Jasmin!! This is wonderful!! I adore your sense of humour and highly descriptive writing. This is a fantastic article and it makes so much sense!

As a classical homeopath, I can add that it's also in alignment with one of the main principles of homeopathy: suppression is NOT GOOD. We don't believe in suppressing desires (within moderation) or symptoms (i.e. taking sleeping pills because you can't sleep, or anti-depressants for depression). Instead, we eliminate the reason for not sleeping or feeling depressed. Otherwise, your vital force ("chi" in Chinese medicine) tries harder to make you not sleep or feel depressed because the reason is still there. So you remove the pills and you still have the symptoms, only you've weakened your vital force and are actually in worse shape than before.

Oh, dear. I could dive into THAT in detail (one of these days, I WILL writ about it!). The short version is that I totally agree with you!!

Thanks for a great article on a super important topic!!! And thank you sooo much for choosing HHH as its home!! I appreciate you! 💜
