Peeling the Onion: The Art of Constitutional Prescribing
Send a text to Melissa and she’ll answer it on the next episode. Constitutional prescribing stands as the crown jewel of homeopathic practice – the art of understanding not just what symptoms a person has, but who they truly are at their core. This brief yet illuminating episode pulls back the curtain on this profound healing approach that transforms how we view chronic health issues.Melissa explains that your constitution represents your "factory setting" – the genetic blueprint, personality tendencies, and susceptibilities you were born with. The beauty of constitutional prescribing lies in recognizing how life experiences create layers over this core self. Through a compelling example of a child whose calc carb constitution gains a pulsatilla layer after a frightening separation, we see how trauma literally changes our health patterns, food desires, and emotional responses.What makes this episode particularly valuable is its practical application. Parents struggling to understand their child's behavioral shifts, practitioners hitting walls with chronic cases, and anyone experiencing the frustration of remedies that "stop working" will find clarity in the layered approach. The episode offers a tantalizing glimpse into how constitutional prescribing transforms healing from scattered guessing to systematic confidence.Beyond the mechanics of remedy selection, constitutional prescribing touches on deeper dimensions – how trauma leaves layers in our bodies, how our spiritual walk influences our health, and how physical features like hand-to-palm ratios reveal our core constitutional type. This integration of physical, emotional, and spiritual healing sets constitutional prescribing apart as truly holistic medicine.Ready to master this approach yourself?

With visual aids, layer flow diagrams, morphology guides, and case studies, this course equips you to support yourself and loved ones through every health transition.

This intimate conversation takes us through her remarkable journey from desperate mom searching for answers to becoming a trusted practitioner helping hundreds of families find natural healing solutions.Bri's homeopathic awakening happened during a middle-of-the-night crisis with her croupy son. After multiple ER visits and conventional treatments failing, she discovered a homeopathic protocol that dramatically improved his condition.

Through her work with eczema cases, she's learned that successful treatment goes far beyond selecting the right remedy – it requires navigating the emotional terrain of worried parents, managing flares and setbacks, and creating realistic healing plans that acknowledge the messy reality of family life.Her passion for birth support adds another dimension to her practice. With over a decade spent researching birth practices, attending deliveries as support, and even catching a baby herself, Bri brings a wealth of knowledge that empowers expectant mothers to make informed, confident decisions about their care.Working alongside Melissa as both colleague and friend, Bri has developed into an indispensable part of the Homeopathy at Home team.

Transformative Power of Homeopathy: Kimberly's Journey
Send a text to Melissa and she’ll answer it on the next episode. "When I found homeopathy, I was like this can't possibly work." Kimberly's remarkable health journey began with extreme skepticism about those tiny sugar pills with Latin names. After years of restrictive diets, endless detoxes, and natural remedies that provided minimal relief, one desperate attempt with Arsenicum Album for a severe infection changed everything.The transformation was immediate and undeniable. "I woke up disoriented the next morning – something was missing. It was the itching that had been torturing me for weeks." This dramatic healing experience opened the door to exploring what homeopathy might do for her chronic eczema, cat allergies, and other persistent conditions that had resisted all previous approaches.What followed was nothing short of liberating. After two years of not being able to use soap on her cracked, bleeding hands despite following the strictest elimination diet, homeopathy healed her skin completely – and remarkably, allowed her to eat previously problematic foods without flare-ups. The cat who once triggered severe respiratory symptoms now sleeps peacefully by her side every night.These personal experiences revealed something profound: many "natural" approaches she'd previously embraced were actually suppressive rather than truly healing. Where she once felt obligated to tell clients "you're never going to eat anything fun again," she now offers solutions that work with the body's innate healing capacity without requiring life-altering restrictions.Now as a practitioner herself, Kimberly has witnessed similar transformations in her clients – from a woman who discontinued proton pump inhibitors after 40 years to an infant whose six-month cough resolved completely. Her approach combines deep homeopathic knowledge with practical experience and the understanding that true healing empowers rather than restricts.Ready to experience what homeopathy might do for your persistent health challenges?

Living with MCAS: Homeopathic Approaches to Histamine Overload
Send a text to Melissa and she’ll answer it on the next episode. The mysterious world of Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) takes center stage as Melissa unpacks this increasingly common condition characterized by an overactive immune response and excessive histamine release. What was once considered rare has become surprisingly prevalent, especially following COVID-19, leaving many struggling with unpredictable and seemingly disconnected symptoms.Melissa explains how mast cells—crucial components of our immune system that normally protect us—can become hyperreactive, causing everything from intense allergic reactions and abdominal migraines to brain fog, tachycardia, and extreme sensitivities. The hallmark of MCAS is hypersensitivity across multiple body systems, with sufferers often experiencing "flares" triggered by minor stressors that can persist for days or weeks. These patients frequently react strongly to medications, supplements, homeopathic remedies, and environmental factors at levels that wouldn't affect others.Diving into treatment approaches, Melissa emphasizes the importance of a gentle, individualized strategy for these sensitive individuals. Histaminum emerges as a valuable starting remedy to help regulate histamine response. Other helpful remedies can include Nux vomica, Belladonna, Hyosciamus, Carcinosin, and Carbolic acid. For MCAS patients, the mantra is "low and slow"—using minimal potencies (sometimes as diluted as 6C in water) and infrequent dosing (perhaps just weekly). Melissa also discusses the value of natural histamine binders like bentonite clay and zeolite, while acknowledging that conventional antihistamines have their place during acute flares.Frustrated with having to avoid countless triggers? Tired of unpredictable reactions that leave you questioning your sanity? If you're navigating the complex world of mast cell activation, this episode offers valuable insights and practical approaches to help calm your overreactive immune system and reclaim your health.
