Resie Moonen‘s ability to profoundly empathize with children in need as well as her experience and enthusiasm for homeopathy helped make her presentation at this year‘s homeopathy congress one of the highlights. In this interview she gives us a concise overview of the Lanthanides as a homeopathic remedy group and of their specific use in paediatric treatment.

Just as the Lanthanides – the “rare earths” – are hidden in the periodic table, so the people who need these remedies tend to be reticent. They are concerned with “inner strength”, which is often difficult to understand from outside. Such patients therefore display not only autoimmune disease but also specific behavioural abnormalities and learning difficulties that can indicate a need for the Lanthanides.

The individual Lanthanides are described in a succinct and graphic way, and Resie Moonen gives valuable hints on how to determine the themes of the individual Lanthanides and their salts with greater precision. Her comments provide an excellent discussion and summary of these issues for every homeopath concerned with the use of these new remedies.

In her engaging and captivating way, Resie Moonen finishes off by offering some important and heartfelt advice to young homeopaths.
