I love reading through all of my repertories and collecting specific examples of rubrics (symptoms descriptions) which are going to be useful for you as a first aid prescriber and for me as a homeopath

One of those topics is dreams. What do we dream and how do we dream it. I often explain to people that it is our emotion during a dream that is important rather than the topic. I haven’t studied dreams in detail so I am not able to interpret dreams. But what I can do is find a remedy to help you through your dreaming.

I have put some of these finding on the Homeopathy at Home APP. If you haven’t got this yet you can find it on google play and the APP store. It is still free if you download it now.

So with various pages with rubrics and remedies to help improve your sleep, I thought it might be interesting to read through some of the rubrics for the different topics of dreaming. You might find that it help distinguish between choosing one remedy or another, so also check out what is happening before sleeping and also when you (or your child) awakes so that if you have two or three symptoms pointing to the same remedy you know you are onto a winner!
