It’s rare for me to get a testimonial from my almost-never-unwell husband, but here’s what he posted last night on his FB feed (and is happy for me to share with you):

“Sarah Whittaker Phoenix Homeopathy Ltd your treatment of my bad back earlier really has made a difference, it's feeling so much better. Thanks love! X”

Having refused my offer of help the day before, when he started getting back pain (husbands, eh? 🙄😂), and been checked out by the GP to rule out a kidney stone (it was that painful), Paul came home from work yesterday grimacing and crying out from pain on the slightest twisting movement, the pain etched on his face.

Tending to be a no-nonsense and practical person, he was (understandably) extremely grumpy and irritable from the pain, wanted to be left alone to sit still, and didn’t want to talk or be bothered with answering my questions about the pain.

All keynotes of Bryonia, which (together with two belt-and-braces homeobotanical blends - one for pain, and one for the tissue injury) quickly did the trick and got him out of pain.

So I suspect this is going to be one of my favourite testimonials! 😂

Note: Bryonia may not be the remedy for your back pain, as homeopathic remedies are individually chosen to suit each person. It’s important to consult a qualified homeopath for an individualised assessment, and appropriate remedy selection. A homeopath will consider the complete symptom picture, medical history and other factors, to provide the most suitable treatment approach.

If you need help, you’re welcome to arrange to speak to me. I offer online consultations anywhere in the world.

Food for thought. https://www.pcrm.org/news/health-nutrition/vegetarian-diets-protective-against-covid-19?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR1hEB-mb5yDDKCd6Wu0qbRvp6clo1SXklEDPJpGgVV70Cpql2q1OAviJT4_aem_xI3pNYUj1pzjyb4HrJmAnw

A vegetarian diet is associated with 39% lower odds of contracting COVID-19, according to new research published in BMJ Nutrition Prevention & Health. The findings come from Brazil, during the third COVID-19 wave, March to July 2022.

After a fabulous little add-on training, I’m so delighted to be able to offer HomeoHerbal Therapy to my clients now, alongside my longstanding therapies of Homeopathy, Australian Bush Flower Essences, and Homeobotanicals. Yay!

Checking some research in the garden, to get some sunshine. My office assistant isn’t helping much, tbh. I need that iPad. 😂

I grew up on a sheep dairy farm where homeopathy was used for the ewes’ mastitis, as well as to help a farm dog scared of loud noises, so I’m fascinated by the use of homeopathy in agriecology.

Bear in mind that the Sulphur 30c and the Calc Carb 30c (this potency is called CH in the study) was diluted and succussed (agitated in a special way) 1:100 thirty times.

This potency - frequently used for my clients - is diluted well beyond Avogadro’s number, so it’s unlikely to have a single molecule of the original substance remaining.

It’s not actual magic, but it feels like magic. 😂

And this, my friends, is what homeopathy’s really about. Folks like you come because they have a physical or emotional thing going on that’s too much. Helping them sort that out is super-important, but the real work’s all about helping you self-heal on a deeper level, and get back into a healthier balance, physically and emotionally. First, we identify what’s really wrong, deep down, then together we figure out how to help you feel better. Your system has an amazing ability to self-heal - isn’t that amazing?!

So, it’s no looker, and the wholemeal pastry is a bit thick, but with a heap of determination and some practical help (because, well, 30 years of progressive MS does present challenges), here’s what the quinces and cobnuts in the previous post turned into. It tastes better than it looks. 😂 It was way too much faff to ever attempt again - seriously, shelling the cobnuts, peeling and cutting up those rock hard quinces (husband helped), poaching AND roasting the quinces, three baking stages just to blind bake the tart case, making crumble - it went on forever!). Not quitting when it was so physically difficult led me to think about how homeopathy has helped me maintain a can-do attitude in the face of so many health-related practical challenges. It’s no secret that I have two progressive neurological conditions, a benign hormone-havoc-inducing pituitary tumour, osteoporosis, a spinal/pelvic injury, lipedema and arthritis. Which tbh is a lot, and believe me, I have the occasional very brief pity party - that’s only natural. But, as I learned in my first term at homeopathy college over 20 years ago, health is about adaptability. We can’t control what life chucks at us, but we CAN choose how we view it, adapt to it, and continue to make meaning for our lives. I’m confident that homeopathy has helped me do this, and continues to do so. If you know someone struggling with what’s going on for them, whether physical or emotional, a good homeopath might well be able to help.

Thanks to organic veg box company , I’m revisiting flavours from my Kentish childhood: cobnuts and quinces, both of which grew in the garden where I grew up. I’m thinking some kind of quince crumble tart, maybe, with poached and roasted quinces nestling in a crumble made with ground-up cob nuts?

Year after year, clients return for a bespoke package of natural homeopathic winter wellness homeopathic remedies - for which no medical claims are ever made (responsible ex-lawyer here!). It’s important to note that these complementary (not alternative) remedies most definitely aren’t a replacement for conventional treatment like immunisations, or for any other medical advice, and they’re only available to my registered clients after a full consultation, as I need to assess your whole case, your vitality, your suitability for them and tweak the combinations to suit you perfectly. They come with full written instructions emailed in PDF format, and one pack is enough for one adult to cover the whole season until early Spring. Who’s in? 🙋🏻‍♀️

So sad to learn from the BBC’s Panorama that 23% of women in the UK are now taking prescribed antidepressants. My clients know I’m no extremist, and I’m not anti-medicine per se (though as regards my own health, I view meds absolutely as a measure of last resort), but this feels very concerning indeed.

Hoping your animal companions are as relaxed tonight (Bonfire Night 2022) as Reggie here, very chilled despite the noise, after his homeopathic anti-anxiety remedy.

Not being a vet, I can’t treat animals, but it can be legal for owners to give homeopathic remedies to their own animals, and of course, I treat human clients who come to me with all sorts of physical and mental-emotional issues, including anxiety.
