Alize Timmerman brings to homeopathy knowledge and inspiration she draws from many disciplines, including art and literature as well as the natural and social sciences. Among the sources that stimulate her interest is the analytical psychology of Carl Jung and his followers.

Jung's model for the evolution of consciousness has helped Alize understand a group of patients that share a common characteristic: a wish to retrieve or recreate an idealized Eden-like state. They resist dealing with the psychological challenges and spiritual conflicts that are necessary for normal development. She believes that neuroses and addictions to drugs, issues of bulimia and anorexia, and dependence on religious and political ideologies can be explained as nostalgia for an original state of perfection in which there is no suffering.

Since ancient times the Doctrine of Signatures (DOS) has been known about. Paracelsus said "You bring together the same anatomy of the herb and the same anatomy of the origin- and that is the beginning" Of course Paracelsus was one of the foundational blocks that helped Samuel Hahnemann create Homeopathy.

Hahnemann said "Nature has provided (by Divine Providence) the means for mankind to cure all its ills and it is for man to seek out these means" 

However Hahnemann was lukewarm, at best, about DOS. One must take into account that historically speaking, in Hahneman’s day, herbalists had little else to go by to figure out WHAT a herb was good for. The only way was by word of mouth and sparsely written herbal lore.

As a homeopath, I had seen from time to time in my office, while taking a client's case, that I would suddenly "know" the remedy.  I would know it with a clarity and sureness that always left me breathless.  Funny thing happened, though, after I had that "aha!"  My client started to feel better during the continued case taking--and I had not mentioned the remedy nor given it to them.  And their eyes would begin to clear (always an indicator I saw when the correct remedy was given), or their skin tone and color would change and look healthier.

As a shaman, I recognize that our thoughts, literally, do have 'wings'.  A thought is nothing more than a conglomeration of energy that is gathered because we wanted it to be so.  Very magical to many, but from my standpoint, a common, every day realization.  Any time we think or feel something, energy gathers as a result. For every action (thought/feeling) there is an opposite and equal reaction.  Only the reaction is in the invisible world around us.  Just because we can't see it doesn't mean it isn't there--because it is.
