Feeling Lonely: 3 Flower Options

 Hashem put in nature small miracles in the form of flowers: three amazing flowers with the potential to help in cases of loneliness, each one with its particularities. 

Three Flowers for Loneliness: Pick Yours

All three remedies bring healing to those suffering from inner loneliness mostly due to self-centered reasons and losing the connection with others. 

Water Violet: Helps you get a warmer relationship with other people. You love being alone but often find yourself lonely.

Impatiens: For those who act and think quickly, and have no patience for what they see as the slowness of others. They often prefer to work alone. Teaches empathy and understanding of and patience with others. It is found to be fast-acting in alleviating an impatient attitude and lowering stress.

Heather: Helps when you are unhappy being alone for any length of time, you are always seeking companionship and find it necessary to discuss your affairs with others, no matter who it may be.

We'll look into each one of these Bach flowers more specifically below. 

To create Bach flower essences, several flowers (in general) are picked up by the stalk and left floating in a bowl of sunlit water for several hours. The water is then strained and prepared as a medicine. You can order "stock bottles" online or find them in some pharmacies all over. 

How to use them: take two drops from the stock bottle into a one ounce dropper bottle (add brandy or alcohol if this bottle will be used for days or weeks). This is the dosage bottle, take a few drops straight into the mouth or as needed in a little water or juice.

Diatomaceous Earth - DE - Friend or Foe?

 There's a very popular topic around here should you need a subject of conversation - that's worms, yes, of the intestinal kind (not the intellectual kind. I used to be a book worm, I guess I still am in a way).  Worms? Because they infect so many people so fast, it's important to find an alternative to the current medical solution which is basically poison to the body. For months I prayed to find one so we could get rid of these parasites, visiting my children's rectum every night (sorry for the visual).  I tried a soup recipe with all the types of food supposed to get rid of worms. Even homeopathy doesn't kill the parasites. Vermox, the medical option, works sometimes and sometimes not, but who knows what damage it does while it travels the body.  One day, I come across this post on hpathy.com, one of my favorite homeopathy reference website: "Stumbled upon this post, but I want to let anyone know who feels hopeless about parasites, especially worms.

Pellet of Mussar: The Other Song

 I think the best part of being a homeopath is to hear people's "other song". Let me explain. As I told my patients and students numerous time, part of us is Divine (we're hoping 100% of the time we're connected to that part!) and part of us, the Other Song, is less. Some people get easily angry, others are more messy, some are often sad, everybody has their "other song". When we look for a remedy (doesn't matter what the official diagnosis is), we want to address the other part of us, the unbalanced part, the one that prevents us from doing our Avodat Hashem.  Hahnemann said (the founder of homeopathy)  that a healthy state is when the "reasoning spirit who inhabits the organism can freely use this healthy instrument to reach the lofty goal of human existence" (from his book The Organon of Medicine ). We're born with this "less divine" part of us, and the job of the homeopath is to hear, identify and treat the other song so t...

Working With Other Modes of Healing

 Homeopathy is compatible with all the other modes of healing out there and I have learned not to be dogmatically for, or against, any therapy (even pharmaceuticals).  In our culture, we often need to learn to do less, and in homeopathy, less is more. Once you get in touch with your own inner healer you can customize your healing approach and cut out unnecessary interventions. Excessive biomedical and pharmaceutical treatments will gradually drain the vital force and slow down the homeopathic, vitalistic, source of healing.  A lot of people treated with a mainstream medical approach have been on various types of pharmaceuticals and it's possible that you or your child is currently taking antibiotics, steroids, stimulants, etc.  While some homeopaths will say that remedies will not work while a child is taking pharmaceuticals, if a patient is dedicated to weaning himself or his child off of them under the guidance of a healthcare professional, I will still begin homeo...
