THE POWER OF 3

As I embark upon my natural health career, I search for remedies that assist our bodies in a healing response without hindering the gentle balance and flow.  Our bodies are a constant seeker of BALANCE.  It supplies hormones, enzymes, and a host of other molecules and chemicals dedicated to the sole purpose of maintaining a state of balance in every component.

Blood pH, blood sugar balance, calcium levels, fluid levels, acid-base balance…the list is endless.  When one aspect shifts, even in micro amounts, the body rushes to bring it back to balance, or a state of homeostasis.  The body is not a respecter of persons.  It will rob from Peter to pay Paul.  For example, your body will steal calcium from your bones to supply your blood with extra calcium when levels are low.  This “bone theft” leads to a host of diseases over time if not properly cared for.

Treat the person, not the illness!

Homeopathy comprises a natural health alternative to assist your body in achieving balance by jump starting the healing process.  Homeopathic remedies are tinctures comprised of herbs, minerals, or animal products.  The remedy is diluted to minimal doses, as the smaller the dose the more potent the treatment.

The  mechanism of homeopathic remedies in the body work in opposition to drugs.  In contrast with pharmaceuticals, homeopathic remedies do not suppress your symptoms.  They act as catalysts for the innate healing response of the body.

A homeopath will catalog your symptoms, not to diagnose, but to determine the exact remedy designed to supercharge your body into balance.  These symptoms or habits may include everything from pains in your body to the way your foot feels hot at certain times of the day.  It sounds foolish, but as I have stated, your body is fully CONNECTED.  Remember the power of 3.  Everything you experience or feel represents a clue to aid you in your quest for wholeness.

Three different people may exhibit the same symptom, yet those three people may be prescribed a different remedy.  Why?  Because the remedy has less to do with your specific ailment and more to do with who you are, your temperament, your specific inner workings, etc.
