Healing ancestral & intergenerational trauma
The healing power of ancestral trauma
Ancestral trauma seems to be the buzz phrase at the moment, and for good reason. The 20th and 21st Centuries have produced some of the most dark and traumatic times that humanity has lived through. It seems that we are in constant conflict, either as nations, groups within society, personal relationships or families, and is what needs to be cured before humanity can evolve to the next level of consciousness.
I am seeing a significant rise in this type of case in clinic and I believe this is because humanity is reaching a crossroads; not the Armageddon-type version which the media, politicians and schools like to peddle, but a shift in consciousness as we become more enlightened and empowered.
Some trauma was - and is - is too heavy to resolve in the moment and the best we can do at that time - possibly to survive - is to suppress and store trauma energetically in the subconscious and/or physical tissues until and if it is safer to process and resolve. Ancestral trauma can skip one or more generations and is, in my experience, why there is so much awareness of this. Be assured that the body in it's incredible wisdom always knows what it's doing and ranks your survival as a priority, over anything you think is more important.
Ancestral trauma can present in many ways, for example, a history of abusive or adverse childhood experiences, narcissistic behaviour, mental health conditions, self-sabotage patterns, fertility problems, and much more.
A real life case study
My first exposure to ancestral trauma came in my second year at the College of Practical Homeopathy, London, 30 years ago. Students were introduced to in-person, supervised case-taking, which included a 3-part video-recorded case. The recorded case related to a patient in the College's student clinic who, at time of booking, was asked if the consultations could be recorded for teaching purposes. This was because it was an unusual case - that of Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, and for which she refused conventional treatment.
What followed was an incredible story of a woman who, through gentle, deep-acting remedies - and the revelatory dreams that followed (the subconscious often releases trauma through the safety of dream state) - healed from this sometimes fatal dis-ease. During the first three sessions, her energy soared, the glands in her neck normalised, she became more creative, and discovered she had been adopted. As she unravelled her family history, she was reunited with her birth family, from whom she learned that her ancestors were survivors of the the Holocaust (one her grandparents' prisoner numbers came to her in a series of vivid dreams). It is a story that never ceases to amaze me to this day. She went on to become a Homeopath and, to my knowledge, remains well.
This case demonstrates the healing power of dis-ease. As a Homeopath, we learn to perceive symptoms - however serious' the named condition is - as messages from the body's vital force, which we learn to translate into remedies known to help clients with similar symptoms. Rather than manage and suppress symptoms only, skilful remedy selection enables the body to move through the layers of trauma. Sometimes, other therapies are needed around Homeopathy to help clients release process long held trauma, for example EDMR, Counselling, Massage, Reiki or Healing.
Also included in the Phoenix Homeopathy package are remedies to help ease the body off of red alert with gentle adrenal support and relaxation techniques, to restore natural, restorative sleep.
Are you ready to rise from the ashes of your trauma, and begin your journey of enlightenment?

The Phoenix Homeopathy package
When you choose to work with me, be assured that I bring the best of Homeopathy to you, and over 25 years' experience of helping people on their journey to health. Our time together creates and holds space for you to begin to share your story. This is why each package comprises 3 x 90 minute consultations - the process takes time.
Expert and intuitive case taking enables the the layers of trauma to emerge safely and then acknowledged with gentle, individualised and deep-acting remedies. Skilfully selected remedies enable you to move through obstacles to clarity and wellness.
Homeopathy doesn't force change; it is a catalyst for change - like a light being shone on unresolved trauma - but the choice always remains with you.
Included in the package are resources to support you between consultations, and a weekly progress check by WApp or phone within clinic hours. If we need to augment treatment - and sometimes this is required - additional remedies, p&p and time will be agreed at the time.
While I can't promise a quick fix, clients usually see noticeable results within the first three sessions, but, of course, each case is unique.
I look forward to helping you bring light to where there was once darkness.
