(Joe Martino) The potential downsides of lockdowns during pandemics have been explored quite a bit – and the truth is the scientific community is quite divided on whether it’s the right move. On one hand a case can be made for effectiveness of lockdowns, but at quite a cost, while on the other hand many have shown lockdowns to be ineffective in slowing spread. How a study is organized and conducted can also dramatically change results.

Interestingly a study in Nature showed that “less disruptive and costly NPIs can be as effective as more intrusive, drastic, ones (for example, a national lockdown).” This essentially states that governments could choose effective ways to mitigate virus spread effectively without inducing unwanted and long term side effects on society as a whole via lockdowns – regardless, lockdowns are still widely being used.
One question we might have is, what about factors that are not so easy to measure right away? Things like long term psychological damage of being constantly stressed, out of touch with community and friends, and confined to our homes. What affects are children experiencing in their development and learning? We may not know exactly for quite some time.
I felt inspired to speak to a mother who has not only be asking this question with regards to her child, but who has decided to do something to push back against government measures, like lockdowns, that many citizens and scientist don’t agree with.
Along with another activist, Stephanie Sibbio created a movement called 100 Million Moms who, as their Instagram states, are a rights-based movement empowering moms all over the world to stand up against injustice. We advocate for natural health & medical freedom.
I spoke to Stephanie about how she has seen lockdowns affecting children, and her story in co-creating 100 Million Moms. In this discussion you will learn how you can get involved as well.

Further Discussion
A large meta analysis on mask wearing has shown that children are having physiological issues and learning challenges with prolonged mask wearing.
A group of doctors did a panel worth considering that discusses the potential harms of lockdowns and the science that supports the idea.

About The Author
It’s funny, I have a tough time calling myself a ‘journalist,’ perhaps it’s just one of the hats I wear. Deep down I get a lot out of connecting our individual and collective narratives to world events. Why do we create the world the way it is? What does that tell us about how we can change our world? I founded CE in 2009 as I love inspiring people to make lasting shifts in their individual consciousness, which sets conditions for deep meaningful change in our world. Part of that story though, is looking at current events and asking big questions, which is where that ‘journalist’ hat comes in. I’ve been inspired to set forth a new style of media, something you might call ‘transformative media’ or ‘conscious media.’ It’s media that tells stories without polarity and division. That digs to the ‘truth’ and isn’t afraid to look, and that helps viewers make change in their lives as a result of what they see. It keeps in mine physiological regulation and how difficult it can be for people to change their beliefs as well. I believe humans can make meaningful changes in themselves and in our world faster than we give ourselves credit for, and believe it’s a holistic effort to make this happen. Oh, I like living in nature, ave 3 cats and 3 alpacas. I experience my life with 1 female human as well.
Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.
