Vibrational Medicine for Affairs of the Heart
Vibrational Medicine for affairs of the heart written by Genie Rowson, Founder of The Remedy Shoppe; Vibrational Medicine.
In my practice, I see an endless number of people who are suffering from the negative emotions of the heart, such as anger, grief, sorrow, resentment, bitterness, self-centredness, loneliness and depression. Over time, these emotions have manifested physically in ailments relating to the heart such as blood, heart and circulation problems; lung and breathing disorders, hypertension, shoulder and arm problems, to mention a few. Our psychology becomes our biology!
The ultimate goal of a natural health practitioner or homeopath would be to find a natural remedy that can assist at an emotional level to help encourage the positive faculties of the heart, such as love, gratitude, joy, forgiveness, hope, trust, integrity, dignity, tolerance, kindness and empathy.
Vibrational Medicine uses many remedies that can bring about a change of heart and help correct the emotional dis-ease we all suffer (and pass on to others) from time to time. The best thing each of us can do for our loved ones this month is to address the important emotional disorders in ourselves. The right remedy will restore a wonderful sense of emotional balance without any nasty surprises or side-effects.
Here are a few of the most popular universal remedies that get to the heart of the matter…
Aconitum: Aconitum is the first remedy for panic attacks and heart palpitations. It is known as homeopathy’s Rescue Remedy and, as a polychrest, it has many other uses, including being highly effective to alleviate anxiety, fear, shock and panic, and sleeplessness. It is also the first remedy to take at the onset of colds and flu, fever and sore throats.
Aurum: This remedy is made from gold and is an important remedy for depression possibly brought on by the loss of love, grief or severe emotional stress where a person becomes despairing, tired of life, discontented and has a profound sense of worthlessness; the person may be full of self-condemnation and is the epitome of gloom and doom, fearsome, worried, hurried and quarrelsome; cannot stand contradiction and is liable to outbursts of rage with subsequent remorse. Aurum suits the person whose negativity is brought on or made worse by grey, cold, cloudy days, and is also the homeopathic treatment for SAD – Seasonal Affective Disorder.
Ignatia: Best used where the emotions are in great turmoil after shock, grief, loss of love or disappointment, and where symptoms of worry, anxiety or hysteria are most pronounced. This emotional state may be accompanied by symptoms such as hiccoughs, a lump in the throat, sighing, trembling and twitching, or even hysterical vomiting, diarrhoea or insomnia. Moods may vary from sadness, silence and sobbing to total uncontrollable or inconsolable hysteria; brooding or bottling up of emotions.
Lachesis: This remedy will help with negative emotions such as hatred, bitterness, jealousy and envy. It suits the person who feels sad in the morning, with no desire to mix with the world. The person may feel restless and uneasy, and is suspicious of others. All symptoms are worse after sleep, and mental labour is best performed at night.
Pulsatilla: For separation anxiety which leads to clinginess, tearfulness and emotional changeability. Fear of a loved one being harmed.
Sepia: My favourite woman’s remedy. Helpful for symptoms including sadness, tearfulness and irritability. The person is easily offended, snappy (especially with her husband and children); feels that she can’t cope and is exhausted. Sleep is restless and unrefreshing.
Nat Mur: For the long-term ill effects of grief (and even fear or anger) where the person will not let go of the pain, still feels emotional hurt, bears grudges, feels resentful and dwells on past emotional upsets such as separation, divorce, betrayal, financial difficulties and lack of parental love. Also helpful in cases where the emotions have been suppressed. This remedy will suit the person who appears ‘in control’, is irritated by consolation and prefers to cry alone. Where a friend or loved one seems almost too brave and stoic under dire circumstances, Nat Mur will ease their suffering.
Bach Flower remedies: These are very helpful in alleviating a range of negative emotions and can be taken with any other remedies or medicines. Always choose the remedy/ies that most closely match your mental and emotional symptoms. For more remedies to alleviate many negative emotions, see a list of Bach Flower remedies in There’s a remedy for that! (my book).
