A moss remedy from Bryaceae
Case by Jonathan Stallick
A lady in her 60’s who had an abusive mother and who always told she would never amount to anything. When she first came to me had to think about every question for a long time. There is a childish element to her. She lives with her husband who she needs to protect her. She had marked agoraphobia especially around big buildings. She needs her space. Great lack of confidence. She also had chronic eczema which was worse from central heating and sun. She also suffered from allergy to chestnut tree blossom. She studied homeopathy but had little confidence in learning and giving a talk terrified her.
Analysis
I felt that she was effectively in a state of shock from her childhood and looking at the mosses I saw a moss remedy from Bryaceae which I though fitted beautifully.
She is in a situation of deep shock where there is dependency. This lady felt she couldn’t survive without her husband. Her childhood abuse had left her in a state of shock. She had responded well to Silicon series minerals, an Aluminium compound remedy. Also her fear around tall buildings and need for space made me think of a moss around trees. The description fitted well and the phase 2, sub phase 2 fitted her agoraphobia and weak
dependency.
Follow up
She has been on that remedy for 4 months and has taken 4 doses of 30c. She had an aggravation of eczema and that has now receded to nothing. She also had no allergy to the chestnut blossom this year and the sun didn’t affect her skin. She is more confident and has less fears about things. I feel this remedy is working long and deep. I have decided to go to the 200c potency once a month for a while.
In the past I gave her an Aluminium compound remedy which I thought really helped her. But she came back to me recently and I felt nothing had really shifted on a deep level.
