When life’s challenges lead to profound emotional distress, homeopathy offers a compassionate remedy to help navigate the waves of sorrow. From the depths of grief to moments of overwhelming nostalgia, each individual experiences sadness in a unique way. In this post, we’ll explore various homeopathic remedies based on characteristic symptoms, drawing from BOUKO LEVY M.’s comprehensive Homeopathic and Drainage Repertory.
Understanding Homeopathy for Emotional Woes
Homeopathy operates on the principle of “like cures like.” This means that a substance that causes symptoms in a healthy person can, in small doses, treat similar symptoms in someone who is unwell. For emotional challenges such as grief or betrayal, high potencies are often advised. Potencies of 9C, 200C, or even higher can be used, tailored to fit the individual’s mental picture.
In instances following a significant shock, such as a bereavement, it is recommended to start with a dose each day, gradually increasing the potency—like moving from 9C to 12C, then to 15C, and lastly reaching 30C. This approach allows for a gradual healing process, honoring the emotional journey of the individual.
