It's not just for bee stings!

This honeybee remedy helps when your body (or emotions) are inflamed, hot, red, swollen, or stinging — whether it’s your skin, your throat, your joints, or your feelings.

Think of Apis when your system feels overheated, irritated, and ready to sting back.

It’s for the moments when you’re puffy with pain or emotion — and what you really need is cooling, calm, and space to breathe again

Purchase Apis as a single remedy from the website or as part of a kit!

Australia’s humidity + flood season = the perfect storm for mould growth.

I've seen quite a few clients this week with mould exposure symptoms so I thought I'd pop this here.

Have you ever met someone who feels every little draft, flinches at the lightest touch, and just can’t tolerate pain?
That’s the picture of Hepar sulphuris calcareum (Hepar sulph) – one of homeopathy’s most important remedies for sensitivity and infection.

This remedy is often called the “homeopathic antibiotic” because of its role in conditions with pus formation, abscesses, and painful inflammation. As always, homeopathy isn't just about the physical symptoms - there's a really interesting mental and emotional picture for Hepar sulph too.

Think of Hepar sulph when there is:

- Extreme sensitivity to pain and touch
-Infections that discharge thick, yellow, offensive pus
-Chilliness and an intense desire for warmth
-Irritability, oversensitivity, and a need for reassurance

People called me crazy for saying even paracetamol has side effects and now the truth is out in the mainstream!

Most people think paracetamol is benign, "safe" and "harmless", but like all medications, it carries risks - especially used long term or in high doses.

Here's the homeopathic remedies I routinely use in clinic and found effective as a homeopath, gut health specialist and mum of 4 kids:

FEVER
Belladonna – sudden high fevers with flushed face and throbbing head.
Aconite – fevers that strike after shock, fright, or exposure to cold.
Ferrum Phos – the early stages of fever, mild or just beginning.

HEADACHES & MIGRAINES
Nux Vomica – headaches from overwork, stress, stimulants, or hangovers.
Bryonia – headaches worse from movement, better with pressure and lying still.
Belladonna – intense, throbbing headaches with heat.
Gelsemium – dull, heavy headaches, often with flu or exhaustion.

MENSTRUAL CRAMPS
Magnesia Phos – cramping pains eased by warmth or pressure.
Pulsatilla – changeable flow, emotional sensitivity, pain better outdoors or with company.
Cocculus – pain with nausea, dizziness, or fatigue.

TEETHING, DENTAL PAINS & ACHES
Chamomilla – pain that feels unbearable, especially in children.
Arnica – soreness and bruising after dental work or injury.
Hypericum – sharp, shooting nerve pain, especially after extractions.

JOIN & MUSCLE PAIN
Rhus Tox – stiffness and pain worse at first movement, better as you keep moving.
Arnica – soreness and bruising after exercise or trauma.
Bryonia – pain worse with any movement, better lying still.

IMPORTANT NOTES:
The right remedy is matched to you and your unique symptom picture, not just the label of “headache” or “fever" - this post is designed to be a bit of a starting place.
