Over the last several months, Surfin4u.com has completed numerous Web query searches on the topic of "Gelsemium". This article presents many of these findings for your awareness. If you would like Surfin4u.com to find information for you on the Web, click here to read about our search products.

Summary

Gelsemium is well known for treating the type of flu that leaves you exhausted and the ache all over feeling. This is sometimes called "Southern" flu.

Remedy Source

The full name of this remedy is Gelsemium Sempervirens. It is a vegetable source taken from the jessamine plant. Dr. John H. Henry created this remedy.

Key Uses

The keynote of Gelsemium is that the patient complains of being tired and exhausted. This is complete exhaustion, mentally, physically, and emotionally.


Candidate Symptoms (Remedy Portrait)

One may experience one or more of these symptoms but not likely all or even a majority of them:

Tired/achy flu, fever, diarrhea, upper respiratory infections, stage fright, fatigue, mono, headache, vertigo, overall weakness, "Southern" flu (just want to rest due to being worn out), trembling, tremors, cramps, sleeplessness due to upcoming challenge, excitement or test, ear ache, backache between the shoulders

Dosage

Gelsemium works well in 30C potency and may be repeated as necessary. Potencies from 6X to 30C may be self indicated. Potencies higher than 30C should only be considered after consulting a professional homeopathic practitioner.

Relationship With Other Homeopathic Remedies

Gelsemium may be used with other remedies but it is very complementary to Argentum Nitricum.

H1N1 Virus - 2009 vs. 1918 - Homeopathy #1 Treatment


John Benneth's video on this subject is presented here by Surfin4u.com. We believe you should see this video as it relates to the H1N1 virus outbreak we are currently experiencing and what may be learned from history. In 1918 there was a terrible outbreak of the H1N1 virus and homeopathic remedies played an important part in reducing the number of deaths in that epidemic.

John Benneth is an independent researcher on homeopathy. For more information on homeopathy please visit John Benneth's Website at scienceofhomeopathy.com. For more information on Surfin4u.com services, please visit our Website at Surfin4u.com.

Note: Above photo shows plasma discharge from a solution of Cuprum 30C homeopathic remedy. You can very well see the dynamic nature of this very dilute solution.

Tai Chi for Beginners


This past week I've been introduced to Tai Chi by way of David Carradine's Chi Energy Workouts for Beginners. This DVD contains two programs: Chi Kung and Tai Chi. Chi Kung is the precursor to Tai Chi and is one of the most powerful ways to self heal and rejuvenate the body. Tai Chi combines Chi Kung, philosophy and Shaolin Martial Arts into one of the most gentle, holistic and efficient ways to promote health and body movement.

Currently, my focus is on the Tai Chi workout. I've searched the Web for several days trying to find a short clip from this DVD or one comparable to it. I found many Tai Chi clips, and some were for beginners, but I did find one David Carradine narrated video clip from his "Chi Energy Workouts for Beginners".

Surfin4u.com is happy to bring you this clip. Enjoy... If you would like to know more about Surfin4u.com, visit our Website at Surfin4u.com.
