If your little one has ever been up all night with an earache, you’ll know just how upsetting it can be 💔

Ear infections are incredibly common in young children, especially after colds — but for some families, they seem to come back again and again. Many parents feel stuck in a cycle of pain, antibiotics, and worry about longer-term issues like glue ear.
In this post, I’m sharing a gentle, homeopathic perspective on why ear infections happen, what may be driving them (including mucus and possible dairy sensitivities), and natural ways to support your child’s healing — both in the moment and long term.

Take a read if you’re looking for a more holistic approach to supporting your child’s ear health 💛

🌿 Yesterday’s Sacred Death Centre Community Homeopathy Clinic was, once again, a deeply moving space to hold.
As a homeopath, it is a privilege to sit with people in their grief — not only the grief that comes with bereavement, but also the quieter, often hidden grief of losing parts of ourselves. So many arrive carrying the pain of what has been shut down through shame, neglect, or trauma — emotions unfelt, voices unheard, soul aspects pushed aside in order to survive

Grief is not linear, and it doesn’t only belong to loss of others. It lives in the body as numbness, anxiety, disconnection, and sometimes a sense of not quite being “here.” This is where homeopathy can offer something gentle yet profound.
Through carefully chosen remedies — whether it’s Ignatia for acute grief, Natrum muriaticum for held, silent sorrow, or trauma remedies such as Arnica — we begin to support the nervous system in softening. In this space, dissociation can begin to ease, and those fragmented parts of self can feel safe enough to return.

I often think of the daisy family of plants ( Arnica, Calendula, Echinacea) when working in this way 🌼 Each petal like a fragment of the self — separate, protective, carrying its own story — yet all belonging to one whole. Homeopathy supports the remembering of that wholeness, allowing the petals to gently come back into relationship with the centre.

This work is tender. It asks for patience, compassion, and deep listening — but it also carries the possibility of reconnection, of coming home to oneself piece by piece.
Thank you to everyone who came and allowed me to walk alongside you, even for a moment, in your journey 🙏💛
With gratitude also to Hannah of Graceful Dawn Myrraphore for holding such a steady, loving presence and supporting the flow of the clinic so beautifully with much needed hugs and cups of tea.

🌿 Our Community Homeopathy Clinics continue to be held in the peaceful rooms above the White Rabbit Shop on Glastonbury High Street.

Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease (HFMD) is a common viral illness that can be distressing for both children and parents. Characterized by painful sores in the mouth and blisters on the hands and feet, it’s typically caused by a group of viruses known as enteroviruses, most commonly Coxsackievirus.

HFMD mostly affects infants and young children, but older children and even adults can occasionally contract it. While the illness usually resolves on its own within 7–10 days, homeopathy offers gentle, supportive care to relieve discomfort and help the body heal naturally.

In a world that keeps us constantly switched on, one of the most powerful ways to support our hormonal health is beautifully simple: reconnect with nature 🌿🌸

Yesterday I went for a lovely walk somewhere I'd never been before which I discovered in a book called the Wild Guide to Devon, Cornwall and the Southwest : St Michael's Hill near Montacute House in Somerset. It was lovely to see spring flowers and be in the woodland filled with birdsong and wild garlic, primroses and wild violets.

Did you know that getting out into nature, getting sunlight and connecting with nature and each other is essential for our hormonal health?

When we spend time outdoors—feeling the sun on our skin, breathing fresh air, and slowing down—we help regulate our body’s stress response. This directly impacts hormones like cortisol (our main stress hormone) and DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone)—a vital hormone that supports resilience, energy, mood, and overall hormonal balance.

DHEA is the precursor to most of our s*x hormones - oestrogen, progesterone and testosterone. The keys to the production of DHEA are:
sleep😴, exercise 🚶‍♀️‍➡️sunlight 🌞and connection💚.

DHEA is often called a “buffer” to stress. When we’re under constant pressure, cortisol levels can stay high and DHEA can become depleted. But time in nature has been shown to calm the nervous system, helping to lower cortisol and support healthier DHEA levels—bringing the body back into balance.

This balance between cortisol and DHEA is key. When it’s in sync, we tend to feel more energised, sleep better, think more clearly, and cope with life’s challenges more easily.

Stepping outside, even for a short walk, can make a difference. It’s not just about exercise—it’s about grounding, resetting, and reconnecting with the environment our bodies were designed for.
So whether it’s a walk in the woods, sitting by the sea, or simply taking a few deep breaths in your garden, give yourself that time 🌱
Your hormones—including DHEA—will thank you.

Homeopathy for Teething😬🦷😭

Teething is a significant milestone in your child’s development, with the average age for it to begin being around six months. For some children, teeth emerge with very little discomfort. However, for others, the process can be slow, painful, and distressing—for both child and parent.

If your child’s teething is particularly difficult or prolonged, it may be helpful to consult a professional homeopath, as constitutional remedies tailored to your child’s individual needs might be required.

In the meantime, there are several acute homeopathic remedies that may help ease common teething symptoms such as pain, fever, irritability, and excessive salivation.
