2 FOREWARD I started this project because I began to accrue so much great information and had no good way of getting to it when I needed it. Folders of notes from college, various seminar notes on the lap top and others in notebooks, even my own discoveries and patient reactions and so I began to piece it all together, making sense of symptoms and remedies as I went along. Quite a few years ago I began to realise how helpful these remedy pictures were to me and showed a few colleagues who encouraged me to make the information available to others. I originally studied at The School of Homeopathy in Devon and Misha Norland always encouraged us to have as many tools in our toolboxes as we could, to enable us to find the best remedy for our patient as possible. On each page I have included every tool available to me for that remedy which includes Chakra s, the circle of elements, Sankaran s sensation method, Jeremy Sherr s Verb, as well as the more traditional rubrics, miasms and key notes. I included some SRP s for each remedy as I began to see that often these illustrated a really interesting point about the remedy, and I must admit, a few are there because they astound me and I have yet to make sense of them! My intention was to have as much information that was relevant to the remedy as possible on a single page. It has not been my intention to use other people s work and pass it off as my own. I have tried to credit every quote from others to them whenever possible, and I would also like to acknowledge the contribution from seminar notes which I have listed at the back. 1
