What to Expect
The experience of healing from within
on a homeopathic remedy is very different from taking a pharmacological
drug. It is natural, subtle, gentle, and profound.
Recall how it feels when you have cut or bruised yourself and it heals over the course of a week. Try to describe the experience. It is difficult, no? Perhaps you find yourself thinking that the pain and discomfort just gradually lessened, and you found yourself thinking less and less about it. More than likely you will recall that after it heals you "forget" about it.
When true healing happens one tends to forget that there was ever a problem. This is true of homeopathic healing, since the right remedy will trigger a healing process that your own vital force carries forward. However, there is an added twist.
Often a well-prescribed, deep acting remedy will not only cause previously intractable symptoms to resolve, but there will be a sense of enlarged perspective. Whereas before treatment one may seem trapped in an impossible conflict or a catch-22 situation, after treatment one may have a greater sense of freedom and self-awareness. In other words, a sense of dis-ease is replaced by an experience of centeredness, balance, and freedom to proceed forward toward life goals.
As an example I will describe the follow-up session of a 9 year old boy I saw this morning. His parents brought him to me after he was newly diagnosed with juvenile onset diabetes. His blood sugars were out of control, and he felt himself to be completely out of control in his life. This morning he described feelings of happiness, security, and most significantly, control over his life. His first words were "I'm proud of myself. I can think my blood sugars down". And indeed, his blood sugar record shows a dramatic improvement. The newfound control over diabetes does not occur in isolation; rather it is a reflection of a much deeper healing that occurs at a level that is beyond both psyche and soma (body), but underlies both.
