A Beginning Student Learns
to use Case Studies to Understand Remedies.
A beginning homeopathy student has found Aconite as a remedy to help her child. Ellen and the student review the process of looking for the remedy. Then, the student looks for symptoms in two cases described by Rajan Sankaran (If you are a private student of Ellen’s, she will send you a scan of these cases.)
