that in a healthy person would produce symptoms of disease -
Perhaps part of the misunderstanding and confusion surrounding homeopathy is that we didn't/don't have language yet to discuss energetic medicine -- maybe that's the next phase of the work begun by the Drs. Hahnemann and Bach (of flower essence fame)
Homeopathy's basic premise is simple: 1. like treats like - 2. less is more ...
Simplistically speaking, then, if you have measles, then your remedy is measles -
this jumpstarts the body's healing mechanisms against measles -
while it may sound 'out there' in fact like treats like is the basis for vaccinations -
unfortunately the less is more part got lost in translation
and imo feeds the present controversy and dangers surrounding vaccinations ...
ime, it is unsound medicine to separate like treats like from less is more ...
as for homeopathic healing, here is another way to approach understanding how it works ...
when on break, most folks refresh themselves by sipping their cuppa ...
that's what homeopathy is: healing borne in sips (drops, tiny pellets, etc.)
Homeopathy says, that you don't have to swim in it - just sip -
that the body is smart enough to recognize healing in any form
