    Episode 188: Understanding Fear, Healing Patterns & Finding Calm with Dee Nicole

    In this episode of the Homeopathy247 podcast, host Mary welcomes Dee Nicole, a homeopath with a rich background in energy healing and herbalism. Together, they explore the terrifying experience of panic attacks and how homeopathy offers a gentle path toward true, deep-seated healing. The Body's Last Resort Dee describes a panic attack not just as a sudden symptom, but as the body's "last resort" to get your attention. Much like a sensitive fire alarm, the panic response signals that something underneath the surface—often a long-standing feeling of being unsafe—needs to be addressed. Common expressions of panic include: Physical sensations: Racing heart, shortness of breath, dizziness, or trembling. The Fear of Death: A firm belief that a heart attack is occurring. Freezing: Being unable to leave the house or drive over a specific bridge. The Homeopathic Approach: Peeling the Layers Homeopathy honors the fact that everyone experiences panic differently. Because of this, two people with "panic attacks" may receive entirely different remedies. Acute Management: Remedies like Aconite (for sudden fear), Gelsemium (for shaking), and Arsenicum (for a need for control) can help manage the moment. Constitutional Healing: By looking at your dreams, sleep patterns, and history, a homeopath finds a remedy that addresses the core root of the anxiety. Breaking the Pattern: Homeopathy signals the body to stop reverting to habitual fear responses, leading to longer intervals between attacks and a more present way of living. Empowering Tools for the "In-Between" Dee emphasizes the importance of self-support during the healing journey. She recommends: Conscious Breathing: Inhaling deeply and stating out loud, "I am calm, I am relaxed, I am in control". Mindset Education: Journaling or physical exercise to give anxious energy a productive place to go.

    Episode 187: Parasites, Hidden Symptoms & Homeopathy with Gitanjali Goel

    In this episode, host Mary is joined by Gitanjali Goel to discuss a topic many find uncomfortable but is surprisingly common: parasites. Gitanjali explains that parasites aren't just an "overseas" problem; many people live with low-grade infestations for years, manifesting as fatigue, bloating, skin issues, or even anxiety. The Homeopathic Perspective: Symptoms Over Tests While conventional medicine relies heavily on stool tests, Gitanjali notes that these often produce false negatives. At Homeopathy247, the focus is on your unique symptoms and "miasmatic" patterns rather than just a positive diagnosis. Understanding Miasms: Your Biological Blueprint Gitanjali uses the analogy of a house to explain miasms—inherited and acquired patterns of susceptibility: Psoric Miasm (Deficiency): Like a house with thin walls. The body lacks resources (like low stomach acid) to neutralize organisms early. Healing begins with reinforcement, not removal. Sycotic Miasm (Excess): Like blocked drains. The body can't let go, leading to stagnation (sluggish bile, fluid retention). Syphilitic Miasm (Breakdown): Like compromised structural beams. Parasites appear late as a marker of long-standing dysregulation. The Lunar Connection Parasites are highly responsive to lunar rhythms. During a Full Moon, symptoms like teeth grinding, anal itching, and insomnia often intensify as parasites become more active and migrate. Key Homeopathic Remedies Gitanjali highlights common remedies used to restore the body's balance: Cina: Indicated for teeth grinding, irritability, and continuous nose-rubbing in children. Teucrium: Think of this when rectal itching is the main complaint, often worse at night or around the full moon. Spigelia: Helpful when sharp pains or heart palpitations accompany parasitic activity.

    Episode 186: Celiac Disease, Gluten Reactions & Homeopathy with Tay Henry

    In this episode, Mary welcomes back Tay Henry, a family homeopath and nutritional therapist, to discuss the complexities of celiac disease. They explore how blending homeopathy for celiac disease with nutritional guidance can be life-changing for families dealing with autoimmune gut issues. Understanding Celiac Disease Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition where the immune system responds abnormally to gluten—the protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. Unlike a simple food intolerance, this immune response causes physical damage to the small intestine and can lead to significant gut degradation if left untreated. Common Symptoms to Watch For: Bowel Changes: Chronic diarrhea, constipation, or a mix of both. Physical Distress: Abdominal pain, intense bloating, and gas. Developmental Signs: Poor growth or nutrient deficiencies in children due to malabsorption. Systemic Issues: "Brain fog," headaches, and chronic fatigue. The Role of Homeopathy in Healing A major advantage of Homeopathy247 is that practitioners focus on the totality of symptoms rather than waiting for a formal diagnosis to provide relief. While removing gluten is essential, homeopathy supports the body's "memory" and helps the gut heal more effectively. Key Remedies Mentioned: Lycopodium: Often indicated for intense bloating and gas immediately after eating. China: Helpful for the "weak state" and fluid loss following chronic diarrhea. Mag Phos: Excellent for cramping pains that feel better with warmth or doubling over. A Plan for Long-Term Resilience Tay emphasizes that using homeopathy for celiac disease alongside a nutritional plan helps build long-term resilience. By identifying triggers through food diaries and health timelines, families can move from a state of weakness back to vibrant health.

    Episode 185: Rethinking Allergies and Autoimmune Disease with Homeopathy with Nur Reved

    In this episode of the Homeopathy247 podcast, Mary welcomes Noel Ravid, joining from the historic home of homeopathy, Berlin, Germany. Noel shares her deep research into histamine—a molecule that is both essential for our protection and a source of great distress when it overreacts. The Role of Histamine in the Body Histamine is not just a nuisance; it is a vital transmitter that acts as the body's first alert system. It protects us by: Starting the Reaction: Bursting out of cells to signal an immediate immune response. Increasing Blood Flow: Bringing vital resources to the site of a perceived threat, which often manifests as the "itchiness" or hives (urticaria) we see on the skin. Regulating Daily Functions: Affecting alertness in the brain, acidity in the gut, and response in the lungs. Why Do We Overreact? Many people today suffer from histamine overload or "overreactiveness". Noel explains that this is often due to a combination of factors: Genetic Components: Our DNA plays a significant role in how our bodies process this molecule. Environmental Factors: Modern pollution, chemicals, and pesticides (even on "fresh" supermarket produce) create a constant burden on our systems. Lifestyle Choices: Highly processed foods and a lack of connection to nature can further disrupt our natural balance. Homeopathic Histamineum vs. Antihistamines Conventional antihistamines work by blocking receptors in the body to stop the release of histamine. While this provides relief, it often leads to side effects like sleepiness because it disrupts the neurotransmitters responsible for alertness. Homeopathy247 practitioners use the remedy Histamineum differently. Instead of blocking the body, it has a "conversation" with it, reminding the body how to react appropriately. It can be used: In Acute Flares: To match symptoms of intense itching, burning, and extreme restlessness. As Organ Support: To help the body "drain" or clear a histamine overload after years of medication. Key Symptoms of Histamineum If you are considering this remedy, look for these "keynotes": Restlessness and Irritability: A fast-paced feeling where you have "no time" and must keep moving for relief. Dryness: Unlike typical hay fever, the mucous membranes (mouth, eyes) feel intensely dry. Burning Sensations: Often felt in the head, face, chest, or even during urination.

    Episode 184: Psoriasis & Homeopathy: Healing the Root Cause with Ann Lovatt

    Psoriasis is an autoimmune condition where the immune system becomes "confused" and begins attacking healthy skin cells. This triggers a chain reaction of inflammation that causes skin cells to turn over at an incredibly fast rate—sometimes over a single day rather than several weeks. Because the body cannot shed these cells quickly enough, they pile up on the surface, creating the characteristic thick, scaly, and dry patches. The Genetic and Emotional Connection Ann highlights that between 60% and 90% of people with psoriasis have a family history of the condition, suggesting a strong genetic susceptibility. However, the disease often remains dormant until a "pivotal moment" or trigger occurs. These triggers can be: Physical Trauma: Surgical incisions, tattoos, or injuries to the skin. Infections: Strep throat or other respiratory infections. Emotional Stress: Significant life traumas, grief, or suppressed anger. Ann notes that skin can act as a "thick skin" or a protective shell for people who have experienced deep emotional pain, shielding them from difficult emotions that are too painful to touch. How Homeopathy247 Differs from Conventional Medicine While mainstream medicine often uses "sledgehammer" approaches like steroid creams to suppress surface symptoms, homeopathy focuses on the mind-body connection. Individualization: Two people with psoriasis may receive completely different remedies based on their unique triggers and emotional state. Layered Healing: Ann describes healing as an onion peeling or a flower opening, where remedies address layers of suppression and detoxify the body from past medications. Patience is Key: Because psoriasis is deep-seated, healing is a slow process that requires time and a safe space to explore the root causes. Evidence and Measurement For those seeking scientific reassurance, Ann points to the Homeopathic Research Institute and specific clinical measurements used in trials. These include the PASI (Psoriasis Area and Severity Index), which scores redness, thickness, and scaling, and the Monarch score, which helps determine if the improvement was specifically caused by the homeopathic remedy rather than coincidence.

    Episode 183: How to Escape an Ulcerative Colitis Flare with Tracey Campbell

    In this episode, Mary welcomes back Tracey Campbell to discuss the complexities of gut health, specifically focusing on leaky gut and Ulcerative Colitis. Tracey shares her extensive experience working with clients—particularly those under high stress—who suffer from chronic digestive inflammation. What is Ulcerative Colitis? Tracey describes Ulcerative Colitis as having ulcers along the large intestine, including the rectum and colon. Just as mouth ulcers are painful, these internal ulcers cause significant distress as food and waste pass through the digestive tract. Common symptoms include: Severe stomach cramping. Chronic diarrhea as the body tries to "flush" the system. Inflammation, which may lead to pus or blood in the stool. Debilitating fatigue and headaches. The Root Causes: Why Does It Happen? While family history can play a role in susceptibility, Tracey highlights several environmental factors that trigger the condition: Chronic Stress: High-pressure jobs and a lack of relaxation are major contributors. Medication Overuse: Frequent use of conventional drugs can upset the gut microbiome. Poor Diet: Processed and "rubbish" foods place immense strain on the system. Leaky Gut: Increased intestinal permeability allows waste to enter areas where it shouldn't be. The Homeopathic Approach vs. Conventional Medicine Conventional medicine typically focuses on symptom suppression through medication for diarrhea or inflammation. If these flares continue, patients may eventually face surgical options. Homeopathy247 takes a different path by asking: Why is the body reacting this way?. Homeopaths look at the etiology (the starting point) of the illness whether it was a trauma, a period of intense work, or previous heavy medication. How Homeopathy Stimulates Healing: Emergency Remedies: Providing immediate support for pain and diarrhea during acute flares. Deeper Resilience: Working on a constitutional level to lengthen the gaps between flares. Body Awareness: Encouraging clients to "tune in" to their bodies and recognize early warning signs. Tracey emphasizes that homeopathy can be used alongside conventional medicine. As the body heals and becomes more resilient, the need for medication often naturally decreases.

    Episode 182: Cystitis Treatment: Why Antibiotics Fail & How to Stop the Cycle

    In this episode, Mary is joined by veteran homeopath Felicity Gray to discuss a common yet agonizing condition: cystitis. Felicity shares her personal journey from a skeptical patient to a passionate practitioner and explains why homeopathy is a game-changer for those trapped in a cycle of chronic bladder infections. The Problem with the Conventional Approach Many women find themselves in a "vicious cycle" of cystitis, where antibiotics provide temporary relief but fail to stop the infection from returning. Felicity notes that medical options are often limited to antibiotics or painkillers that don't quite hit the mark, eventually leading to a diagnosis of interstitial cystitis. Emotional Roots: "The Pissed Off" Bladder One of the most fascinating insights Felicity shares is the emotional link to the bladder. In homeopathy, the bladder is seen as a highly emotional organ. Triggers often include: Unexpressed Anger: The feeling of being "pissed off" but unable to say it. Suppression: "Putting up and shutting up" in difficult relationships. Stress and Grief: Major life changes or losses that manifest physically. Common Homeopathic Remedies for Cystitis While homeopathy is always individualized, Felicity mentions several key remedies often used for bladder support: Staphisagria: For cystitis triggered by suppressed emotions or "honeymoon cystitis" (linked to sex). Cantharis: For intense, burning, or stinging pain during urination. Sarsaparilla: Specifically for pain that is worse at the end of urination. Nat Mur: Used when there is a need to release emotional holding. The "Cystitis Queen's" Success Story Felicity recounts a powerful case of a young woman who developed severe cystitis and kidney pain following the loss of a baby. By addressing the emotional grief and the patient's "lack of voice" in an abusive relationship, the symptoms cleared. Not only did the physical pain vanish, but the patient found the strength to change her life circumstances—a true example of the totality of symptoms being addressed.

    Episode 181: Homeopathy During Pregnancy with Dr. Varsha M. Khurana

    Episode Description: In this episode, Mary is joined by the insightful Dr. Varsha M. Khurana to explore the gentle yet powerful world of homeopathy. They dive deep into how this 200-year-old modality can support women from the moment they consider conceiving through to the final stages of labor. If you've ever wondered if homeopathy is safe during pregnancy or how it can help with specific issues like morning sickness and fertility blocks, this conversation is for you. Is Homeopathy Safe During Pregnancy? The most frequent question in the community is whether homeopathy is safe for expectant mothers. Dr. Varsha emphasizes that homeopathy is perhaps the safest modality available. Because it works with the body's own energy rather than through chemical intervention, it offers a natural way to manage health without the side effects often associated with conventional medicine. First Trimester Support: Managing Morning Sickness The first few months can be a struggle for many women. Dr. Varsha discusses several remedies that can help ease the "grotty" feeling of the first trimester: Symphoricarpus: Often used as a specific remedy for morning sickness. Ipecac & Nux Vomica: Common remedies for nausea, depending on specific symptoms. The Importance of "Modalities": Dr. Varsha explains that choosing a remedy depends on the details—does vomiting make you feel better or worse? Is the nausea worse in the morning or at night? Overcoming Fertility Blocks One of the most fascinating parts of this episode is Dr. Varsha's story about a patient who struggled to conceive. Despite clear medical tests, the woman suffered from recurrent high fevers. The Breakthrough: While conventional doctors didn't see a link, Dr. Varsha used the remedy Pyrogenium to address the underlying "septic" state of the body. The Result: Once the fevers stopped, the patient conceived naturally within months. This highlights how homeopathy looks at the whole person, not just the presenting problem. The Homeopathy 247 Approach: Tailored Care Packages Dr. Varsha explains her specialized packages designed to "hand-hold" mothers through their journey: Fertility & Pre-conception: Ideally starting a few months before conception to optimize uterine health and clear emotional or physical blocks. Pregnancy Support: Ongoing care to manage "acutes" like headaches, backaches, or colds without needing ibuprofen or other drugs. Labor Preparation: Helping the body get ready for a natural and smooth birthing process.
