Homeopathic Narratives: How Nature Heals

N65: Trauma and Homeopathy

Homeopathy is an amazing system of medicine to help a person overcome trauma.  Trauma can be experienced as deep as the DNA or the constitutional remedy that is running the individual at the time of the acute, or the constitutional remedy as source. Trauma is not one experience fits all, but rather a very specific experience for each individual depending on their own constitutions. The discussion on trauma is a very extensive one and we will be looking at trauma experienced from pregnancy, birth, grief and post war or conflict. When looking for remedies for difficulties on the mental emotional levels of existence, homeopathy is an excellent choice as it has much success on these levels.

N64: Babies and Homeopathy

This is the first time we begin looking at what is making babies sick today.  There is a rise in sudden deaths and in baby and childhood dis-eases.  Childrenshealthdefense.org is a great place to begin working through how to help babies stay healthy and thrive in today's world.  Using homeopathy helps the baby develop when breastfeeding is not possible.  If there are breastfeeding problems or it is stopped before the immune system kicks in at age 5 or 6 then homeopathic remedies are needed sometimes to ensure the different parts of the growth systems are working well together. Sometimes traumas have impacts that need to be addressed while the baby is still young and before childhood.  Two books written that I use frequently will be shared with you.  Didier is a medical doctor and his advice is priceless.  He has a very deep understanding of what happens between the mother and child during and after the baby is born. His book stands out from the crowd. Farokh also has a deep understanding of children and babies as well.
There are two books I would recommend for this topic:
Grandgeorge, D. The Homeopathy Handbook for Children, Acutes and their Homeopathic Treatment, Narayana Publishers, 2012
Master, Farokh, J. Clinical Observations of Children’s Remedies, Third Expanded Edition, Lutra, 2006

N63: Rubrics in Homeopathy

Rubrics are the basis of choosing a remedy.  A rubric in homeopathy is a name we give to symptoms that are expressed by the person needing the remedy.  We use repertories and Materia Medica to list the rubrics and the remedies.  The remedy pictures of animal, mineral and plant remedies are in a Materia Medica, while the specific rubrics and the remedies that have the rubrics are in a Repertory.  There are paper versions and software programs that give you these, and I suggest always having at least one of each in paper format.

N62: A Discussion on Aging and the Role Homeopathy Can Play

Aging is something that naturally happens as we get older, finish our life’s purpose and physically give our bodies up.  To slow down aging, we need to keep our bodies flexible physically, mentally and emotionally.  Once we keep our flexibility, keep our capacity to heal ourselves and keep our memory and brain power energy at a high level, we are in fact slowing down aging. The RNA heals the DNA and homeopathy heals the RNA. The Body uses homeopathic remedies to slow down aging as it has ways of slowing down the physical processes we see in greying, wrinkling and becoming fixed in our ways.

N61: Not the Last Conversation on Diarrhea and Homeopathy

Homeopathic Remedies for Diarrhea should be chosen according to homeopathic principles, looking at the provings information, the information from poisoning caused by the poisonous chemical nature of non-homeopathic remedies to better understand how the substance will work when used in a succussed, diluted, and homeopathically prepared resonance medicine.  Diarrhea can be something that includes other symptoms that are time-sensitive symptoms like bleeding ulcers and therefore will need well-indicated remedies.  To choose a good remedy one should use source words, affinities of remedies to certain parts of the body, knowledge of provings, materia medica and repertorization, among others.  Looking at gamboge, hydrochloric acid and gelsemium, we see similarities that will need an understanding of the rare and peculiar of each remedy to differentiate it in a case where diarrhea is the chief complaint. We also look at some other ways such as concomitants that point to one remedy over another.  Diarrhea as important as it is always goes together with the mental emotional symptoms that must also be included in the totality of symptoms used to find a remedy.

N60: Cure by Similar Disease - Nature and Homeopathy Agree

Cure by similar disease and two dissimilar diseases cannot exist at the same time are two topics that are very important to understand when looking at choosing a remedy for the patient.  Nature cures through similar disease by giving childhood diseases that can fix many of the problems in the different systems and help the person adapt to their environment and its poisons and changes.  Homeopathy agrees with Nature in that it will use an artificial dis-ease as seen in the signs and symptoms of substances on Earth used in Homeopathic infinitesimal dilutions on the nanoparticle level.  The signs and symptoms of the disease of the individual is the same as what the remedy or natural disease could engender in a healthy individual.  Aphorisms 19-22 discuss this nature of medicines.  The perspective of individuals is what limits our scientific understanding, and the less healthy you are the harder it is to see your perspective and those of others; sometimes even causing people to declare something a scientific fact and then say science has changed its understanding and the facts have changed with it.  A fact that changes was never a fact to begin with.

N59: Types of Homeopathy - A Conversation

Although there seem to be many different kinds of homeopathy, a homeopath should always follow the basic laws of homeopathy as explained in the Organon of the Medical Art, the book written by the founder of Homeopathy, Samuel Hahnemann.  The laws of homeopathy come from the laws of nature and need to be adhered to.  The laws of cure as well as the medicines that make up a homeopathic prescription are also defined.  What is not, is the methodology of how to take a patient’s case, reach the Similimum, and how to understand the case and prescribe the remedy accordingly. Some homeopaths are purist by nature and keep to only a set amount of remedies, others use any substance on Earth as a possible remedy choice.  What is not homeopathic, is something that defies the laws of homeopathy and is allopathic in both its thinking as well as prescribing. A homeopathic remedy should not have an impact on the individual like a molecular poison would.  The Earth heals homeopathic, and if we keep its meaning – safe suffering- then as long as we are using a similar substance to heal a similar set of symptoms that substance can create, and we do not inject it, we are healing and helping the body heal itself.  Earth heals through ingesting substances through the orifices of the body, not by injecting. When we do experience injections through stings, bites and punctures, the body is impacted and as a result can cause disease pictures.  Injecting a substance will eventually cause a disease picture and even a syndrome.

N58: Doing Nothing is Not Natural

Some people are so brainwashed or ignorant that they believe that if you choose not to use conventional medicine or post-modern medicine, you are doing things naturally.  The absence of a poison does not mean that you should not look to nature to use what nature gives you to then do something naturally.  It is natural for all living things on Earth to use Earth’s systems to keep healthy, like the water wild animals drink.  Humans have left the natural path and use chemicals in their food, food sources, water and air, and as a result, doing nothing, not using natural systems of medicines from nature, does not mean you are doing it naturally! Doing nothing in our world today does not mean you are doing it naturally, and as a result using natural systems of medicine that have been used for more generations is helping you do it naturally.

N57: How Much of a Homeopathic Remedy is Enough?

Something patients and homeopaths alike ask themselves is how much of the remedy is enough.  It really comes down to how much good of a remedy you have chosen and whether it is a first aid, acute, acute exacerbation of the chronic state, or is it a chronic state. In the Organon the chapter on The Power of Medicines to Cure aphorisms 19, 20 and 21 cover what needs to be cured, and when what needs to be cured has been read by the body has the body’s condition as seen in signs and symptoms has changed, then it is enough remedy.  The remedy is a code to active the body’s response and the remedy has been prescribed to a successful amount when the body has read it and the condition of the body has improved or changed.  The remedy is a code not a material substance that impacts the body.  The code is read and the body has its own system of curing and its own way of impacting the condition of the individual.  We can, therefore, only determine if it is enough by looking at the individual’s response to the remedy.

N56: Diarrhea with Cramps, Continuing the Conversation. Part 3

In this episode we will look at remedies for diarrhea that is combined with cramps, and then remembering to look at all remedies with an eye on concomitants, that is, other rubrics or symptoms that come at the same time as the main issue.  We will cover 7 remedies with keynotes of diarrhea.  It is important when looking at life-threatening events in the body to ensure the patient is aware of a possible need for a medical diagnosis if the problem is chronic or intense.  If there is a need for surgery, the remedy may take too long to fix it. As a result, the remedy is needed, but the patient may need to make sure their has been no structural change that may be life-threatening.  An ultrasound would be such a tool. When there is pain and cramps and the remedy that is well-indicated does not hold it would be a good idea to have a diagnosis to make sure it is not an acute exacerbation of the chronic state that has been developing over years.
