We friends of homeopathy place great value on freedom and self-determination. Precisely because it gives us so much room for independence and self-sufficiency, we love this form of medicine.
We are not lemmings. We are not blind and do not follow the recommendations of conventional medicine unconditionally. We do not act out of fear.
We promote personal competence by educating people about their options for self-determination. We build self-confidence. We think and act independently.
Health and self-determination
Pause for a moment and think about the enormous independence that homeopathy offers you.
The day I write these lines is 4 July, a major holiday here in the USA. Many of us spend the day outdoors: picnicking in the park, rowing, at the beach, kayaking and playing ball on the grass.
On 4 July we celebrate our freedom and the summer.
Summer means being free outdoors and, of course, lots and lots of sunshine.
Homeopathy and sunburn
You all know how much I love the sun. The sun gives us warmth, energy and a healthy complexion. Moreover, it keeps us healthy by stimulating our bodies to produce the important vitamin D. No one can do that better than the sun.
But as with life in general, you can have too much of a good thing. My son, for example, arranged to spend a day at the beach with a friend; they wanted to go out on the boat. The friend was very sun-sensitive and applied plenty of sunscreen, but unfortunately he forgot his feet!
“Sunburn” is not an adequate word for what happened to the friend afterwards. My son said his friend’s feet became blazing red and almost doubled in size! The relentless sun had mercilessly roasted those poor feet.
Emergency remedy Cantharis
Fortunately my son was nearby! He gave his friend Cantharis 30 (for more information on dosage and potency see here: D- or C-potency: that is the question), one of the best acute remedies for burns. Cantharis reduced the swelling and quickly healed the sunburn and the friend got through his little oversight without further complications.
Now that’s independence! The two lads were able to treat the sunburn themselves without having to resort to conventional medications.
In rare cases, however, the sun can cause more damage than we think. At first we may not even realise we have sunstroke. We feel great… perfectly fine… until suddenly the big bang comes. Sunstroke strikes!
Symptoms include nausea, chills and headache. Often sunstroke is accompanied by a severe, bright red skin rash. Fortunately that is no reason to despair, because thanks to homeopathy we can treat ourselves quickly and independently. All we need is a well-stocked homeopathic medicine cabinet.
Belladonna for sunstroke
Belladonna 30 is indicated for a sudden and rapid onset sunstroke with bright red rash and headache. For severe symptoms, at the beginning – in the first hour – Belladonna 30 may be taken every 15 minutes, before reducing to as-needed dosing every 2 to 6 hours and then tapering off. The stronger the symptoms subside, the less frequently the homeopathic remedy should be taken. Increase the intervals between doses until a clear improvement occurs. That is the moment to stop the remedy entirely.
Remain self-sufficient
See? We do not have to give up our self-determination and allow it to get so bad that we have to call an ambulance. We are independent. All we need is knowledge and the right tools to apply that knowledge reliably. That includes a comprehensive homeopathic medicine cabinet that will reliably support us in an emergency. Use this opportunity to help others and spread the knowledge. My son managed it too! If you see someone in trouble and in need of help, act and assist with a well-chosen homeopathic remedy! Your ‘patient’ will thank you and will probably become a great fan of homeopathy themselves. It’s a win–win situation for everyone involved.
If the infrastructure of our health and care services fails, you can always fall back on your homeopathic knowledge. Serious health problems can occur anywhere and at any time; last year was unfortunately a prime example of that. Protect your independence – be prepared, even without outside help. Become the hero of your family. I will help you with that.
Warm regards,
Yours
