Re: Online Schools ?
Well, with the F series, I do....and don't....as the basic, simple way to give a dose is to dissolve it in a teaspoon of water and take it on a clean mouth (then follow the process as described in the book)....this is what I call the "semi-dry" technique or Organon 4.5.
But, for sensitive patients or when at risk of serious aggravation, the way to go is either Organon 5 or Organon 6, slightly modified to adapt to the F series.
Seriously Sheri, read the book.....and BTW, the next one "Third Millennium Homeopathy" is at the printers, it contains the evolution of the F series in part 2....

Re: Online Schools ?
Thanks,
for all your answers and suggestions.
I really appreciate you taking the time to respond, and I am taking a second look at every school you mentioned.
Irene,
I wanna be a healer and use whatever is in the patients best interest. Homeopathy will be the core system, but it will not be 'the-one-and-only'.Incurable is not acceptable for me.
And in order to find great teachers I posted my question about online schools. You find countless reviews from students on most schools webpages. But I wanted to hear from students, former students and homeopaths who are out of these schools.
A lot of things look great in the beginning and sound great when advertised, but do they hold what they promise?
Is what you learned in these schools really helpful?
Does it prepare you well?
I am aware of that in order to be a good healer, the study never ends. But I would like to start from a great foundation where I can built on, to gain further knowledge.
Still torn between human and animal homeopathy. My thought was to start with a foundation and the basics and then decide later.
I am in the US, Oregon actually
Victoria,
I did look @ Caduseus and AMCH, for what ever reason they did not stick out for me. But I will look again.
Did you study there?
Shannon,
I looked at so many schools.....I started actually years ago with my search. As you can read, English is not my first language and until now I wasn't sure if the language wouldn't be a too high of a barrier. I wanna help and not harm and I was concerned that I might overhear/misinterpret a given information from a client.
That is the main reason why I hesitated for so long.
Sheri,
according to my insurance broker, later the business insurance would be more affordable with a certification, some insurances even require it, from like CHC, ACHENA....
Lynn,
BIH was one of the schools with a 'maybe'.
Any additional thoughts to
- BIH?
What about:
- Resonance school of Homeopathy
- Canadian College for Homeopathy
- Homeopathy School International
?
Thanks again!
Anja

Re: Online Schools ?
Here is my laundry list for school selection. There were several good suggestions made by people on this thread, so you may want to keep the list going : )
1. CHC accreditation – have already, or where they are in the process, what exactly is left to get it, how long till they do.
2. how many hours of theoretical instructions - purely on-line schools need to give you way more than 500 hours
3. how 250 clinical hours are dealt with, will you at some point be able to take cases under supervision or will you only watch
4. how 10 supervision cases are dealt with
5. ask to sit on lectures/even better clinics/ yahoo group guest pass/phone conference
6. ask what method (Kent Sankaran, Boennninghousen’s etc.) are they teaching. If they say they are teaching all, ask for the instructors names and check vs their website to see if they practice what they teach at least 80% of the time
7. how many teachers are full time or part time. What % of classes is taught by same instructor
8. get homeopath for yourself (family member)with the same background you expect to have after graduation.
9. get several homeopaths for several family members – one for each method they say they practice. Notice the difference.
10. ask prospective homeopaths what methods they are practicing (if they don’t tell, ask what repertory they are using, if it is paper or program and if they will let you see your repertorization. Sensation method people may not – it is ok in some cases. Anybody else – not so much, even if they come up to the remedy using methods other than repertory, they should be able to confirm it)
11. go on appointments esp if they provide free introductory – some do, esp recent students.
12. Ask prospective school what % of graduates ends up practicing. Ask for graduate students who currently practice and if they would recommend some of them as your homeopath. Schedule appointment or at least check their website to see if these people had extra training after/before that school.

Re: Online Schools ?
This is a pretty good list of things to ask about. However,
asking to see one’s case rep is not one of those. It might be interesting
but most homeopaths will refuse. Even as a student or practitioner, the
homeopath will not want to share their thinking. My experience is that
homeopaths tend to fall into a hierarchical relationship with their ‘clients’
and can often become patronizing in the same way as conventional medical
practitioners.
If working with the Sensation method, that rep may be limited as the repping
often is a corroboration of what comes from the case mantra that develops.
Better to make a tape recording or video of the session for a better understanding
of how a remedy was chosen.
I do think this raises a question that is important, to me at least. Working with
a healer should be a cooperative effort. While there are people who simply want
a magic pill without any understanding, it seems to me that part of healing is
knowing how one got sick and getting the person to begin to assume responsibility
for their choices and practices in life. I also find that practitioners who tend to
be mechanical in their case taking often miss the mark. I can speak of this first hand.

Re: Online Schools ?
I'd do a lot of rinsing before following this plan:-)
* This will prove that you have a good memory, as it includes a 4 hour memory test - a TIMED memory test too.
They tell you to guess if you are not sure. (THAT's how to train a homeopath?)
THEIR test is nothing to do with being a good homeopath - in fact the remedies they list for you to memorize, are likely to prejudice you towards looking to see if one of them will work!!!
THAT IS THE SINGLE BIGGEST MISTAKE A HOMEOPATH CAN MAKE ...to try to see if the remedy they studied will work in a case which to them "looks like Remedy-X"
WHat DOES make a good homeopath, is the ability to select, really well, the appropriate SYMPTOMS of the patient, that are most relevant to the case, and what kind of precedence each should have, so that rubrics can be chosen form them in a balanced way. Thus patient symptoms lead tot eh remedy - and there's no guessing and fooling around to see if your memorizing can give you a short cut.
NONE of the real homeopathy work - is tested by CHC - which to me makes the "certification" valueless.
* Add to that the fee of $500 for this little memory test -
(Since when was homeopathy about how well you can memorize AND HOW FAST YOU CAN PROVE IT?)
Oh and another $145 fee per year - ANNUALLY - for what??????
Oh and you need to find a proctor for the tests with a CHC qualification where you live (HUH?) or else fly to a place where there is one - pay for that, pay for a proctor for all day.......
* AH yes - ONLY a CHC person can test you - it's like the fox watching the henhouse - none of their board members lists any real qualification - just the self-given one of CHC.
No degree in homeopathy for example.
* The study guide offered costs more dollars of course and it is about techniques for writing an exam and about how to memorize and what remedies to memorize. THAT is how to be a good homeopath?
What a waste of time.
* As to the practical part. ANyone claiming to practice homeopathy for 4 yrs or more gets a free ride, regardless whether they chose wrong remedies and caused provings in every case they ever treated.
Oh and they DO want you to be a cattle processor. You have to have
* SO after rinsing this one off, I'd MUCH rather see a good degree such as D.I.Hom or D.Vet.HOM that involves at least 4 years of study - than a 4 hour memory test and CPR exam!
The money will be better spent on some good new homeopathy books which ADD value instead of subtracting it.
* CHC makes a fortune though - so it IS good for someone:-)
If you want a career with CHC, go for it! Most people are gullible enough to pay up. ANd it looks like money for jam.
ANyone can take the test but I shall not be suggesting that students at my school waste their time or money, much less develop the very bad habits that are used for CHC testing.
FInally - CHC "certification" has ZERO legal standing.
I agree with this one if the student has no prior eduction in relevant areas.
Some of my students already have a D.Vet Hom degree, and wish to have more advanced training.
My approach is to have the students start taking case, which I/tutor will oversee, and they get feedback so that they learn from each case. Over time and as their studies progress, they will take more and more complex cases, and need less and less assistance, finally taking cases on their own, submitting them for auditing. AFter they start practice on graduation at D.Vet.Hom level, (plus necessary other courses such as how to set up a homeopathy practice in their sate) and during more advanced training, they work alone but can ask questions or for case advice any time.
Ten?
That's a CHC joke.
A training homeopath needs a LOT of cases.
Anyone teaching a method is not a good enough homeopath to be a tutor.
Proper training is about healing - and about *principles* - and about how to find the information needed in a case - and how to keep up on the research that may help the case (including a LOT more research than just a few "methods").
I do not know a decent or ethical homeopath who puts their cases in public on a website with their thinking behind them. Nor does a good homeopath have a "method". They use all the principles at their disposal.
Some of my cases are published, but in a formal journal not on a website, and they do not mention any "method". they explain what I did and why,....
It's a bit like my knitting: I put stitches where I want them to be, and use techniques form several cultures, but if I write down how I designed and knitted the item, it will only describe what was done and why - not the history behind it.
Doesn't mater as long as the quality of teaching is correct.
Invalid.
No two homeopaths have the same background.
Two students from the same school will not be alike (unless it is a CHC type place where all they do is tell people to memorize remedies and splurt it out.)
YOur other ideas are in the same vein.
Nothing asks how GOOD a homeopath is.
What kinds of cases do they handle with success for example.
Have tutors they published any research?
What qualifications do tutors have. (and I do not mean CHC labels - I mean actual homeopathy qualifications)
WHo cares - DO they restore health?
WHo cares - DO they restore health?
I always make my rubrics list available - as you will have seen in my posts here for example. But it is a small part of the process of selecting and using the right remedy..
100% at mine.
But not as easy to use as a criterion as you might think:
In my school, the students WANT advanced training so they already are very committed. BUt I think the 100% is because I also teach how to set up a legal practice. The disgusting laws and the speed with which big pharma is getting them changed to exclude homeopaths in USA states, are scary to many. They'd rather not practice than be slapped with an accusation of practicing (veterinary) medicine without a license (a situation in which one is guilty till proved innocent). In this state (which is better than many!) that carries a $1000 a day fine and 6 months jail minimum and is a federal offense after the 2nd day,
This often has the intended effect of frightening people away from the profession they paid so many thousands of dollars to learn - but which failed to let them know the pitfalls of practice in this regard much less how to assess them - or especially how to deal with them - so it comes as a shock after graduation. The course has a paragraph or so to say they are responsible for upholding laws in their area. I do not think that is anywhere near enough in today's climate.
Some schools push that CHC nonsense that does more harm than good as I described above and has no legal standing - with much more emphasis on it than on what's REAL - a school cop-out in my opinion, trying to pass the buck for an uncomfortable REAL issue - namely the LAWS the person has to fall under and which DO have legal standing!
I started my own school at the request of graduate (and some undergraduate) students I had at BIH, as they felt that they had not learned enough yet, and they liked my approach.
AFter more than ten years as a tutor, I can say MOST graduates do practice but not necessarily homeopathy as their main activity. One of them mainly does another alternative healing profession, with some homeopathy, for example. I am happy with that - every graduate has a unique life goal and a unique healing ability, which is theirs alone to use. MY school does have a narrower focus than most - that of *veterinary* homeopathy, and in advanced areas, there is concentration on cats and on immune compromise diseases.
I think that is wise.
I sugest this IS the way to go - but yo will find great teachers in many places.
I learned from some of the best - and not from any school. The school can provide basics - but the real learning is a self-starter type of activity - and it pays to do asyo are doing and look around.
Groups like this one will help you see who writes sense, and who does not. So also a publication like Hpathy.
Join whatever groups you can where thee ay e really good people participating.
You are welcome to join my group Vethom-friends at yahoogroups for example.
I have two other groups you MIGHT like: Catwell yahoo grp - cat health but includes homeopathy
and FIP-to-HEALTH yahoo group - about the feline illness FIP - which needs homeopathy to come right - nothing else has brought a cat back to health from FIP anywhere. SO that group discusses live cases and tries to help them - as there are not enough homeopaths to go around. You can get a feel there for how a case progresses.
[The homeopathy for FIP is an approach i developed and published and continue to try to improve; the death rate is still high.]
(I was in Tigard for 12 yrs)
Bear in mind that homeopathy is an energy system and that therefore (like magnetism), it is independent of physiology - it will work in ANY species including plants - in other words selecting a remedy for a bashed bee on a windscreen or a bashed human who tumbled down stairs, is likely to result in the same remedy.. it is the same in principle.
WHat's different is the WAY you obtain the information you need, who gives it to you (the patient... or for animals the animal owner, who can be more objective), and sometimes lab work (useful to tell you symptoms the animal cannot voice), and the environmental issues differ - nutrition is species specific for example.
ANimals cases also can involve say an elephant, who is a it large for the office chair:-)
Emal consulting works well for animals as you have an objective partner in the owner, who knows the animal and can report symptoms and DO the treatment. (A legal benefit as it is legal to treat one's own animal - you can TEACH them to do so.) With people, you need a more face to face approach, so that YOU can be the objective observer.
That hardly scratches the surface of the differences - but the homeopathy *principles* are the same.
How you implement them, and the environmental aspects - differ.
Namaste,
Irene

What qualifications do tutors have. (and I do not mean CHC labels - I mean actual homeopathy qualifications)
WHo cares - DO they restore health?
WHo cares - DO they restore health?
I always make my rubrics list available - as you will have seen in my posts here for example. But it is a small part of the process of selecting and using the right remedy..
100% at mine.
But not as easy to use as a criterion as you might think:
In my school, the students WANT advanced training so they already are very committed. BUt I think the 100% is because I also teach how to set up a legal practice. The disgusting laws and the speed with which big pharma is getting them changed to exclude homeopaths in USA states, are scary to many. They'd rather not practice than be slapped with an accusation of practicing (veterinary) medicine without a license (a situation in which one is guilty till proved innocent). In this state (which is better than many!) that carries a $1000 a day fine and 6 months jail minimum and is a federal offense after the 2nd day,
This often has the intended effect of frightening people away from the profession they paid so many thousands of dollars to learn - but which failed to let them know the pitfalls of practice in this regard much less how to assess them - or especially how to deal with them - so it comes as a shock after graduation. The course has a paragraph or so to say they are responsible for upholding laws in their area. I do not think that is anywhere near enough in today's climate.
Some schools push that CHC nonsense that does more harm than good as I described above and has no legal standing - with much more emphasis on it than on what's REAL - a school cop-out in my opinion, trying to pass the buck for an uncomfortable REAL issue - namely the LAWS the person has to fall under and which DO have legal standing!
I started my own school at the request of graduate (and some undergraduate) students I had at BIH, as they felt that they had not learned enough yet, and they liked my approach.
AFter more than ten years as a tutor, I can say MOST graduates do practice but not necessarily homeopathy as their main activity. One of them mainly does another alternative healing profession, with some homeopathy, for example. I am happy with that - every graduate has a unique life goal and a unique healing ability, which is theirs alone to use. MY school does have a narrower focus than most - that of *veterinary* homeopathy, and in advanced areas, there is concentration on cats and on immune compromise diseases.
I think that is wise.
I sugest this IS the way to go - but yo will find great teachers in many places.
I learned from some of the best - and not from any school. The school can provide basics - but the real learning is a self-starter type of activity - and it pays to do asyo are doing and look around.
Groups like this one will help you see who writes sense, and who does not. So also a publication like Hpathy.
Join whatever groups you can where thee ay e really good people participating.
You are welcome to join my group Vethom-friends at yahoogroups for example.
I have two other groups you MIGHT like: Catwell yahoo grp - cat health but includes homeopathy
and FIP-to-HEALTH yahoo group - about the feline illness FIP - which needs homeopathy to come right - nothing else has brought a cat back to health from FIP anywhere. SO that group discusses live cases and tries to help them - as there are not enough homeopaths to go around. You can get a feel there for how a case progresses.
[The homeopathy for FIP is an approach i developed and published and continue to try to improve; the death rate is still high.]
(I was in Tigard for 12 yrs)
Bear in mind that homeopathy is an energy system and that therefore (like magnetism), it is independent of physiology - it will work in ANY species including plants - in other words selecting a remedy for a bashed bee on a windscreen or a bashed human who tumbled down stairs, is likely to result in the same remedy.. it is the same in principle.
WHat's different is the WAY you obtain the information you need, who gives it to you (the patient... or for animals the animal owner, who can be more objective), and sometimes lab work (useful to tell you symptoms the animal cannot voice), and the environmental issues differ - nutrition is species specific for example.
ANimals cases also can involve say an elephant, who is a it large for the office chair:-)
Emal consulting works well for animals as you have an objective partner in the owner, who knows the animal and can report symptoms and DO the treatment. (A legal benefit as it is legal to treat one's own animal - you can TEACH them to do so.) With people, you need a more face to face approach, so that YOU can be the objective observer.
That hardly scratches the surface of the differences - but the homeopathy *principles* are the same.
How you implement them, and the environmental aspects - differ.
Namaste,
Irene

Re: Online Schools ?
"you should never give the same potency twice in a row, that
Have you questioned that thinking, Dr. Joe? If we give the same remedy in the same potency, are the molecules
no longer an exact simillimum of the pathogens we are trying to neutralize?
If the pathogens have changed, any amount of succusions will not help - the remedy has to change to match the
now presenting pathogenic molecules.
