Getting Your Homeopathic House in Order

By Cell Salts, Homeopathy, Immunization, Real Immunity Film Series

So you want to bring more of a homeopathic focus to your family’s health strategy?

Spring is a great time to assess your family’s health strategy and get clear on what needs to be cleaned out and what needs to be added to the picture. When assessing the changes that you want to make in order to get your homeopathic house in order, consider these two questions: What are the big concerns? And what are the first steps?

What Are the Big Concerns?

Depending on where you are at in your health journey or health consciousness, the concerns will be different. Fear mongering has long been the go-to strategy of coercion. We have to be very careful about assessing whether or not what the media is trumping up is a valid concern. It starts with doing research and gathering the facts before we jump on the hysteria train. Form there you want to assess your family’s personal susceptibility. If you want help assessing any concerns, schedule a free 15 minute HP appointment with one of our homeopaths who can help you determine a logical plan.

Your concerns may vary depending on the ages of your children,  as well as the state of their health. Having a homeopath on your side for constitutional care is essential when you’re dealing with complex health issues. If your family is relatively healthy, you may want to just consider enrolling in an HP program. The conclusion of Issac Golden’s 20-year study on HP that included 2,342 children was that “HP remedies are non-toxic and safe – free of the side-effects or resulting damage…Golden’s comprehensive HP program had a 90.4% efficacy against epidemic childhood diseases.” The children in his study had lower incidences of both chronic and acute health issues than their counterparts as well.

Older kids considering college will have a different set of concerns. If you’ve already enrolled your kids in an HP program, you may want to consider boosting them. Consider speaking to Brion if you have adolescent-aged kids and you have questions about their immunity, boosting, or what you can do now to prepare their immune systems for college.

Disentangling From the Conventional Health Paradigm

Before one can implement new strategies, it’s important to first disentangle oneself from unhealthy habits and reliances. If your family still uses conventional medicines for dealing with cold and flu symptoms, consider learning to address these acute concerns with homeopathy. Cilla created several online courses that will support you in learning what remedies to have on hand when there are acute needs. For starters you can consider:

Healing Our Relationship with Microbes —If you’re ready to unlearn what you’ve been taught about germs, viruses and bacteria, this is the class for you! A great one for high schoolers, as it exposes the campaigns that skewed the truth about health in favor of Big Pharma and shares how homeopathy spins the “war on microbes” dogma on its head.

 

 

 

 

 

9 Flu Remedies —Learn about the 9 remedies you need to have on hand for colds and flus, as well as the symptom picture that will help guide your home prescribing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Homeopathy and Influenza — This class covers far more than just flu remedies, it provides helpful information about Influenza and offers a homeopathic understanding of the flu and how homeopathy has been used successfully during epidemics.

 

 

 

 

 

 

First Aid — It’s only a matter of time before you’ll encounter an acute issue that you’ll need to know how to address without suppressive conventional measures. This is an in-depth, two-part class that covers how to use homeopathy for bruises, wounds, pink eye, burns, UTIs, otitis, colic and teething and much more.

When Tensions Run High: A Response to the Loss of Religious Exemptions

By Cell Salts, Immunization

When rights are removed with no regard for due process, families naturally feel threatened and frightened. We are certainly living in interesting times. It‘s now more important than ever to stay focused in the present moment.

Remember the words of Dr. Debra Gambrell in The Quest for Real Immunity: “Fear is just a prayer for what we don’t want.”  The most effective way to stay out of fear is to stay anchored in the present moment, not ruminate on the possible (unpredictable) future, and envision the outcome we want to see happen. This requires focus!

In a recent week-long meditation retreat with Dr. Joe Dispenza, we learned that where we focus our attention is where our energy goes. Thoughts and emotions have a vibration. They produce hormones and wire synapses in our brain. Repetition of thoughts or emotions have the potential to manifest results on the material plane. I witnessed this over and over again during that week and also saw scientific data validating brain scans associated with certain thoughts and moods.

Effort to focus attention is never wasted. Attention equals awareness; awareness equals consciousness. And each person who expands their consciousness, then raises the consciousness of others. No one needs to convince anyone else of anything; we just need to be clear and confident and aware. All things will work together as a result. Trust me. This is real.

We also live in a material world and are the observers of cause and effect. We need to prepare to the best of our ability. What are the options?

What if I am forced to perform a medical act that may cause harm? Is there a way to mitigate such harm? What if I am in the military or immigrating an adopted child to the USA?  

Remember the cell salts that often offer us support in times of crisis, and are accessible even to those of us embarking onto the path of homeopathy. They offer a helping hand in moments of emotional turmoil, and can prepare the body in order to mitigate injuries without being swept away by the panic?

These are all answers I want to share with you. My goal is to contribute to health and vitality; to uplift and inspire; to educate and expand. The remedy to much of the insanity we are observing is to go within and find peace and steadiness. In the words of Thich Nhat Hanh, “Freedom is not given to us by anyone; we have to cultivate it ourselves. It is a daily practice… No one can prevent you from being aware of each step you take or each breath in and breath out.”

For those struggling with fear, indecision and uncertainty regarding titers and detoxing, I have created a class for you. This online class will address the health concerns parents may be experiencing and ways to deal with the current compliance required by New York and other states who outlaw religious exemptions.

“Between a Rock and a Hard Place: Get Empowered About Detox, Homeschooling, Titers, and Your Next Steps” 

The following topics are covered, and more:

  • Do alternative methods create antibodies?
  • Are antibodies the answer?
  • Is HP a “substitute” for conventional methods?
  • Can I send my child to college?
  • Where can I find a doctor who is respectful of my choices?
  • Is there “proof” that HP works?
  • What detox steps can be taken if needed?
  • What do I need to know about mitigating injuries and damage?
  • What do I need to know if I’m considering homeschooling?

Amazing Cell Salts: Homeopathic Vitamins

By Cell Salts, Homeopathy

Homeopathic cell salts, also known as Biochemical cell salts or Schüessler Salts (after their founder, Dr. William Schüessler) are thought of as the “easy” homeopathy and are certainly accessible to beginners. But even those who have used homeopathy for years have a lot to gain from the use of cell salts. In fact, cell salts are often considered “Homeopathic Vitamins,” so they can often complement your homeopathic health regimen. 

The human body, if reduced to ash would contain the following 12 cell salts discovered by Schüessler in 1873:

Calcarea fluoride
Calcarea phsophoricum
Calcarea sulphuricum
Ferrum phos
Kali muriaticum
Kali phosphoric
Kali sulphuricum
Mag phos
Natrum muriaticum
Natrum phos
Natrum sulphuricum
Silica

Cell salts are, in fact, the building blocks of life. Our cells depend on these minerals for basic functioning, and a deficiency in one or another can cause the appearance of bothersome symptoms.

Cell salts are perfect for pregnant women, nursing mothers, children and the elderly. They are known as “homeopathic vitamins” and offer the vital minerals our cells need.

An important thing to remember about cell salts is that potency matters! Cell salts are found in 3x, 6x, 9x and 12x potencies only. Also, Cell Salts are never found in “C” potencies, only “X” potencies. Potency, as well as dosing for emergencies, convalescence, and maintenance, is covered in our virtual class Cell Salts. Taking breaks while on a cell salt regimen is recommended and advice on how to do this can also be found in the class.

So what can cell salts be used for? The list is endless: Colds, flu, infections, rashes, burns, cramps, cavities, brittle hair and nails, stress, fever, dehydration, inflammation, sore throat, digestive disturbances, coughs, headaches, irritability, colic, teething, constipation, rheumatism, insomnia, heartburn, bloating, allergies, congestion, varicose veins, fatigue and so much more!

Let’s look at a couple cell salts and what they specifically address for a better understanding of how they can be used.

Calcium fluoride: This cell salt is useful in conditions where the body hasn’t “bounced back.” Postpartum, when tissues remain chronically relaxed, is an opportunity to try Calc fluor. Other times that this tissue salt may be used is for enlarged glands, prolapse, muscle weakness, hemorrhoids, and cysts. The mental/emotional picture may be that the person is a hard worker motivated by fear of poverty and the need to excel at what they do. In our Cell Salts class, we cover the facial features that can be used to help diagnose a need for this cell salt as well.

Silica: Known as the “homeopathic surgeon,” Silica helps the body to push out splinters and foreign objects that do not belong in the body. Silica is great for promoting healthy hair, skin and nails as it stimulates keratin production. When we see brittle nails, infections, constipation, and boils, Silica is indicated. The mental/emotional picture includes the inability to make decisions, need for approval from others, and stubbornness.

Yes, cell salts, like homeopathy, are completely safe for pregnancy. In fact, pregnancy offers the perfect opportunity to use cell salts, as mom and baby’s bodies go through so many changes and require nurturing and support. In Cell Salts, there is a wonderful protocol shared by Cilla that can be started in the third month of pregnancy. This protocol supports the different systems that baby is developing: Structural, neurological, blood, and mucous membranes.
