Homeopathic Narratives: How Nature Heals

Homeopathy and Headaches Part 2 is a continuation of last week’s discussion.  Homeopathy and Headaches is a subject that could continue forever as any remedy can be a headache remedy.  This episode is about looking at remedies for first aid, while remembering that a sudden headache can mean something more dangerous like stroke or tumor.  As a result, despite it looking like a first aid it should b...

Welcome to Headaches and Homeopathy.  In the last few episodes, we have looked at different remedies and how to choose well indicated remedies. This narrative continues to share knowledge of remedies for patients.  In this episode we look at headaches and how to approach it homeopathically.  The remedies suggested are looked at in such a way as to help you choose a deep remedy that will work well...

A continuation of the discussion on source words in prescribing a remedy while also looking at a number of remedies. Rajan Sankaran and Divya Chhabra are both homeopathic doctors who after extensive experience in using homeopathy, came to understand and write new additions to the homeopathic understanding.  The source and the methods to reach it are what makes these two homeopathic doctors master...

Rare and peculiar prescribing can be confusing when trying to define what is rare and what is peculiar without considering yourself biased.  And how rare or peculiar can a symptom be.  Looking at physical pain, we see the body using this as a tool to improve health.  When taking a well indicated remedy, a homeopath has to choose a remedy that has the same experience of pain as the patient in front...

When prescribing a homeopathic remedy aphorisms 1, 6 and 153 are important to remember.  Prescribing as unprejudiced and open to understanding the patient and the remedy that both share a similar experience, source, rare and peculiar.  No matter whether you are looking for the characteristics of the case, the keynote, and or the source words or characteristics of the substance, in the end it must...

Whether you want it or not, the ‘side effect’ of homeopathic remedies is that the body cannot only fix the one ailment you may want taken care of. When given a remedy, whether constitutional, a proving, or a first aid remedy, the body will use it to find and correct all possible ailments that the remedy substance can find.  A homeopathic remedy is a code, and the code can be used by the automatic...

Neurological disorders are approached differently by homeopaths depending on the patient, the specific cause of the disorder and the totality of symptoms taken for the constitutional remedy.  The remedies often turn out to be homeopathic versions of those substances needed by the brain: copper (cuprum), lead (plumbum), iron (ferrum), iodine (iodinum), zinc (zincum), manganese (mangenum) and mercur...

Neurological disorders are combinations of symptoms that are artificially combined to form an allopathic picture.  The functional damage of any system is seen in the end in the organ most impacted and in this case the CNS will see the impact of MS later in an MRI. Homeopathically one needs to pay attention to the time frame, how advanced the problem has become, which allopathic medications are bei...

Neurological disorders are very specifically diagnosed in allopathic modern medicine, but in homeopathy they are specific combinations of symptoms related to the body and neural experiences such as paralysis, numbness, twitching, pain, painless etc.  The constitutional remedy is there to activate the body’s capacity to heal and not to take away a specific symptom.  Something that pops up on the ph...

Chills followed by fever is a beautiful example of one of homeopathy’s fundamental principles.  Like cures like, or the Law of Similars, is about giving your body more of what it is experiencing to illicit a response.  With fever and chills, we see the chills helping the body’s temperature drop so that the body can create a fever.  If their body is able to make a fever without the chills, the indi...

Degenerative arthritis is the same as Osteoarthritis and is at the stage where functional changes during arthritis or rheumatoid arthritis begin to take on degenerative changes. |Remember that when allopathic medicine determines a disease, they take individuals with a similar set of common symptoms and take out anything rare and peculiar.  As homeopaths we take the common symptoms out of our reper...

What is the difference between Rheumatoid Arthritis and Arthritis? Homeopathically we do not look at the symptomatic picture of the allopathic disease to determine the disease.  It is the individual disease picture expressed by the patient during case taking that determines the remedy of choice.  No matter the disease, a homeopathic constitutional remedy is always needed.  Using Roger Morrison M.D...

Allopathic diseases are combinations of symptoms that have been bunched together and are considered a disease that can be blocked or the body can be distracted with decoys. Such blockers used are the SAID’s, NSAID.s and DMARD’s.  Hydroxychloroquine is an example of such a decoy.  Thomas Cowan, M.D. discusses using food as decoys for organ specific autoimmune diseases which demonstrates the use of...

As we continue discussing how homeopathy helps the body cope with different chronic disease, it is important to stop once again and look at the concept of Vital Force and Dynamic Mistunement to remember what nature and the human body experience as dis-ease. In Hahnemann’s, Organ of the Medical Art, he discusses this important understanding of the life force in health and disease in aphorisms 9 to1...

I know you have been taught one way to look at the body and a health and that if you deviate then you are unscientific.  I am telling you that I am not alone in knowing that the body heals itself.  The way it does it is to use inflammation and fever and pain to fight and interact with things in the body.  To get rid of what it doesn’t need and is waste, and then to bring the body to a balance and...

A patient coming to see a homeopath and having a cancer diagnosis needs to be taken as an individual as in all other cases in homeopathy.  There are some very important lessons I have learnt over the last decade regarding cancer and homeopathy and I would like to share them.  Many of these understandings have been a product of learning from other homeopaths, but particularly my patients.  I would...

The continued discussion on cancer and homeopathy today is a look at the different perspectives on how to approach cancer, how to help a patient with cancer, and how different homeopaths see the chances of cure and the need for palliation.  This is a second of 3 discussions on this subject.  There are great practical uses of the 4 books I have recommended and this discussion includes a look at the...

Today we will begin a discussion on cancer and the role homeopathy can play in helping the body heal itself, and/or help with the pain and other palliative needs of those patients with a cancer diagnosis. Homeopathy can be used as a primary medicine for cancer if the patient chooses that, and also as a complementary medicine with oncology. In France, around 400 000 cancer patients were found to be...

Homeopathy is both a medical perspective, a natural way of healing, and the future of healing. And as a result, it is hunted down and destroyed to ensure that those who make profit off of our disease, can continue making human suffering a profitable commodity.  In narrative 1, I mentioned that there would be 30 narratives to show how nature heals. Now that we have seen how homeopathic remedies mad...

Children thrive when using homeopathic medicine.  You can use it before conceiving, to conceive and to help the baby develop and then the labour and after birth pain and experience can be improved with the use of homeopathic remedies.  Children are usually given mineral or plant remedies until their own immune system kicks in around age 5.  For miasmatic disease that the baby is born with there ar...

Homeopathic remedies given to people with chronic disease and who are on suppressive medications can have aggravations that last 3 to 7 days or even a little longer.  These aggravations are caused because the body is reading the homeopathic remedy and using it to learn to cure itself.  Much like a computer that brings up the corrupted files and begins healing some while quarantining others, so too...

Obstacles to cure often limits or impacts the ability of the body to heal itself with Homeopathy.  Hahnemann discusses this on pages 226 and 227 of his book, The Organon of the Medical Arts, and such obstacles can come from lifestyle, the use of allopathic medicines and other blockers that promise quick fixes with suppressions that cause disease to slowly enter the DNA.  Now with post modern medic...

Allergic reactions are about the body coming into contact with concentrated substances, sometimes made by man, and others made by nature.  Our body's are either not healthy enough to respond in proportion to the allergen, or we have been compromised by being exposed to substances not related and reacting to the combination as if they were the one problematic substance - as seen in pesticides absor...

While paying attention to what illness is and what difference homeopathy can make in helping your body stay healthy, I have included some ideas that we can do simultaneously while using nature’s healing systems.  These will be part of the narratives that focus on making the next generation healthier.  Working towards decreasing the suppressions we choose that prevent us from healing ourselves is t...

Having a natural birth is one way of ensuring that the next generation is healthier than the previous one.  This is  the beginning of a few narratives that look at ways to make the next generation healthier than us.  Many people feel lost and confused and believe that there is no hope, but there is!  There are ways of making you healthier and your offspring with Homeopathy.  What we need to do, if...
