1M: a Homeopath's PodcastInsights from Kent's Lectures on Homeopathic Philosophy (S2021)Hey everyone! It’s great to be back, recording a new episode of 1M: a Homeopath’s Podcast. It was great to have a reprieve from the monthly episodes- summer was full of great stuff both homeopathy oriented and just life here in Maine ,which is just about perfect this time of year. Some fun serendipity is that we adopted a new puppy into our family and we actually went out to Chicago to pick her up. We went in June, just after I launched the summer bookclub reading Kent’s Lectures, and there...

Today’s guest, Shilpa Bhouraskar, was one of the first on my list. I had been following Shilpa’s blog and trainings through Homeoquest for a couple of years, and was impressed with the range of trainings she offered from teachers around the world, as well as her own writing and video tutorials. I reached out to Shilpa and she graciously made time in her busy schedule and we recorded this interview over...

2017-05-1805 min1M: a Homeopath's PodcastCase Inventory, Part 1 or.. Level up your practice homeopathically! (S2018)I believe the most effective study and training we can do is homeopathic to our own needs. But how do we figure out what our needs are- homeopathically- for our own skills and practice to progress? This episode- on doing a Case Inventory- is one step I’m taking to answer that question. This is where I remind you that way back in that first episode of the podcast I likened these shows to inviting you into my studio where everything is in progress and a mess- and not my gallery where the fi...

(S2017)Roger and I connected in March and went through 2 cases, S2014 was the first one: The Case of the Restless Child, # 313. Today I’m presenting the second case we talked through that evening, #262, which I am calling ‘Sinus Attack’ for reasons which should be obvious.

I have included the text of the case below, but you can find it here on Roger...

This is a special episode of 1M…. About a month or so ago, I stumbled upon the website for Homeopathy-One, which I learned is a joint effort of Rajan Sankaran and Frederick Schroyens, who you likely know as the heads of two of homeopathy’s largest software companies that offer competing products: MacRepertory and RadarOpus respectively. Together, however, they have co-founded this new non-profit , Homeopathy-One. Their website introduces their mission, whose ‘sole purpose is to unite and strength...
2017-04-1458 min1M: a Homeopath's PodcastThe Wisdom of C.M Boger and Taking the Case (S2015)This is Episode 15, and today in our journey of learning through failure, I’m diving into case-taking. If you think about it, what we do as homeopaths when taking a case is different than any other holistic or medical practice. Like doctors, we want to know about the body- was ails it, what makes it better or worse, the quality of the pain, when it started, what started it, the medical history, effects of medications and so on. Unlike a doctor, we care about *all* the physical symptoms, not just the ones that ai...

If you missed our first round, this is a regular monthly component where Roger Van Zandvoort of Complete Dynamics and I look at a case from his Clinical Case Comparison Project. Roger chooses cases from the old Homeopathic Recorder Journal issues, and enhances his repertory by making sure the remedies in those cured cases are represented under their corresponding rubrics. In this way, he is expanding the CD repertory, and small and lesser known remedies are better represented and more likely to come up- all from r...

As well as being a long-time homeopathic educator, she is the creator of The Vital Approach. In thinking about guests to have this year as I explore the theme of learning through our failures, I considered homeopaths who have been innovative in their approach. I believe that innovation and experimentation are the cousins of failure, because when we...
