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. From 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.
If your family is looking to replace toxic personal care products, consider Stone and Steal Tallow products.

If you do start an Empowerment Group and you’re looking for others to join you, email us at realimmunityts@gmail.com. We’d be happy to publish your upcoming class in our newsletter.
Launching Your New Homeopathic Health Consciousness
While all of the Real Vitality courses briefly cover how to use homeopathy, the first step is to learn the basics and gain a foundation in homeopathic theory. Cilla’s Intro to Homeopathy will have you off and running in no time, by helping you to understand the basic principles of homeopathy as well as how you can get started using it at home. Cell Salts, an off-shoot of homeopathy, are easy to learn—there are only 12—yet safe and effective means of addressing common acute ailments. Many families focus on cell salts as their mainstay “medicine.”
You’ll want a few helpful books in your library, for reference purposes. Some favorites are Everybody’s Guide to Homeopathic Medicines by Danan Ullman, The Complete Homeopathy Handbook by Miranda Castro and Homeopathic Cell Salt Remedies by Nigey Lennon. Cilla’s book on HP There Is A Choice is a fabulous resource for those looking to explore HP. You can find a list of all our recommended books here.
You’ll also need a kit. Our 50 Remedy Kit contains everything you need to get you going to address the top acute ailments. It also comes with a downloadable companion guide addressing dosing and 12 common family ailments that are covered by the remedies in your kit. You will also get FREE access to our virtual Intro to Homeopathy class…It’s basically a package deal giving you everything you need to get started using homeopathy right away!

(We love loading you up with supportive resources!)
Likely the steps you choose to take won’t be in order of how they are laid out here, but regardless of where you start, if you follow these basic guidelines, you’ll be off and running, just like many of our other “Homies” already have, and you’ll have your homeopathic house in order in no time!
