What’s in My Kit: Apis mellifica

This is the fifth episode in a series highlighting homeopathic remedies I carry with me all the time. There are almost 50, so it will take a while to complete! Oh no! You've been stung by a bee, bitten by a mosquito, or attacked by evil pollen - what do you do? When there's puffy swelling, redness, and pain, practical homeopaths reach with confidence for our bottle of Apis mellifica, and we tend to keep it around in both 200c and 1M potencies....

A Chicken Story

Please forgive this interruption to the "Everyday Remedies" series, but I needed to share this story with you! My office window overlooks the pasture that borders the creek that borders a hayfield that borders the highway. I hear a lot of things outside that window, from distant dog and cow calls (to which our dogs must always respond, it seems) to sirens signaling a response from our nearby VFD, to bird calls and chicken clucks....

What’s in My Kit: Antimonium crudum

This is the fourth episode in a series highlighting homeopathic remedies I carry with me all the time. There are almost 50, so it will take a while to complete! When something weird shows up on your skin, it's often an indication that your body is trying to eradicate something from under the surface. Not always, but often. That's why something you eat can cause a rash, or stress can cause hives....

What’s in My Kit: Ambrosia

This is the third episode in a series highlighting homeopathic remedies I carry with me all the time. There are almost 50, so it will take a while to complete! It seems that there is no time of year that's safe from the possibility of a runny nose - at least not here in the great state of Kentucky! That's reason enough for me to carry homeopathic Ambrosia with me everywhere....

I don't know about you, but the last two weeks have been shocking for me. The shock of hearing about an assassination - first framed as an attempt and then the news of its "success," then the video footage, then dismay at how so many responded to it, along with continuous news of fights and fears at home and abroad (no matter how much one tries to avoid such news) have made life feel very precarious....

Well, as luck would have it, just a couple of months after posting about how to treat poison ivy homeopathically, I got a case of poison ivy myself! Of course I made a video to show how wonderful homeopathy is when it comes to addressing health issues in real time. Let me just say, this was no ordinary case of "oops, I brushed against some poison ivy as I was hiking" - this was me on my mower, clearing underbrush from the edges of not one but two properties, basically creating poison ivy confetti and giving myself a dust bath in it....
