The latest issue of Spektrum uses numerous case studies to illustrate the wide range of burnout syndrome and clearly shows that homoeopathy, thanks to its individualising approach, offers an adequate response to its various manifestations.
There are discernible focal points for remedy selection: on the one hand, Jonathan Hardy works with the light minerals of the second period, on the other hand heavy metals such as the Ferrum salts in Christoph Schubert's cases, or the classical Aurum used by Deborah Collins. Peter Tumminello describes the little-known remedy group of gemstones as helpful agents against depression.
Massimo Mangialavori's case reports from the interesting family of the Rutaceae point out ways out of the burnout trap for patients who constantly exceed their limits. Here a miasmatic analysis is also indicated, whether classical or according to Sankaran. The destructive character corresponds to the syphilitic miasm, which Rosina Sonnenschmidt mainly treats with snake remedies, as well as to the cancer miasm. Jürgen Hansel and Willi Neuhold present case examples of the cancrine remedies from the families Loganiaceae and Brassicaceae.
Jutta Gnaiger-Rathmanner shows, in three case descriptions of Lac humanum, Daphne mezereum and Arsenicum album, a way out of the darkness of burnout into the light.
