The remedies are all made up by specific homeopathic pharmaceutical companies. So that all properly conditioned and legal. So when we're looking at finding the right remedy for you, for usual symptoms, we would be looking at the location of the symptom. Where is it? Does it move? Does it go from place to place does it go in, out up or down?

That's the extension of the pain if you like, and what would make it worse and what would make it better? Are there other symptoms that are involved with the symptom? So to find the right symptom, the more information that you have helps you locate the right symptom. And also what's very important is your mood. What are you thinking at this time? Does it make you angry?

Does it make you sad? Does it make you agitated? Does it make you short with others around you? What is your mood and emotion during the symptom? And of course, when we look at your sleeping patterns, what time is it that you wake? What are you thinking about when you wake?

What are you feeling? How often do you like? Do you wake hot or cold or thirsty or hungry? What else is happening at that same time you need to can collect this information in order to look at the remedies. So once you've got these remedies, we look in a book that lists the symptoms and how you might feel the symptom. And this book is called a repertory.

It will give you a list of remedies to check out for your particular symptom. And then from that list, you then choose the remedy that's most appropriate for you. So the book of remedies is called Materia Medica. You can then choose the closest one that matches your symptoms. Now in the following information in this course, we've provided lots of sleep symptoms and remedy information for you to look at so that you don't need to purchase these books at this time. So let's have a quick word about potency and dose.

So the dose is amazing. of times you give the remedy one dose is one pellet or tablet depending how it comes. And the potency is the strength of the remedy. So for these first aid applications, we're looking at using a 30 c potency. So how to give a dose, when you give one dose, you just suck one pellet, you let it dissolve inside your mouth. And then you watch and wait and see what happens.

What we're asking for is your body to change something to react in a different way. So that's why we must wait and see if your body has got the message. If the symptom stays the same, then give another dose in half an hour. If the symptom changes, then watch and wait, because it might be that it's time for a different remedy. Or it might be that the body and symptom improves. And the body holds it for a while, and then it reoccurs.

So you need to give another dose of the same remedy. So I hope that's a useful introduction to homeopathy. When you go on now you'll see more information about how to use this.
