Thank you for Not Smoking: Remedies to Quit the Habit

Smoking is addictive and affects every part of your body, your appearance and your mood. We all know this. It weakens the immune system and can lead to lung and heart diseases. It harms the brain and endangers the fetus in pregnant women.

Yet nicotine has a calming pleasurable effect, which makes smoking hard to stop for those who have made it a habit.

E-cigarettes, used by many young people, are not the safe alternative to traditional cigarettes that they have been advertised to be. While the aerosol inhaled does not contain all the toxins in tobacco smoke, the e-cigarette still delivers nicotine which is highly addictive. The vapor also contains heavy metals which adversely affect users and those nearby.

Homeopathy offers a natural way to quit.

Tabacum and Avena satt reduce reaction to the addictive nature of smoking.

Other useful remedies include Camphor, Nux vomica and Caladium.

All the above can be given daily up to three times in a low potency.

Avena satt often comes in liquid form. Give 5 drops in filtered lukewarm filtered water, three times a day.

The Sacred Space Between the Logs

When I slow down and be here now, there is space and time. I breathe in and out a bright serenity. Meditation does this, creating a distance from the monkey mind of superficials that crowd the day, offering a breathing place.

As poet Judy Brown writes:

What makes a fire burn is the space between the logs. A fire breathes – and blazes.

Building a fire, Alex showed me how to tee-pee the logs. Donna laid them perpendicular. When I light it, my fire snaps and hisses. After a time, it stretches, sighs happily and spouts warmth and light.

When a homeopathic remedy works on an emotional level, it creates a gap between me and my usual reaction to a problem. Whatever it is – anger at a biting remark, disappointment because I expected something that didn’t fly, sadness at the loss of a loved one – in the sacred lull, I find a higher me. I look at the trouble from the outside. I observe; I don’t judge. I sense how I feel. By simply looking at it, the problem doesn’t matter as much as it used to. I am detached, as if I pressed a pause button.

I am learning that this space is always there inside, a bird in my heart that welcomes me in her soft nest, covers me with feathered wings, murmurs: ‘There, there, it’s OK’.

If you seek a natural solution to an emotional problem – or a physical one – get in touch for a free chat. Tell me what’s bothering you most. I will tell you how a remedy can reduce and eliminate pain, can remind you how to pause and be open to what comes.

Suppress and Drive Deeper; why homeopathy welcomes Redbeard

Say someone has an itchy skin rash on her chin. Wearing a mask covers it up. But she still looks like Redbeard when the mask comes off. After a visit to the doctor, her rash disappears because she rubbed on the prescribed steroidal cream. Tra la, she’s cured! A few months later her stomach begins acting up; problems with digestion – intestinal cramps, bloating and gas, heartburn after eating. This prompts a second doctor’s visit for an antacid.

We all know environmental pollutants can poison the ‘tank’ that we swim in. Airborne and waterborne chemicals, metals in our buildings and in the products we use, chemicals in what we eat and drink, loud or repetitive noises, electromagnetic radiation from phones, 5G WIFI, smart meters… etc, etc, etc – if you are sensitive to these irritants, read on.
