It seems that there is no time of year that’s safe from the possibility of a runny nose – at least not here in the great state of Kentucky! That’s reason enough for me to carry homeopathic Ambrosia with me everywhere. It’s arguably most effective in the spring and summer to combat the presence of pollen allergens that hang heavy in the air and leave a yellow dusty coat on anything that stands still for more than 5 minutes, but for my family and me it’s also effective against the runny noses that hang around at the end of a head cold or appear after inhaling the dust of spring cleaning in the barn.

Our beloved Ambrosia artemiseafolia 30c is made from the humble ragweed. Isn’t it nice that there’s a positive reason for that plant to exist? That’s one of the things I love about homeopathy; even toxins, irritants, and weeds have the power to heal in this incredible system of medicine. As my mentor, Joette, often says, “this is truly God’s medicine.”

If you’ve ever had altitude sickness, you’ll not soon forget how it feels. Disorientation, nausea, vertigo or dizziness, sudden fatigue, headache, feeling breathless…it can show up in multiple ways – all unpleasant. We often think of altitude sickness occurring on high mountain peaks, but it can also happen in an airplane or in any situation in which you ascend thousands of feet in a short amount of time.

One of the best remedies for altitude sickness is “Altitude” from Helios Homeopathic Pharmacy in England. It’s not the only one, but it’s a great choice because it’s a single remedy that’s simple and effective for the situation, no matter which symptoms are presenting.

It’s also a great choice for a few other conditions as well, such as nervous exhaustion, formication (“crawling” sensation on the skin), and vocal strain. That’s the beauty of homeopathic remedies – they’re seldom only good for one thing!

This is the first episode in a series highlighting homeopathic remedies I carry with me all the time. There are almost 50, so it will take a while to complete!

First up are Aconitum napellus 200c and its close relative, the combo remedy of Aconitum 200c + Bryonia 30c, currently only available through OHM Pharma in Texas – contact me for info on how to order.

Aconitum 200c is our premiere shock remedy. I’ve written and spoken about it before, and there’s lots of great information available about it from other sources as well. When I’m out and about and carrying my whole kit isn’t possible, Aconitum is one of the two remedies that will still be with me in my purse or pocket. It shines brightest when it can be used immediately for an event, accident, attack, or illness that happens suddenly and even violently. It’s the #1 remedy for PTSD and panic attacks, and I don’t ever want to be caught without it.

Once, early in my homeopathy journey, I was in a situation where I needed Aconitum and didn’t have it. I was kicking myself, but then someone I didn’t even know appeared at my elbow with a little purple tube of Aconitum 200c! The rest of what happened is another story, but suffice it to say the Aconitum saved the day and I made a friend that I cherish greatly.

Aconitum can certainly stand alone, but in combination with Bryonia it’s an effective way for many people to nip a bad cold or flu in the bud. If you catch the symptoms right as they begin to show – you know, the tightness in the shoulders, the slight ache in the chest, the tickle in the throat, the sudden nasal congestion – and take the remedy every two hours or so for the rest of the day (whenever the symptoms return) it can make the difference between being flat on your back and being only slightly bothered.

Yeah, that one stays with me in the car and in my luggage wherever I go. Wouldn’t you take it with you if you knew, like I do, that it would help you avoid the worst symptoms of colds and flu, without any of the negative side effects of conventional medications?

Shingles are super useful on the roof, but they’re incredibly painful and even dangerous on our bodies. I’m not here to discuss the shingles (or any other) vaccine or the suppressive medications used to treat an outbreak; rather I want to let you know that a safe, gentle, and effective alternative to conventional treatment exists and allow you to make your own, informed choice about the path that’s right for you.

Homeopathic treatment options for shingles vary somewhat based on how the outbreak presents in each person, but there are a few remedies that almost always make it into the mix, such as Antimonium crudum 6c, Hypericum perforatum 200c, Belladonna 3c, and Vaccininum 15c (sometimes it’s only available in 30c or other potencies, and that’s OK too).

Because homeopathy works with the body rather than on it, keen observation of symptoms and matching remedies to their frequency and severity is the key to success. We generally choose Antimonium crudum for the rash, Hypericum for the pain, Belladonna for fever, and Vaccininum for the underlying pathology itself, and we would probably take each of those remedies twice daily until the symptoms they address begin to fade. As symptoms back off, so do we, until no remedies are needed and the condition is resolved.

No side effects. Conditions resolved. Illnesses uprooted. No continuation needed. Y’all, this is the medicine we thought we were getting all along!
