IT IS ALL IN THE MIND !!






How many of you all have seen the movie INSIDE OUT? If not, please go watch it. It is a wonderful movie!
Inside Out is a film about an 11 year old girl named Riley who moves to San Francisco with her parents. Riley experiences a transformation in her mind and finds out who she is as a person as she tries to adjust to her new life and the difficult process of growing up. All her emotions i.e. happiness, sadness/grief, jealousy, disgust, anger, etc  are shown as different persons and we get to know how easy it is to know that all emotions are just packed in a small space called MIND and we realise its just a short span called LIFE in which we experience these feelings.
The famous novelist, Jeffrey Eugenides says, " Biology gives you a brain, Life turns it into a mind"

What are these emotions made of? Or from where do they come? Do they come from brain? Does any organ in our body synthesize or generate these emotions? According to me, NO! These are just names of the feelings we experience in a particular situation. They are generated by an unknown force called MIND! The place where it all starts. There is no science which can find where mind is. It is an abstract. To experience the power of mind all we need to do is be a little alert and be aware of our existence every single moment. All these emotions are developed by our day to day experiences, surroundings and most importantly the aspect in which you see a particular situation,

Now what is the relation between this so called mind and Homeopathy?

The only relation is Homoeopathy will catch out all the emotions thrown out of our mind and will try to find out the reason behind that particular emotion! No emotion is good or bad, it is just RIGHT according to that person, at that time. All we need is a bit of awareness and find the reason behind that feeling. Where homoeopathy helps is if that emotion is constant and causing any discomfort to the patient and converting it to different physical diseases; it helps to eliminate that emotion through useful means and cure the physical problem. The condition is called PSYCHO-SOMATIC DISORDERS. i.e where due to disturbed mind, you are ought to attract physical disorders, like diabetes, hypertension, thyroid disorders, skin diseases, and so on.
Finding the temperament and constitution of a person is the most crucial element of Homoeopathic case taking.

TEMPERAMENT – a certain way a person acts and behaves in a given situation.
CONSTITUTION – physical and mental make-up of a person.

How are you as a person? How do you react to certain situations? Do you cry? What was the happiest and the most sad moment in your life and your reactions to the same? Who is the closest person to you and why? How was your childhood? Are there any suppressions in your life? Were you married according to your will or not? What is the most wild action you have taken or you wish to take in your life? Are some the few question we ask to get to know you.
Of course the answers come with comfort. How open you are with your doctor, it all depends upon that; and its solely the doctor’s duty to make you feel that! When we get these emotions, we give you certain mind exercises that you an practice to feel ok every-time you experience some extreme emotion. Lets see some of the exercises you can practice:


 JOURNALLING :
      This is my personal favorite. Write down everything you feel. LITERALLY everthing. What you did the whole day, what was that that made you upset, what made you happy, what did you learn from each day, how was you day, bad or good, like every little thing you feel. It will take just 10 mins of your busy day, just do it and see the difference!

TALK IT OUT:
If you are not comfortable or don’t like to write down in the fear that someone might read it, talk your emotions out to someone you are comfortable with. Your husband ,wife, boy-friend/girl-friend, fiancĂ©e, mother, father, brother, sibling, anyone! It helps you getting out of the setback you may have faced during the day.

   MIRROR EXERCISE :
   Stand in front of the mirror at any time of the day, (preferable in the morning,) and say it out loud (in your comfortable language) “I LOVE MYSELF AND
                                               Related image

 EXERCISE AND MEDITATE:
 Exercising creates energy that circulates all through your body and gives a soothing effect to your inner self and mind. If the exercise is associated with meditation, there is nothing like it, as when you meditate, there is absolute nothing with you except you, and at end of the day, all that matters is your happiness.

  FOLLOW YOUR HEART/MIND:
  Whatever are your hobbies or that you have missed out on, in life, just complete that. You may be 60 years and you want to hike/trek, just do it. You may be just a bathroom singer, just sing aloud as if no one is listening, you might be afraid to dance, but believe me, if you dance as if no one is wathing, you are the best dancer with your own rhythm! You might not be financially sound, and you want to go travel, go take a short trio just somewhere near to your place, it wll give you happiness which cannot match anything.
Just do what your mind says!

Try to inculcate atleast one of the above and you see a huge difference in your life. If the emotions are causing problems do not hesitate to consult a doctor ASAP. 
Mind is something on which I can talk and write pages! So this was a brief about the most important part of our human system. Please take good are of it, for there is no doctor who can cure if it is broken! You are the one who can fix it. So handle with care.

MYTHS AND FACTS ABOUT HOMOEOPATHY


 Image result for myths and facts images

            Just few days ago, in my clinic, a patient acting cool, with a jacket, funky shoes, hair all spiked up, maintaining a really good french beard entered my clinic door complaining of irritation in throat with redness, a slight fever and bodypain. I took his history and started explaining him the auxiliaries he has to follow and the dose of my homoeopathic medicine. That moment he was taken aback;
He : “Homoepathy? No I don’t want homoeopathy! I want fast result! Give me an injection and finish it off!”
Me : “Yes, I will give only homoeopathy and no I will not be giving you any injections”
He : “okay then madam, I wanted fast results and homoeopathy does not suit me and I have to get back to my work, I don’t have that much patience to wait for your medicine to act and I don’t have time now” saying this he walked away without saying a word of gratitude!
           Getting furious at him , I asked him to give me my consultation charges. But as he was walking away, I realized there is absolute no use of getting angry on people who don’t know the effect and power of homoeopathy. If they have no awareness about this system, this will be the scenario forever!
So that’s when I got the topic for my next blog. Let us burst some myths and know the actual facts about homoeopathy.

1          1.   HOMOEOPATHY ACTS SLOW

Image result for slow images

              We have been hearing this since ages. Now, in chronic diseases the root cause, is the what we have to remove. So to reach to your root cause it may take time (by taking a detailed case history, which also most of the times, is found out real quick). But in acute diseases, like cough, cold, fever, wounds, etc, it absolutely acts quickly like any other medicine if given the perfect medicine.
 ALL YOU NEED IS A LITTLE FAITH!

2          2.   HOMOEOPATHY, A GENERAL MEDICINE

Image result for individual homeopathic medicine

              Homoeopathy is a system where the key is INDIVIDUALISATION. i.e.          Every human being has a uniqueness in him. Every single remedy in this system is very thoroughly studied, proved and scientifically proven and thus suitable for that particular individual to which it is prescribed. For eg., If you and your friend has fever at the same time, you both will have different medicine as the cause can be different for two different individual.
FORGET THE SAYING- ONE FOR ALL!

3            3.   HOMOEOPATHY HAS A PLACEBO EFFECT

Image result for placebo effect

                      I personally would love to burst this one! Any Homoeopathic medicine undergoes a process called potentization in which, a crude substance (a plant extract, a mineral compound, a seed or a stem of a plant) is 100 times beaten in mortar and pestle to make 1 single potency/power and the following potencies/powers are followed with the same procedure. Also, when you administer these potencies for proving method, the homeopaths get the desired results from the patients. So how can it be a fancy? Or placebo?
ITS ALL LOGIC!

4           4. HOMOPATHIC MEIDICINE CONTAINS STEROIDS

Image result for popeye

                  Now, after the potentization, these homoeopathic medicine go for legal standardizations and packaging to concerned authorities and get approved under multiple pharmacopoeias. So if they would contain steroids, they would never come out in the market and be sold out. Also, each and every medicine has its content written on the labels. If steroids were administered through homoeopathic medicines, why wouldn’t you suffer from any side effects then? Whereas Homoeopathy is known for not giving any side effects!
ITS ALL IN THE MIND!!

These were just a few I tried to burst. Let me know if you think or have come across any other myths/ideas about this system, Let us clarify them too.
Unless we know about the system, and believe in it, we cannot know the power of this wonderful homoeopathic system
So, come give yourself and your ailments a try at homoeopathy and see the wonderful results.
