Ep 107: How to harness homeopathy for self-healing

WITH Marcus Fernandez

On the Secret Witch Show today our guest is Marcus Fernandez. Marcus has been practicing and teaching homeopathy for over thirty years worldwide. His journey in homeopathy has been marked by dedication to both education and practice, having founded the Centre for Homeopathic Education (CHE) in London. Marcus’s vision is to make homeopathy accessible to everyone. He firmly believes in empowering people to take charge of their families’ health and well-being through homeopathy. His contribution to the field was recognized in 2021 when he was made a Fellow of the Society of Homeopaths for his outstanding service to the profession.

In this episode, we explore Marcus’s journey from aspiring rockstar to acclaimed homeopath. Diving into the science and art of homeopathy as a ‘magical’ energy medicine system for self-healing, we studied some basic universal principles - such as ‘like cures like’ - and historical and alchemical roots of homeopathy that make this ancient wisdom body effective. Providing an inspiring and compelling case for the ancient practice's relevance and efficacy in modern times, Marcus addressed some of the common doubts and fears about homeopathy - and fears that can come up around embracing more ‘magical’ healing methods - making a stand for trusting our wisdom on what’s ‘Truth’. He also offered practical advice on how listeners can incorporate homeopathy into their lives.

What You’ll Learn from this Episode:

Homeopathic principles say that illness is really caused by ‘suppression’ - differing to mainstream medicine, which often suppresses symptoms without addressing underlying issues, homeopathy seeks to treat the root cause, leading to true healing
Homeopathy empowers individuals to heal themselves by aligning them with their internal truth and natural healing capacities, encouraging trust in personal intuition and holistic health practices
The remedies work on the law of similars (‘like cures like’) and, traditionally, involve highly diluted substances that retain the energetic essence of the original material, akin to principles in quantum physics (although science is still ‘catching up’ to homeopathy)
Remedies in effect take us back to times in our lives where we experienced trauma, so that we can ‘choose again’ - whether to release the trauma or remain holding it
Homeopathy is also something that’s been doubted and ridiculed as ‘pseudo-science’ which can have Secret Witches feel the fear of being judged as ‘lunatics’ if they work with it - and yet, when we try it, our embodied experience often reveals that it works
All the healing wisdom we need is already within us - we are not broken, we have all we need already - if homeopathy calls to us, we can try it out for ourselves and live into our own experience of it with an open mind and trust of our inner wisdom and truth
Beginners can start with homeopathic kits and guides like Marcus's book "Homeopathy at Home," gradually exploring remedies for common ailments while understanding the principles and subtleties of holistic healing.
