Gateway to Homeopathy: A Guided Study Group Curriculum

 

 

 

Kate:  This is the Practical Homeopathy® Podcast Episode Number 92 with Joette Calabrese.

 

Joette:  This is Joette Calabrese, and I’d like to welcome you to the Practical Homeopathy® Podcast. Women and men worldwide are taking back control of their families’ health and learning how to heal their bodies naturally, safely and effectively. So, if you’re hungry to learn more, you’ve come to the right place. Stay tuned as we give you the tools — and the inspiration you need — as I share my decades of experience and knowledge using this powerful medicine we call homeopathy.

 

 

Kate:  Hi, everyone. Welcome back to the podcast. Today, Joette and I are going to be talking about the flu. It's been going around, it's that time of the year, and we're going to talk about: how do you know it's the flu, what remedies to use, and some other things.

 

So, Joette, why don't you get us started?

 

Remedies for flu

 

Joette:  Well, one of the things that I want to mention is that when someone has a bad cold, they often think it's the flu. It may not be the flu, and sometimes it's difficult to decipher. Also, with allergies, sometimes folks get allergies, and they can't tell whether or not it's a cold, or it is allergies, et cetera.

 

One of the distinguishing factors is when someone has allergies, generally, they don't get a fever; generally, they don't have achy joints and bones. That's more related to colds and flus. We can distinguish that. We can put that aside.

 

We can also say that if no one else around you is sick with the similar symptoms, that it is more likely your allergies rather than what's going around in your community, in your home, in your church, et cetera.

 

Now, to distinguish between the cold and flu — that can be rather difficult. The flu is, for lack of a better way of describing it, a gobsmacking cold. I mean, you're really sick with the flu, generally.

 

A cold is annoying, it's uncomfortable, but you can generally push yourself through it, and get to your daily tasks. But influenza, generally speaking, really brings you down and assigns you to your bed — or at least, the sofa — for several days. So that helps a little bit.

 

Kate:  One of the things that can help you determine whether or not it's the flu or something else — or walk you through what to use for the flu versus allergies or coughs or colds — is the free flu chart. That will actually pop up on Joette’s website when you go to joettecalabrese.com. It will pop up and ask you if you want to download that free flowchart. You can just click on that and you'll have access to that. [As of this recording in February 2020. Click on this link, if the flu chart does not pop up on the main page.] That will walk you through what remedies to use in each of those situations whether it's flu or a cold.

 

That's one good resource. I know we have some other resources that we're going to talk about in a little bit.

 

Okay, so let's get started. Let's flesh out what to do if you truly do have the flu then, Joette.

 

Joette:  Okay,
