Organic ... & Chemical Free
We are all concerned about the chemicals in our food and our environment, and so I have been surprised at how easy it is to inadvertently use toxic chemicals at home on ourselves and our loved ones through body care and cleaning products alone. Find out about, and support the Organic Food Movement. Organic food is getting cheaper all the time. The extra cost is worth it. The health of our earth depends on it. Literally. Sign up for the newsletter of the Organic Consumers Organization - you will learn lots about food - where it comes from and how, and maybe you'll join one or mroe of the OCO's campaigns!

Homeopathic Education
People often ask me about how and where they can study homeopathy. If you can get to a school this is always your best option. The Council for Homeopathic Certification requires 500 hours of study so ideally you want a school that offers at least that and make sure the school you are considering will prepare you for the CHC exams. Being certified with the CHC is essential for homeopathic practitioners in the US.
Look for a program that has tons of supervised clinical training, that does not throw you in at the deep end (with clinical practice), that audits their clinical results, and teaches ethics and patient/practice management as well as homeopathic skills. Ask to speak to students at the school, and even to visit and sit in on a few classes to make sure it's a good match for you and your needs.
The National Center for Homeopathy has a list of homeopathy schools to get you started.

Health Freedom
Did you know your freedom to use gentle, natural health therapies in Florida is in jeopardy. Florida’s Department of Health regulates licensed health care professions. The DOH thinks that you must receive these therapies from people licensed in another profession. If the DOH is correct, the government is effectively forcing you to use practitioners who may have little experience in the therapies that you seek. Florida Health Freedom Action (FHFA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting your health freedom rights and is part of a larger movement that is gaining support all over the country. Health freedom laws (in place in half a dozen states currently) preserve consumers' constitutional rights to make personal health care decisions without unnecessary state control.
The FDA has released a new directive that is causing major concern in the natural health community. Although the document does not specifically propose any new federal laws beyond those already in place, it is not clear what this directive might mean in terms of future proposed regulations. Specifically, the FDA's guidance statement elaborates on current regulations that state that any product, food, or supplement making health claims must be carefully policed by the FDA. This has been a longtime FDA rule. Notably, the document suggests that foods such as vegetable juices making health claims must undergo federal monitoring. Because this is a "guidance directive," rather than proposed legislation, there is not a pressing need for urgent action. Alternative health consumers can learn more about this directive, and offer individual comments or queries to the FDA.
Read all about it at the Organic Consumers Association - and sign up for their e-newsletter to keep in touch with this and other important environmental and health news.
