Sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction!

Hi everyone

When I was reading the local paper the other day I came across the lovely story of a lady who had donated a mirror to a charity shop up country. Later on, once she had moved house and county, she realised that she missed having that particular mirror and so began looking for a replacement. The strange thing is that after a prolonged search she found just the thing...............her original mirror in a charity shop near her new home. She knew it was her mirror because it was engraved with initials personal to her. How surprising is that! You wouldn't have expected such a thing could happen.
People's experience of ill health can also sometimes be surprising but more often than not homeopaths can match these descriptions of ill health to particular remedy pictures. For example Cimicifuga is a homeopathic medicine and when healthy people have taken it (in order to test it out) they describe feeling trapped, as if entwined in barbed wire! Perhaps it sounds a little strange but it is in fact a sensation that I have heard expressed in a consultation.  A very real sensation for the person experiencing it. Giving homeopathic Cimicifuga helped the person move through what was a dark period in their life and the sensation disappeared. Indeed truth can be stranger than fiction, we couldn't make it up!

Have a great week!

How do you feel?

Hi everyone

I woke up grumpy and tired this morning, which isn't really like me! So I took myself away to my usual weekly keep fit session, which I have in fact missed for the last two weeks, in the hope that I would feel better and I do!!
The exercise and the friendliness of the group both helped me to come back home in a happier, healthier frame of mind.

I am glad that I took the oppurtunity to get out and about this morning as it would have been quite easy to have had a duvet morning! The lesson for me is that bodies not only need rest but also timely exercise and mine needed to get back in to the swing after missing two weeks. Maintaining good health is about listening to what our
bodies need and responding accordingly, sometimes rest is the best medicine, sometimes the best tonic is a good workout, the tricky bit is not getting the messages confused!


Have a great week!
