“All substances are poisons, there is none which is not a poison. The right dose differentiates a poison and a remedy.”
-Swiss physician and alchemist, Theophrastus Paracelsus
provings on healthy subjects whole symptom picture of the individual matching remedy picture to the individual via Law of Similars
small doses stimulate (secondary reaction of vital force) medium doses irritate (direct primary effect) large doses destroy
Kohler’s 4 principles of medicinal action
substitution compensation suppression regulation (relates to homeopathy)
single remedy law of similars minimum dose
rapid course, resolving in healing or death(chronic disease tend to persist and may be insidious)
no provings for combination (unpredictability) don’t know which remedy acted or whether it was a synergistic effect
inside outmost important organ to least top-down reverse order of appearance is reversed by suppression
the level on which the individual’s vital force is primarily focused: mental emotional physical
mental emotional physical general sensorial functional ultimate (lesional tissue changes)
physical: freedom from pain; achieve comfort emotional: freedom from passions (uncontrolled emotion); achieve calmness, peace mental: freedom from selfishness, desire, anxiety; achieve clarity, creativity in contributing to the happiness of self and others
physical heat cold damp sun mechanical trauma nutritional deficiency excess environmental toxins personal toxic habits tobacco alcohol drugs poisonings microbes fungi bacteria viruses emotional trauma grief shock humiliation negative emotions hatred jealousy anger greed frustration due to blocked energy: spiritual sexual survival
the vital force untuned an expression of the vital force a stimulus for growth and change imbalance a symptom self-healing
the energy field which allows us to function strength at conception the health of parents at conception mother’s mental, emotional, physical state during pregnancy and birth
family history severe illness early death insanity medical history stresses drugs vaccinations life stresses center of gravity of the presenting case strength and clarity of symptoms
Relationship of vital force and energy level of the patient can differ due to flu, stress, etc.
Levels of susceptibility, sensitivity, or characteristics
stress, trauma, grief, loss, jealousy, drugs, bad news, vaccination, severe infection, suppressed skin symptoms, overexertion, inherited

General symptoms: affect the whole person (“I . . .”) Particular symptoms: refer to a part (“My . . .”)
all mental symptoms physical general symptoms constitutional type, tendencies, and pathology applying to the whole person ailments from emotions; suppressions restlessness, prostration, weakness, trembling, chill, fever general aggravations and ameliorations; weather; temperature sleep sex menses or other discharges food desires and aversions sensations in several parts of the body objective symptoms
Common common to a disease Characteristic keynotes: unusual; help to indicate similimum Repertory appropriate useful rubric in repertorisation, often containing about 15 to 30 remedies Pathognomonic characteristic of a disease; diagnostic Confirmatory symptoms typical of a suspected remedy elicited to confirm the remedy (usually characteristic symptoms) Eliminating strong physical generals used to contraindicate certain remedies (warm vs. chilly, e.g.)Complete (major areas to make it up)location; extension sensation; intensity modalities concomitant etiology
The most important factor in eliciting a good case:
Ask “What else?” and attend with an attitude of receptive concentration
Classes of patients & the problems with each
closed: don’t volunteer much information, especially beyond physical symptoms open: give too much information and need to be guided to stay on track hypochondriacal: exaggerate symptoms and give too much detailed medical history homeopaths: read materia medica and get swayed in their thinking important people: try to give orders and are uncooperative intellectuals: rationalize symptoms and interpret everything they experience knowledgeable about homeopathy: ideal, knowing what is most important to the process

Dilemma of giving advice during a homeopathic consultation
Want to begin advising the patient therapeutically but may lose vital information
Determining polarities (e.g. chilly or warm): rule in/out with specific questions suggest a range of possible answers Do you prefer water ice-cold, room temperature, or hot drinks? Do you feel chilly or warm generally?

Have wool blankets on hand to prevent chilling.
Lay 2 towels wrung out in hot water on the front of the body for 5 minutes, covering from hips to shoulders and also covered by wool blankets.
Replace the 2 towels with a single towel wrung out in cold water, and chilled in the freezer if necessary, for at least10 minutes, while covered with the blankets, removing the towel only when it has become warm.
Repeat, lying on front, placing towels on back.
