For all of you Homeopaths out there who realise that there is more to homeopathic healing than just finding the similimum comprised of a handful of physical symptoms aligned with a few Kentian mentals, this book is an eye-opener - Dare to be challenged.

Jill Turland, founding Editor and a long term contributor to the Similia journal since pioneering her guilt releasing Very High Potencies back in the early 1990s, has written a very usable book on six of her most promising and often used remedies.

From a sound introduction of her unique approach, which shows obvious wisdom in the fields of chiropractic, endocrinology and emotional psychotherapy, as well as homeopathy, she gives a clear explanation of how she views the development of chronic disease, and how to resolve it. In her words, ‘Attitudes and harmful beliefs and emotions are often thousands of years building into the cell memory. We are not going to release them without great power and enlightenment going to the patient. Very High Potencies carry just this ability.’

Each remedy (Conium, Hydrastis, Hypericum, Ignatia, Ledum and Staphisagria) has a clear and detailed explanation of the origin of the remedy personality. This is followed by ‘Physical Signs’ to help identify the cases, ‘Conditions Benefited By’ and a helpful ‘Differential Diagnosis’ that introduces  another twelve remedies throughout the book. There are also various snippets from actual case histories and this whets the appetite for more - I hear that there is another book (Getting Back On Track), based predominantly on case studies, soon to be reprinted.

Jill Turland’s book is written in a numbered point form, 177 in total. I was at first a little puzzled by this format but as I got used to it, found it extremely useful when working with my clients - very easy to find reference origins when double checking notes.

If you have clients who are suffering from, as well as other chronic conditions, chiropractic adjustments that don’t remain adjusted, endocrine imbalances that won’t allow themselves to be resolved or emotional/psychological issues that remain, no matter how many counselling sessions or treatment regimes are tried, Jill Turland’s ‘A Miracle A Day’ is a must read.

Comments and praise for Getting Back On Track:

'This is a book you will want to keep handy all the time. Jill Turland, Australian homeopath, explains why our present health system can never live up to expectations. Her easy-to-read research combines homeopathy with the quantum physics of mind and emotions, empowering all to find true healing.'

'I so wish to tell you how wonderful, informative, helpful, enlightening and inspiring your book is to me! I learn from it constantly, it has changed my life. You have opened up a wonderful world to me, and it is a beautiful one, full of care, love, light, and encouragement. My husband is suffering badly with bi-polar, exascerbated by a car accident three years ago. In fact, it has been a very difficult time for me and our two boys.

'If it wasn't for your book, I would not be understanding of this, and most likely have left him in a sad and character-destroyed state! He is not ready to accept professional help and is mostly in denial, having built a very big wall around himself and now my fifteen-year-old doesn't like being at home. I will continue to help him find himself and get above the fear, ego, abandonment, paranoia and lack of self worth. I believe in your research, Jill, for it is logic. Thank you so much.'
