What brought you to homeopathy? Tell your story here.

When my son was 3, he wasn't talking, so I took him to a homoeopath, who suggested phos ac (hpus), St. John's Wort (mother tincture), and Rock Rose (Bach Flower), and in two weeks, as she predicted, he began talking, singing along with his older sister in the car. Also, his younger sister had a heart murmur, took the homoeopathics recommended from the same homeopath, (I think amyl nit or sang, I can't remember), and the next check up, the doc thought he had read the monitor wrong, because the murmur was gone. This was back in 1989 and it began , for me, years of study, some intense work with avian cases, and an eventual N.D. and D.I Hom.

What is your vision for the future of homeopathy

My greatest vision for the field of homeopathy, is that 1)
The vision includes homeopaths getting along, classical and 21st century, as complementary and exploratory fields, not afraid of mainstream thinking, but knowing the power of enhancing protocols with this bona fide path to healing.
2) My overall vision would be that all schools, all hospitals, all clinics, all parents' first aid kits and medicine cabinets would include homeopathics as an over the counter purchase, with such an ease to turn to, in a world that isn't being poisoned by aspartame, fluoride, et cetera.

Why I have joined this network. . .

I want to promote homeopathy, I want to meet like-minded people, I want to learn more about homeopathy, I want to advocate for homeopathy, I want to join a local community of homeopaths, I want to be involved with the homeopathic community at large

What is your background? It can be other backgrounds & careers. Prof. Degrees? You may direct people to your blog.

I have a B.A. in French. I have lived in France and Quebec. I have taught the gamut, at the University level in a graduate program in French, and recently created a primary program in an entrpreneurial charter school, boasting French in grades 1-3. I have studied Naturopathy through an online/long distance college (I am not licensed), and wrote my dissertation for my N.D. on spina bifida through the life span, where I wrote up a theory of the mineral and nutritional deficits which cause it. I also included a series of homeopathic complementary choices to help side effects of required allopathic meds, extend the quality of life, and heal various problems that arise through the life span. Then I did, online and in class studies through the BIH, Trevor Cook being my mentor, whereby I earned a D.I.Hom., and was invited to be a fellow. I encourage others to go to homeopaths, I teach others the importance of homeopathy but I am not licensed to practice it, therefore call me an advocate, and call me a doc in a future lifetime and/or alternate, because all preparation is important, no matter when.

How has homeopathy changed your life? Take a moment to think about your answer.

Homoeopathy changed my life when it took the ars alb kind of fear away from me, and instead gave me confidence to ignore the alerts and other scares in these past years. I was adopted and homeopathy gave me the choice to not cling to genetic patterns. Most of all, homoeopathy was like a river I stepped into, feeling a part of the great scheme of thngs, through the law of similars. We are attracted to like in friends, work, places, people and things. We are a living example of Homeopathy.

What are your interests besides homeopathy? Inquiring minds want to know.

I like making business cards, brochures, which is, for me, like painting a room, creating the written word into a form that is easily enjoyed. It is a hoot for me. I also am nuts over a certain tapestry in France, where the panels depict prophecy within prophecy. I wrote a book on it which I would like to publish some day. I also made a card game of the tapestry using photographs taken by a friend in France. This too, I plan to publish. I enjoy esoteric pattern observation from astrology to numbers, to facial traits, to my latest, a philosophy by the late Doctor John Kappas, on emotional and physical sexual behaviors.
