Homeopathy Heals the Patient, Not the Disease

When people first become interested in natural health, they experience only a little shift in consciousness. They simply look for a natural way to resolve a problem, but they remain focussed on the problem.

For example, someone with high blood pressure or diabetes, simply looks for a natural substance to take that will help lower the blood pressure, or help the diabetes.

Whilst much healthier than the toxic alternative of drugs, this only takes a small step towards better health. The real change comes about when you understand the meaning of disease.

Ill health is the result of an inner imbalance. It doesn’t just come about. Disease doesn’t suddenly strike you down. It takes years of ignoring your body’s signals that something is wrong, before you get a disease.

This inner imbalance can be caused by many factors. Let’s look at the more common ones.

Diet is important. If you don’t ingest a large amount of fresh, raw fruit and vegetables every day, you can’t expect good health. Fast food, microwaved food, processed food, a diet high in animal protein will all ensure your health deteriorates over time.

A lack of the essential vitamin that comes from regular exposure to the sun is common today. Continue avoiding the sun at your peril! Just be mindful of midday summer sun in hot climes if you are not acclimatised. There are no fixed guidelines as this very much depends on your location, the season, the time of day of exposure, the colour of your skin (darker skins need more exposure), etc. Pill supplements don’t come anywhere close to the rich benefits of the sun.

Your outer health depends on your inner harmony. The majority of the world’s population are badly out of inner harmony. This is frequently set up in childhood, but it can also be a result of what your parents. and ancestors. passed on to you.

Traditional eastern health modalities recognise this. So does homeopathy.

The best way to explain this is to give examples. Suppose you have heart problems. As a child, you may never have been allowed to make any choices. Even your clothes were chosen by a parent. You grow up feeling very indecisive. You gathered no practice at this essential skill to life. Each time you tried, you were knocked back.

As you grew up, you had to compensate for this, and this created an inner imbalance. You were not being true to your essential nature. As a adult, you could now make choices, but old habits die hard. You are now set in a pattern.

As an adult, many instances now come your way, incidences that are similar to the original problem. They are opportunities to resolve this inner imbalance, but appear scary. So most people react against them, typically with irritability, anger, anxiety or fear. This means the problem grows over time.

Eventually, your inner being can’t support this imbalance on its own. It needs help shouldering the burden. And so it goes to your physical body - you get a disease. But it is a disease that picks up on your fundamental or inherited weakness. For one person it may be diabetes. For someone else it may be kidney problems. For another it may be neuralgia. For someone else it may be a cardiac weakness.

In homeopathy, the curative medicine will be one that restores this inner harmony. With that in balance, there is now no need for the physical disease.

Hopefully, now you can understand that there can be no one remedy for one disease. It depends entirely on the individual. So for ten different people, all suffering with kidney failure, ten different medicines are likely to be needed.

Likewise, one homeopathic medicine has the potential to cure many (if not most) physical conditions. This is because it is targeting you, not your disease.

I hope this makes sense. However, it DOES require a change in consciousness, and quite a big change. Give yourself time to get to grips with this concept. The truth is eternal. And doesn’t change. So it will wait for you.

Wild animals (living in the wild, rather than captivity) don’t have these problems. But domestic ones do. I consider this to be primarily caused by the food they are given, especially commercial pet food. But it is also because pets are influenced by us. They contract our imbalances, and so the same pathology develops in them.

By sorting out your own imbalances, you not only contribute to your own health, but that of your animals, too. And of the world as a whole. I consider that getting good homeopathic resolutions for my own health issues is my number one priority.
