Do you enjoy singing along to music? I do, especially to songs I know and love. And which line do you sing? The tune? Do you pick out the really high voice? Do you go for the middle harmonies? Or do you follow the bottom line? I’ve always been a harmony girl, sitting in the middle, picking out the scrunchy chords which weave in and out and make the tune more interesting. Until recently, when I’ve noticed I’m being increasingly drawn to the lowest voice. Now isn’t that inte

The other day someone asked me what made me become a homeopath. I had to think very hard! I could easily talk about my first encounter with homeopathy, but what had made me take the next step?

When I offered a free webinar for anyone interested to find out more about homeopathy I didn’t anticipate being the one doing the learning! Here’s what happened. I was zoom bombed! Who even knew there was such a thing! I’d set it up as a public event on Eventbrite: I WANTED it to be found and accessible to everyone. And people I didn’t know signed up!

A look at some of the reasons which have led people to seeking homeopathic treatment for the first time.An exploration of what makes people choose homeopathic treatmentI was very lucky: my first encounter with homeopathy was through my GP who suggested it as an alternative to antibiotics for the recurrent chronic sinusitis from which I was suffering. It was handed to me on a plate, no internet searching for alternatives, a simple choice for me to make at my time of need. Most

How a chronic sinus infection led to a chance encounter with homeopathy thanks to a homeopathic GPMy first encounter with homeopathyI was very unwell with a chronic sinus infection. It wasn’t in the sinuses above or below the eyes which make the face tender, it was in the sinuses which are right behind the root of your nose, the ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses. These can be quite tricky to diagnose because the mucus from these clears down the throat, so nothing blows out of the
