In a world that moves fast, we’re allowed to slow down.

Less rushing. More presence. Because regulation, security, and connection begin at home.

💙 National Autism Consciousness Week 💙

Autism is not a disease and not contagious. It is a neurodevelopmental condition, and no two people on the spectrum are the same.

This week reminds us to move from awareness to action: listening, using respectful language, and creating inclusive spaces where neurodivergent individuals can thrive.

Mula kamalayan, tungo sa gawa. 🌻

Focus isn’t just about discipline or screen time. Food also plays a big role in how a child’s brain learns, remembers, and regulates emotions.

No magic “superfood”! Just consistent, nourishing choices that support growing brains every day.

Save this for your next grocery run? 👀🥚🐟🥬

Small steps count, mama. 💛

✨ Catch us this Monday on CURA: Conversations on Care, Health & Healing!

Let’s talk Building Healthy Habits That Actually Stick with evidence-based, realistic, and sustainable ways to make health work in real life and real schedules.

📅 January 12, 2026 | 7PM
📻 Radyo Katipunan 87.9 FM
with Dr. Tippy Tanchanco, Dr. Gelo Apostol, and Dr. Popo Soller

💡 Because lasting health isn’t a resolution, it’s a system.

New year goals often fail not because we don’t know what to do—but because we don’t know how to make healthy habits stick in real life. What if health in 2026 was built on evidence, structure, and sustainable change?

Join CURA: Conversations on Care, Health, and Healing this Monday, January 12, 2026 at 7PM on Radyo Katipunan 87.9 FM, with hosts Dr. Tippy Tanchanco and Dr. Gelo Apostol, featuring Dr. Joel Josef “Popo” S. Soller, MD, MBA, DPCOM, DPCLM—Occupational Medicine Consultant, Lifestyle Medicine Specialist, and Assistant Professor at the Ateneo School of Medicine and Public Health.

A distinguished Diplomate of the Philippine College of Lifestyle Medicine, Dr. Soller works at the intersection of medicine, behavior change, and workplace wellness. He designs and leads evidence-based programs that help individuals and organizations improve movement, nutrition, stress management, weight, and long-term health—without extremes or burnout.

💡 Start 2026 with practical strategies that work in real workplaces, real schedules, and real lives.

Screens are part of modern parenting. But without boundaries, they can affect sleep, language, attention, and emotional regulation.

The goal isn’t zero screens… it’s guided, intentional use. Co-viewing, choosing quality content, and setting simple limits can already protect developing brains. 🧠💛

Small boundaries = big benefits.

Not all kids with autism will benefit from leucovorin (folinic acid) but for some, especially those with folate transport issues, it can make a meaningful difference 💛✨

This post breaks it down in a simple, parent-friendly way: who may benefit, who might not, and why folate matters for the brain.

Always talk to your child’s pediatrician or dev ped before starting anything new. One informed step at a time, mama and papa. 💛🌱

Happy New Year! 💛✨
