Please notify me if you have them. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Essential Oils <\/strong><br>Especially champhor, tea tree oil, peppermint, and similar strong oils. Coconut oil is very benign and wont cause a problem usually.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Strong odors <\/strong><br>Including paints, mothballs, perfumes, colognes, solvents, and similar strong odorous substances<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>EMF (electromagnetic fields) <\/strong><br>Strong sources of electromagnetic energy, especially during sleep, such as nearby cell towers, electric blankets, Wi-Fi, microwaves, cell phones, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Herbal medicines<\/strong> <br>Including Swedish Bitters, Pau d&#8217;Arco tea, Sunrider products, KM products or similar.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Medicinal herbs and stimulants<\/strong><br>Including marijuana, coffee, X-rays, MRI scans, and acupuncture treatments.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Some Pharmaceutical drugs<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Other homeopathic remedies<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Care and Storage of the Remedy Bottle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">Keep the remedy bottle <strong>away from contamination<\/strong>, sunlight, strong EMF sources, and X-rays. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Do <strong>not open<\/strong> the bottle near other open remedy bottles. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Avoid opening it in the presence of <strong>strong odors<\/strong> (listed above). <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Unless preserved with <strong>at least 20% alcohol<\/strong>, the remedy should be <strong>refrigerated<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. What You Will Need to Take the Remedy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">  Before dosing, gather the following items:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Your Remedy Solution Bottle (RSB)<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">Provided by the pharmacy. This may be:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">a 4\u201312 oz (120\u2013360 ml) bottle, or<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">a 1\u20132 oz (30\u201370 ml) dropper bottle.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>A cup large enough for 4 oz (120 ml)<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">One of the following:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">\u201cHot\u201d paper cups (without wax),<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">disposable plastic cups (rinsed), or<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">a ceramic or glass cup sterilized before each dose by sunlight or boiling water.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>A steel spoon<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">Tablespoon or teaspoon, as advised. <br>Rinse with hot water after use or sterilize in sunlight. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>A book<\/strong> (used as the surface for succussion)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. When to Take the Remedy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">Ideally, wait <strong>30 minutes before or after<\/strong> eating or drinking anything except water. This is helpful but <strong>not critical<\/strong>. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">The <strong>best time<\/strong> is before sleep, unless it interferes with sleep. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Any time of day is acceptable. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. How to Take Each Dose<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Follow these steps <strong>exactly and consistently<\/strong>. <strong>Precision is not critical, but consistency is.<\/strong> Take the remedy the same way each time so we can accurately adjust the dosage if needed.:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Succuss the Remedy Solution Bottle (RSB)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Firmly strike the bottle ___ times, as if dropping it from approximately <strong>60 cm (2 feet)<\/strong> onto a firm but soft surface such as a book. <strong>Prepare the water<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Fill a fresh or sterilized cup with approximately <strong>4 oz (120 ml)<\/strong> of purified water. <strong>Add the remedy<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Add ___ teaspoons from the RSB, or ___ drops if using a dropper bottle. Stir for <strong>10 seconds<\/strong>. <strong>Take the dose<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Take <strong>ONE spoonful<\/strong> (tablespoon or teaspoon, as advised). Swish in the mouth, then swallow. <strong>Discard the remainder<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Discard the remaining water in the cup. <em>Your plants love it.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">I will advise you on the number of succussions and the number of drops or teaspoons.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Is the Remedy Working?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>If you experience dramatic improvement OR worsening OR a clear change of symptoms, do NOT take another dose until you feel the last dose is starting to wear off.<\/strong> This means no further change in symptoms or general signs of health. Over time, you will learn to judge for yourself how often to take the remedy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">The remedy is working if you see improvement in any of your symptoms <strong>AND<\/strong> improvement in any of the following <strong>General Signs of Health<\/strong>:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Sleep &amp; energy<\/strong> (better sleep; wake more refreshed; improved energy)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Sense of well-being<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Clarity of mind<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Calmness<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Adaptability<\/strong> (better mental\/emotional\/physical adaptability to your environment; less sensitivity to allergens or stressors)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">If symptoms merely change without improvement in general health, the remedy may be close but not optimal. I will advise you. If any of these improve\u2014even if other symptoms temporarily worsen\u2014you are on the right track.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. What to Do If Symptoms Worsen or Energy Feels Too Strong<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">If symptoms worsen or you feel slightly overstimulated: <strong>stop taking the remedy<\/strong> until improvement occurs. There is <strong>no harm<\/strong> in this. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">It usually means the remedy is correct but the <strong>potency is slightly too strong<\/strong>. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Call me so I can help adjust the potency or answer questions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. How to Decrease Potency<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Potency may be decreased by one or more of the following:<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">Decreasing number of succussions for each dose (<strong>minimum 2 succussions are advisable<\/strong>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Reducing the number of drops<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Using more water in the cup<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Using a second cup of water with a teaspoon from the first cup and dosing the same way from the second cup. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Even three or more cups may be used based on sensitivity. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. How to Increase Potency<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Potency may be increased by increasing the number of succussions or increasing the number of drops. After taking the remedy for four weeks at an LM level, I may advise you how to increase the potency at that level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">This can be done by increasing the strength of your dose by adding another drop each week. For example: 3 drops for weeks 1\u20134, 4 drops for week 5, 5 drops for week 6, 6 drops for week 7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"><strong>You should contact me before going up to the next potency.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Contact me if you see no further improvement <\/strong>at the LM level you are taking so we can decide what the next step in your treatment is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. Acute Conditions During Treatment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"><strong>If an acute (self-limiting) condition like a cold, injury, etc. arises please contact me. <\/strong>You may try increasing the potency and frequency of your remedy but if you don\u2019t see improvement after a few doses, stop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Unless you find that it is helping quickly, discontinue the LM remedy until this new temporary illness resolves itself. I may have to find an acute remedy that you will take temporarily until it resolves, when you can resume the chronic remedy. <strong>Feel comfortable seeking conventional treatment if you think it necessary.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">11. Finishing a Remedy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">When you are finished with a remedy you might see a slight temporary return of the symptoms that it cleared. This is the action of the remedy, not a return of the illness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Otherwise, if you see no improvement on the next level after a couple of weeks <br>OR your symptoms change significantly (usually older symptoms return which is a good sign) <br>OR all your symptoms have cleared, you may be through with that remedy. But it might be advisable to take it on a maintenance basis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Contact me for advice.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">12. Substances and Obstacles to Cure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">You will see the best results if you reduce or eliminate the obstacles to cure that have been mentioned including other non-prescribed medicinal treatments and substances such as herbs, drugs, coffee, tobacco, alcohol, etc. Don\u2019t stop them immediately but taper off slowly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Work closely with your doctor, especially if you are taking a prescription drug.<\/strong> The remedy should improve your health so you may need less of the drug. <strong>Only alter the dosage of your prescription drug with your doctor\u2019s advice.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Be Happy, Be Healthy.<\/strong><br>Roger Barr, <a href=\"https:\/\/canhealyourself.com\/website_0fe50126\/contact-2\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"99\">Contact<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These instructions are important.
