## Resource

Melanie Hahnemann has been judged for generations — especially after Hahnemann’s death. In Episode 105, we revisit the romance, the rumors, and the real historical stakes behind her legacy — including the moment that complicates the easy labels: what Hahnemann asked of her, and what came next. Strange, Rare & Peculiar is a weekly podcast with Denise Straiges and Alastair Gray of the Institute for the Advancement of Homeopathy and the Academy of Homeopathy Education. This season, we’re focusing on truth — what it means to Aude Sapere (“dare to know”) in homeopathy today. From Hahnemann’s original insights to the realities of modern practice, research, and education, Denise and Alastair bring over 50 years of experience to conversations that challenge assumptions and invite curiosity. 🎧 If you’re ready to look deeper — beyond trends, beyond opinion — join the conversation and rediscover what homeopathy truly is. Where homeopathy lives and breathes.
