Homeopathy

Homeopathy Explained (Sort of)

Many people are confused as to what homeopathy actually is. It is sometimes used as a term to describe natural supplements or natural health in a general sense. However, homeopathy is much more specific than that. It is a system based on energetic principles referred to as quantum physics.

Here’s how it’s done. A substance such as St John’s Wort, Dandelion root is soaked in an alcohol solution for about 2 weeks. The chemical constituents (ingredients) from that substance are transferred to the alcohol. The resulting solution is called the mother tincture.

The mother tincture is combined with an alcohol/water solution at a dilution of 10 to 1. Ten parts alcohol/water solution to one part mother tincture, then the new diluted solution is succussed (shaken) violently many times. This process is done again with ten parts alcohol/water and one part of the new diluted solution. The resulting mixture is now one part mother tincture to one hundred parts alcohol/ water. This process is repeated over and over again. A 6X homeopathic has been diluted and successed six times and the resulting mixture would be one part mother tincture to one million parts alcohol/water. After 32X (being diluted and succussed 32 times) in the above manner, there is no equipment sophisticated enough to detect any measurable amount of the original mother tincture. The original substance is gone but what it left is it’s energy signature.

Here’s the part that’s difficult to buy into: the more the solution is diluted the more potent it becomes! We have been conditioned to believe that in order for a substance to be effective it must possess large amounts of material ingredients. This is true with allopathic medicines but not so with homeopathics. The two systems couldn’t be any more different in their approach. Allopathy seeks to treat disease and it’s symptoms with potenized and usually toxic ingredients designed to be toxic enough to kill off the invader ie: germs, viruses and bacteria. This process works from the outside in. Homeopathy on the other hand, uses non-toxic energetic signatures to strengthen the bodies ability to heal itself from the inside out. Homeopathics are always non-toxic and safe for everyone. That’s why you don’t need a prescription to buy them.

It’s the energy signature that will strengthen the bodies ability to overcome imbalances in the system. The energy acts sort of like a software program with specific instructions telling the body what to do and where to direct it’s energy.

I hope that helps give you a better understanding of homeopathy and how it works.
