About me
A Hungarian woman in Homeopathic College…
When I was a child, I was always a bit rebel and I have always been interested in sciences. My favourite subject was biology of course and I have always wanted to be a vet; but life has changed and I have worked for many years in different industries, but it has always involved working with people. My father was an MD and ran a busy GP, and my mother was a nurse on his side. During my childhood I used to hear from my parents about sicknesses, treatments, examinations and drugs, occasionally these drugs’ or treatments’ side effects. There were sometimes successes but bad occasions happened too. Conventional Medicine was part of our life. Later, as my grandparents were getting older and became ill, they took many drugs, yet my father hasn’t treated them holistically. He treated their diabetes and their blood pressure, but he never realised when people had imbalances (physical, emotional, or spiritual) in their lives it could negatively affect their overall health.
I recognised that Conventional Medicine has its own dogmas and paradigms, but I’ve also learned that learning and understanding medical sciences and basic physiological knowledge is necessary indeed. I also had the feeling that something was wrong, something was missing. I did not get the feeling that I would be able to believe in the allopathic treatments and its philosophy. It was like a bit of a rebellion against my family. Meanwhile I became a mother. Health and wellness have become more than my passion, it became very important to me I have familiarised with herbal remedies, essential oils, and I started learning alternative medicine, auriculotherapy, and kinesiology, Bach Flower remedies, Reiki, energetic medicine, massage therapies, Schüssler’s Tissue Salts and biofeedback as well. I started giving my family herbal remedies, homeopathic remedies and occasionally I used essential oils. I used to treat them with biofeedback as well, but slowly I realised, that it has its limitations.
I was working in a busy Complementary Healthcare Clinic, and I was able to collect different experiences and realised how stress has an effect on people. I was doing more treatments as a biofeedback technician, and I treated some with Auriculotherapy and I collected lots of experiences. I met patients who suffered from their medications’ side effects, and others with dozens of allopathic medicines or somebody who was under drugs’ influence. Nonetheless I am very happy to treat my family with homeopathy and I thought that I should learn it, because every skill that I have learned and practiced has their limitations. These limitations can be either a physical treatment’s area or could not affect the deeper, mental causes, behaviour or those things that are caused in patients by being vaccinated. I never stopped my education; I always updated my actual profession and was looking for a way to increase my professional skills. Then I reached a point, where I knew that I needed something deeper, more effective, which is more complementary and could affect in deeper levels.
During my study in Hungary, we attached Homeopathy, so I had basic knowledge about it and I acknowledged that I need to know more and I tried to read all available literature. I knew that I needed more knowledge about Homeopathy; I shall study it, because it isn’t a simple science and I knew that I needed to increase my practical skills as well. When I moved to the UK, it was obvious to me that I would like to study Homeopathy. In my country Homeopathy can only be practiced by Medical Doctors. Another reason why I started learning Homeopathy was the Queen’s and the Royal Family’s loyalty towards Homeopathy and unconditional support. Therefore, I realised that this subject is more than a few weekend courses, this is a real science and gives deeper knowledge than anything else what I am familiar with and because Hahnemann spent his whole life with developing Homeopathy, increasing it. Now I am a fourth-year student and I am closer and closer to complete my studies. I realise that studying homeopathy is a lifelong journey, it never ends, and this gives it an incredible and borderless happiness feeling that I will not stop my study, only I could study more in a different way through my personal experiences and patients’ feedbacks. I really enjoy it and seeking forward to new challenges.
I am a single mother and I live with my two daughters and I work full time and this bursary was a huge help to me because when I got it, I was in my third year and I was able to start my clinical hours. I already have two clients; both of them are under treatments. These cases aren’t attending to the Clinic, both of them are my private patients; I treat them as a student homeopath under supervision. I also was unable to spend more hours in my workplace doing overtime and I spent this extra time on my studies. I have already joined two online webinars; one of them was the Effective Hay-fever Prevention with Homeopathy and another one was the Effective treatment and prevention for cold-sores and herpes. Both of them were presented by a London based homeopath who runs a busy practice and has huge and effective experiences on these topics. I already joined some external Clinical hours, organised one of our homeopath-tutor and it was again a big experience and a huge possibility to develop one special medical condition treated by homeopathy. This event was very useful, because the main topic was mental illnesses. In the average student clinic these cases are very rare, but now we were able to follow more patients’ cases and their healing processes.
I was able to start planning my professional website, but it isn’t ready yet. I have new ideas every single day and I constantly change and update it. I also had a chance to buy a Sulis Remedy maker; it has been offered from bulk, so I was able to gain a huge price drop. I was also able to extend my personal homeopathic library, there were a few expensive books on my wish list, and I waited for the bargain price. I also took a part in one Remedy Proving. This gave me a different point of view, helped to understand and recognise one unknown remedy’s mechanism, how it worked and how it has changed me, even if I did not know what the remedy was. I know that these are small steps to build up my professional career as a homeopath, but I can see my future clearly and I feel very confident about it. I will miss all my college hours and lessons, but I don’t have a fear about the future.
