    Eczema: How to Heal Your Skin From the Inside Out

    Acne: Why Your Acne Keeps Coming Back (And What to Actually Do About It)

For many people, it affects confidence, mood and mental health in a really significant way.

    Guest episode: Reiki for Stress, Burnout & Perimenopause: What Every Busy Mum Needs to Know with Louise, Reiki Master

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode I'm joined by the wonderful Louise, a Reiki master practitioner and teacher based in South Croydon, for a conversation that honestly had me nodding along the entire time. Louise's journey into Reiki is a deeply personal one. After losing both of her parents, she won a Reiki session in a competition (as you do!), and that one experience changed the entire direction of her life. She went from being a primary school teacher for nearly 15 years to becoming a fully qualified Reiki master teacher, and she hasn't looked back. We cover a lot of ground in this episode, including: What Reiki actually is (and what it definitely isn't, because there are some big misconceptions out there)Why you don't need to be spiritual or religious to benefit from itHow Louise uses Reiki to get to the ROOT CAUSE of what's going on, rather than just working on the surfaceThe most common issues she sees in women aged 35 to 55, including stress, overwhelm, and perimenopause symptomsWhy so many of us wait until we hit burnout before we ask for help (and how to stop doing that)One tiny, practical thing you can do this week to start filling up your own cupLouise also shares the most relatable Wi-Fi analogy for anyone who's ever been a little bit sceptical about energy healing, and I genuinely think it'll make you see things differently. We also get into the mental load that modern women carry, why "life begins at 40" means something completely different these days, and why giving yourself permission to rest is not a luxury. It's a necessity. Oh, and my youngest is a huge fan of Louise's sessions too (she wants to be a "Reikiologist" when she grows up, which I think we should make an official qualification). You can find Louise on Instagram at @soulaligmentwithlouise Or Book in for a Reiki session with her, here.

    Case Study: How One Remedy Cleared Years of Eczema

    Send us Fan Mail Today's case study is about a 4-year-old boy with eczema on the back of his knees, crook of his elbows, back of his neck, and top of his chest. Really bothered by itchy, sore skin. Waking at night. Miserable. If your child has eczema that won't shift no matter what creams you use, this case study will show you there's hope. In this episode, I'm sharing: Where his eczema was and how severe it was (10/10)The traumatic pregnancy and birth history that matters more than you'd thinkThe frightening incident at age 2 that triggered the eczema to appearThe one remedy I prescribed based on his whole historyWhat happened after the first prescription (severity dropped to 7/10, cleared everywhere except one area)What happened after the second prescription (now only 2/10, sleeping through the night, recovering quicker from colds)This case shows how constitutional homeopathy looks at the whole child - not just the skin symptoms. Sometimes the answer lies in addressing what happened before the eczema even started. This little boy was really bothered by his itchy, sore eczema. He's well on the way to never having to worry about it again. If your child has eczema that conventional creams aren't touching, listen to this episode.   Support the show Thank you for listening to Homeopath in Your Pocket!

    Bedwetting in Children: 5 Tips That Actually Work (Plus One Surprising Switch)

    Send us Fan Mail Bedwetting in children can be distressing and stressful for parents and children alike. If your child is "dry" during the day but continues to wet the bed at night, you're not alone - and there's a biological reason this happens. If you're exhausted from changing wet pyjamas and bedsheets multiple times a night, or your child is embarrassed about sleepovers, this episode gives you practical solutions that actually work. Today I'm sharing my top 5 tips for dealing with bedwetting - including one surprising switch that helps in up to 20% of cases! In this episode, you'll discover: Why most children can control their bladder during the day but not at night (it's all about a specific hormone)The age when children should have enough of this hormone (and what it actually does)Why scolding makes everything worse (even though it's incredibly frustrating)The practical solutions that give peace of mind for both parents and childrenWhy limiting fluid intake actually makes bedwetting WORSE (this surprises most parents!)A really simple switch that helps in 20% of bedwetting casesThe hidden source of caffeine that's aggravating the problem (it's not tea or coffee)Which supplements can helpHow homeopathic remedies support children with bedwettingHere's what most parents don't realise: children aren't doing this on purpose. Before age 2, they literally don't have enough vasopressin (the hormone that controls fluid balance at night). Most have enough by age 4, but some take longer - and that's completely normal. As children get older, they may feel embarrassed, especially if they want to go to sleepovers. For parents, broken sleep from changing wet sheets is stressful - particularly if you think "they can control it during the day, why not at night?" This episode explains the biology, busts the myths, and gives you actionable solutions you can implement tonight. No shame, no stress - just practical help for a common problem.   Support the show Thank you for listening to Homeopath in Your Pocket!

    Children's Constipation, Diarrhoea & Travel Sickness: Natural Solutions

    Send us Fan Mail As soon as you become a parent, you spend an awful lot of time discussing your child's bodily functions! Especially wee and poo. Babies' tummies are perfect for blowing raspberries, but when children have issues with their bowels, it can lead to real pain and discomfort. If your child hasn't done a poo in days, or you're dealing with yet another stomach bug, or every car journey ends with vomit - this episode is for you. Today I'm covering 3 common bowel issues in children and what to do about them naturally. These are problems every parent faces at some point, and having natural solutions ready makes all the difference. In this episode, you'll discover: The 3 F's that alleviate constipation (this method works brilliantly)Why children's constipation is completely different to adults (they're more likely to "hold on" - and I'm explaining why this becomes a vicious cycle)What conventional laxatives actually do and why you need to keep going for at least 3 months even after things improveThe best way to feed a child with diarrhoea and vomiting (little and often, starting with something simple)Why rehydration salts matter more than you think (it's not just about fluids)The Blue Kit remedy that's brilliant for food poisoningWhat actually causes travel sickness (it's all about mixed signals to the brain)Simple tricks that help prevent it (involves looking at the horizon)The remedy from the Blue Kit that's great for nauseaHere's what most parents don't realise: children's constipation creates a fear cycle. They anticipate pain, so they hold on, which makes it worse, which makes them more fearful. Breaking this cycle requires patience and consistency. All the remedies I'm mentioning are in the Blue Kit, which means you're covered whether you're at home or on holiday. Quick, safe, natural relief for tummy troubles that every family faces.
