Living in rural SW Colorado, homeopathic remedies fit seamlessly into my daily country life. There’s a remedy for all that ails us – even for our fur babies!
I began my homeopathy journey over 25 years ago, shortly after the birth of my first daughter. My mother gave me a remedy kit, along with Robin Murphy’s Repertory and Lotus Materia Medica. I was fresh off a negative experience with antibiotics and my baby – thanks to a nighttime trip to urgent care with an inconsolable child. Yes, Chamomilla eased her many times after that episode and, because I could put her down, it helped us both to get some much-needed rest. I didn’t like how nonchalantly the doctors prescribed medication, and I was determined to take my family’s health into my own hands. I think that’s one of the best things about homeopathy – how it empowers people with tools for optimizing their health and caring for their families. As a young mother who lived in an isolated mountain town, it provided me with an affordable and accessible means for addressing my children’s needs. I learned everything I could. And what a relief that I didn’t have to force my little ones to take the sweet pellets! Fast forward through three daughters and countless remedies that addressed their physical and emotional concerns. Gelsemium did wonders for my youngest’s butterflies before volleyball try-outs, plus we went through a lot of Arnica during the season. Antibiotics were a rare need in our household, and I know that my children’s health, especially their gut biome, is better for it.
