To help people reduce their alcohol consumption and/or dependency, or to stop smoking, my questions will be aimed at trying to find the triggers that make you want a drink or a cigarette and the symptoms you experience when you do stop. For example, many people say they get so irritable with their families when they try to quit smoking that they start smoking again in order to be nicer to those they love. In this example, my approach would be to investigate the nature of the irritability and find a medicine known for its efficacy in helping those with similar irritability. In addition I will try to help you reduce cravings and identify triggers.
Homeopathy is a holistic medicine it works on the whole person strengthening and revitalising all of our body’s systems. I have discovered that many I have worked with have lost weight as a sort of ‘side effect’ of treatment for something else. Sometimes simply through feeling healthier and more energetic we are able to expend more energy and be more physically active thus losing weight without even trying. Sometimes our tendency to put on weight comes from emotional states, which in turn cause cravings for foods that will increase our weight. So treatment of the emotional upset can result in the cessation of such cravings and subsequent weight loss.
