An introduction
I meet a lot of people who are living busy, seemingly happy lives, but they know something is missing. They have lost the connection with their soul and their true selves. This lost connection manifests emotionally in conditions like anxiety, depression, or not knowing what their life purpose is. It also manifests physically in a range of symptoms, from digestive issues to cancer to heart disease. These issues affect every aspect of life from personal happiness, to relationships to work performance. People often tell me they feel trapped in their situation, in their health history and in their states of mind.
They don’t have to be…
Through a comprehensive, scientific system of medicine and counselling, I help people eliminate the blockages that are preventing them from making this essential connection with their true selves. By addressing everything from inherited predispositions to life traumas to false beliefs, the true you will begin to emerge in ways that you never thought possible. When these root causes are addressed, there is no longer a need for you to experience the physical and emotional symptoms that have arisen to get your attention.

What is Heilkunst
Heilkunst is a system of medicine that improves health by treating the root causes of disease, rather than just masking or suppressing the symptoms. In Heilkunst, homeopathic remedies are used as part of a thorough process that addresses current issues as well as physical and emotional events that have affected the individual in the past. This process, called Sequential Treatment, works with the understanding that such events add up over time to contribute to dis-ease and any number of medical conditions. Homeopathic remedies are also used to treat inherited predispositions that can be significant contributors to health issues. Customized nutrition and lifestyle plans are included in the process as appropriate.
Heilkunst incorporates an understanding of the connections between our bodies, minds, souls and spirits in a way that other systems do not. The incredible power of Heilkunst lies in the fact that it is so comprehensive and that the treatment stems from an understanding of all that is part of life and therefore part of health. Health is not an abstract thing that is separate from life. In order to have life there must be a certain level of health and in order to achieve true health it is essential to understand that issues from physical, emotional and soul/spiritual sources all have an effect on dis-ease and symptoms.
The Heilkunst system was developed over 200 years ago by the founder of Homeopathy, Dr. Samuel Hahnemann and has been used to treat a variety of symptoms and conditions.

As you begin Heilkunst journey, it’s important to understand a little bit about the process and what’s involved in Heilkunst treatment.
The first thing I’d like to talk about is to explain to you a little bit about our life energy. If you can think of that thing that we all know we have that you cannot see under a microscope, that thing that animates us. We can call it many different things but for the purpose of this discuss I just want you to understand it as our life energy. That life energy is divided into two parts: the first side is sustentive side and the second side is generative side.
When you think of the word ‘sustentive,’ think of the word: sustain or creating balance or homeostasis. This is the side of our life energy that helps us to stay in balance and that we can balance through various methods, such as drinking enough water, getting enough sleep, eating well, exercising, etc. If we are low in vitamin C, our naturopath or our medical doctor might tell us to take some vitamin C to maintain that balance. And we’re all familiar with working on this sustentive side, because this is how we address ninety-nine percent of our health problems: by working on our sustentive side. There are many other types of practitioners who also focus on the sustentive side of our life energy, such as acupuncturists, chiropractors, reiki practitioners, osteopaths, even psychology and counseling addresses the sustentive side of our life energy. And so we’re all familiar with working there but the important thing to understand is that this other side of our life energy, called the generative side is equally important. And in Heilkunst we are working on both the sustentive side and the generative side of our life energy.
It’s important to understand that “true disease” actually originates on the generative side of our life energy. So we can do a lot of work over here, managing symptoms, improving our nutrition, improving our sleep, hydration, etc. But if we’re not addressing the roots behind those symptoms, then we’re not going to get to the “root cause” of the problem.
Another way of understanding symptoms and true disease is to think of the metaphor of a tree. Imagine a tree and the roots beneath the surface of the ground that we can’t see. Think of those as the root causes of the symptoms and conditions that we suffer from. And those root causes grow a disease tree until we see branches, leaves and flowers. And think of those branches, leaves, and flowers as the symptoms and conditions that we see. Whether those conditions are things like anxiety and depression — emotional diseases — or physical diseases like high cholesterol or tumors. Any of those conditions have deeper root causes that are really resident in the roots beneath the surface. So if you take a drug and it suppresses a symptom, that disease process will still manifest in the body at some point at a later date.
So if we want to get to those root causes beneath the surface then, we have to look at things like life traumas and inherited predispositions, which sit on that generative side of our life energy that I mentioned earlier. And once we can treat those, we can in effect kill that disease tree. And in this case, killing the tree is okay; it’s not a real tree it’s a disease tree.
