Primary and Secondary actions are classic homeopathic philosophy. That doesn't make them not controversial, or a hot topic of conversation among homeopaths past and present! In this intercurrent episode, Kelly presents a view different views from the archives on primary and secondary action.

I talk today with Jerry Kantor, of Vital Force Health Care LLC about his rich book, Autism Reversal Toolbox. The book covers a broad swath including: 1) The Workbench- influences and potential etiology of ASD, cultural and environmental influences including epigenetics, and the 'Sense Dimensional perspective,' which presents a relationship between the 5 sense and the 5 elements of Chinese Medicine. 2) Thorough discussion of the ASD intake. 3) The 10 elements of a successful approach. 4) Conceptu...

Following Hering's directions for studying remedies, I share you with you my dive into the small remedy, Sambucus nigra, which I recently used for a young patient. I love the Hering method, but have also found that it doesn't go far enough- for me. So I've added my insights and extensions. Enjoy!

Hello and welcome to Episode 43 of 1M, I’m Kelly Callahan and today I’m talking with Joerg Wichmann for the first interview of 2019. Joerg is the man behind the wonderful website provings.info , which is an essential resource for lovers of homeopathy, practicing or not. If this is the first you’re hearing of provings.info , it’s a comprehensive database of remedies and their associated provings- I think it’s the only resource of its kind, as a stand-alone database. You can search for a remedy, s...

Hey everyone! Welcome, Welcome to 1M: A Homeopath’s Podcast. This is episode 41, the last episode of 2018, and wraps up my 3rd year of podcasting. Today’s guest is symbolic for me in that way, as it was in Jeremy Sherr’s Dynamis class that I conceived of this idea to do a podcast. So to have him back on the show for the 2nd time- the first time I did the recording at our final weekend in Sweden, I think- is really cool for me. Jeremy Sherr , if you are not familiar with him, is an Israeli homeop...

Hey folks! This is a new, different, and slightly challenging episode- but ultimately, an awesome one! The challenging part is that my computer is in the shop, so I'm working off my son's computer and my back up drive, which makes finding files a bit of a challenge. As such, there's some new atmospheric music- 'Deep Ocean' provided by Purple Planet Music. The new and different part is this is my first book review- yay! and also my first episode with sponsorship!

Yesterday was Halloween, but the scary story that we've been grappling with- and will continue to- is the quiet action of the FDA, chipping away our access to homeopathic remedies. This is episode 39 of the 1M podcast. Today I’ve brought you not just a great interview, but one of extreme importance to the health and future of homeopathy here in the United States, though I’m sure it will be of interest and enlightening to those out of the US as well. Around the world there are waves of resistance...

Hello Friends… I’m so happy that you’ve joined me! We’re going to dive into discovery together with my awesome, fun guests today- Denise Straiges and Alastair Gray I often start the top of the show with a quote that I particularly like from the interview- and it typically isn’t me -BUT- in this case, it seemed really apropos because some really cool connections followed my interview with Denise and Alastair that kind of illustrated what I was sharing in the quote about how I build my content org...

Today's episode is an hour and some change of unparalleled value - an interview with Karen Allen, senior practitioner and so much more…. I pulled the quote out there at the top of the show because I felt like Karen put into words what so many of us feel at some point in our lives as we become deeper and deeper embedded in homeopathy. But it’s not only Karen’s words that are engaging here, it’s how she says it. Karen speaks like a story teller… and I was rapt with attention as she shared her expe...

As promised from Episode 35, I have an audio recording for you of me reading Constantine Hering's essay- On the Study of Homeopathic Materia Medica. In this recording, I allow the essay to stand alone, with no commentary. I also recommend reading it yourself here: http://www.wholehealthnow.com/homeopathy_pro/hering_1.html Several times. In the next episode, I will share my reflections on the essay, as well as my experience putting the method to the test. I invite you, my dear listener, to put it...

Today I have a conversation with Spero Latchis, a senior homeopath now living in Portland, Maine, though as you will hear in our conversation, he has had a unique and wide ranging career that’s taken him from Vermont, to India, and now here to Portland. I’m late getting this podcast out and for that I apologize…. summer comes a bit fast and furious here to Maine after a slow spring and I got a bit swept up in the seasonal change- it’s hard to sit behind the desk and microphone when its barefoot ...

Desiree Brazelton approached me about sharing her work addressing parenting within her practice of consulting with children, and indicated that she had been thinking about the remedy states of certain parenting styles. I loved this idea, as in my own life as a homeschooling parent and a practitioner who has a lot of families and children in my practice, I feel like I observe first hand how different parenting styles can both enrich and support the homeopathic process, and how they can also be a ...

Today I’m bringing you an interview I did with Lauren Fox and Holly Manoogian, of Homeopaths Without Borders. HWB is a volunteer run organization that was founded in 1996. Their mission- from the website - is to introduce or advance the understanding and use of homeopathy in areas where it does not yet exist or is minimally available, as well as to promote and provide homeopathic care and healing in emergency situations. To date they have provided service in Cuba, Honduras, El Salvador, Guatemal...

Today's guest is Laurel Chiten, filmmaker of Just One Drop, one of two documentaries about homeopathy that is screening around the globe as I speak. If you are a long-time listener, or you’ve checked out some back episodes, you may remember that I interviewed Laurel right about this time 2 years ago, before Just One Drop was released, before she even knew when it would be released. In fact, I believe it premiered in the UK last year during Homeopathy Awareness Week, which is coming right up, Apr...

Homeopathy as a first line defense, as a first response to crisis and natural disaster, as the best option for bringing a high standard of care to areas of need around the world… these thoughts have been at the forefront of many of my homeopathic musings lately.

I remember Kim’s voice and speaking style being so distinctive and memorable, not to mention how he would rattle off Aphorisms of the Organon from memory without missing a beat. I thought- who IS this guy? And is he for real? Does someone REALLY possess that kind of knowledge and reference and acuity...

Welcome to Season 3! I crossed paths Ananda at the Homeopathy-One Conference, and being the blatant opportunist I have become around my podcast, wasted no time in introducing myself and asking her if she would come on the podcast to talk about her film and experience creating it. Being the gracious, and now *necessarily* opportunist she must be in promoting her film, she agreed. In addition to now being a filmmaker, Ananda is a homeopath and CEASE practitioner, as well as a doula and reiki maste...

Hey everyone! It’s great to be back, recording a new episode of 1M: a Homeopath’s Podcast. It was great to have a reprieve from the monthly episodes- summer was full of great stuff both homeopathy oriented and just life here in Maine ,which is just about perfect this time of year. Some fun serendipity is that we adopted a new puppy into our family and we actually went out to Chicago to pick her up. We went in June, just after I launched the summer bookclub reading Kent’s Lectures, and there we w...

I reached out to Shilpa and she graciously made time in her busy schedule and we recorded this...
