HEALTHY AND SAFE AWAY FROM HOME continues to offer health presentations and workshops. They address any individual interested in general health issues and can be booked for company events, professional development for childcare facilities, friends and as a family event.
INTRODUCTION TO GENTLE REMEDIES
A good and healthy immune system is the base for a healthy life. Nature offers us a broad variety of resources in the form of medicinal herbs, plant and other foods. From aloe to zinc, different medicinal plants and products have effects on different part of our body. These "boosters" are an excellent stimulus for our immune system. With research looking at complementary healing methods, these treatments find new support based on scientific knowledge.
This presentation encourages and shows participants how to help themselves and their families in case of an illness using supplies found in the kitchen, the garden or the grocery store.
Special topics such as treatments for children, during menopause and post-menopausal may be chosen.
Duration: generally 4 hours, can be customised from 2 hours

GENTLE REMEDIES & COMPRESSES AND POULTICES FOR INFANTS AND CHILDREN
Tummy ache, cough, ear ache and fever are as much part of every day life with children as are grazed knees, bruises and other small injuries. A trip to the paediatrician is not always necessary. In some cases, parents can help their child themselves, for example with a good old compress or poultice.
Minor ailments of sick children may be relieved or soothed through infusions, topical applications and different compresses and poultices. They might not be as easily administered as medications, but applied correctly are free from side effects. Compresses and poultices are inexpensive and natural alternatives to support the body's own defences and healing forces.
This hands-on workshop is for parents and other adults caring for infants and children. You will learn about different applications and measures for the common cold, cough and many other ailments.
Part of the applications will be performed and practised by participants.
Duration: 3.5 hours
