THE QUIET POWER OF INTUITION
Many of the tips and ideas in Hunt, Gather, Parent changed Rosy and our relationship right away. For example, when I started including Rosy in household chores and cut back on the “child-centered” activities, her behavior improved essentially overnight. She needed more connection, more responsibility and more ways to contribute.
Other parts of the book involve mind shifts or changes in my own behavior. Those took longer to have an impact on Rosy. But I was the slow one. Once I changed, she immediately followed.

Western parents have, in many ways, forgotten how to relate to children in a way that’s calm, peaceful and cooperative.
Why will ancient methods of parenting from huntergatherer families, what you coined “TEAM parenting,” work for parents everywhere?
These methods are about the parent-child relationship, which is the same around the world, especially when children are young. The TEAM [Togetherness, Encouragement, Autonomy and Minimal interference] parenting method is a way of relating to children that’s independent of the surroundings or environment.
For example, in Tanzania, a 5-year-old girl learns to cooperate by helping her mom gather baobab pods or carrying a jug of water back from the river. In San Francisco, Rosy is learning to cooperate and be helpful in the same way by being included in household chores. She rinses dishes, scrambles the eggs, carries a small bag of groceries to the car at the supermarket. The details are different from place to place, but the concept is the same.

The Quiet Power of Intuition
by Marlaina Donato
Albert Einstein considered knowledge secondary to intuition and inspiration, and modern visionaries like Steve Jobs, Oprah Winfrey and Steven Spielberg have all endorsed the practical magic of gut feelings. The rest of us that have had that unexpected hunch to take a chance in business or get off the highway via a different exit than we first planned are in good company.
Intuition—once a key factor in our ancestors’ ability to survive and later reduced to a New Age curiosity—is now a subject of research in the military, which has renamed it “sensemaking”. Beneath the clatter of modern living, the quiet voice within each of us is alive and well, an often-ignored superpower. Intuition gives us the opportunity to leave the comfortable shore of left-brain reasoning to dive into immediate somatic response. This sixth sense in our everyday toolbox can enable us to not only endure, but prosper.
Research has shown that believing in the value of intuition and trusting gut feelings in business pays off. In the 1970s, parapsychologist Douglas Dean and John Mihalasky, an engineering professor at the New Jersey Institute of Technology, tested 385 American CEOs on their intuitive capacities. Eighty percent of the individuals with the highest scores had previously increased company profits twofold within five years.
Out-of-the-blue flashes of “knowing” usually come without warning and can dissolve like a flake of snow under the glare of too much analysis. This sense can also warp and prove unreliable during extreme emotional states like anger or fear. Being aware of subtleties and trusting the energetic current beneath the surface invites more accurate and fruitful results.
Cultivating internal knowing is a wise investment that can also quell frazzled nervous systems in the process. Adopting simple habits and activities can dial down the fight-or-flight stress response and make room for the inner voice. We might wonder how we know if it’s our fear or our desire talking, and the answer is simple: Listen to feelings, not thoughts. Other suggestions include:
n Meditation or meditative movement like dancing or repetitive, mindful activities like kneading bread or painting n Creative projects like scrapbooking or journaling n Spending quality time in nature n Dialing into our everyday senses n Taking a social media sabbatical for more unplugged downtime

Copper can stop a cold before it starts
By Doug Cornell
Scientists have discovered a natural way to kill germs fast.
Now thousands of people are using it against viruses and bacteria in the nose and on the skin.
Colds start when cold viruses get in your nose. Viruses multiply fast. If you don’t stop them early, they spread and cause misery.
In hundreds of studies, EPA and university researchers have confirmed that viruses and bacteria die almost instantly when touched by copper.
That’s why ancient Greeks and Egyptians used copper to purify water and heal wounds. They didn’t know about microbes, but now we do.
Scientists say the high conductance of copper disrupts the electrical balance in a microbe cell and destroys the cell in seconds.
Tests by the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) show germs die fast on copper. So some hospitals tried copper for touch surfaces like faucets and doorknobs. This cut the spread of MRSA and other illnesses by over half, and saved lives.
The strong scientific evidence gave inventor Doug Cornell an idea. When he felt a cold about to start he fashioned a smooth copper probe and rubbed it gently in his nose for 60 seconds.
“It worked!” he exclaimed. “The cold never got going. That was September 2012. I use copper in the nose every time and I have not had a single cold since then.” “We can’t make product health claims,” he said, “so I can’t say cause and effect. But we know copper is antimicrobial.” He asked relatives and friends to try it. They reported the same thing, so he patented CopperZap® and put it on the market.
Soon hundreds of people had tried it. The feedback was 99% positive if they used the copper within 3 hours after the first sign of unwanted germs, like a tickle in the nose or a scratchy throat.
Early user Mary Pickrell said, “I can’t believe how good my nose feels.”
“What a wonderful thing!” exclaimed Physician’s Assistant Julie. Another customer asked, “Is it supposed to work that fast?”
Pat McAllister, 70, received one for Christmas and called it “one of the best presents ever. This little jewel really works.”
Frequent flier Karen Gauci had been suffering after crowded flights. Though skeptical, she tried copper on travel days for 2 months. “Sixteen flights and
not a sniffle!” she exclaimed. Businesswoman Rosaleen says when people around her show signs of cold or flu, she uses copper morning and night. “It saved me last holidays,” she said. “The kids had crud going round and round, but not me.” Attorney Donna Blight tried copper for her sinus. “I am shocked!” she said. “My head cleared, no more headache, no more congestion.” A man with trouble breathing through his nose at night tried copper just before bed. “Best sleep I’ve had in years!” he said. In a lab test, technicians placed 25 million live flu viruses on a CopperZap. No viruses were found surviving soon after. Dr. Bill Keevil led one of the teams confirming the research. He placed millions of disease germs on copper. “They started to die literally as soon as they touched the surface,” he said. Some people press copper on a lip New device puts copper right right away if a warning tingle suggests where you need it. unwanted germs gathering there. The handle is curved and textured to increase contact. Copper can kill germs picked up on fingers and hands after you touch things other people have touched.
