"Rhodiola is like a built-in stress shield for the brain. It helps calm that chaos, sharpen focus, and smooth out emotional roller coasters." "In just one week, people taking Rhodiola felt less stressed, more focused, and mentally sharper." "Rhodiola was compared to the antidepressant sertraline, also known as Zoloft. While sertraline had stronger effects, Rhodiola had fewer side effects and was better tolerated." "Research shows Rhodiola may enhance memory and learning by helping neurons in the brain communicate better." "OPCs are antioxidants found in blueberries, grapes, and dark chocolate, and they help protect the brain while strengthening the blood-brain barrier." "One study found that drinking blueberry juice, which is rich in OPC flavanols, for 12 weeks improved working memory, blood flow to the brain, and cognitive performance in adults." "Ginkgo and ginseng act like stimulants without the side effects, and studies show they may help improve attention and dopamine levels in kids with ADHD." "Herbs are powerful, even though they're natural. They can interact with medications, so always consult a professional." "There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Functional lab testing can help determine which nutrients and herbs your child actually needs."

  • 155: Can Horses Help ADHD Kids? with Caz Pringle-Bowden
    Apr 24 2025
    Could working with animals be the key to helping children with ADHD regulate their emotions and build confidence? In this episode of The Soaring Child, host Dana Kay explores the transformative world of equine-assisted therapy. She’s joined by Caz Pringle-Bowden, a yoga facilitator, counselor, and equine therapy expert who has worked with hundreds of neurodivergent children. Caz shares how horses offer a unique form of emotional and nervous system regulation, helping children develop focus, self-awareness, and trust in ways that traditional therapies often cannot. Beyond the horse paddock, Caz also teaches yoga and boxing to youth in juvenile detention and designs neurodiversity training for educators. As a neurodivergent woman herself, she brings a deeply personal perspective to her work. In this conversation, she explains why horses have a profound impact on children with ADHD, how parents can incorporate similar strategies at home, and why rethinking the narrative around ADHD is essential for supporting neurodivergent kids. Links Mentioned in the Show: ADHD Fast Class - https://bit.ly/3GAbFQl Key Takeaways: [3:57] What is Equine-Assisted Therapy? [4:21] The Science Behind Horses and the Nervous System [6:54] How Equine Therapy Helps Kids with ADHD [5:22] The Power of Changing the Narrative for Neurodivergent Kids [20:22] Real-Life Success Stories from Equine Therapy [34:08] How Parents Can Apply These Lessons at Home Memorable Moments: "Horses are not tools to be used. They have thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and experiences, and another system just like ours." "It is an absolutely powerful and helpful alternative to clinical interventions that works for people that may not be able to sit down in a chair and talk to someone." "They can hear a heartbeat from up to 10 meters away. So, heart rate variability—if we are excited or nervous, they're going to hear that." "You cannot lie to a horse." "By working with a horse, we're actually working with new stories, new stories of hope, resilience, and capacity to counteract those negative stories that that child might have heard." "When someone is regulated and they're okay, the horse gives trust, and when a horse gives trust, it is real—very, very real." "It's just 10% of the time that the teachers see it, and they judge me for it. And they only know that 10% of me. They know 10%. They don't know the other 90. They're not even interested." "If we think—if we have the thought in our head—that our kid is trying all the time to regulate themselves, and they don't know how… they are trying."

"I was absolutely desperate for that magic pill. I’m not going to sugarcoat it—I wanted something that was going to fix our home." "You can’t supplement your way out of a poor diet, but supplementation, especially when paired with other natural strategies, can help kiddos with ADHD thrive." "Zembrin is a powerful plant extract from a South African succulent that’s been clinically studied, patented, and tested for cognitive support and stress reduction." "Studies show that Zembrin significantly improved cognitive flexibility—helping kids shift between tasks, adapt to new situations, and focus more easily." "Imagine your child actually remembering to pack their school bag without reminding them five times or starting their homework without a meltdown—that’s executive function." "Zembrin has been shown to reduce stress and improve mood in clinical studies, helping kids who become easily overwhelmed or struggle with emotional regulation." "Most probiotics don’t survive digestion, but Pro Essentials does—it actually reseeds the gut, strengthening the gut-brain connection for better ADHD symptom management." "Some parents are seeing equal efficacy to prescription ADHD medications with Pro Essentials, which combines Zembrin, spore-forming probiotics, and saffron extract." "The more this podcast gets shared and the more reviews we get, the more we spread the word to families that there are natural alternatives out there."

Everyone with an ADHD child needs to listen to this!

This is the first podcast I have found that is easy to listen to, calming positive energy, gives tons of information that I can incorporate into our lives now. We have already made many of the changes that Dana Kay suggests and have seen such an improvement in our son. I am looking forward to each and every episode she does because there are endless ways to help our children thrive in life!
