The homeopathic approach to the heart of a life crisis.
Burnout, panic, depression – as homeopaths we know: the cause of an illness lies in a disturbance of the vital force. This applies equally to mental and physical ailments, and it is perhaps the most fundamental difference between the homeopathic view of health and disease and conventional medicine.
In more recent medical history, psychosomatics has recognised the interplay between body and psyche. But even these "psychosomatic illnesses" are an expression of a disturbance of the Dynamis. In the homeopathic sense they are an attempt to maintain balance and to keep suffering as far as possible from the "centre" by shifting part of the emotional suffering onto the physical plane.
