info_outlineHow can homeopathy help sensitive people, or is the question can sensitive people use homeopathy and are there different ways of prescribing homeopathy to people who are sensitive?
All of these points are discussed in this frank conversation with Murat Basaran who joins Mary to explain what it is that make homeopathy different and how we can work with individualised remedies to help people get the remedies they need in a potency that suits them.
Guess what. There is not one answer here - but we do our best to explain the considerations that take place when looking at finding the right remedy.
The questions we cover in this episode include:
What it means to be a 'sensitive person' from a homeopathic perspective?
- "Homeopathy is known for its individualized approach to care. How does the process of prescribing for a sensitive person differ from prescribing for someone who may not be as sensitive?"
- "One of the core ideas in homeopathy is that our bodies give us feedback after taking a remedy. How can sensitive people become more attuned to the subtle responses of their bodies after taking a homeopathic remedy?"
- "Mainstream medicine often takes a 'one-size-fits-all' approach, but homeopathy is so different. Can you help listeners understand the considerations when prescribing homeopathy?"
- "For those who are particularly sensitive, how do you begin with homeopathy? Are there special considerations that listeners should be aware of?"
- "There’s often a misconception that homeopathy is 'too gentle' to have significant effects. But sensitive people can sometimes have strong responses to even the smallest doses. What do these reactions mean?"
- "Listening deeply to one’s own body can feel unfamiliar to people used to the quick-fix model of mainstream medicine. What advice do you have for listeners who want to become better at noticing and interpreting their body’s subtle signals?"
- "If someone listening is a sensitive person and is curious about homeopathy, what would you recommend as their first steps for finding a practitioner and beginning their own healing journey?"
