How to Protect Your Family from EMF

I care deeply about the food we eat, the chemicals we expose ourselves to and the overall way we take care of ourselves. I am not naive when it comes to how different our world is then it was 100 years ago. Things have changed rapidly and I believe that with each change, we have a responsibility as human beings to educate ourselves and have an awareness of our way of life, including what we eat and what we expose ourselves to.

With the boy it was a wet towel on his bedroom floor, growing a smelly mildew into the carpet all day. With the girl it was the look she made sometimes when I asked her to help with dinner.

Do you know that you have a built-in mechanism to take care of those every-day (or not so every-day) frustrations? Yes! God, in His awesome mercy and design created our bodies to move and for specific chemicals to be released after we do so which can help us manage those frustrations and anger.

Why is this room such a mess?" I hollered into empty space. The summoned boys didn't answer, as I realized they were probably playing happily in the back yard, having escaped my instruction to pick up first while I was emptying the dryer...

Anger seems to be a common struggle among moms. There will always be triggers that make us angry, it's what we do with our anger that matters. 

I think we often forget we are parenting children, not adults and raising people who are born into sin and prone to it, just like we are. This is all the more reason for us to parent our children with grace.
