Core study guides
Eleven in-depth pillars (2,000+ words each) on the concepts behind every prescription:
- Simillimum: the single best-matching remedy — What simillimum means, how characteristic symptoms decide it, and the errors that miss it.
- Proving: how remedy pictures are built — From Hahnemann’s Cinchona experiment to modern blinded provings — method, ethics, and how to read one.
- Materia medica: the remedy library and how to study it — Allen, Hering, Kent, Boericke, Clarke and modern authors — what each book does and a study method that works.
- Repertory and rubric: the index, the entry, and the method — From Jahr 1835 to Kent to Synthesis — structure, repertorization, rubric pitfalls, and honest limits.
- Modality: the better-and-worse that decides prescriptions — Types, elicitation questions, generals versus particulars, and worked differentiations.
- Polychrest: the wide-use remedies and how to study them — What makes a polychrest, the classic list, overuse traps, and the comparative method.
- Potentization: trituration, succussion, and the scales — How remedies are manufactured step by step, Hahnemannian versus Korsakovian methods, and standards.
- Miasm: Hahnemann’s chronic-disease theory and its modern handling — Psora, sycosis, syphilis — origins, suppression doctrine, later miasms, criticisms, and practical use.
- Aggravation: reading the worsening after a dose — Homeopathic aggravation versus progression, proving pictures, and red-flag exits — with response rules.
- Constitution: whole-person prescribing across a lifetime — What a constitutional picture contains, how it differs from acute and miasmatic work, and long follow-up.
- Posology and second prescription: dose, repetition, and review judgment — Wait, repeat, change potency, or change remedy — the review framework plus remedy relationships.
