Welcome to MindHeal!

MindHeal is a journey into inner healing.

After practising for 21 years under some of the best homeopaths in India, and consulting both in India and abroad, I founded MindHeal Homeopathy.

MindHeal is a genetic and constitutional approach to unlocking the human body’s intuitive power to heal itself. (See About MindHeal). And if that sounds rather complex, no worries. Leave the intricacies to our MindHeal team.

Using pure homeopathic remedies, we adapt classic homeopathy to modern concerns and experience some truly dramatic results.

So, do those sugary, white pills really work? Well, watch these videos. It will take less than 5 minutes.

15 days later… (Also notice the overall change in the patient’s physical appearance, temperament and general demeanour)

Myth #1: Homeopathic remedies ‘take an age’ to work and are meant only for those who have the time ’to check them out’.

Most patients arrive at my clinic after running from pillar to post and consulting with numerous specialists. Apart from undergoing a series of diagnostic tests (which by the way are useful even to a homeopath although from a slightly different point of view), they are usually given various drugs and, like our patient in the video, sometimes recommended surgery even when not necessary.

Most people are bred on conventional allopathic medicine and having reached a point of desperation, frantically swallow this course of treatment.

Is there another way?

Discussion: Homeopathy doesn’t ‘treat’ patients. It is a mind-body approach to healing. That’s why the first consultation takes about an hour. Follow-ups typically take around 15 minutes.

Myth #2: Unfortunately, the detailed history-taking of the first consultation has given rise to the myth that homeopaths 'dig deep into your personal history', and that the process is long and tedious. Not true.

As illustrated in the video, the initial consultation is used to determine:

• the major sources of stress in the patient’s life
• possible triggers for disease
• the patient’s temperament and dominant personality traits

The practitioner needs to assess the individual in his / her context, identify potential stressors, triggers for illness, and how the individual reacts to his / her life circumstances – there is no attempt at counselling.

The initial consultation thus provides a holistic picture of the individual – your temperament – which corresponds to your unique genetic, biochemical and organic make-up. Together, this forms your ‘constitutional’ make-up. Hence, homeopathic remedies – yes, those little white pills – are called ‘constitutional remedies’.

Triggers: In our video, the patient’s trigger was a visit to his terminally ill sister-in-law, which brought back memories of his wife who had died a painful death many years ago. When struck by ptosis, he couldn’t function at work but felt an overwhelming sense of helplessness. He continued to go to the office so that he wouldn’t feel 'completely useless’. But that didn’t work. The clincher (at the end of the video) was his utter powerlessness at being unable to help his son with finances.

For a self-made, inflexible and proud man who didn’t accept handouts, this was a deadly psychological blow, which he converted into a physical symptom.

In subsequent posts, we shall discuss how people unconsciously ‘choose’ their symptoms or why two people with similar temperaments develop two completely different types of illnesses.
