Does stress ever get the best of you?

In homeopathy we see nerves as mental, emotional, physical and chemical. You’ll never hear a homeopath say it’s all in your head, or your hormones.

The body’s responses to stress reveal much about us and our animal instincts. Too often our systems go overboard trying to ‘protect’ us in stressful situations. They send us into a frenzy instead of helping us determine the best ways to reduce stress. Take performance nerves, for example: before going to the podium or interview, our adrenaline kicks in and some of us rise to the task, some of us get butterflies, jitters and fearful, while some of us become sick, dull minded and blank out. We can all blame our flight or fight instincts and chemistry for getting in the way of what we need to do.

What Is Debility?  Which Homeopathic Remedies Can Help?

It might seem like on unusual question, but interestingly enough, about 15,000 people ask it on Google every month! Generally speaking, Debility is a broad medical term used to describe an overall state of weakness.  Although most any physical ailment from the common cold to back pain can leave us feeling weak, debility is a state of weakness characterized by "loss of ability" where the cause is often not clear.  It could be stress, fatigue from over work, recovery from an injury or illness and even mental or emotional turmoil. This state of weakness can leave the body vulnerable to other illnesses.

A Closer Look at "Burning Pain" & Homeopathy

One of the most important nuances in homeopathy is defining symptoms from the homeopathic perspective.  It's usually not enough  to simply use general symptoms like "pain" or even "head pain" when choosing a single homeopathic remedy.   Drilling down and finding a more precise keynote can make all the difference in getting the desired healing response.  For example, there are many homeopathic remedies for pain, including Arnica, Ruta grav, Rhus tox, Bryonia and many more; but when you sharpen the keynote by identifying the type of pain, like "burning pain", it's a bit like finding the missing piece of the puzzle, and you get a substantially narrowed list of possible homeopathic remedies and increase the likelyhood of successful homeopathic treatment.

Homeopathic Earache Remedies

In September of 2006, it was reported by doctors at Yale New Haven Hospital that for earaches, a "wait and see" approach was just as effective as prescribing antibiotics; yet just last month in February 2012, ABC News reported that "even though studies show that antibiotics for ear infections are rarely better than watching and waiting for kids over age 2, many pediatricians prescribe them anyway." When antibiotics are prescribed for ear infections, it is well established that children are more apt to get a recurrence as the body's own defenses are compromised and the inner ear is an ideal location for bacteria to settle. This can lead to additional courses of antibiotics, which may cause the development of resistant strains of bacteria that make infections even harder to treat.

So what's the issue? The truth is, doctors and parents alike want to feel like they are doing something.

Remedies for Stomach Acid, Bloating and Gas

- Two Approaches for restoring digestive balance

When the body sends signals of digestive distress, it is important to treat the source as well as the symptoms. Antacids tend to stimulate more acidity issues and slow digestion, laxatives are addictive, but airborne gasses are embarrassing and colic hurts.  Fortunately, your system can use these homeopathic remedies for bloating and gas and to relieve symptoms of excess stomach acid on the spot and correct imbalances over time.

These two homeopathic remedy combinations offer relief and support for the two distinct phases of digestive distress. Both are safe to take with other medications, including our other digestive combinations.

In Like a Lion, Out Like a Lamb

- On the weather in March, backaches and homeopathy

I suppose we should be happy that it's been a mild winter for most of us; but in the past week many parts of the country were slammed with snow storms and this week's forcast is calling for more.  So even in the mildest of winters, the old "cliche" is still true, the weather in March is "in like a lion."  The obvious issue is heavy snow from slightly warmer and more moist air; shoveling, even walking around in heavy snow can lead to muscle strain and backaches.  Less obvious are the more consistent characteristics of weather in March, like sudden changes in temperature, gusty winds and increasing sunshine.  Combine this with a sometimes dramatic increase in outdoor physical activity and you can understand why backaches and other muscle strains arise.  With a little help from these homeopathic remedies you can help yourself stay pain-free just in time for spring, and see to it that March goes out like lamb.
