Finally, after the idea hovering around in my head, and my heart, for several years, the decision has been made and I have signed up for the Foundation year to study Homeopathy at the College of Visionary Homeopathy (CVH) in Bexhill.
From idea to reality
Two weeks ago it was just an idea and now it is a reality; I couldn't be more excited! I am passionate about energy work and always turn to homeopathy, acupuncture or EFT as the first port of call whenever something in my life is out of balance. Over the last 18 months I have been feeling unsettled and disappointed with my working life, frustrated and ready to study something new but concerned about how I would support myself. Then I had a conversation with Val Lawrence, my homeopath over many years, which shifted everything and made my decision easy.
Fits into my lifestyle
The course is one weekend a month, starting in October, which means that I can continue my usual work pattern. With approximately 15 hours homework a month thats really achievable for me. I am already longing to get started and have been looking online at some of the terms that are used in homeopathy, such as the Organon and nosodes, and also reading posts about remedies. I have always found it fascinating and I know that it works.
Homeopathy is not static
One of the most exciting thing about homeopathy is that it grows and develops, its not static; there are new remedies being developed all the time and CVH training includes these new remedies. As we evolve as a species and need different remedies we will develop them – and even more exciting, eventually I could be part of that development!
Capacity to study
I have some anxiety about my capacity to study, its been a long time since I studied anything, and this course will be a stretch for me I think, but I know the tutors will have the same passion for their subject that Val, the College principal, has and will want to support and develop their students. So, passion for the subject, alongside good teaching, I hope will see me through the Foundation year into the 2 year professional practitioner course.
Everything has changed in the last two weeks, I feel as though everything is falling into place to enable me to study and I am grateful that it is possible.
