Potency is a little understood but important aspect of homeopathy and in recent weeks has come under scrutiny in the media, with a certain lack of understanding displayed by the journalist in question. Some of you will have seen the item in the media about “children dying after taking homeopathic remedies”. The product in question…
The past few months have been steeped in grief and loss on so many levels for so many people. While there has been heartbreak of an acute nature – the loss of a child, a parent or a friend, or the loss of a child yet to arrive with us – there has been a…
Tasmania seems to be the world centre for camping and bushwalking and of course it happens not just here, but all over the country and all over the world! Every holidays, come rain or shine, families go away camping and walking and of course many tourists arrive who love to do the same thing. Every…
Contingency Planning I started this blog sitting in the dark, luckily with a fully charged tablet, in the midst of a power outage. Fortunately, the weather has not been as torrid as in other parts of the country but it does provide time to reflect on life. We’re used to power outages in Southern Tasmania.…

Someone asked me the other day if I had any information on using homeopathy with babies and, in particular, newborns.
