The other day, I ran into an old friend, Jessica, an avid tennis player. She said that she and a few other people she knew had recently developed plantar fasciitis.
“Would homeopathy help something mechanical like this?”
“Of course, it can!”
Homeopathy treats the ills of humanity. It doesn’t stop at mechanical conditions or injuries. (more…)

Last year at this time, I posted a blog on the value of the darling of remedies for the shock and sorrows of empty nesting. In other words, the ultimate tool to keep mothers sane after the last fledgling leaves the home.

“One of the greatest threats to public health is the rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria … this is due to the misuse and overuse of antibiotics.”

Conjunctivitis. Pinkeye. Eye infection. Whatever you call it, it means the same thing: inflammation of the conjunctiva, due to either a bacterial or viral infection or due to allergens or irritants.

Before my first baby was born, I prepared myself. I was not interested in counting on a pediatrician and his synthetic drugs, so I studied botanicals and collected wild herbs from the meadows and lanes around the countryside of Western New York.

Antibiotics suppress symptoms such as fever and ear infections but at a cost. Generally, they drive the pathology deeper into the body until it re-emerges later as a more serious problem. This is why one illness follows another shortly after the use of drugs to “control” the symptoms of the first.
And gastrointestinal problems such as food intolerance emerge shortly after rounds (sometimes only one) of antibiotics. (more…)
Back in the '80s when I was birthing my first child, it was difficult to find a doctor who would agree to the kind of experience I wanted.
My idea of birthing was one in which I did all the work, and the midwife or doctor stood by in case I needed them. No drugs. No procedures. No interference.
I did everything I knew to make that happen. (more…)
