Oh dear Jotte,I am very happy to visit your blogs coincidentaly.we are of same age and your eyes are like true homeopath.I was thinking that there is no future of homeopathy in america but now I can say that it will work now.I am Dr. ROHINI from INDIA,practising since 15 years and I am keenly interested in the same.let me wish you good luck.be in contact.my e-mail I.D. is ronatrivedi71@rediffmail.com.bye.ROHINI.
Dear Rohini, Thank you for your kind words. Yes, homeopathy is alive in the U.S. Even orthodox doctors are begining to take a look at it! Last year I completed a 3 year post grad program through the British Institute of Homeopathy where Dr. Ramakrishnan of Madras was our esteemed teacher. His program brings post graduate students to his hospital to Madras to do clinical wrk there. Unfortunately, because of the recent market changes, it was canceled due to poor enrollment. It is my aim to get there as soon as the program is up and running again. It’s generally understood that India has some of the finest homeopaths and clinical settings in the world. I would love to hear about your work. Clinic? Hospital? Private practice?
Warm regards, Joette
Respected Dr.Jotte ,
I am very impressed with your work and I must confess these kind of works will really inspire young homeopaths who think there is no future of homeopathy in North America.
I am a 19yrs old female currently pursuing my graduation from British institute of homeopathy , I am devoted follower of homeopathy and I think that all of the homeopaths around the globe should work together to once again bring homeopathy on the top as it was before , I am quite sure that if people like you would be there to promote classical homeopathy then we are not far away from our goal.
I also agree with Ms. Rohini about your eyes they really give a look of homeopath
Good luck, Please be in contact my email is maryhomeo_89.2008@yahoo.com plz reply
Hello Nausheen, Thank you for your kind words. I have the same aspirations as you. We need young, old, American, Indian…in sum, many working from each little corner of the world . My personal passion is to inspire all folks to take up enough homeopathy to do a little good in the world. I once wrote in an article…”Take the time to do some small thing that may or may not be noticed. Arnica montana to a bird with an injured wing. Rhus tox to an elderly neighbor with arthritis. Homeopathy makes the world a softer, more hospitable place.”
I an happy with your choice of schools. BIH offers a fine homeopathy education from afar.
My best to you in your future. Joette
