Repertory - Kent Law of Similars The substance that causes a certain illness in a healthy individual, in a small quantity would treat the illness in an affected individual Similars example

Onion causes eyes to water a few drops of the diluted juice under the tongue will bring relief (Allium Cepa) Provings

Healthy people write down symptoms from taking a substance.

They are given diluted drops of the same substance and the symptoms would go away. Homeo - similar Pathy - suffering Hering’s Law of Cure

Symptoms leave in a distinct way.

Top of your head to the bottom of your feet.

Inside of your body to the outside of your body.

The reverse order of when the symptoms showed Hering’s Cross of symptoms

Histopathological - location and tissue (6C)

Functional symptoms - characteristics of pain, sensory, fever (9-15C)

Individual characteristics - response to hot/cold, timetable, position, rest/movement, behavioral (9-15C)

Concomitant symptoms - Personal reactional mode, sleep disorders, food cravings/aversions (30C) Dilutions

Lower dilutions - more superficial, more acute, take more often

Higher dilutions - deeper, more chronic, take once a day or once a week Frequency/Energy Every organ, bone, tissue, or cell has its own resonant frequency, its own sound. Together, they create a unified or composite frequency with its own sound, like the instruments of an orchestra coming together Frequencies

Low Frequency - Bone, skin, muscles

Medium Frequency - Blood, lymphatic

High Frequency - Neurological, emotional Dilution and potency The more diluted the substance is, the more potent it is, because there is less physical substance and more frequency/energy. Immune system and the brain

Parasympathetic - Th1 lymphocytes, makes slower

Sympathetic - Th2 lymphocytes, makes faster

Imbalance occurs when either Th1 or Th2 is blocked Potency and Dilution

1 part substance to 100 parts solvent = 1C

1 part of that mixture to 100 parts solvent = 2C

1 part of that mixture to 100 parts solvent = 3C

1 part of that mixture to 100 parts solvent = 4C Potency and Dilution

1 part substance to 10 parts solvent = 1X

1 part of that mixture to 10 parts solvent = 2X

1 part of that mixture to 10 parts solvent = 3X
