This insightful analysis of how past trauma can be reflected across generations  - grandparental holocaust experiences, for example - shows how deeply etched into the human psyche these wounds are. This very experienced teacher and homeopath gives examples of conditions such as ADHD/ Aspergers/ eating disorders/ Schizophrenia/ Alzheimers in which the original trigger could be pre-verbal, perhaps in-utero, or transmitted through unresolved issues in a family's ancestry eg sexual and physical abuse, war, grief, and so on.
Prompted by her experiences in the former Yugoslavia, the author learned that the trauma of war did not necessarily afflict all individuals equally. The key to healing post traumatic stress lay in unearthing trauma locked inside the individual's psyche, patterned from their formative years, or ancestral line.
The importance of early life occurrences in moulding brain structures and the influence of previous generations is extensively discussed.
Homeopathic remedies, including some uncommon ones such as Crocus, are explored in relation to the conditions examined, and there is a full Materia Medica included describing each in detail. The author's own experience in clinic is extremely interesting and will help you to use remedies that are under-prescribed at present, such as Mancinella, Mag- Carb, Mag Mur, and Hura. This book will interest homeopaths and other complementary therapists as well as individuals seeking healing from their own life trauma. The author draws her research from related scientific fields including anthropology and epigenetics - which confirm and support her findings with her own homeopathic approach. Illuminating, cutting-edge research by this very experienced homeopath who has practised homeopathy across the globe.
