Description
2 sessions – 4 CPD/CPE points
Colin Griffith presents two fascinating sessions with the overarching theme of helping our patients rediscover their autonomy through a thorough understanding of their pathology, trauma and miasmatic history, social and familial context and their determination to go on a healing journey.
The driving force of this journey is to place the patient, not in a portrait gallery of remedies, but in the open field of their personal life that includes anything that might take them off their soul’s original chosen route.
For the practitioner this is a journey away from the academic and routine, towards flexing intuitive muscles to understand as much as possible that is hidden, obscure (up until now), misinterpreted and ignored. As much about empowering the patient, this is also an experiment in fostering intuitive perception – to help practitioners avoid the pitfalls of common expectations and offer us insights otherwise held in perpetual shadow.
In the first session Colin takes us well beyond the usual remedies associated with disempowerment, such as Staphysagria and Carcinosinum, to explore the historical depths of this extremely common problem. With case examples and an in depth look at some new remedies we explore ‘disempowerment’ as if it were a beacon of change.
In the second session Colin guides us through the myriad ways in which our lives are affected by toxicity – chemical, medical, radioactive, electrical and psychic. We look beyond Sulphur, Nux Vomica and Phosphorus and learn new remedies that can refine the process of elimination: Shungite, Rainwater and Wych Elm (Ulmus Glabra).
