Looking back on the beginning days of my homeopathic training and comparing to where I find myself now, several stages of development enfolding over the years become apparent. Most likely it is an evolution all homeopaths live through and from hindsight one has an overview of the journey. It then […]
No matter how extended and sophisticated our software programs and how up-to-date our analyzing method, the crucial point stays: how to elicit the information we need from the patient. It is done in the past with questionaires, with particular questions to clarify the CC , gather modalities, generalities and possibly […]
Another group we haven’t discussed yet, and by its very nature easily overlooked, is the Organic Carbon group. Although Roger Morrison’s book on Carbons was first released in 2006 and still is the best source of information, while supervising homeopaths or helping them out with their difficult cases, I noticed […]

Most likely many homeopaths with long-term practices come to the same conclusion: our patients are not the same as the patients we saw at the beginning of our career some 25 -30 years ago. Our cases are more complex and we have to adjust the way we deal with them. […]
Seven years have passed since in the fall of 2009 I realized I could foresee the similimum of people. It was as if a door opened in my consciousness through which I could glimpse. It doesn’t matter whether people already contacted me or used their real name or an alias. […]
