averages
Yours from the Perimeter
by Paul Lefebvre
Every year spring comes to the high reaches
of the Upper Kingdom in fits and starts, and
every year I let the overnight fire go out, lured by
the illusion of a warm and sunny day to come.
Usually I wake up to a cold house and
scramble to find scraps of kindling to start a fire.
Why I keep fooling myself year after year is
probably the reason I live here — in what
meteorologists are forever calling a cold pocket in
the region’s higher elevations.
Who, after all, doesn’t want to beat the odds?
People who gamble and play scratch tickets at
the Legion tell me the more often you play, the
more likely you are to win. I have known
baseball players who followed the same dubious
rules of mathematics whenever they fell into a
prolonged slump.
“Don’t worry,” they have been overheard
telling themselves. “You’re going to snap out of
it. You’ll be fine. You’ve got the law of averages
working for you now.”
Sometimes in the spring the law of averages
can mirror the law of unintended consequences.
That’s the law that allows something to happen
that wasn’t expected to occur when you did X, Y
and Z.
For example, the law of averages convinces
me I don’t have to keep my water running in
April to prevent it from freezing. But then an
unusually warm spring comes along and drives
the frost deeper into the ground and freezes my
water line, which is buried three or four feet deep.
To ward off the law of unintended
consequences, I seldom mention the law of
averages out loud. If I do, I knock on wood to
acknowledge and lift the law of hexes.
Certainly, being on the down side of the law
of averages can inadvertently result in some
nasty unintended consequences. To escape
surprises I knew a carpenter who every now and
then smacked his thumb with a hammer, just to
turn the law of averages around in his favor.
Unfortunately, spring is immune to human
intervention. Too often in the Upper Kingdom it’s
the season we only see over our shoulder. The
moment we turn to greet it head on, it vanishes
like a shadow. As a season, it’s a work in
progress. One moment it bursts into summer; the
next, and it’s winter all over again.
“What do you think?” says Rose on a morning
in April when the sky is clear as a whistle and
the day is so warm you can almost coax yourself
into believing you are through with all things
winter, that snow and ice were yesterday’s
problems.
We were standing in my yard watching the
frost come out of the ground when she asked: “Is
it too early to switch my tires?”
I hedged and tried to think back on springs
past. When was the last time we had snowstorm
in April that closed the schools, disrupted
commerce, and caused people to swear they were
through with the Upper Kingdom, once and for
all?
In other words, where were we in that great
equation of life — the law of averages? I didn’t
know.
“I run snow tires all year-round,” I replied in
hopes she wouldn’t be depressed that someone
who has lived in the Upper Kingdom for nearly
all his 70 years didn’t have a clue which way the
season would tilt.
As someone who grew up in a place where
spring arrived at a predictable time on the
calendar, Rose had been pining for weeks to see
bare ground, or even a glimpse of bare pavement.
It didn’t matter. She wasn’t fussy. Any
reassurance would do. I couldn’t blame her.
I knew she was feeling increasingly fed up
with a cross-climate season that was forcing her
to bring armfuls of firewood in from next year’s
order, which had been stacked evenly in rows
next to the driveway, and diligently standing up
each piece over the furnace registers so all would
be dry when it came time to feed the fire.
To cover up my own uncertainty and to avoid
adding to her own discomfort, I reminded Rose we
were getting more spring than we did years ago
when I was a kid. During those years when we
went into the woods brook fishing on the first day
of the new season, May 1, we often would sink
into the snow over our boots on our way to our
favorite holes.
Usually I came home with wet feet and no

fish, much to my mother’s displeasure. “If you
don’t catch anything, why do you keep going year
after year?” she’d say with a disapproving look.
She had little or no faith in the law of
averages.
In the spring a muddy road is a road where
the law of averages seldom applies. It’s a season
where the back roads around my house are as
empty as the caves where bears sleep away the
winter.
Mud and ruts rule. I have encountered ruts
as deep as a foot — and you always have to be
prepared to make your way through a minefield
of potholes. One of my favorite images of an
Upper Kingdom spring is a muffler with tailpipe
still attached sticking out of a 55-gallon drum
placed at the head of a driveway.
I didn’t know who lived at the end of the
driveway, nor were there any telltale signs on the
road to indicate where the hazard might be
lurking. But whoever went to the trouble had left
a warning, arguably more effective than any
town-posted weight limit sign, that this was a
road to be wary of, and you might want to choose
another route.
There are people who argue it is easier to
play the law of averages in the spring than in any
other season. They point out if you run out of
firewood you won’t freeze to death. Or if
something mechanical doesn’t work, just wait
awhile and maybe it won’t make any difference.
But spring’s unpredictable nature can scatter
optimism like buckshot. It shoots holes through
your anticipation, or causes you to believe this
might be the year when summer fails to follow
spring. Vermonters early in the nineteenthcentury experienced a year without summer. So,
it can happen.
If I were a gambling man I would bet this is
not the year we get a frost every month. Or a
year when it either rains every day or the water
table plunges to new lows. The tough and long
winter and a balky spring are working in our
favor. If in doubt, just consider the law of
averages.

Obituaries
Ronald Lee Magoon, 54, of
Amherst, New Hampshire, husband
of Arlene M. (Abrams) Magoon, died
on Wednesday, April 8, 2015, at the
Community Hospice House in
Merrimack, New Hampshire.
A resident of Amherst for the
past 30 years, Mr. Magoon was born
in Boston, Massachusetts, on
August 26, 1960, son of Judith (Hill)
Magoon and the late Kenneth
Magoon, who died August 26, 2011.
Mr. Magoon lived in Newport
during his youth and was a
graduate of North Country Union
High School, Class of 1978. He
furthered his education in Ohio and
was currently attending Southern
New Hampshire University.
Mr. Magoon was employed as a
supervisor and senior technician at
Vectron International of Hudson,
New Hampshire, for the past 15
years.
Members of his family include
his wife, Arlene, whom he married
in 1985; his mother, Judith Magoon,
of Newport; three children:
Chrysann Magoon of Marlborough,
Massachusetts, Marcel Chabot and
his wife Dorothy of Amherst, New
Hampshire, and Caitlyn Folia and
her husband, Eric, of Auburn, New
Hampshire; four grandchildren:
Helen Muriel Barnes
Waterhouse Sim, born September
28, 1923, in Island Pond, daughter
of Cydney and Marjorie Barnes,
died April 11 at her home in Isle La
Motte.
She was the mother of two
daughters, Marjorie Bertram and
Joyce Tuck, both of Isle La Motte.
She was also grandmother of six,
great-grandmother of 12, and great-
Ronald Lee Magoon
Alexa Rose, Travis Ronald, Ariana
Matteline, and Charlotte Lee; his
brother Barry Magoon and his wife,
Mary, of North Carolina; a nephew
and niece, Jordan Magoon and
Bailey Magoon of North Carolina;
his aunt Rachel Magoon of Waldorf,
Maryland; and cousins Carol Moore
of Vermont and Betty Nolin of
Florida. In addition to his father,
Ron was predeceased by an aunt,
Lois Moore, of Derby Line.
A typical Saturday afternoon
would find Mr. Magoon in the
garage tinkering with his latest
invention and sharing ideas with his
stepson Marcel, who moved his
family back from Michigan when
Mr. Magoon was diagnosed with
cancer. They live just three miles
from the family home.
Mr. Magoon’s shared interest in
travel with stepdaughter Caitlyn
inspired travel adventures to
Canada, North Carolina, California
and Oregon. His youngest
daughter, Chrysann, brought him
great joy, especially during football
season where they became the
Patriots’ biggest “couch coaches.”
Steaks on the grill and their
humorous banter made any score a
winner.
Mr. Magoon loved his
motorcycle. He ventured on many
trips with friends, touring New
England. A motorcycle trip to Nova
Scotia with his wife and friends was
one of his favorite adventures.
Another of his favorite vehicles
was his Kubota tractor. Several
holes in the yard and many rocks
have been rearranged by his
maneuvering skills. On one Fourth
of July, the Kubota was used to pull
the family float in the Amherst
parade. The float won most colorful.
Cancer was a challenge to be
met. After diagnosis he bought a
retriever puppy and named him
Shiloh. During experimental
treatments, chemo, and declining
health, Shiloh was his compassionate
pal, sharing the best and the worse
days remaining at his side defying
the odds.
Mr. Magoon’s final gift to this
world came unexpectedly but is long
lasting. On two occasions he was
asked to speak to the medical
community about palliative care
from the patient’s point of view.
Having never spoken in a public
forum, he bravely stepped up and
honestly spoke about cancer care.
He made a difference.
Memorial visitation was held at
the Farwell Funeral Home Nashua

her. She was active in the Swanton
Congregational Church and a
member of the First Club.
She married James Sim and
made her home in Alburg. She
attended St. Luke’s Episcopal
In Loving Memory of
Church in Alburg where she was an
active member until her death.
She graduated from Lyndon

some thought was courageous, nearly impossible

both the planning and designing of her Vans
shoes. Mikayla not only worked hard in class,
but also spent countless hours before and after
school working towards the completion of her
shoes. She demonstrated motivation, passion,

beautiful success. It’s clear that Mikayla finds
enjoyment in, and appreciation for, the artistic
process. Her work habits, artistic abilities, and
pride are qualities that are admired in the art
room. Whether her shoes make it to the finals or

substance is, the more potent it is considered to be.
Preparation of a homeopathic remedy begins
by putting one drop of a mother tincture in nine
drops of water. One drop of that solution is taken
out and diluted with another nine drops of water,
and one drop of that solution is taken out and
diluted with another nine drops of water. The
number on the label tells how many times the
process has been repeated.
Critics charge that the resulting solution is so
diluted that it contains little, if any, of the labeled
ingredient. A 12X solution, for example, contains
only one molecule per trillion of the original
tincture.
Supporters of homeopathy say that the
combination of dilution and shaking leaves a
memory of the active substance in the water.
There are many stories about remarkable
successes with homeopathic treatments. “Each dilution leaves more energy in the
bottle,” explained Ms. Jarvis. “By the time you
get to higher levels of potentization, it is working
more on a spiritual level than on a physical one,
and that is very powerful.”
“Homeopathy’s effectiveness has not been
verified by large randomized controlled trials,
which is to say we don’t know that it works,” said
Mali Royer Zuses, a resident in family medicine
at the University of Maryland Medical Center
and herself the mother of a young child, in an
online interview. During her medical training, Dr. Zuses
worked with a doctor of osteopathy who used
homeopathic remedies in his practice.
“His intake appointment for homeopathy was
more than an hour long — I think it was the
interview that actually helped those patients.
Having a compassionate listener focus their
attention on you for that long — it was very
similar to a therapy session.”
Her own experience with homeopathy was not
successful. When her son was born, Dr. Zuses
had a post-partum hemorrhage. The midwife
treated her first with a homeopathic remedy. “I remember thinking I hope this isn’t the
best she has. Luckily it was not,” Dr. Zuses said.
She stopped bleeding after receiving conventional
medical treatment.

GLOVER COMMUNITY SCHOOL
KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION
FRIDAY, MAY 8, 2015 • 8:30 a.m. - 3 p.m.
If your child is 5 years old, or will be 5 on or
before September 1, 2015, please attend this
registration session.
Please bring your child, your child’s birth
certificate, your child’s Social Security number, your
child’s immunization records, and any important
health information regarding your child.
You and your child will be meeting with the
kindergarten teacher, the school nurse, and the
speech pathologist.
Please call Glover Community School at
525-6958 to set up an appointment.
Ms. Jarvis deflects the question of whether
homeopathy can be scientifically proven to be
effective. “People need tools,” she says. “When your
child is hurting, you may know that this is a
childhood illness and that they will be better in a
couple of days, but you want to do something. So
you experiment until you find something that helps.”
Dr. Zuses agrees with that perspective.
“Sometimes as a parent it helps just to feel like
you’re doing something. Plus placebo is a pretty
good medicine,” she said.
Homeopathy is generally very safe, Ms. Jarvis
said. “By the time you get to
higher levels of
potentization, it is
working more on a
spiritual level than on a
physical one, and that is
very powerful.”
“I have tried taking remedies that are
supposed to be inimical to each other — that
should not be taken together — and I’ve never
had a reaction.” However, she cautioned that children with
severe allergies to substances such as bee venom or
poison ivy should not be treated with homeopathic
remedies that contain that ingredient.
“Homeopathy is not likely to be harmful in
and of itself,” says Dr. Zuses. “What concerns me
is people using homeopathic remedies instead of
evidence-based treatment.”
Ms. Jarvis’s therapeutic approach encourages
mothers to be aware — both for themselves and
for their children — of eating well, drinking
enough water, and getting plenty of rest and
exercise. To relieve stress, she advocated talking
problems out with a friend or family member,
walking outdoors, writing in a journal, or getting
a massage. Notice of a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI)
USDA Rural Development's Rural Energy for America
Program (Rural Business Service) has received an application for financial assistance from Barton Solar LLC to purchase and install a 1.89MW solar array system that will be
located on Glover Road in Barton, VT. The construction of
the system will impact 18,042 square feet of wetlands and
38,938 square feet of wetland buffer zone. The proposed
construction has been designed and sited to minimize
impact.
As required by the National Environmental Policy Act, the
Rural Utilities Service has assessed the potential environmental effects of the proposed project and has determined
that the proposal will not have a significant effect on the
human environment and for which an Environment Impact
Statement will not be prepared. The basis of this determination is an appeal determination from the National
Appeals Division (NAD) regarding practicable alternatives.
Copies of the Environmental Assessment are available for
review at USDA Rural Development, Vermont State Office
located at: 87 State Street, Suite 324, 3rd Floor, Montpelier,
Vt. 05602. For further information please contact Jonathan
Harries at (802) 828-6035. Any person interested in
commenting on this FONSI may submit comments to the
address above by April 30, 2015. A general location map
of the proposal is shown below.

Essential oils can be mixed with Epsom salts
and added to a hot bath for relaxation, she said.
However, homeopathy is not a cure for every
ill, Ms. Jarvis warned.
“Be aware of jurisdiction,” she reminded her
audience. “Homeopathy won’t correct failure of
lifestyle. If your headache is caused by not
getting enough sleep or exercise, or smoking, or
not drinking enough water, it’s not homeopathy’s
job to fix it. You need to get that sleep or
exercise, drink enough water, or stop smoking.”
Throughout the session, Ms. Jarvis continued
to emphasize that it’s important to listen to
children, talk to them, and be sure that all of
their physical and emotional needs were being
met in addition to specific treatments.
“Help your children honor their bodies and
figure out where they hold their emotions,” she
advised.
The stories the mothers told, and the
questions they asked, reflected their deep
involvement with their childrens’ well being. One
young mother described rubbing her toddler
daughter’s feet with oils when she was fretful at
night with a cold. Another helps her children
relax for sleep by diffusing lavender oils into the
air in their bedrooms. The final takeaway from the evening was a
gentle and positive model of parenting — and a
reminder to mothers not to neglect themselves in
the process.

“Every summer CLiF’s summer readers
grant serves thousands of children across New
Hampshire and Vermont,” says Jana Brown,
CLiF program manager. “We partner with many
capable organizations that serve kids in
need. CLiF offers extra support to these groups
and the kids they serve by introducing kids to an
inspiring author or storyteller and giving them
the opportunity to select and keep their own
reading material. This encourages kids to read
for pleasure and combats the ‘summer slide’ in
reading skills.”
