Listen up!

To be a Homoeopath you have to be able to not judge a person, not put your own 'stuff' into the understanding of another's issues and to be aware of the underlying conversation that is going on either physically, mentally, emotionally or spiritually. It is quite a task, but rewarding.
The main task I have is to listen with my hEARt! I often uncover peculiar things from listening with my hEARt:

Many years ago I had a knock on my front door late on a Friday night. I remember it was raining. Outside the door stood a patient of mine with another woman. The patient apologized but asked could I please see her friend right now.
I decided that I could, and the woman came in to my clinic. She sat and told me that she her father had died 5 years ago, she had been unable to get over it, her life had stopped and she was extremely tearful for the entire session. I cannot really remember much more of the conversation other that during the session I realized she was dying. I did not know how, but I felt it strongly. I told that she must make a choice between life and death. She left with her remedies and I did not hear from her again for a week. I thought that I must have seemed too 'way out' for her to contact me again! When she did call she told me this: after she left me she went to hospital, where she was diagnosed with a blood disorder, that was a) hardly ever seen b) only 5 cases in the world and c) was poisoning her to death!
She was rushed into ICU and put into the bed opposite where her father had died! She then remembered what I had suggested and she decided to LIVE, this was her mantra whist she was in hospital. After a week she was discharged with no further symptoms! We worked together for a few months, she went on to realize her dream (which if I remember correctly) was to study Indian head massage, in India! Lucky fish!


After this consultation, my way of practice changed fundamentally: I listen with all my senses, especially my hEARt.
