Taking Your Own Child's Case

Questions to Find Your Child's Remedy Questions Relating to the Emotional  Part of homeopathy is the intuitive process: a parent imagining how his child feels can help choose the right remedy more quickly.  Some questions to ask while you're imagining your child: - Describe what is happening in his/her body - How does this affect him/her? - How does it feel like? - What comes to mind when she feels it, what does this remind you of ? - Describe the feeling (heavy, light, pain, tense, etc.) more, what does (tense) mean? - Do you have a gesture to describe it? - What is the opposite of that feeling? - What makes your child happiest? How does happy feel like in the body? What does this remind you of? - What is most stressful? What does it feel like in the body? Is there pain? What does it feel like? What happens next? - Imagine the child moving: how does it look or feel while moving? What does it remind you of? - Imagine the child under social stress - how does it feel under stress

Hyperactive Children

 This post is an extract from one of my favorite books on homeopathy: Healing Complex Children with Homeopathy, by Angelica Lemke. You can buy this book from my office: 08-858-9518 (Israel only) Hyperactive Children Hyperactive children are full of energy and on the go. Some are in a high adrenaline state, some are uncomfortable in their body due to pain or discomfort, some have a natural vitality which leads to high energy, and some are hyperactive due to nervous system inflammation.  For those children who are naturally vital and energetic we simply need to adjust to their high levels of energy. But some children who are hyperactive are having an overly strong energy output or release that is detrimental to their growth and cognitive development. Children on ADHD medications can be difficult to treat with homeopathy unless the parents are dedicated to eventually stopping those medications. Our current culture with high media consumption and electronic games can exacerbate hyperactivi

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 homeopathic treatmen

Fever - Friend

 Fevers should ideally be supported and not suppressed, in fact there's a proven correlation between autism diagnosis and the use of acetaminophen for inflammation and fevers. Anti-febrile medications are often suggested out of fear that if a fever spikes too high and too quick, it will cause a seizure and subsequent brain damage. This is a rare outcome and there are homeopathic remedies to help prevent this.  Ideally we want to let a fever run its course while giving electrolytes, keeping the body comfortable with cool drinks, taking sponge bath, optimizing rest, and ingesting broths and soups. If a fever is causing discomfort and spikes too high, dose a remedy in 30C potency once every 1-3 hours until the fever subsides. Some remedies well know for fevers include: Aconite: After sudden onset of a fever, especially if after exposure to cold or wind; with fever there's anxiety, restlessness, palpitations and thirst. Pupils might be contracted.  Arsenicum:  Prolonged chilly phas

Pregnancy Remedies Series: Morning Sickness

I'm starting a new round of Pregnancy Class with Homeopathy and I thought about sharing with you the highlights of the class, the main remedies and how and when to take them.  Introduction First of all, we discussed how safe and smart taking homeopathy during pregnancy is.  1) You don't have all the side-effects of the "regular" medicines, who are not even considered most times by doctors for pregnant women because of the possible consequences on the baby (Deformities, lo aleinu, etc.) 2) You prevent a lot of problems inherited from the parents to the child. Children who were treated (in utero or otherwise) with homeopathy are simply healthier. 3) The mother has an easier time giving birth, as Dr. Borland states in his book Homeopathy for Mothers and Infants: “It is an experience common to homeopaths everywhere that their patients do not suffer from difficult labor. That does not prove anything but it’s a fortunate fact for the patients." Then we moved on to the
