Homeopathy for self help: It all makes sense!

It all makes sense!

Dear Genie

When I read in your book that "homeopathic medicines are now being recognised as electro-magnetic solutions" I found the explanation to a theory of mine.

Over the 50 years of using herbal remedies and the last 35 years homeopathic remedies as well, I have only now with Genie’s book been able to put all the knowledge together and it now all makes sense. The reason why some herbs ( maybe more than is currently known) have harmful effects is that we have been eating the whole plant crushed into tablet form or capsules. Sometimes even the roots are crushed up to make more profit and the alkaloids in their roots may not be so good for the body or visa versa. This could be the case of Comfrey that has now been banned as it intoxicates the liver. I still drink the tea made from the leaves and steeped for a very short time.

Some plants like the potato plant the leaves are toxic and the root is not and in others the root is and not the leaves such as Water Dropwort where the root is edible but the root is toxic. Some plants are toxic at certain stages of its development like the Cocklebur that is very toxic to livestock just before it reaches the two leaf stage. With all these variables and the so many people developing herbal medicines there is a danger of ignorance or greed affecting the safety of these remedies.

This coupled with the tendency of people overdosing because they think it is herbal it is harmless has brought herbal remedies into disrepute. My family came from the Island of Madeira and used a few herbs for common ailments. My grandmother showed me when I was little how to make tea from Lemon Grass leaves. She taught me to strip the leafy part from the vein and discard the vein. She said it was poisonous and only 3 small leaves were to be used per cup for it to be effective as a sedative and to help digestion.

An important instruction was that the tea was to be steeped for no more than 5 to 10 seconds and then the leaves had to be removed and then the tea could be sipped slowly. Another remedy that has specific instructions is Black Jack flowers for Diarrhoea. I brought up 2 children with this remedy and they never used any conventional remedies for this ailment. If they were not followed to the letter then the condition would actually get worse.

Dosage for a small child would be 3 flowers and for a baby only one. An adult would use 5 flowers in a cup of boiling water and again you only stirred about 5 times and the water would take on a golden hue. The flowers would be removed and then the tea sipped slowly. It could only be taken once after every bowel movement. If you drank another cup and had not been to the toilet then you would certainly have to go and the whole treatment would fail. I had an experience of this recently when I was going to The Kruger Park with my 2 sisters and a friend.

One of my sisters came from Australia with a terrible tummy bug and of course it spread like wild fire. We had to bury my mother’s ashes on her brother’s grave before we went and the stress levels were high and of course all of us succumbed. The friend had also lost her father 2 weeks before and she had already had the bug so she also got sick. I was so desperate that I increased the dose to 7 flowers and the condition got worse. I was also steeping the tea too long as I was running around getting things ready for the trip and not taking care how long it was steeped.

Chamomile is another herb that can cause diarrhoea if taken too strong. A friend of mine has given her 11 month old baby a chamomile mixture made for babies but she vomits each time. She may be sensitive and the chamomile is too crude for her stomach. I realised that herbal teas were the ancestors of homeopathic remedies and what has evolved from homeopathy are these potentised remedies. Everything else has evolved on the planet at an astronomical rate and it looks like potentised remedies has the potential of bringing healing out of the dark ages. Much needed after the fiasco of anti-biotics that have given birth to super bugs. (google MRSA)

I understood why the herbal teas had to be steeped for only a few seconds when I read in Genie’s book about the experiments of Masaru Emoto. I also realised that his experiments involved distilled water and today any water from the tap is so heavy in organic and inorganic matter that it has lost its quality to hold the signature of the herb. ( I know this as I worked for a friend who owns a company that installs RO units and have seen the filters and membranes when they are replaced. The one that removes the metallic particles are all black . I also have a tester that will show all the impurities in the water)

What I find appealing about the Potentised Remedies is that:

They are more powerful than the original Homeopathic remedies.
In spray form they are very practical and quick to administer the correct dose
They do not have side effects
Very well priced for this economic climate
The Symphony range makes it easy for the lay person to help themselves
The tissue salts in the maestro range are a dream come true for me because the old ones in tablet form used to make be bilious and I had to take them many times a day because they were in 6x potency.
