Teaching Her Daughter to Heal

Summary

A mother shares her daughter Amelia's healing from trichotillomania (compulsive hair pulling), a nervous habit that started when she was very young, causing them to shave her hair to prevent pulling until she grew older and self-confidence became an issue. The pulling decreased over time but returned whenever Amelia got nervous, leaving the mother uncertain what to do. After starting Dr. Joe's meditations herself, the mother searched for children's meditations and found the 22-minute morning and evening meditations designed for kids. She began doing the evening meditation (prior to sleep) with Amelia every night, and within only 7 days Amelia completely stopped pulling her hair. The mother knew it worked because previously the mattress and pillow would be full of hair each morning from Amelia pulling at night without knowing it, and now there was no more hair. Months later, Amelia's hair is much fuller, she's much happier and a different kid, proving the meditation works not only for the mother but for her children too.
