Ep 409: Giving back to the community - with Raquel Dutra

37 minutes

Raquel Dutra discovered homeopathy during her university years in Brazil and has since made it an essential part of her family and community life. After the birth of her fourth child, she began offering a week of free consultations each month, a practice that has grown into over a hundred sessions with strong, positive feedback from clients. She speaks about the importance of community, the practitioner-client relationship, and why home prescribers benefit from working with professional homeopaths. Drawing from her background in the arts, Raquel brings creativity and sensitivity into her practice, extending homeopathy into every aspect of her daily life, from family care to pets and gardening.
