Good news of the day: 10-year-old boy with some ADHD symptoms as well as mild articulation and fine motor issues suddenly showed dramatically improved handwriting and drawing skills after mom gave a homaccord of Medorrhinum 30C to 10M, for sinus problems! Never underestimate the potential for an acute infection or similar to move the whole case forward. The acute could be a manifestation of a deeper miasmatic or constitutional layer and/or could be an attempt of the body to throw off on old imprint. Handled correctly this can improve the child overall! This is also why it is so important to not just suppress an acute with allopathic medications if possible. Not only will an opportunity be lost but the medications may distort the vital force further and leave an additional toxic imprint.

Case management: Children with complex challenges often need multiple remedies a week to address different symptoms originating from multiple triggers. Here is an example of a 11-year-old girl with global developmental delays, speech delays, easy overexcitability and tantrums, compulsive picking of the nose and forehead, constipation with accidents and chronic grinding of the teeth. She has been under m care since February and all of the above symptoms have improved, albeit it with different remedies. Homeopathic ultrasound almost immediately improved her speech and reduced irritability, Sulphur helped with bowels and Oxytocin with over-excitability, Arum trifolium with nose picking, Apis and Ledum with forehead picking and Baccilinim with teeth grinding. She is calmer and happier overall now and more in tune with others as well :)

Sharing from my dear colleague Cate Morgan: "This is big news right now, but not old news!
We've known this impact for some time, but depleting glutathione is not the only issue at hand.
When the body is injected with foreign and toxic substances that bypass the usual mucus membrane defense system, it's an assault on the body.
The body then kicks into high gear to produce a healthy immune response by creating a fever, discharge, chills etc. to eliminate that assault. This is the correct Direction of Cure. This healthy immune response is part of the healing process.
When it is squashed by something like Tylenol, Ibuprofen, Paracetamol etc, we are stopping that healthy immune response in its tracks! The inflammation that was created has nowhere to go.
It's buried alive, it's not dead and gone. We need to release that energy of suppression that was created by the Antipyretic aka Tylenol, then we watch for the body to release that stored inflammation from long ago.
Several months ago, I received an intuitive message that I need to start early on detoxing Tylenol with the kiddos I work with, so it's what I've been doing with good results too!
Understand that suppressing the healthy immune response is just as detrimental as the effects of depleting glutathione.
Yes, Antipyretics are bad, but we shouldn't be distracted in the big picture here, so are injecting foreign and toxic substances into our bodies. Then, suppressing the healing process that our body is designed to do, and we have the perfect storm.
We've been inundated with messages that discharges like fevers, runny noses, coughs and rashes are all bad, when in fact they are the cure!
In April, I was invited to speak on the podcast Homeopathy is Changing Lives, Ep45, about my work in detoxing Tylenol from the kiddos I work with.

A 6-month training program with live case studies, to help practitioners learn careful case management over time.
What people said:
"Anke Zimmerman is a wealth of knowledge due to her over 30 years in practice and this is definitely felt in her course. She shares her expertise in approaching complex pediatric cases by sharing live cases, clinical pearls, and homeopathic materia medica that is relevant for these complex cases. Anyone thinking about taking this course, I would recommend Do it! Upon completing the course, you feel more empowered and better equipped to take on cases of Autism and other pediatric conditions."

Update on one of my darling autism kiddos - she is actually mostly recovered now:
"Sulphur, even in 6C, was a breakthrough for her! She kept her clothes on, wrote much smaller letters and much more neatly in between the lines, colored within the lines and drew pictures with much more detail. Her schoolwork has improved dramatically. She is learning to listen and engage more in swim and surf class and is learning to shift her weight on the board. She is also eating a greater variety of foods now. She likes scrambled eggs now." I thought that was interesting as Sulphur often has an aversion to eggs. No detail is too small in homeopathy! So happy this beautiful child is doing so well!

Great news of the day: 13-year-old boy with anxiety, which caused sleep and stomach issues, has been completely well after he took a dose of Natrum mur 200C in May of this year. The anxiety left a day after taking the remedy and has not returned. Sometimes it's just that simple. Potentized salt!

For all of the 'nerds' on her (I'm one of them...) who would like to know more about how homeopathy might work :)

At our upcoming congress, Dr. Alexander Tournier will unpack findings from a major review that mapped 14 different scientific theories exploring the mode of action of homeopathy — everything from water structure ideas to complex systems.

If you would like to read the full text you can find it here:
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40495556/

Stay tuned as we will be sharing updates from the congress at the end of the month!

Sharing a success story: A little girl who was very aggressive with her baby sister and, moreover, showed no remorse for hurting her, was successfully relieved with a special homeopathic remedy potentially linked to the spinal anesthesia her mother received during labor.

Medorrhinum is another important remedy I frequently use in my practice. Physical signs pointing to the possible need for Medorrhinum in children can include chronic, yellow-green nasal discharges, often from a very young age, nail biting down to the quick as well as serious chewing of clothes and zippers, raw and red diaper rashes extending to the front, and what I call the Medorrhinum lip, among others. The Medorrhinum lip is a notably full lower lip that is almost shaped a bit triangular, often looking moist and being licked, exemplified by famous actor Brad Pitt. (I'm not saying he is a Medorrhinum type although he could be). You can also see this in the photo of Brad Pitt here. I have observed these many times in practice. Have any of you noticed the same or similar?

Great news of the day: Very sweet 6-year-old girl on the spectrum is making progress with her cognitive function and speech: When prompted with a letter, she now knows and tries to say a word associated with the letter, such as apple for A. She even did it with me over zoom, that was lovely. Worth celebrating!
