The following homeopathic indications may be considered for children dealing with the effects of excessive screen time:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><em><u> Stramonium<\/u><\/em>: This remedy may be helpful for children experiencing nightmares or sleep disturbances due to excessive screen time exposure. It can also be used when children exhibit heightened anxiety or fearfulness as a result of their screen-related experiences.<\/li>\n<li><em><u>Calcarea carbonica<\/u><\/em>: This remedy is indicated for children who become physically sluggish and gain weight due to sedentary screen time habits. It may also benefit those who experience digestive issues or recurrent colds associated with excessive screen use.<\/li>\n<li><em><u>Cina<\/u><\/em>: When children display irritability, aggression, or difficulty in controlling impulses linked to excessive screen time, Cina can be considered. This remedy may help balance emotions and reduce behavioral challenges associated with digital overexposure.<\/li>\n<li><em><u>Nux vomica<\/u><\/em>: This remedy is suitable for children who develop a habit of excessive screen time and subsequently experience restlessness, sleep disturbances, and difficulty concentrating. Nux vomica may support their ability to establish healthier screen usage patterns.<\/li>\n<li>Lycopodium: For children who experience impaired cognitive function and reduced self-confidence due to excessive screen time, Lycopodium may provide support. It is often indicated for memory issues, lack of focus, and difficulties with comprehension or mental clarity.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Conclusion:<br \/>\nWhile technology has become an integral part of children&#8217;s lives, excessive screen time can have detrimental effects on their physical, cognitive, and emotional well-being. However, it&#8217;s important to note that homeopathic indications mentioned above are not substitutes for healthy screen time management practices or professional medical advice. Limiting screen time, encouraging physical activity and social interactions, and promoting a balanced lifestyle are key factors in mitigating the potential negative effects of excessive screen time on children&#8217;s development.<\/p>\n<p>References:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Gupta P,Menon P,Ramji S.
