I found homeopathy when I started developing the dreaded dry eye syndrome and my mom recommended some homeopathic eye drops to me.

That little homeopathic bottle was the first time I consciously thought of the word "homeopathic." It ended up helping my dry eyes, which, of course, made me curious to learn more.

I ended up finding a book my mother-in-law had given me when I first had babies—Homeopathic Medicine for Children and Infants—a book I’m sorry to say I hadn't actually used or even started reading yet.

My son had been struggling with recurrent strep, and nothing else seemed to be working. I decided to skim this book and maybe try one of these remedies. I could get a small set of the top 30 remedies off Amazon pretty quickly...but, Ipecac? Belladonna? These are scary substances, right? (Little did I know belladonna was already in my homeopathic eye drops). I had no idea what they would do, but I might as well try? They said it was safe...? I began looking at my son’s symptoms, found a remedy that matched his picture, and watched him get better.

What?!

I'd barely heard of homeopathy before, and always considered it synonymous to naturopathy or herbalism. But neither of those had helped his strep, or my eyes.

Two years earlier, I'd worked with a naturopath—and still do!—who helped me recover from mold illness. What I didn't realize was that she had actually given me a mold nosode—a homeopathic preparation made from mold—to stimulate my body to heal the mold. The supplements she had given me (of which I had assumed this nosode was a "supplement") had supported my body along the way.

After all that mold healing, I still struggled with long time adrenal fatigue and post mold fight or flight responses.

Once I started researching more, the algorithm—not shockingly—started showing me homeopaths...so I started following a whole variety of them and listening to their podcasts.

At this point, I was just so hungry to continue healing myself and any acute issues my family might deal with, like the common cold or flu here and there. I didn't realize yet that we could heal such chronic issues like longtime adrenal fatigue. I just felt like this was my lot in life.

I started hearing about this one remedy that deals with people who have struggled with adrenal fatigue, never well since mono, always gets sick when anything is going around, perfectionists, love thunderstorms and chocolate and butter (what? Those things point toward a remedy?), Then, the lovely Melissa Kupsch, @thathomeopath, opened up a practitioners course, and I just knew in my spirit that this was for me. Becoming a homeopath mixed all the skills and passions I had developed over the years, and it would be such a natural transition.

So, my husband and I agreed to move forward with it, and then to do the full Advanced Practitioner training.

But, what about that adrenal fatigue I mentioned? Oh yes. As I was studying to become a practitioner, I ended up getting my hands on that one highly indicated remedy from above, and within in ONE month on the RIGHT POTENCY of said remedy, it took my adrenal function from hovering in the mid 40th percentile to 80% in one month. THAT. WAS. INSANE. I'd struggled with adrenal fatigue for 28 years, and poof, one month later...almost normal adrenal function.

So, now here I am, healed from mold, 28 year adrenal fatigue, insane environmental allergies, and heavy periods...ready to help you and yours as well.

Not all healing journeys look the same, but I look forward to working with you and being a part of your journey.
