Tiburon, California, November, 2004

The different levels of illness and disease and the various levels of healing that must occur before cure can be found. This is one the best descriptions of the higher trituration processes and the reasoning behind this development.

HOMEOPATHY FROM THE HEART – REMEDIES FOR THE END OF LIFE

Berkeley California, December 2004

A wonderful seminar describing in depth those remedies which aid people at the end of life. The seminar explains much about how to conceive of the dying process and how homeopathic remedies can be used to ease the process not only for the dying patient, but also for the loved ones. One long term case is particularly striking because it highlights the various stages of the dying process and pinpoints the specific remedies that belong to these stages.
