07/22/24 • 39 min

Have you ever wondered how surrendering to your deepest fears could be the key to true healing?

Join us as we explore the incredible journey of Sarah Thompson, a certified homoeopath who specialises in deep healing without drugs. Sarah's transformative experience began with a diagnosis of acute myeloid leukaemia in 2010, which challenged her confidence in a natural lifestyle and scepticism towards conventional medicine. Through her story, we uncover how surrendering to her deepest fears and embracing the medical system she once avoided became pivotal steps towards true healing. Sarah's journey highlights the profound spiritual and emotional growth that comes from addressing the root causes of our ailments and discovering a deeper sense of trust and ease amidst life's challenges.

Listen in as we discuss the intricate relationship between identity, ego, and the healing process. We explore how illnesses can become intertwined with our sense of self, creating spiritual attachments that hinder true healing. Through engaging dialogue with a healing practitioner, Sarah shares how she uncovered deeper root causes of her physical and emotional issues, illustrating significant milestones in her healing journey. This conversation emphasises the importance of recognizing patterns and manifestations of these root causes, guiding individuals towards holistic healing and underscoring the ongoing nature of true healing work.

Finally, we delve into the principles and practice of homoeopathy, guided by Sarah's expertise. Discover how homoeopathic remedies, derived from natural substances, address physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of health. We explore the mission of homoeopathic practitioners to restore a patient's health by ensuring the vital force operates unimpeded, enabling individuals to achieve their highest purpose. Additionally, we discuss the importance of envisioning a state of total health and using that vision to align our actions with our true needs. This episode offers valuable insights into how clarity in our priorities can help us achieve the well-being we desire.
