1. 2 CHAPTERS FROM MY BOOK TO SHARE WITH YOU

2. INTRODUCTION

3. “Health Depends On BeingIn HarmonyWith YourSoul” Edward Bach I was brought to flower remedies through trauma. I never expected it to be the life altering plan for my future. We know plants and flowers bring beauty, but I would have never believed that it can have such a powerful effect on our mental and emotional health as well. It took me from the depthsn of anxiety and sadness and brought me back to who I am, no more anxiety or sadness and found my purpose. Everyone needs to have a purpose in their life. That is when I knew I had to learn more and tell others -especially moms to “Go Beyond What We Know,” that we do have the power, and the resources to take control of our family’s mental health. It all makes perfect sense doesn’t it? If we havebeen given all we need for food, for shelter, why wouldn’t we be given all source for health as well from our amazing earth?

4. When you incorporate a given “diagnosis” with what we inherit from family, environmental effects, trauma from before birth and on and all the unknowns, it feels like it does take a village! When I work with a client, many share their doctors’ “diagnosis” with me. The way I work and the way you will work with this book is by looking at each symptom individually, if there is a known cause, then find the right remedy blend usingdifferent remedies. This plan works whether you feel it’s a symptom related to “autism” or not. I am sure that not only your child on the spectrum may have behaviors that you would like to see reversed, but also your other children, or you, or your partner. No one gets to go through this life untouched by trauma or challenges. My goal with this book is to help you rejuvenate your mind, body, and spirit and that of your family using plant medicine (aka “flower remedies”). Most will see and feel positive thoughts and notice positive enhancements in your relationships, your family, and your home in a very short time once your begin using the flower remedies. They will help bring out your personal best, calming the negative, the fears, the anger, thed isconnectedness, the frustration, therelationship challenges adults and children struggle with. It brings you back to the true person you were before the negative thoughts, feelings and behaviors found their way inside your mind. You’ve found ways to help yourself and your child physically. This is the missing piece, a powerful piece, to move you and your family back to harmony.

5. You will see the amazing transformations in the many videos we have on our site or on YouTube, where clients discuss their struggles with intense anxiousness, sadness, feeling stuck, child behavior challenges, simple confidence, bed wetting, tantrums, grief, even assault. You will see just how my clients, many coming to me when traditional medicine did not help or out of desperation,used these flower remedies to return to themselves. I am consistently amazed at the power of the flowers! Although the power of flower remedies isnot well known throughout the U.S., theyare used as a part of daily life throughout Europe, and in the hospitals of Brazil. I am working hard to educate and teach people all over the U.S. the power of using these extracts to help stay in a positive state of mind, or return back to it. I also teach this healing modality in a course specializing in emotional and mental wellness. The goal is to help raise awareness on their intense health benefit and make this an intellectually accepted healing modality. What flower remedies do is bring out the most positive person you are, the true person you are. They take you from feeling scared (imbalanced) to empowered and courageous (balanced):not because it’s changing your personality but because it is who you truly are! Take the stories in this book seriously, get excited about where the remedies can take you, and be ready to move forward, helping yourself and your family feel your most positive, peaceful, joyful, successful way.

6. Use this book as your guide. The goal is to help you choose the correct flower remedies to reverse specific negative challenges that affect you, your child, and your family. What are flower remedies? They are extracts created by plants and flowers. They have no scent, they are liquids created through the plant, water and energy, the heat and power of the sun. It is “energyhealing,” and scientists are learning more about energy medicine and how it affects our bodies health and wellness. There is plenty to read onthis subject. You should also know, I am not paid byany of the producers in this book. I recommend these specific remedies because I work with them with all my clients and they produce excellent results. When I teach others to become Practitioners specializing in emotional health and wellness, these are some of the brands of remedies they will be using. If you interested in learning more about this, send an email to amycohen@StrongestMinds.com to learn how you can become part of the alternative health movement and community specializing in emotional & mental health and wellness. The first client story I share with you in the book was also my very first client. It was a true eye opener and WOW moment and a sign I needed to learn more! I share her story with you, in her words, to see how she helped me tosee that these remedies were bigger than all of us and God had a plan much bigger thanI ever saw - and that is to get this out to you.

7. JOANNE’S STORY

8. (I shortened and changed names for confidentiality but will find full letter on my site) “I would like to tell you all about a real live miracle that has happened to my family. I have two boys, both with special needs. One is eight, and since the age of three has been treated for bipolar and ADHD with no results. My other son is seven and is on the spectrum. By the age of three, my older son was hospitalized in a children’s psychiatric unit. He continued to get hospitalized several times a year for the next four years.” “Doctors told me that his case was one of, if not the most severe case they had ever seen. No one wanted to treat him. They marked him as an ‘untreatable child.' He tried to take his life several times over that course claiming ‘people were telling him to.' “I was lost and devastated. My son could not be trusted with other son left alone for a second. We went through several schools, doctors, therapists, and specialists, and he just kept getting worse and worse until my biggest fear came true. I was told the only option left was residential treatment. “I was just a mother who loved her son unconditionally. In the mean time, during all of this, I did not realize my younger son had problems of hisown. He entered kindergarten, and things began to show the most then. He spent hisdays in his world, withdrawn from everyone, mostly sitting under his desk and rolling around on the floor. The teachers had given upon him and passed him through two grades, even though he had not completed ANY work for the whole year. I got him evaluated, and he was diagnosed “on the spectrum.” ADD YOURTEXT

9. A very good friend came to me and told me to look into natural cures. Did he think some herbs could help my son when $10,000 of the best meds in the field proved to do nothing for him? But after a long talk, he was right, I was losing my son, and this was theo nly thing I had left to try!” I found Amy and she started (us) right away on a remedy for not just children,but for myself as well, to help with the stress, sadness, care taking. I was still skeptical but willing to try. I prepared myself for another dead end, more so now because this seemed like a fantasy. She had already told me that it takes about a month to see changes but to stick with it.” “TWO WEEKS LATER, my younger son (the one on the spectrum) brought home his first 100 on his spelling test, I laughed hysterically. Could this be true? Was it REALLY working, OMG!? From then on, I started getting piles of papers every day from school with As and big Cs on them. I was in shock! He started making friends, and after a meeting with the school, I found out that he was now participating in activities, completing all his work HAPPILY and stopped all the crying he was doing in school. The school asked me what we changed. They claimed he was a completely different child and said they didn’t know what had happened but to keep doing whatever we were doing. ADD YOURTEXT

10. . (I smiled inside for the first time in years.)” My older son was still having issues with violence and temper tantrums in school. Two weeks later, the full month marker to the day, I would say he had a breakdown in the car. He started telling me all kinds of things, personal things he was struggling with, and things that made him feel the way he does. That was four months ago, and the last day he ever hit someone! He now has made a complete turnaround, and his doctors and therapists cannot believe it either. In just four months of this treatment, my seven-year-old turned into a happy, straight -A student who has now had his medication for ADHD taken down, and my eight-year-old was taken off of five of his seven medications and is in the process of being weaned off of the last two! They are both doing GREAT, and for the first time in five years, my son is out of crisis!” “I was a skeptic, and now I thank God that he put this in my path. may sound crazy, but my family is living proof it really does work.” I gain nothing but self- satisfaction from writing this story in hopes that even one child can reap the same benefits we have. My goal is and has always been to defend and help special needs children, and I would be more than happy to help anyone who wants more info orhas any questions about our success with this treatment. Thankyouagain.” - Joanne R. ADD YOURTEXT
