Remedy in the spotlight: Ipecacuanha https://www.facebook.com/share/p/18CLBuU7az/

Remedy Spotlight: Ipecacuanha (Ipecac)

Ipecac is a key remedy for persistent nausea and vomiting, especially when there is no relief after being sick. It’s often used in children or during pregnancy, and also in cases with bleeding (from the nose, uterus, stomach, etc.) where blood is bright red.

When to Think of Ipecac

• Nausea that is constant, not better from vomiting
• Vomiting with clean tongue, no other obvious signs
• Cough with gagging or vomiting (especially in children)
• Morning sickness in pregnancy, especially with lots of saliva and gagging
• Bright red bleeding: such as nosebleeds, heavy periods, or after injury
• Asthmatic breathing or wheezing in children with rattling coughs

Physical Picture:

• Persistent nausea with salivation
• Face may be pale or blue-tinged around the mouth
• Tongue often clean and moist, despite strong symptoms
• Rattling in the chest with difficulty bringing anything up
• Restless, uncomfortable, often worse from warm rooms

Emotional Picture:

• Irritable or distressed during illness
• Doesn’t want to be touched
• Over-sensitive and difficult to console when unwell
• Feels better lying still and breathing carefully

Modality Snapshot:

Worse from: warmth, motion, smell of food, lying flat
Better from: open air, sitting upright, rest

It’s a useful remedy in the early stages of illness, especially in children or during pregnancy, when the stomach feels unsettled and the chest feels tight.

An Ipecac person might say:

“I feel sick all the time, and nothing helps.”
“I keep coughing until I vomit.”
“I’m weak and pale, but my tongue is clean.”

As always, remedies work best when they match the full picture and Ipecac should be prescribed with care, especially in strong or recurring symptoms. When in doubt, consult a qualified homeopath.

Tissue salts are low dose homeopathic remedies that support the body on many levels.
https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1CCwhbjXqi/

🌿 The 3 Tissue Salts Every Household Can Use
(And why they’re such a good place to start)

If I could only keep three tissue salts in my cupboard, these would be them.

Not because they “fix everything” — but because they cover the most common, everyday situations families deal with, and they’re easy to recognise once you know what to look for.

🔥 Ferr phos
Think first stage inflammation.

This is the salt I reach for at the very beginning of things:
▪ fevers just starting
▪ sore throats coming on
▪ fresh injuries, bumps, falls
▪ that hot, red, throbbing feeling

Ferr phos supports oxygen delivery and circulation at the cellular level, speeding healing. It’s often called the first-aid salt, as it is required at the onset of things.

🤧 Kali mur
Think congestion and thickened fluids.

This one shows up constantly in family life:
▪ colds with white or grey mucus
▪ swollen glands
▪ sinus congestion
▪ sluggish digestion after illness

Kali mur helps the body resolve congestion, not suppress it - and is a quiet workhorse in many recovery situations. Whenever thick whitish grey mucus is seen or lymph glands are swollen, we need Kali mur.

🌙 Mag phos
Think cramps, pain, and tension.

This is the classic anti-spasmodic salt:
▪ muscle cramps
▪ period pain
▪ colic and tummy pain
▪ nerve tension and “wired but tired” states

Magnesium is vital for the correct functioning of nerves and muscles, it relieves cramping muscles and soothes nerve pains.

These three don’t replace learning the full system —
but they give you practical support without overwhelm.

They also help beginners build confidence:
👉 you start noticing patterns
👉 you understand what the body is asking for
👉 you stop guessing and start observing

From there, everything else makes much more sense. And continuing the learning becomes more appealing, once you have had real results in real life situations.

If you’re new to tissue salts, this is a gentle place to begin 😊

ANXIETY: Most people suffer from anxiety at some point in their lives which is only natural such as before an event like a job interview, a visit to the dentist or starting something new.
When anxiety is becoming more frequent and not always for a known reason, it is a good idea to have a look at what the root cause of the anxiety is. Is it something that has been building up slowly because life is stressful? Is it since a distressing event? Is it something that has been with you all your life? Does anxiety give you physical symptoms like headaches, skin problems, upset digestion?
Whatever the cause, something can be done about it.
In a homeopathic consultation we look at all aspects of life and see if any changes can be made to avoid anxiety as well as prescribing supporting remedies.
This article gives some remedies that can be tried at home.

Explore safe and effective homeopathic remedies for anxiety. Soothe your mind and relax your body with these holistic approaches.

🧱 Weak Tissues, Slow Healing, or Recurrent Suppuration?
Think Silica — The Mineral of Structure, Cohesion, and Clean Elimination 🔬

Silicic oxide (Silica) is found in all cells and all organs, with a particular affinity for connective tissue, skin, hair, nails, bone, nerve sheaths, and lymphoid tissue.

Schuessler regarded Silica as a rejuvenating and constitutional remedy, essential for maintaining tissue integrity, firmness, and the body’s ability to expel waste cleanly rather than retain it.

Silica is essential for:
▪ maintaining solidity and cohesiveness of tissues
▪ strengthening connective tissue, skin, hair, nails, and bone
▪ regulating suppuration and allowing pus or foreign matter to be expelled
▪ dissolving uric acid deposits and crystalline accumulations (with Nat phos)
▪ supporting nerve conduction and sensory stability
▪ restoring tissue vitality after long-standing weakness or depletion

In youth, Silica content is naturally high.
With age, deficiency shows as loss of tone, delayed healing, brittleness, weakness, deep wrinkles and chronic discharge(weeping wounds).

🚨 When Silica is deficient, tissues cannot “finish the job”
Instead of resolving inflammation, the body walls things off.
This leads to:
▪ stubborn abscesses
▪ retained pus
▪ fistulas
▪ foreign bodies that won’t expel
▪ slow fracture healing
▪ chronic skin and ear infections
▪ crystalline deposits in joints (gout-like states)

Silica doesn’t force elimination —
it restores the tissue’s intelligence so elimination can occur naturally. this mineral is vital for phagocytes (the bodies 'eater cells') to function, meaning it is easier for bacteria and debris to build up when silica is low (as the 'eater cell's' are handicapped!)

✅ Use Silica 6x–12x when you notice:
▪ Slow or incomplete healing
▪ Recurrent abscesses, boils, or suppuration
▪ Brittle nails, weak hair, poor skin tone
▪ Weak connective tissue or poor resistance to infection
▪ Ear infections with delayed discharge
▪ Chronic joint pain linked to uric acid deposits
▪ Children who appear under-developed despite adequate nutrition
▪ Sensitivity to light, noise, or sensory overload
▪ Nervous exhaustion with tissue weakness

🧬 How it works (from the biochemistry):
• Silica strengthens and binds connective tissue
It increases cohesiveness and solidity where tissues have become lax, flabby, or degenerated. (especially effective when used with Calc fluor)

• It governs suppuration and expulsion
When Silica is sufficient, the body can complete inflammatory processes properly.
When deficient, suppuration is delayed, painful, and incomplete. This is the bodies 'surgeon salt' that allows passages to be cut painlessly for easy expulsion (pimples, splinters etc)

• It dissolves crystalline waste deposits
Silica assists in breaking down urates and acid crystals that lodge in joints, nerves, and connective tissue. (when combined with nat phos)

• It supports nerve sheaths and sensory regulation
Silica is present in neurolemma and myelin structures, explaining its role in sensory sensitivity, nerve fatigue, and nervous instability when deficient.

• It restores long-term tissue vitality
Silica is a constitutional salt — often required over extended periods to rebuild tissue integrity, especially in children and the elderly.

✨ Think of Silica as the body’s master finisher —
the mineral that strengthens structure, completes healing, and allows waste to leave instead of linger.

When Silica is restored,
tissues firm, healing completes, sensitivity settles, and the body regains its ability to clean up after itself.

Become as strong and sharp as Quartz and as resilient as Papyrus or Bamboo through the power of Silica 🔥

🜃 The 5 Silent Poisons – No One Mentions in Your Detox

By Lee – Soul & Cell Detox – The Gentle Way Back to You

⸻

They’re not in your smoothie. They’re not in your lab results. And they’re not sold on your favorite spiritual shop.

But they live in your cells. They ferment in your gut.

They thicken your blood, like ancient grief.

They whisper in your womb when you try to cleanse.

They are the five poisons no one names —

because they’re harder to remove than sugar, gluten, or parasites:

🜃 Mucus. Guilt. Shame. Self-Betrayal. Soullessness.

And unless you detox those, you’ll keep running in circles — flushing, fasting, fermenting —

but never truly coming home.

⸻

🜃 1. Mucus – The Physical Echo of Emotional Suppression

In Ayurveda, excess Kapha (mucus) is not just from food — it’s from uncried tears, swallowed rage, and a lifetime of “I’m fine.”

In Siddha medicine, Bogar described how emotional toxins accumulate as a sticky etheric substance in the Shukla Nadi — the subtle reproductive channel.

In African bone medicine, this mucus is called “ancestral thickness.” It blocks the dreamtime. It coats intuition. It is the fog that keeps you from hearing your soul.

And no… celery juice won’t touch it

unless your tears touch it first.

⸻

🜃 2. Guilt – The Hidden Parasite of the Feminine

Agastyar said guilt is a cord-binding frequency.

It anchors the womb to karmas that no longer serve.

In Japan, a woman who carries too much guilt is called onryō no ko — the child of a haunted womb.

In Mexico, curanderas use copal smoke to clear the guilt-ghosts of abortions, sexual shame, or maternal neglect.

Guilt feeds energetic parasites. They don’t care about gluten — they feed on your sense of being unworthy.

⸻

🜃 3. Shame – The Lock on Your Cellular Gates

Shame is not just a feeling. It is a biochemical shutdown. Studies in Europe show that chronic shame lowers mitochondrial function and immune response.

But the Siddhas knew this long ago.

They wrote that shame creates a reverse spiral in the aura — a kind of energetic entanglement that pulls life force inward and down.

Vallalar taught that to activate the Golden Body,

you must purify shame at the DNA level —

through light, breath, and forgiveness of the self.

You cannot detox what you are ashamed to see.

⸻

🜃 4. Self-Betrayal – The Most Addictive Substance of All

In Amazonian lineages, it is said:

“The body can survive so much — but not soul-betrayal.”

Self-betrayal happens when you override your no.

When you say yes with a trembling voice.

When you leave yourself, again and again, to be loved, seen, or accepted.

This poison builds slowly. It doesn’t cause inflammation. It causes invisibility.

Ayurvedic texts call it Pragnya Aparadha —

the crime against your own knowing.

And until you make peace with her —

you will sabotage every healing journey you begin.

⸻

🜃 5. Soullessness – The Final Poison

This is the hardest to name.

Because it’s the most common. A soul is not lost overnight. It leaves in pieces — through chronic overgiving, emotional violence, or spiritual bypassing.

In the Siddha path, Kagapujendar taught that soul detachment begins when the breath is abandoned —

when a woman stops breathing from her womb

and starts living from survival.

In Europe, Hildegard von Bingen wrote of

the loss of green vitality in the soul.

In Africa, it’s known as “being awake, but no longer home.” And here’s the truth: Most cleanses don’t touch this. Because it can’t be touched by food.

Only by truth.

⸻

🜃 True Detox Is a Return to Soul

This is not about blame. This is about remembrance.

Your cells are not confused. They are responding to what’s true — and rejecting what’s not.

If you’ve ever wondered why your cleanse didn’t work, why your gut stayed bloated, why your skin kept flaring up… Maybe it wasn’t your liver.

Maybe it was your lie.

You can’t out-fast your guilt.

You can’t out-supplement your shame.

You can’t castor-oil-pack your way out of self-abandonment.

But you can start here:

🜃 Speak the unspoken.

🜃 Touch the frozen.

🜃 Choose yourself — even when it hurts.

Because when you detox your truth,

the mucus clears.

The parasites die.

And your soul returns.

⸻

🜃

This is the work. This is the medicine.

And your body is listening.

With truth,

Lee

Why Routine Feels Like Survival When You Have ADHD
One of the biggest misunderstandings about ADHD is the idea that people with ADHD “hate structure.” In reality, it’s often the opposite. ADHD minds need structure more than almost anyone else — not because they’re rigid or controlling, but because without structure, the world becomes overwhelming, unpredictable, and mentally exhausting. A daily routine doesn’t restrict an ADHD brain; it protects it.
When you grow up with ADHD, you spend years battling decision fatigue, chaotic mornings, forgotten tasks, last-minute emergencies, and the constant feeling that you’re behind before the day even starts. Without structure, life becomes one long reaction instead of an intentional flow. You’re always responding, catching up, fixing, apologizing, or trying to regain control.
That’s why a routine isn’t just a “nice idea” for ADHD — it’s a lifeline.
Routine removes friction.
Routine reduces pressure.
Routine builds safety.
Routine gives ADHDers something the brain rarely provides on its own: predictability.
People with ADHD don’t wake up with a natural internal sense of order. Their brain doesn’t send reminders automatically. Their time awareness fluctuates. Their motivation depends on emotional and energetic waves. And their executive functioning — the system that organizes thoughts, plans actions, and maintains momentum — often needs external support. A routine becomes that support.
When your day is structured, you don’t waste precious mental energy figuring out “what comes next.” Instead of constantly switching tasks or chasing thoughts, the brain can settle into a rhythm. Decision fatigue reduces, making space for clarity. Productivity rises, not because you’re forcing yourself, but because your mind isn’t juggling a hundred choices at once.
Routine also reduces stress. ADHD brains get overwhelmed easily because they hold too much information at the surface level. Every unfinished task, every undone chore, every forgotten responsibility floats around in mental space and creates background noise. When you have a routine, that noise quiets down. You don’t have to hold everything in your head — the routine holds it for you.
Even time itself becomes easier to manage. One of the biggest challenges with ADHD is time-blindness — that sense of time slipping or stretching in unpredictable ways. Days blur together. Hours vanish. Weeks pass before you realize it. But a consistent routine teaches the brain to recognize patterns. It helps create a more stable internal clock so time doesn’t feel like a runaway train.
Sleep improves too. And sleep is one of the most important pillars for managing ADHD traits. A consistent wake-up and bedtime schedule regulates your internal rhythms, making it easier to think clearly, focus, and manage emotional ups and downs throughout the day. Good sleep stabilizes energy — and stable energy makes ADHD symptoms far more manageable.
Another quiet benefit of routine is how it builds healthy habits without the brain having to “think about doing them” every day. ADHD brains struggle to remember repetitive habits, but repetition through routine makes habits automatic. When habits become automatic, the daily mental load gets lighter. You stop negotiating with yourself every morning. You stop depending on motivation — which the ADHD brain offers inconsistently. Instead, the routine carries you.
Emotionally, routine acts as an anchor. ADHDers often experience emotional intensity and rapid shifts in mood. Unpredictable days amplify that intensity because the brain feels unsafe in chaos. But a familiar routine gives the nervous system stability. It says, “You’re okay. You know what’s happening next.” It grounds the mind before overwhelm can take root.
People often assume ADHDers want spontaneity and freedom over structure. The truth is that ADHDers seek structure precisely so they can experience freedom. When your life has a stable foundation, you finally have space to enjoy creativity, hobbies, impulsive fun, and rest — without guilt or chaos behind it. Routine doesn’t shrink your life; it expands it.
A routine doesn't have to be strict, complicated, or perfect. ADHD routines work best when they are flexible, simple, and designed for real human energy — not idealized versions of productivity. A good routine adapts, supports, and breathes with you. It doesn’t punish you for slipping. It guides you back gently.
For ADHDers, a daily routine is more than a schedule. It’s self-respect. It’s self-support. It’s a way of telling your brain, “You don’t have to figure everything out alone.” It’s a way of reducing the constant chaos that so many neurodivergent people have lived with since childhood. It’s a step toward emotional stability, mental clarity, and the small sense of peace that comes from knowing your day isn’t built on guesswork.
Structure doesn’t limit an ADHD brain — it frees it.
It frees you from constant overwhelm.
It frees you from decision fatigue.
It frees you from last-minute panic.
It frees you from the guilt of always feeling behind.
And most importantly, it frees you to live your life with intention instead of exhaustion.
ADHD thrives on external systems because those systems give the brain what it naturally struggles to create on its own — order, calm, and a sense of direction. When you build even a small routine, you give yourself a foundation strong enough to support your mind on the days it feels scattered, heavy, tired, or overstimulated.
A daily routine won’t solve every ADHD challenge, but it transforms the emotional landscape you live in. It shifts life from survival mode to something steadier, kinder, and far more manageable.
With the right structure, your days stop happening to you — and start happening with you.

CAUSTICUM is a very useful but much overlooked remedy.
https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1CF56kJL4n/

Causticum is a remedy for those who feel things deeply and personally, especially injustice, loss, and long-term grief. It’s often needed when someone is worn down, emotionally or physically, from caring too much for too long.

This is a person who stands up for others, cries easily when witnessing cruelty, and may feel exhausted or hopeless after emotional strain or chronic illness.

Think of Causticum when

• There is a deep sense of injustice or loss
• The person cries easily, especially when seeing others suffer
• They feel worn out, trembly, or weak
• They have a hoarse voice or even temporary loss of voice
• There is a lingering cough or bladder weakness after illness
• They feel emotionally stuck, like they never truly recovered from a shock or grief

Top Uses

• Hoarseness or voice loss, especially from overuse or exposure to cold air
• Chronic dry cough, worse in the evening or from talking
• Weakness of the bladder or after childbirth, with involuntary urination
• Trembling hands, especially with fatigue or nervousness
• Long-term grief that never really healed, especially after caring for others constantly

Emotional Picture

The person needing Causticum is often serious, empathetic, and deeply affected by the suffering of others. They may have a strong sense of justice and responsibility, sometimes to the point of burnout.
There can be a quiet despair or heaviness, as though they’ve carried too much for too long.

Did you know?

Causticum is a unique homeopathic preparation, not made from a plant or mineral, but from a chemical process involving potassium and lime. In its potentised form, it becomes a remedy for emotional resilience and physical recovery when the system feels worn out.
