Meditation is a wonderful way to slow down, to have some ‘you’ time, to touch base with your inner core. When you meditate, you are not trying to achieve anything other than this. There are no fixed outcomes to attempt to achieve.

Yet by meditating regularly, you can go a long way to improve your life and so your health. Regular meditators can lower their blood pressure, bring calmness to a volatile situation, are more creative and can access their inner wisdom for decisions.

I don’t believe that meditation can replace homeopathy. But it can and does compliment it very well.

Not all modalities compliment homeopathy well, as they can work against it. I understand that both aromatherapy and chiropractic don’t work well with homeopathy, but I have no personal experience of this.

When I first started to learn how to meditate, things went along quite well for a while. Then people came to stay, life got busier and it became more difficult to find the time

I always felt that I should try to get back into it, and frequently made the effort. But it was not very successful. Even meditation tapes weren’t that helpful.

I was easily distracted.

Until, I stumbled across EOC Institute with The EquiSync Program
The Equisync safely and effortlessly puts you in precisely the same electrical brain wave pattern of profoundly deep meditation, every time.

EquiSync uses what is called Binaural Audio Technology. In 1839 Heinrich Wilhelm Dove, a Prussian physicist and meteorologist, discovered that when you introduce a tone with a different frequency into each ear, the brain automatically perceives the difference while simultaneously working to combine the tones. This triggers the brain to produce its own third signal, called a binaural beat, equal to the exact mathematical difference between the two tones. Scientists call this effect "frequency following response" (FFR).

For instance, if a frequency of 222 Hz is played into your right ear and 211 Hz into your left, your brain will automatically detect the difference and a third frequency (electrical signal) will begin to beat at 11Hz. Your brain will tune into this specific 11 Hz frequency, inducing alpha brain waves, which is very pleasurable and relaxing.

EquiSync claims that by regularly listening to their CDs, you can more easily access the deep meditative states it normally takes years to achieve. Because this takes you away from your normal stresses of daily life, it allows your body to start functioning as it should - ie, better health, sounder sleep, suffer less with stress, etc.

What is interesting is that I want to meditate now. Now the excuses are for other things that stop me meditating.

The only piece of special equipment needed to play the CDs is a set of stereo headphones. Ones that cover your ear, to muffle most of the surrounding noises.

Thought of the Week

Like a great poet, Nature produces greatest results with the simplest means. These are simply a sun, flowers, water, and love. Of course, if the spectator be without the last, the whole will present but a pitiful appearance; and in that case, the sun is merely so many miles in diameter, the trees are good for fuel, the flowers are classified by stamens and the water is simply wet.
Heinrich Heine

Homoeopathy Doesn’t Need to Judge You

Judging others seems to be inherent in humanity. And yet, we hate being judged ourselves. Every culture, every country, every religion, every group seems to be in the business of judging others who are not part of their group. Even friends and family judge you if you don’t do what they think is the right thing - for them.

But perhaps the most vicious attacks to ‘non members’ of a group come from the medical profession. If you don’t conform to the normal ‘compliant patient’ picture you are often made to feel foolish, irresponsible or worse.

Take an unusual symptom. Something that doctors or vets haven’t been trained to deal with. Because they don’t know, they can’t help. And often belittle you in the process, by turning it back on you.

Yet if you go to a homoeopath, we love unusual symptoms. It’s what we thrive on! They are sold gold to us, because an unusual symptom normally leads us straight to only one or a few remedies. So our job is much easier.

These symptoms are known as the peculiar, queer, rare or strange symptoms - the PQRS.

Whilst I can’t vouch for personalities within the homeopathic profession not judging you, the modality itself has such a wide scope, it has no use in judging.

Which means that when a problem can’t be resolved from a few consultations, it comes down to only two causes. You, the patient or me, the practitioner.

Never the modality of homeopathy. Which, I am convinced, can heal every condition. Healing every person/animal is another matter.

Whilst it’s up to you to be as open and honest as you can be about yourself, during a consultation, it’s also up to me to be on the ball, to work on myself and my knowledge.

I love the challenge of discarding old patterns of thinking which are no longer serving me. And ultimately the newness of thinking differently.

And I love learning about new aspects of homeopathy. I doubt that I will ever stop learning.

So with every passing year, I (hope) I know more, and I feel I am a more proficient practitioner.

Getting back to judging others, humans have such a strong desire not to be judged, to be accepted, that you will often go to great lengths to be just that. Even if it means going against a strong feeling that this is not right for you.

When that happens, it usually means that you are suppressing your own uniqueness. This is never healthy and things will smoulder, maybe for years. But ultimately things will start to go wrong.

By being brave enough to stand up to others, over things that you feel are right for you, then although it may be hard initially, life generally will improve, often beyond your wildest dreams.

There’s a fine line between judging others and recognising their differences. Accepting someone is different is not judging. Judging comes into play when you are intolerant of their right to be different.

Not judging others means that you are being open enough to accept that you may not be right.

Scary stuff...

Balancing the Anti

Just to try to address the balance of ‘medic bashing’, I recently heard of a sign on a doctor’s door.

Eat lots of vegetables- fart attack
Eat few vegetables - heart attack

Even though doctors and vets have no formal training in nutrition, this one was doing his bit.
