Homeopathy for Head Injuries: A Pathway to Healing
Head injuries can really change a person’s life. According to the CDC, over 1.5 million people the United States alone experience a traumatic brain injury (TBI) every year. About 75% of them have a “mild” traumatic brain injury (MTBI), commonly known as concussions. Don’t let the term “mild” fool you though, as they can have significant consequences, leaving people with lasting impairments and disabilities. The severity of a head injury can be classified as mild, moderate, or severe depending on the symptoms and how serious it is. The most common causes of head injuries are falls, motor vehicle accidents, and sports-related incidents. Head injuries can have lasting effects on individuals in the long term. Depending on the severity and location of the injury, there are various ways in which these effects may show up. Cognitive abilities can be affected, leading to issues like memory loss, difficulty concentrating, or slower thinking. Emotional and behavioral changes are also common, such as mood swings, feelings of depression or anxiety, and increased irritability. Physical symptoms like persistent headaches, dizziness, and problems with balance may persist. In some cases, individuals may develop neurological disorders or experience difficulties with motor skills, coordination, or speech.
Homeopathy for Acute Allergies
April showers bring May flowers and often the uncomfortable symptoms of seasonal allergies. Instead of reaching for over-the-counter antihistamines, get to the root of the problem by choosing a homeopathic medicine instead.

The Essence of Chocolate
Chocolate. Silky, smooth, soothing, and delicious. Bitter and dark, sweet or made with milk. Truffles, tarts, cake, bars, candies, sauce, fondue, syrup, cookies, and the list goes on.

Around the world, 7.5 million tons of chocolate were consumed in 2022, and the demand is growing. In the United States, 58 million pounds of chocolate are purchased during the week before Valentine’s Day each year, including about 36 million heart-shaped boxes of chocolate. This holiday celebrates love. And chocolate is a symbol of love. As a delicious treat, chocolate is loved by many. In some, the desire for chocolate can be an overpowering addiction.

The Vital Force
The Vital Force is the unseen animating force that brings life to the body, maintaining a state of homeostasis and doing all the ridiculously complicated life processes behind the scenes while we go about our day. This force clearly possesses a certain level of intelligence (although likely not an intellect, as it were) and is autonomous in relation to our conscious mind, although being embedded within the same system, is undeniably influenced by, and influences, that system as a whole.
