These are the three ideals of homeopathic care: that healing should be rapid, gentle, and a permanent restoration of your health. This means it’s not only the complete annihilation of dis-ease throughout an entire health system, but also in the shortest, most reliable, and most advantageous way for the entirety of the person. Wow!…(Mic drop?) I love this about homeopathy. Where else will receive such high ideals in the pursuit of your highest well-being?! I’ve been meditating on these healing principles for awhile in recent weeks. These important principles are something I’m well-acquainted with after almost nearly 15 years of professional practice in the art and science of homeopathy. In certain ways, I’ve come to take it for granted. With anything in life, the more you do something, the more integrated it becomes into your everyday existence until it’s almost habitual and commonplace in one’s vernacular or being. I suppose this has been happening to me for some time. Though, I was re-awakened to it after receiving a recent training (you can never learn enough!) on an important aspect of homeopathic remedies. I was reminded of something critical that occurs everyday in clinical practice, but was hidden behind the activities of everyday life and interactions with clients. Permanent, gentle, and rapid. In homeopathy, we ardently study the seminal work by its founder, Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, called “The Organon of the Medical Art” (or “The Organon,” for short). Dr. Hahnemann first discovered some of the central tenets of homeopathy fairly accidental-like in the late 18th century. He later formulated, throughout a few more decades, the system of medicine we call homeopathy. The Organon is a series of aphorisms that lay out for us the philosophy and practice of homeopathy, as well as so much more. Aphorism 2 (6th edition) states: The highest ideal of cure is the rapid, gentle, and permanent restoration of health; that is, the lifting and annihilation of the disease in its entire extent in the shortest, most reliable, and least disadvantageous way, according to clearly realizable principles. This aphorism has been so grounded into my being that I’ve almost forgotten about it. But, this is what we do everyday for you. We homeopaths have dedicated our lives to a system of healing that does this exact thing…for you! Against many odds, against cultural norms; against familiar customs of what medicine is thought, or ought, to be; at the risk of sounding and feeling ‘weird’ to everyone we know when we decided to enter into this field, here we are. Offering a permanent, rapid, and gentle solution to whatever ails you. Isn’t that wonderful! It just caught me off-guard what we are indeed doing. I was struck by the simplicity and beauty of this medical healing art…once again. This happens from time to time. Things become so ingrained and it’s easy to forget the transcendent, extraordinary, almost miraculous work we are doing in homeopathy, every…single…day. I’ve seen things change in people in those kinds of ways. It’s breath-taking, really. And, I’ve also been a part of a healing journey that has felt less than rapid. Yet, it remains gentle, and on the way towards permanency, all the same. If you feel called to a solution where the highest ideal of healing is the permanent, rapid, and gentle restoration of your health, then look no further. These promises await you in homeopathy. You can contact me for more information, work with my wife who is also a classical homeopath, or work with any other qualified homeopath that resonates with you. You can find other board-certified homeopaths here. Thanks for reading this inspired musing about homeopathy, which caught me off-guard. Sometimes things grab at you, and you can’t help but share them with anyone who will listen. All my best, Noel Happy Summer!
Just a brief note that I will be out of the office beginning Friday, June 16, and returning on Monday, June 26. In the event you need acute care homeopathic help while I'm away, please contact Rebecca via phone: (920) 740-5048 or email: [email protected]. Please note acute care consultation rates will apply. Thanks! I'm thrilled to announce I'll be one of the featured speakers at the upcoming Joint American Homeopathic Conference (JAHC) occurring Friday-Sunday, March 24-26, 2023 in San Antonio, Texas! The title of my presentation is "Homeopathy and Mental Health in a Post-COVID World."
This is a topic near and dear to my heart and I'm excited to have an opportunity to speak about it on the JAHC stage. There is much to cover about this, but my goal is to leave you with a hopeful and encouraging message that there is help available to you or your loved one through the remarkable healing art and science of homeopathy. The COVID pandemic affected us all, to one degree or another. It seems not only did our individual lives change, but so did our local society and greater world too. Anxiety and depression are on the rise, rates of suicide (across the life span!) has increased, feelings of loneliness and desperation are abound. But it doesn't have to be this way! My presentation will be on Friday, March 24, but the whole weekend will include stellar homeopaths covering a wide range of topics that will certainly intrigue you and leave you with a vast amount of knowledge to take home. Whether you're a homeopathy enthusiast, home-prescriber, student or professional, JAHC has something for you! I hope you'll join me at JAHC 2023! Attendance can be both in-person or virtual. Register for JAHC 2023 here. I hope to see you there! Sincerely, Noel Greetings!

It's a common remark I have nowadays. Sounds almost too simple or trite to say, or even counter-productive in the practice of homeopathy. But, it has become necessary to assert. How about you? Have you felt it's not okay to have symptoms? Many others have and I felt it was important to address it. In a time when there’s great anxiety and fear about contagions, it’s important to know that symptoms and illness serve a purpose. As much as we don't like them, symptoms are not meant to be avoided at all costs. To make sense of this we have to go back to an aspect of homeopathic philosophy which states signs and symptoms are the manifestation of a vital life force that is out of balance, or is ‘mis-tuned’. Fundamental to the homeopathic understanding of health and disease relates to this natural and innate healing intelligence of the body. Symptoms aren’t meant to be suppressed. Rather, they are meant to be understood in light of the whole person, and they point to where each person needs help with their health being restored, or re-tuned. It’s unfortunately become almost unacceptable to have symptoms in recent times. Someone with a cough, sneeze, or fever for example can be looked upon as the new leper. We can’t continue like this. Illness and disease will always be a part of our reality. We can’t eradicate it completely since we live in an entire ecosystem with contagions who have their own purpose and desire for existence, as well. It’s important to keep perspective when things go awry, too. Sickness happens. Symptoms come up. In young children, the healthy maturation of their immune system and development is linked with exposure and supporting the body as it moves through an illness naturally. As homeopaths, our focus is on understanding what is happening in as much detail as possible, then choose the most well-indicated homeopathic medicine to help you. Your vital life force rules with unbounded sway over your entire organism. We just need to get it tuned back up so that your body can finds it’s own way back to optimal health. I work with many parents and families who have expressed concern about their own children getting sick in recent times. I must reaffirm, regardless of diagnosis, homeopathy will help. If it’s a well-selected homeopathic medicine, it always will. You are not a pariah if you or your children have symptoms. Simply reach out for help. That said, with kids returning back to school in-person, it is the natural and expected outcome that they will come into contact with contagions more frequently again. No matter! The following lists common ailments kids may encounter as they return back to school, of which I’m also seeing more of in recent weeks (please note this list is not exhaustive):
Those are just some of the physical ailments your kids may encounter. What about their mental and emotional state? This is where I think the most impact will be on your kids. They are being reacquainted with one another again. It may take some time and adjustment for social interactions to smooth out. Like many adults, isolation the past 18+ months has taken its toll on children too. Be mindful of how they’re feeling. Check in with them often. Take note of any changes in behavior or demeanor that seems out of the ordinary. All told there are innumerable homeopathic medicines that could be helpful for children experiencing some or all of the above. Here are some favorites that could come in handy on short notice:
This is just a small sample of homeopathic medicines that may help your kids from a mental and emotional perspective. It’s important to note that particularly when you’re dealing with symptoms on those levels to seek the help of a professional homeopath. Proper care and attention is paid to each individual and their unique circumstances and situations, and the above list is just the tip of the iceberg of remedies that could help them. Above all, this blog is intended to let you know that you’re not alone with what you’re feeling; your children aren’t alone either, and that there is help. It's okay to have symptoms. I urge you to reach out if needed. The health of your family and your local community depends on it. Sincerely, Noel |
