In this episode, Denise and Alastair begin with stories of love in homeopathy — from Hahnemann’s marriages to the many professional partnerships that have shaped the field — and move into a deeper discussion about chronic disease and clinical responsibility. Using autoimmune cases as a lens, they explore: What it means to “know what needs to be cured” Why not every remedy acts on the same depth The difference between acute intervention and long-term chronic management When to prescribe — and when doing nothing is the right decision The risks of superficial training and casual prescribing They also reflect on the evolution of homeopathic education, accreditation, and why serious clinical training matters. At its heart, this episode is about loving homeopathy enough to practice it safely. 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.
