Now available in pre-recorded video format.

Homeopathy is a 200 year-old system of healing that has deep and ancient roots, yet is at the forefront of current medical practice in terms of its effectiveness, depth of healing potential and safety.

There are two main reasons why homeopathy continues to spread worldwide despite relentless efforts to discredit and eradicate it. The first is quite simply because it works, provided the remedies are correctly prescribed. Once people experience results that they never knew were possible, their doubts and initial skepticism tend to quickly evaporate. The second reason is because it is built on a foundation of core principles which are true, i.e. they are in alignment with the laws of nature, which never change.

Anyone can benefit from homeopathy without ever having learned much about it, and it’s wonderful that some of the commonly used remedies such as Arnica are now becoming widely known. However, to truly appreciate and understand what homeopathy is and what it can do, you have to grasp the principles behind it - only then does it really begin to make sense. Not only that, as your understanding deepens, you will realise that the healing potential of homeopathy goes way beyond anything you had previously imagined.

Homeopathy is controversial because it challenges many of our existing ideas about health and disease, and what is considered to be possible in terms of cure. According to skeptics and materialistically-minded scientists, homeopathy can’t possibly work based on the assumptions of the prevailing biomedical model. And yet, homeopaths have known for centuries that it can and does work, often when everything else has been tried and failed. It is the adherence to an outmoded model that is the problem here - homeopathy is first and foremost an energy medicine that is patiently waiting for medical science to catch up with it!

I can confidently tell you that when you begin to understand the fundamental principles behind the art and science of homeopathy it will literally open up a whole new world for you . As you learn to think homoeopathically, you will gain a totally different perspective on health and disease, and find yourself increasingly empowered to take charge of your own healthcare and that of your family.

Some Common Myths About Homeopathy

Myth # 1 - The remedies are so dilute, they can’t possibly have any effect beyond placebo

Not so! Homeopathic medicines are not merely diluted - they are potentised! It’s true they contain little or no material substance, which renders them totally safe - but they are also energetically charged which enables them to stimulate a powerful self-healing response when correctly prescribed.

Myth # 2 - Homeopathy is unscientific

Not so! Homeopathy has the most rigorous method for testing the effects of its medicines, using live human volunteers (not animals) as the guinea-pigs. Not only that, it is based on sound, scientific principles that have stood the test of time and been verified consistently and repeatedly for more than two centuries.

Myth # 3 - It only works if you believe in it

Not so! Many of the most famous homeopaths in history started out as arch skeptics who were determined to prove that it couldn’t possibly work. They were forced to revise their opinion when they witnessed the results. Also, homeopathy works beautifully on babies, animals and even plants!

Myth # 4 - Homeopathy is only useful for minor ailments

Not so! Experienced homeopaths have successfully treated every kind of illness you can think of including acute epidemic diseases as well as the many chronic conditions that are considered ‘incurable’ by modern medicine. Homeopathy can even treat inherited tendencies passed on through families.

My Homeopathic Journey

My first homeopathic kit is at least 80 years old and the remedies still work!

I first began to study and experiment with homeopathic remedies back in 1978. I had acquired a few ancient text books and was gifted with this rather rustic home remedy kit by a work colleague around 1980. It had been in this person’s family for many decades.

As my studies continued, by chance I heard about a college in London offering practitioner training and I signed up immediately, commencing in 1985 and graduating in 1988.

After completing my homeopathic training I moved to the Lake District and opened the first full-time homeopathic clinic in Cumbria. I quickly realised that when people experienced the magical effects of homeopathy on themselves and their children and animals, they were keen to learn more about it, so I began to give talks and run introductory classes which were hugely popular. Over time, there were people who wanted to go even deeper and train to be practitioners, and in 1993 I co-founded a homeopathic training school called The Lakeland College, of which I was the Course Director for the following ten years.

I went on to write and publish four homeopathic books, all of which remain popular with students and practitioners to this day. As a result of writing my books, I was invited to teach at homeopathic schools all over the world. I also presented hundreds of seminars and workshops on homeopathy, some of which are still available as audio recordings.

I haven’t visited a doctor now for over four decades, relying entirely on homeopathy and other natural healing modalities to assist my recovery whenever I have been ill. My two children have been treated homeopathically since birth, and I can’t begin to tell you how empowering and reassuring it is as a parent to be able to look after your own family using remedies that are tried, tested and totally safe.

Although I retired from homeopathic clinical practice some years ago, I have continued to draw on the wisdom of homeopathy in my daily life. In response to the current global situation, I created a homeopathic help sheet that is freely available to download and use, and many people have kept their families healthy through this crisis using homeopathic remedies.

Why I Created This Programme

Gandhi quote on homeopathy

I realised recently that the knowledge and experience I gained through my background in homeopathy has a value that goes way beyond giving me access to an alternative method of treatment.

Learning homeopathy transforms the way you think and feel - not only about health and disease - but about life itself. And it became very apparent to me during our current situation how humanity is suffering from a lack of true knowledge about this incredible healing system..

My intention in creating this programme is for you to gain your own deep understanding of what homeopathy is (and isn’t), how it actually works in practice, and why it deserves to be your medicine of first choice in the 21st century. More than ever before, we need to take responsibility for our own health-care, and I want you to feel confident and resilient in doing so.

In this course, I won’t be telling you (for example) what remedy to take for a headache or a cough, because I would much rather you learn how to prescribe than have me tell you what to prescribe. If you understand the fundamental principles, you will find it relatively easy to treat a wide range of common ailments by yourself, and you will also know when to consult with someone who is more experienced. In this way you will continue to learn and grow in confidence.

Learning homeopathy expands your consciousness and empowers you so that when the people around you are feeling helpless and frightened, you will have something to offer that is truly helpful and supportive. I believe that homeopathy is the community medicine of the future. It is inherently safe, highly effective and relatively low cost. Homeopathy is driven by passion and a desire to serve humanity - not by corporate greed.

What we need most of all is a much larger global network of prescribers with a deep understanding who can share their knowledge and experience locally. Now, with the advent of online services, we can make high quality homeopathic education available far and wide in a way that has never been previously possible.
