Lesson two
The Four Fundamentals of Homeopathy
1. All substances used as homeopathic medicine are proved on healthy humans.
2. The so proved homeopathic medicine is selected according to the law of similars.
3. Use a single remedy.
4. Use the minimum dose.
Know the Remedy and Know the Patient
1. Each homeopathic remedy has its own spontaneous, characteristic symptoms, as well as its own general or particular parts affected, that separate it from all others, people are the same.
2. The constant prolonged study of the meterea medica is essential to homeopathy.
Homeopathic remedies establish a state of order in the body, they change the economy from abnormal to normal.
Don't prescribe for the dis-ease, or the out-come of dis-ease, or the cause of disease, prescribe for the patient.
The very nature of the homeopathic remedy must match the very nature of the dis-eased person, mind and body.

What is Health?
Health is freedom of movement, the ability to think abstractly, the ability to communicate intelligently, the lack of painful or annoying sensation of all body parts (the only time we know a body part exists is when it hurts, or is disfunctioning.
What is Dis-ease?
Dis-ease is not an entity, but is named for classification purposes of the departure from health and must be individualized for homeopathic treatment.
Dis-ease is a state of disharmony which involves three factors.
1. A morbific influence.

2. The susceptibility of the person affected.
3. The individuality of the patient modifying the form the dis-ease takes.
What are Symptoms?
Symptoms are the language of the body, expressing its disharmony and calling for a similar remedy to return it to homeostasis.
Acute Dis-ease
A acute dis-ease is one that starts quickly runs its course and ends quickly, either in health or in death.
Chronic Dis-ease
A chronic dis-ease is one that starts slowly (sometimes undetected), and progresses throughout the life of the patient, robbing him of health and finely of life itself.
Herring's Law of Cure
Herring's law of cure states that the body while healing will heal in a certain order, as fallows:
A. From inside to outside (center to circumference).
B. From top to bottom.
C. From last to first.
When patient's are on a remedy we want to see this law in action.
When a patient is on a homeopathic remedy and we observe a symptom that is not part of the case we have taken, we have four possibilities:
1. It was caused by the homeopathic remedy (a proving)
2. It is an old system that is returning according to Herring's law of cure.
3. It is a new acute dis-ease, in which case the original treatment must be stopped and a new homeopathic remedy must be prescribed for the new dis-ease. When this new acute dis-ease is over, we can reinstate the original treatment.
4. The patient forgot to tell us about this dis-ease that have had in the past.
