World Homeopathy Day is just around the corner and it is celebrated on Dr Hahnemann birth anniversary, 10th of April.
Dr Hahneamnn was a revolutionary scientist who upset the status quo of his time.
The idea of Holistic Healing was born with Hahnemann over 220 years ago.
Dr Hahnemann, the man with great vision, who also had the foresight of microorganisms impacting our health.
He was the first to emphasise how emotions and environment can affect our health and the effects of nutrition, cleanliness, ventilation, fresh air and disinfection or cleanliness of rooms.
Friedrich Hahenamnn was a Master of:
– Biology
– Mathematics
– Pharmacy & Literature
– Philosophy
– Psychology
– Microbiology
– Linguist
& Never Ending HOMEOPATHY
In his lifetime, Hahnemann made significant observations regarding health, disease, and infectious diseases. However, he also noticed something else in his research and in his observations of natural law.
He noticed that these illnesses could result in lingering symptoms and could even be inherited by future generations, despite not being directly contracted by them.
This was particularly evident in cases of scabies, gonorrhea, tuberculosis, and syphilis.
He noticed a trans-generational influence that presented itself as ‘disease predispositions’ which he labelled ‘miasms’.
In the present generation, it was termed an ‘acquired miasm’, while in future generations, it became known as an ‘inherited miasm’.
So not only did Hahnemann advance the idea of holistic healing, he also brought forward the idea of epigenetics.
This was of great foresight considering that not even TCM (collectively predate to the birth of Chinese civilisation ** ) has the theory or concept of “miasm” in future generations.
Although once a highly debated theory, the idea of miasms proposed by Hahnemann continues to be a topic of interest.
Recent advancements in genetics may shed light on a potential explanation for this concept.
The study of epigenetics, a recent addition to the field of genetics, focuses on the influence of external factors on gene expression.
Geneticists have long been intrigued by the variability in gene expression, as not all genes are active constantly.
Epigenes are essential markers positioned around DNA, responsible for regulating the expression of gene sequences.
These markers can be influenced by external factors, aiding an organism or species to better adapt to environmental challenges.
According to estimates, there are approximately 50,000 epigenes for every gene, suggesting that our understanding of this field is still in its infancy.
Even though all of our cells contain the same genetic information passed down from our parents, certain portions of our DNA are only active at specific times in each cell.
According to clinical observations and research homeopathy can function as an epigenetic switch within your body.
There was a video in YouTube by the late homoeopathic physician of Queen Elizabeth, Dr Peter Fischer, in which he talked about epigenetics and homeopathy, however it appears the video has been scrubbed off the internet.
Therefore I will leave here another video that talks about epigenetics and homoeopathy.
It is an interview by Ty Bollinger with Dr E S Rajendran. Dr Rajendran explains in more detail.
