“Fire Child, Water Child is a breakthrough work. Children are unique and deserve an expanded and elevated approach to healing. This stunning book points toward complementary and healthy alternatives to pharmaceutical remedies.”

Fire Child, Water Child is a revolutionary guide to parenting a child with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) that does not rely on “quick fix” medications or pathologizing your child’s challenges. In his years working with children with ADHD, pediatrician Stephen Scott Cowan has discovered that when it comes to treatment, one size does not fit all kids. What helps one child focus may not benefit another. Utilizing the wisdom of Chinese medicine, he describes five distinct ways children adapt to their environment – fire, wood, earth, metal, water and presents specific ways to support each of their strengths.  Fire Child, Water Child gives parents, for the first time, access to a customized guide to reducing the stress that contributes to their child’s ADHD symptoms. Through this personalized approach, you will discover long lasting solutions that help your child become more confident and less impulsive, and in so doing master the powers of attention.
