The following remedies, used in medium to high potencies, work best for those who are familiar with homeopathy. They should be repeated every 15-30 minutes in severe situations and more infrequently as the pathology becomes less serious. There is nothing wrong with continuing the course of action for a week or even longer, as long as symptoms remain. Here is a short list of the best remedies and their indications to have committed to memory and to have on hand:
1. Bitten | Ledum | 12. Infected | Arsenicum iodatum | |
2. Bled | Vipera | 13. Inflamed | Ferrum phos | |
3. Burned | Urtica urens | 14. Lacerated | Hypericum | |
4. Bruised | Arnica montana | 15. Punctured | Ledum | |
5. Contused | Arnica montana | 16. Poisoned | Arsenicum | |
6. Dislocated | Arnica montana | 17. Suffocated | Carbo veg | |
7. Exerted | Rhus tox | 18. Shocked | Aconitum | |
8. Electrocuted | Phosphorus | 19. Stung | Ledum | |
9. Fatigued | Bioplasma | 20. Over indulged | Nux vomica | |
10. Impaled | Hypericum | 21. Slivered | Silica | |
11. Incised | Calendula |
The more serious the situation, the higher the potency needed of either Arnica or Aconitum. For example, if someone has had a concussion of severity, on the way to the hospital, a 1M potency would be advisable. Offer it every 15 minutes or more until consciousness is restored. If instead, it's only a mild head injury Arnica 30 will often do the trick when offered every 15 minutes or so. You would use a 200 potency for a moderate injury.
The less experience you have, the more important it is to stay with lower potencies such as 30c or 30x. Homeopathy is safe when and only when utilized properly.

Sunburns, like chicken wings can be mild, medium or hot! Keep the following handy as the summer progresses to keep the heat down. First and foremost, never leave for a long weekend or vacation without your homeopathy kit. If you don't own one, contact us (above)…we have a selection to fit all budgets.
My remedy of choice is to always consider Cantharis first. It's useful for all sorts of burns including scalds and chemical burns, so sunburns usually respond well. Use a potency that matches the severity of the burn. This means; the more severe the burn, the higher the potency. For mild sunburn a 6c, 12c or 30c is likely to do the trick. For a more alarming incident; that is, one with severe pain, chills, blistering, etc. and only if you have knowledge of homeopathic medicine use a 200c.
Generally speaking in acute situations, the more severe the pathology, the more frequently the remedy needs to be repeated. So if the sunburn is moderate, very red but without blistering, and you're using a 30c potency, you might offer it every 30-60 minutes to keep the pain from ensuing. In fact, use pain as your indicator as to repetition.
If after giving Cantharis, there is no improvement, consider two other remedies. Urtica urens is the remedy of choice if the pain has a prickly, stingy or itchy sensation. In fact, if the sensation is of this nature from the beginning, then start with this remedy and don't bother with Cantharis. For a deep, severe burn use Causticum. The more severe the burn, the more likely that Causticum is the correct remedy. Causticum is also handy for old burns that have taken a long time to heal. You should see a change in intensity of symptoms within 30-40 minutes of taking the correct remedy.
I also like to use cell salts as an intercurrent with higher potency remedies. So, for instance, once it's established whether Cantharis or Urtica urens is the correct remedy; then offer Kali mur 6x every 30 minutes or so to bring down the discomfort and pain. As always, when improved, stop administering. Topical ointments or tinctures can also be soothing. Try coconut oil, aloe vera gel or Calendula tincture. But to be honest, you'll likely find the homeopathic remedy to be enough. The entire picture is resolve with the remedies, pain is just the indicator. Peeling may still ensue but not as severely. A sunburn isn't a day at the beach. But don't worry, homeopathy, as always, has the solution.

These homemade candies are quick, nutrient dense and kid pleasers. They have the toothsome resistance to the bite that makes them comparable to a high quality chocolate bar. But they’re what we want our family to eat. They stay fresh for months in a sealed container in the refrigerator….but if your family knows where they are, they won’t last that long! Very satisfying.
2 cups raw, unpasteurized, almonds, walnuts or pecans
1/5 cup almond flour, sometimes called almond powder
1 cup Green Pasture coconut oil
¼ cup organic raw coco powder or nibs
1-2 cups raisins, goji berries, or any dried fruit as the sweetener or
1 cup raw honey as alternative to dried fruit
1cup unsweetened dried coconut
Pinch Celtic salt
Teaspoon vanilla
Place nuts (one kind or another) in a large bowl. Fill with water up to about 4 inches over the nuts and let sit on counter for 24 hours. Soaking nuts allows the germination process to begin which in turn adds higher nutritional value and better digestion.
After having soaked, drain the nuts thoroughly and place on cookie sheets so that they’re laying one layer thick only. Usually 2-3 trays suffice. Put the nuts in an oven set at 120 degrees for 24 hours or until crispy. Sometimes this process takes hours longer; sometimes shorter. A dehydrator will do the same if your oven doesn’t have low settings.
In a food processor, grind the nuts to their finest level. The less oily the nut; the more powdery the results which makes for a finer candy bar texture. Almonds grind to a lovely powdery consistency.
Leave the ground nuts in the food processor, add remaining ingredients and grind everything together. Taste for flavor. More raisins or honey for a sweeter candy, more coco powder for a more intense chocolate taste.
With your fingers, scoop up walnut sized amounts and form into balls. They will be oily and messy because the coconut oil is warm, but will firm up like a candy bar once cooled. At this time, these can be rolled in coconut or coco powder and then placed on a cookie tray. Place in the refrigerator or freezer for 30 minutes. That’s it!
They can then be placed in little, individual candy wrappers and left outside the refrigerator unless it’s a warm day.
Bear Bars
For results that more resemble a chocolate bar, mix in the same fashion as above but instead of balls, press into a square cake or brownie pan and score into bite sized bars. Then place in the refrigerator or freezer.
Fox Fudge
Shorter shelf life and refrigerator-dependent but a fudge-like consistency try adding 1-2 cups of cream cheese.
Low Carb-Bar
For diabetics and others who want high saturated fats but low carbs, simply eliminate dried fruit and or honey. Great consistency, but no sweetness. For those on a high fat, low carb diet, these help suppress the appetite!

48) Make birth a simple, natural event. No drugs and procedures please. If you’ve already had your children, encourage the next generation to embrace natural methods of birth and then support them.
49) Nurse your babies. Nothing is better for baby as well as mother than to nurse for an extended time.
50) Stay away from meds. I know I’ve mentioned this before, but I tend to repeat myself when I get excited. Medications are increasingly implicated as cancer producing agents. Keep your body pure. Sweat out a fever (its curative), put up with a cold and treat the rash homeopathically. Adjust your life to the needs of your body. Don’t force your body to acquiesce to a drug. The body has the ability to resolve many health issues if allowed to respond without restraint. Every pill, ointment, or capsule is a method of concealing the body’s natural ability to right the wrong. Suppressed symptoms equal pathology later…not always cancer, but why take the chance? Learn to cure yourself and family.
51) Do your homework. Just because someone tells you that this is it, doesn’t mean it is. Question, find the alternative and then question them as well. There are more myths abounding than truths.
The best way to beat cancer and other chronic illness is to prevent it in the first place. And the methods aren’t that difficult to accomplish if we within reasonable guidelines that have been followed throughout the ages. At first some of these proposals may seem daunting, but once you analyze them, you’ll surely find that many of the suggestions are already a part of your daily habit. Take on a few new ones right away and resolve to complete the rest of the list over a period of a few months or so.
Number 8.) Prepare your own meals. This means nothing from a box. If you’re reading labels, you’ve already made the wrong selection. Buy plain chicken, fresh broccoli, a head of lettuce, fresh eggs, and butter. At least start by making your own salad dressings.
