Center of America
http://www.autismtreatmentcenter.org
This heartfelt conversation will benefit anyone who
is touched by autism. We learn about the Son-Rise program,
a totally unique treatment for children with autism.
Rather than forcing them to fit into a world they don’t
understanding, Son Rise focuses on joining autistic children
in their world, then helping them cross the bridge to
ours. This approach develops a deep relationship between
parent and child that sparks expanded possibilites for
learning and socialization. Raun inspires us to broaden
our perspective and hope for our children and empowers
parents with new options that can have immediate affect.
Understanding the influence of our belief systems, emotions,
and other environmental factors are also keys to maximizing
children's potential for recovery and well being.

Chrys Ostrander, Organizer/Activist in Eastern WA
Mark McAfee, Owner, Organic
Pastures Dairy
Detailed inquiry into the recent Raw Milk uproar in
California as Governor Schwarzenegger signed a bill that
included a new regulation for Raw Milk production. The
added Coliform standard does not appear to measure, nor
have direct correlation to, the actual safety of Raw
Milk and would be burdensome to raw milk producers, unnecessarily
threatening the availability of this natural product
to health conscious consumers. Sally Fallon helps us
understand the core issues at hand, Chyrs Ostrander explains
the flawed logic (“apples & oranges”)
of the legislation, and Mark McAfee shares his response

to survive, the requirements for business success today,
and her particular expertise with cross cultural business
development and opportunities in China. Diana
inspires us all to reach inside ourselves and engage our
human spirit and potential. This inspiring interview
expands our comprehension of what is possible when we focus
and engage our innate powers within.

Nutrition Consultant, & Founder of Brainchild Nutritionals.
Autism: Hope and Recovery though Natural Protocols
Michael is the father of two children who were diagnosed autistic,
whom through nutritional and supplemental intervention have virtually "recovered," such
that they are "mainstreamed" in public school. He is
on the "front line" of the quest for answers and solutions
for those with autism, ADD/ADHD, and other autistic spectrum
disorders.

Julie's
note: Michael
and I discuss the biochemistry of autism and detoxification impairment.
He explains a "triage" kit of supplement basics, the
benefits of magnesium for sound sensitivity, and alternative
detox protocols. Parents and practitioners should listen
to Michael to deeply comprehend the impact of Nutrition and Vitamins
on biological functioning - it is simply astounding.

Therapist/Author: The Beck Diet Solution.

Martin's
note: Dr
Beck's approach is a psychological program, NOT a "weight
loss" diet approach - it's about learning to THINK like
a thin person. She employs practiced and proven techniques from
cognitive behavioral therapy to help individuals create natural
and lasting change in DOable ways. Seeking real and sustainable
solutions from the inside, rather that through "willpower" or
fad diets is true to healthful living - we applaud and highly
recommend Dr. Beck's book.

speak with Michele about the Politics of Food; how America's
biggest food producers collude with govenment to manipulate their
messages, minimize food quality, and undermine the overall health
of our society. While "we" are starving for nourishment
and integrity, these most relied upon companies are literally
feeding off of our ignorance and inability to intervene. Michele
