Never Been Well Since

I have written about Never Been Well Since, NBWS, in a previous blogpost. I wanted to write more about it. Never Been Well Since – NBWS – means someone has not been well since a certain happening, illness or event occurred in their life.

When I meet with a patient, and am taking their case, hearing and witnessing them, I will ask when did these symptoms start? When did this start to bother you? What was going on in your life at the time or right before this started? When the patient is a child, I also will ask the mother about her pregnancy, and what was going on before and right around the time she conceived. I will also find out about the father at the time of conception.

NEVER BEEN WELL SINCE – NBWS

These are some of the “sinces”:

• an emotional loss, of a person, a job, a business, a home
• an emotional experience in which someone felt extreme fear, anger, or any other feeling
• a traumatic occurrence or situation such as an accident, a fall, being in an earthquake, a hurricane, a war, a rape
• an abusive situation
• receiving certain medications, the pill and vaccines
• having a surgery or other procedure
• having illness (acute or long term) such as the flu, cancer, mono, coronavirus and others
• family medical history – tendencies and susceptibilities are passed down from one generation to another

A patient comes in for homeopathic care. Something in particular is bothering them. A homeopathic remedy is given to address this. Sometimes, this is the only homeopathic remedy needed, and sometimes a series is needed, using one at a time, or using  intercurrently with other homeopathic remedies, to help with the healing. A timeline is established of the patient’s life made up of events, losses, illnesses, uses of medications, the patient’s own and their family’s medical history. All of this may show that other homeopathic remedies may be needed. It is getting a deeper and wider view of the patient, and addressing the wholeness of the patient.

HOMEOPATHY TO HEAL

These are some of the health issues that have brought people in for homeopathic care:

• flare ups of particular symptoms such as a rash, a cough, digestive issues, headaches, menstrual issues, flus
• lingering emotions such as angry, grief, sadness, fear, guilt, blame, shame
• an acute situation – UTI, colds, rash, cough, falls, flus
• fears and anxieties
• just not feeling well
• sleep issues
• painful joints, difficulty moving

Health – Being Who You Are

This is a post I wrote over 5 years ago. I have changed a few things in it. I wanted to share it again with you. 

I want to wish you all a wonderful Happy Thanksgiving. I am very thankful for all of you who are interested and want to know more about homeopathy.

One day, when I was sitting in my consultation room, I heard a sound outside the patio door. I looked outside, and there in the mulberry tree was a little bird. It was a bird I had never seen before. It was maybe 7 inches long. It’s back had a black and white pattern. It’s head was bright red. It was pecking at the tree. It walked from one place to another, pecking. I watched the bird for awhile. I had had the tree cut back recently, which I do every year, so the tree was very bare and open. That is why I could see the bird so clearly.

I immediately looked on the internet to see what kind of bird it was. It was a Ladder Back Woodpecker, which is native to the southwest. The black and white pattern reflected a ladder, in a way. The next day, the bird or its friend, came back, pecking on my tree.

I was thinking as I was watching this bird, that it was doing what it knows how to do. It was being itself – looking for food, and perhaps it found some food, and then moving on to find more. It was being who it is.

What We Want

That is really what we all want –  we want to be who we truly are – to love, to be loved, to do work that we enjoy, to enjoy our lives, to enjoy our relationships with friends and family. And to be healthy so we can do and be these things. To be who we are.

A health issue may make it difficult for a person to take part in their life. These are some of what may bother people to the extent that it affects their life. They can’t truly be who they are.

• Feeling tired all the time.
• Needing to know where the bathrooms are located when she goes out, because she has chronic diarrhea.
• Needing to watch very strictly what he eats.
• Not having an appetite and feeling nausea all the time.
• Continuing to experience pain and discomfort in his hands since an accident.
• Ongoing flare ups of breathing difficulties.
• Feeling anxious and fearful for herself and her loved ones.
• Constantly scratching his arms.
• Skin eruptions.
• Being very sensitive to sounds.
• Experiencing headaches.
• Feeling fearful.
• Lingering effects from a trauma or illness – a fall; an emotional upset or loss; surgery; the flu or coronavirus (long haul): a vaccine reaction.

Healing – Being Who You Are – Being You

With homeopathic care, the whole person is healing. The health issue that brought the person in for homeopathic care is better, AND, the person is feeling better in themselves.

One woman came to homeopathy because she was experiencing flutterings of her heart. These became less, and she was feeling more energetic. She was able to do more activities during the day and had more energy to do these activities. She said she was feeling like herself again. I could see this in her face.

It is not that the person is changed when having homeopathic care; it is that they can be more of who they are. They are no longer feeling bogged down and hindered with a physical, emotional, mental or spiritual health issue, which has been limiting how they live their life and how they interact in the world. As they are healing, they become more of themselves, just as the bird was pecking on my tree, being who he was, the person is being who they are.
