An Elegant and Practical Form of Medicine ( rpettyus )
When I first saw the title, "Easy Homeopathy," it sounded like an oxymoron. After all, homeopathy is not easy: and I've been using it for 25 years!
But I was in for a very pleasant surprise. The book is certainly designed for the beginner, but there is plenty of meat for the more seasoned homeopath.
The book is arranged into three parts:
1. Getting started in homeopathy
2. The seven remedies that should be in every medicine cabinet
3. A short alphabetical list of common ailments with suggestions for which homeopathic remedies to use
The first part is not only good reading for the beginner, but is also good preparation for anyone visiting a homeopath for the first time. Some of the questions that you may be asked - "At what time of the day are your symptoms worse? Are there any foods that you hate? What is you favorite type of weather?" - often seem a bit odd, so it is good to know why the homeopath will ask.
Dr. Shalts explains the seven principles of homeopathy:
1. The Law of Similars
2. Provings
3. Individualized Treatments
4. The Single Remedy
5. The Minimal Dose
6. Potencies
7. Hering's Principles of Cure
There are plenty of anecdotes to keep the material fresh and interesting.
In Part 2 he lays out his seven remedies with amusing memory aids:
1. Aconite: He calls this the Homeopathic Emergency Services Unit
2. Arnica: This one is the Homeopathic Surgeon
3. Belladonna: The Homeopathic Pediatrician
4. Chamomilla: This one is called the Homeopathic Babysitter
5. Gelsemium: The Homeopathic Neurologist
6. Ignatia: This is the Homeopathic Therapist
7. Nux Vomica: The Homeopathic Gastroenterologist
This section is very well done, with charts to highlight similarities and differences between remedies.
Part 3 has the list of conditions, and in addition to advice about which remedies to use, Dr. Shalts also suggests other helpful products and, most importantly, when to seek professional help. Some books on homeopathy look a bit like cookery books, but this one enables you to start thinking like a homeopath.
This is an excellent book for the beginner, but there is also much for the more seasoned user. Although it is advertised as a first aid book, there is actually far more inside. Even if you already know something about natural medicine, you will likely find a lot to interest you in this well written, attractive and inexpensive book.
Highly recommended.

The Ultimate Guide to Homeopathy
"Easy Homeopathy" delivers what other homeopathic books only promise. It explains exactly what to do to quickly eliminate acute problems. Finally I can use homeopathic remedies myself! I've been looking for such a book for so many years! All these "Comprehensive" and "Complete" guides expect me to become a homeopath. But all I want is to be able to use homeopathic remedies right away. The book teaches in detail all the important characteristics of 7 main remedies useful for many conditions. And then it offers over 80 alternatives. The information is organized in numerous tables. Reading "Easy Homeopathy" is fun. Dr. Shalts offers many real -life examples. I also appreciated a "cheat sheet" provided at the end of the book. It directs you to most commonly indicated remedies for many acute conditions. Good job!
