    SWIFT: Revolutionizing Accessibility of Homeopathic Healthcare. Interview with Clare Gregory

    Today’s interview is something I have been waiting to release with a lot of excitement.  What if you were able to call a highly skilled homeopath any time of the day and night to help you alleviate an acute illness crisis?  This is not a dream, but actual reality. Our guest today will tell you all about her newest service hub SWIFT that allows you to do just that.  No more urgent care visits and sleepless nights! (I am serious about it!) Her name is Clare Gregory, a Registered Homeopath, and this is what she tells us about herself:  As far back as I can remember I’ve witnessed close family members struggle with ill health and taking conventional medicines to help, I’ve watched them having to deal with the inevitable side effects which led to them taking more medication and therefore more side effects. Believing that there is a more natural way to heal our bodies, I actively sort out alternative and complimentary therapies for my own use. I have used Reflexology, Acupuncture and Reiki to assist with my own health issues over the years before being introduced to Homeopathy which myself and my family have now used for the past 16 years.  A welcome change in personal circumstances led me to the perfect opportunity to study this wonderful subject and here I am, a Registered Homeopath, with a BSc (Hons) in Homeopathy - looking forward to helping others on their individual healing journey.   You can learn about SWIFT the homeopathic service Clare created that we will be talking about today and book your appointment at https://www.swifthomeopathyclinic.com/   Here are some topics we talked about to wet your appetite:  How do homeopaths treat acute versus chronic cases?  What should a patient know about this subject? When is Homeopathy most effective and why? For people who never experienced the benefits of Homeopathy, what is the best way to try it out?  How can one ease into Homeopathy without having to jump full on? How does Homeopathy differ from other holistic methods of healing?  Is it different from Naturopathy? What is fast prescribing?  How is it different from constitutional/ chronic prescribing?  What you should know about Homeopathy and its principles that will help you to benefit from the treatment fully. How to prepare to receive the best outcome from an appointment with a Homeopath. What is SWIFT. Why was it created it and what needs does it fulfill?          Clare’s for Homeopathy and Healthcare in the next decade.  What can we do now to improve the current state of healthcare?   Enjoy!   Now you might be wondering if homeopathy can be a answer to your health issues… and how to go about starting.  If you would like to get some help and have your questions answered, reach out via my free Hot Line.  You can schedule a call at https://bit.ly/thrivewithhomeopathy   And if you enjoyed the show, please subscribe on your favorite podcast platform and visit our YouTube channel @thriveinyourbodywithhomeopathy.  See you soon!

    Trauma Healing and Homeopathy with Lakshmi Subramaniam

    Welcome back to Thrive in Your Body with Homeopathy series where we discuss what Homeopathy can do for you and your loved one, especially if you are suffering from a chronic health condition. Today I am very much looking forward to speaking with our wonderful guest, Lakshmi Subramaniam, a medically trained classical homeopath from Mumbai, India and currently practicing in Melbourne, Australia for nearly 20 years. Lakshmi describes her own biography best. It was such a treat to speak with Homeopath whose roots go back to previous generations... I love homeopathy because my mum is a homeopathic practitioner and I’ve only used homeopathy all my life. I still remember my childhood days when I used to help mum dispense remedies in her clinic so that I could treat myself to the sweet unmedicated homeopathic pills. I moved to Melbourne with my husband in early 2000’s and felt so isolated from my family and friends in India. I missed all the festivities, the chaos, the noise, the colours, the food! I was longing for this deep connection and questioning the meaning of my life. In my teenage years my dad inspired me to look into meditation practises. I felt the time had arrived and I enrolled in Pranic healing so I could connect more with myself. This inspired me to call my business “Prana For you” as “prana” means “life energy” in traditional Indian language (Sanskrit). I’ve worked as a lecturer and clinic supervisor in homeopathy at Endeavour college of natural health and realised that I love teaching. I’m creating many short courses to support individuals and families who wish to learn more about homeopathy. My early years of practise were filled with children’s acute conditions, allergies and women’s health conditions like hormonal imbalances, thyroid disorders, recurrent uti, menstrual disorders etc. Over the last few years my practise has seen an influx of children who have been needing help with symptoms related to Autism, PANS & PANDAS, ADHD, Tantrums and Sensory processing disorder. I am constantly upgrading my trainings in homeopathy, functional pathology, and nutrition to better support my clients. I’ve loved studying with Ton Jansen, Angelica Lemke, Giovanna Franklin and many more experts. You can contact Lakshmi at https://pranaforyou.com.au/ Lakshmi is such a wonderful and diverse practitioner who msupports her clients and their families on many levels. In the interview we talk about various topics that will help you expand your understanding of Homeopathy and its potent ability to heal the human person... mentally, emotionally, and physically. Here are some highlights: We address the difference between physical and psychological trauma and the role of Homeopathy in assisting deep mental and emotional healing. Some question Lakshmi answers: How is Homeopathy helpful in healing trauma? How is it possible that little medicinal pills can help people unravel deep seated emotional and mental trauma from the past and heal? What is special and unique about Homeopathy and how it helps us heal. What is healing from the point of view of Homeopathy? How do we know that we are on the path of healing? How can other approaches to trauma, such as NLP for example, support clients in healing alongside Homeopathy? Lakshmi generously shares examples of how she helped her clients to heal from trauma.

    Homeopathic Remedies and How They Work in Light of Newest Science

    Let’s get nerdy about Homeopathy! Welcome to Thrive in Your Body with Homeopathy, the podcast that explores the powerful intersection of homeopathy and modern science. In today’s episode, we’re honored to welcome Dr. Iris Bell, MD, PhD—a distinguished researcher, medical doctor, homeopath, and holistic healer. For those who love science and are curious about how homeopathy facilitates healing, this episode is for you. Dr. Bell has dedicated over 30 years to researching holistic and integrative medicine, publishing over 150 professional papers and multiple books. Her award-winning book, Getting Whole, Getting Well: Healing Holistically from Chronic Illness, is essential reading for anyone on a journey to better health. Dr. Bell also authored two humorous and inspiring books, Chew on Things—It Helps You Think: Words of Wisdom from a Worried Canine and The Chew on Things Workbook for Fellow Worriers, both tributes to her late dog Casey, which explore coping with anxiety in a unique way. You can find her published research papers on PubMed at https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=Bell+IR. In this episode, Dr. Bell dives into the scientific foundations of homeopathy, demonstrating how recent findings in complex adaptive systems and nanoparticle science can explain this 220-year-old practice. Far from being outdated, homeopathy stands as a legitimate medical science with principles that resonate with modern research. View slides: https://drive.google.com/file/d/15hb8GmDSerIKYw2LoIgPJO-HGeebOFE_/view?usp=drive_link Today’s highlights include: The nanoparticle nature of homeopathic remedies and their unique role in stimulating the body’s healing response. The concept of “potentization”—the process of diluting and shaking substances to amplify healing properties. The fundamental principle of “like cures like,” which differentiates homeopathy from herbal medicine. These insights have the potential to reshape how we view healthcare and provide new approaches to chronic conditions that conventional medicine often fails to address. By understanding homeopathy through a modern scientific lens, we can reclaim its place as a credible and advanced medical practice.

    Menopause Can Really Be Helped with Homeopathy... What? Interview with Dr. Lisa Decandia

    Menopause is often thought of as a “sickness” or a “health condition”. Rest assured, it is not! It is a natural stage in life that can be experienced with increased levels of health and life satisfaction. Unfortunately we are often encouraged go the easy route of medicating menopause, which can lead to further health complications and difficulties. Look outside the box. With proper lifestyle, attitude and help from natural health practitioners — and yes, I meant Homeopathy :) — we can enjoy this stage of life in a beautiful and graceful way. Let’s explore how with today’s Guest, Lisa Decandia, a registered Homeopath and a professor of Homeopathy. Lisa Decandia has been practicing homeopathy for over 23 years. She currently practices in Newmarket, Canada where she treats a variety of health issues including the treatment of children and women’s health issues. Lisa is a core lecturer at the Canadian College of Homeopathic Medicine in Toronto, Canada where she teaches a range of homeopathic studies. Homeopathy is a passion for Lisa, and it brings great joy to engage homeopathic students when studying the Repertory, talking Philosophy, or analyzing a variety of Homeopathic cases. Lisa is also an international speaker and has spoken at the National Center for Homeopathy Joint Conferences and a variety of seminars within the homeopathic community. Lisa has received her Master’s Degree in Science-Homeopathy with Distinction from the University of Central Lancashire in Preston, United Kingdom. She is also a Registered BioEnergetics Intolerance Elimination Practitioner and has a special interest in working with food and environmental allergies using this technique.

As a patient you can always rest assured you will be treated as a person, not a label or disease... • Examples of Homeopathic remedies and how they helped her patients. • What can we expect from a homeopathic treatment? Can it ease menopausal symptoms completely? • When would a woman be advised to seek conventional care alongside or in place of Homeopathy when it comes to hormonal health? • The four corners of health. Homeopathy does not stand on its own. A remedy will not fully cure if there are obstacles in diet, lifestyle and other choices we are making. • Menopause is not a disease.
