Natural Immunity for Coronavirus
Coronavirus Pandemic
React From Fear or Act From Love
Pandemics are not new. The World Health Organization has pronounced 14 pandemics since 1947. Recently we had the Swine flu in 2009. This COVID-19 virus is extremely dangerous for a small percentage of the population; the elderly or the immune compromised. The vast majority would suffer only mild symptoms plus the inconvenience of being quarantined if they were infected. Past pandemics have been more deadly but all have passed. This too shall pass. When faced with any situation, we can either react from fear or act from love. Fear responses are rarely positive and usually very destructive. Love responses are always right. So how do we act from Love with the Coronavirus? By keeping our Committed Benevolent Interest in ourselves, our family, friends and all humanity in the forefront of our minds. It means washing our hands with soap and water for 20-30 seconds even if we are young, strong and unafraid because we don’t know who we might pass this virus to. It now means not shaking hands, keeping a reasonable distance from each other and wiping down surfaces frequently with an alcohol based wipe or spray. If you are feeling sick stay home. If you get a fever or have difficulty breathing, call your doctor or contact me. In many cases you can FaceTime or video conference me. If you are not feeling well or you are a high risk individual don’t get on a bus, train, plane or ship.
Self-quarantining is not fun but could you imagine if you accidentally infected a high risk individual because you did not want to bother. If you are out in public areas and you happen to sneeze or cough, cover your nose or mouth with your elbow or tissue.
With this pandemic, Homeopaths are treating a lot of patients infected with Coronavirus. Doing the research of the common symptoms that have occurred in patients with this virus, Arsenicum album is the“genus epidemicus,” in other words, the most closely-fitting homeopathic remedy for the majority of people experiencing flu-like symptoms from exposure to this virus. Based on this information here are my suggestions:
If you are not on a constitutional remedy:
Arsenicum album 30C – take 1 dose (about 2 to 3 pellets) two to three times a day for two to three days if you are feeling like you are coming down with the flu, if you have traveled to a country with a lot of coronavirus cases, or if you are especially afraid or anxious and worried about getting sick with this illness.
Of course, stop taking this remedy if you don’t feel better from it after 1 to 2 days, and contact me (www.balnceintohealth.com) or another homeopath if you would like your particular symptoms specifically evaluated for another remedy. Additionally, if you are experiencing significant flu-like symptoms, contact your allopathic physician as well. Arsenicum album is available at most health food stores or online pharmacies.
If you are on a constitutional remedy:
Continue taking your remedy as prescribed. Your constitutional homeopathic remedy is the most beneficial prophylaxis against the flu and other illnesses. If you begin to experience flu symptoms from a recent trip or exposure, first, take a dose of your constitutional remedy. If that doesn’t help then begin dosing Arsenicum album 30C according to the directions above, and contact me as well as your allopathic physician. If you are not doing as well as you think you should be doing on your constitutional remedy, contact me for a homeopathic follow-up interview so we can determine if it is your most optimal lifetime remedy and we just need to change the potency, or if we need to change the remedy.
