Joette: Hi, I’m Joette Calabrese, and I welcome you to our health care movement — yours, mine and the countless men and women across the globe who have retaken control of their families’ health with Practical Homeopathy®. So, for the next few minutes, let’s link our arms as I demystify homeopathy — what was once considered an esoteric paradigm — into an understandable, reproducible, safe and effective health care solution available to all. This is the medicine you’ve been searching for — my unique brand of homeopathy, PRACTICAL Homeopathy®. Introduction: Get Rid of Headaches With Practical Homeopathy® Kate: (01:00) Welcome back to the podcast. If this is your first time here, you’re in for a treat today. Or maybe a better way to say it is, you’re about to get out of a real pickle. We’re diving into headaches with Joette — from the extremely painful ones that knock you flat to that dull ache after a long day in the sun. But even more importantly, we’ll hear exactly what Joette did to finally relieve her headaches for good. Now, I know most of us listening have dealt with a headache at some point, even if it was just a mild one. But Joette, earlier, you were sharing how we can approach different types of headaches in a smarter way. So, can you start by explaining what you mean by different kinds of headaches? Different types of headaches Joette: (01:41) Oh, absolutely, Kate. Headaches come in all shapes and sizes: dull, throbbing, sharp, stabbing, tight-band-like pressure around the head, pain behind the eyes, or sometimes a heavy squeezing sensation. And then there are migraines, which are in a league of their own. So, let me clarify the difference between a regular headache — even a really painful sinus one — and a true migraine. Now, migraine is far more than just a bad headache. It often brings debilitating, throbbing pain, sometimes on one side, sometimes both sides, that can leave you in bed for days. Lights, sounds, movement, or certain triggers can worsen it, along with nausea, vision changes, even fatigue or irritability. So, whether it’s a headache or a migraine, the key is to investigate before reaching for the homeopathic medicine. We want to try to find the cause, if possible. If we can’t pinpoint it exactly, at least narrow it down to the specific symptoms, because sometimes the cause can give us very good information. Kate: So, you are saying that headaches don’t usually just appear out of nowhere. Joette: Well, sometimes it feels like that. But if you look a little closer, there’s often a trigger — not always — but often there can be. It can be a long day in the sun, sudden weather, pressure changes, too much screen time, dehydration, or even stress, or, let me also add, food intolerances that you hadn’t considered in the past. So, if the cause isn’t obvious, then, okay … then, focus on the symptoms instead. Where exactly is the pain? What does it feel like? Is it only at night or in the temples or dull pressure behind the eyes? We often slap the broad label headache on everything and stop there because most people are accustomed to just simply taking a drug for just pain regardless of where it is and how it presents. But these details that I’m listing really matter in homeopathy. Kate: So, I’m wondering if the cause and symptoms are the real clues to how we look at this. I think that’s really smart. Joette, why does the type of headache even matter? Isn’t it all just the same thing in the end? Joette: Not really. Once you understand the difference between migraines, certain common headaches, their causes, their unique symptoms, everything changes. Two personal examples: barometric pressure and dehydration headaches Joette: (04:12) So, let me share two personal stories that show the cause made all the difference in the pain I experienced. The first one was years of barometric pressure headaches back in ...

Joette: Hi, I’m Joette Calabrese, and I welcome you to our health care movement — yours, mine and the countless men and women across the globe who have retaken control of their families’ health with Practical Homeopathy®. So, for the next few minutes, let’s link our arms as I demystify homeopathy — what was once considered an esoteric paradigm — into an understandable, reproducible, safe and effective health care solution available to all. This is the medicine you’ve been searching for — my unique brand of homeopathy, PRACTICAL Homeopathy®. Introduction: Don’t Worry Kate: (01:00) Welcome to the Practical Homeopathy® Podcast, and our subject today is worry. Now, we all talk about anxiety. I think that’s very common in society today, but what about worry? Maybe you’re not plagued with the deep anxiety day and night, but you are a mom, like me, that worries. Or maybe you’re not a mom, but you worry about your pets, your family, your friends, your career, your finances. What about if you’re a teenager and you worry about being bullied, or a grandparent who worries about their new grandbabies and how much time they’ll get to spend with them? Well, regardless of who you are, worry shouldn’t be on the forefront of your mind, especially if you can’t let it go. Long-term stresses on the body can lead to many other issues, but in this podcast, Joette is going to cover some important homeopathic medicines that can help when worry becomes an everyday occurrence and when worry turns into something greater. So, let’s get started, Joette. Women are expert worriers Joette: (02:00) Yeah, let’s get started, Kate. First, I want to say that some of the best worriers on earth are women. We’re experts at it. Once we become a mother, then, I would say worry is our middle name. Kate: Right. Joette: So, yeah, it can be mild. It can go on and on, but it can also be within the range of normal. So, we don’t want to treat just every little thing that comes along because, as we know, everyone worries now and then. But when it starts to affect our daily life, then we consider trying a homeopathic medicine to calm that thinking pattern. And we don’t use it every day. We would use it maybe for a day or two and see how it affects us — and use it only as needed. That would be our goal. So, I know there can be moments of fleeting worry when your child learns how to ride a bike, or when you’re going to take a test, or about your family going on a trip overseas, or if you’ll make it someplace on time. That’s within the range of normal. But if you find yourself in a constant state of worry, or it becomes something that you find affects your day-to-day living because you’re spending your time checking up on your adult kids constantly (or even your younger children), or not going to places because of worry (like not getting on a plane or not being comfortable enough to take the thruway) … you get the picture. When worry becomes a pathology, think Arsenicum album or Calc carb Joette: (03:18) Homeopathy can often help. So, I want to talk about a few top remedies that we could consider when we repertorize them in our “Meta Repertory” by Robin Murphy. And we look up on page, for example, 277. (For those of you who have a repertory, it’s kind of fun to do this. But if you don’t, you can just follow along.) There’s “worries, tendency to,” (tendency to worry). And the top medicines are Arsenicum album and Calc carb (or Calcarea carbonica). There are other medicines, too, but I want to just touch on these two main medicines. Let’s go with Arsenicum first. It’s a person who is full of worries about trifles. They’re nervous; they’re anxious; they can be indecisive. They have anxiety, especially about health, about fear of germs, viruses, being poisoned. They’re restless, and basically, they turn into a hypochondriac. If it’s a child that worries, they don’t want to be alone, and they can cling to their parents. And I have to say that this is...

  • Podcast 167 — Practical Professionals: Aconite for Shock, Fear, Anxiety and Panic
    Apr 10 2026
    In this podcast, we cover: 01:00 Introduction: Aconite for shock, fear, anxiety and panic 02:21 Meet Elizabeth, who utilized Aconitum napellus for her husband’s shock after bad news and with other conditions 04:59 Meet Jennifer, who used Aconite for her child’s delayed panic after a close call in a swimming pool 06:39 Different kinds of shock 07:47 Meet Laurie, who employed Aconite for stage fright and her young son’s fear of storms 10:05 Meet Nealy, whose dog-clients use Aconite for anxiety and fear of car rides 12:59 Other uses of Aconitum napellus: the Arnica of the eye, fear of death, labor 18:45 Closing Advice Additional resources: Joette Calabrese on YouTube (Monday Night Lives) Joette’s Learning Center The Academy of Practical Homeopathy® PracticalHomeopathy.com Gateway to Practical Homeopathy®: A Guided Study Group Curriculum Joette’s Study Group, Find Your New Study Group Friends Joette’s Mighty Members FindAPracticalHomeopath.com Kate: This is the Practical Homeopathy® Podcast, episode number 167, with Joette Calabrese. Joette: Hi, I’m Joette Calabrese, and I welcome you to our health care movement — yours, mine and the countless men and women across the globe who have retaken control of their families’ health with Practical Homeopathy®. So, for the next few minutes, let’s link our arms as I demystify homeopathy — what was once considered an esoteric paradigm — into an understandable, reproducible, safe and effective health care solution available to all. This is the medicine you’ve been searching for — my unique brand of homeopathy, PRACTICAL Homeopathy®. Introduction: Aconite for shock, fear, anxiety and panic Joette: (01:00) Have you ever had a shocking experience, after which you felt sudden surges of adrenaline through the body? Now, you might’ve been shaky and felt fearful and panicked. How about an anxiety attack or panic attack? Well, you’re not alone. A national health statistic I saw states that during 2022, about one in five adults, age 18 and older, experienced symptoms of anxiety in the past two weeks. But we don’t have to fear because on this podcast, I’m going to share about one of my favorite homeopathic medicines, which has the ability to address these conditions and much more. I’ll bet you can guess which medicine it is. If you guessed Aconitum napellus — Aconite — you were right. Some of you may already know that Aconite has been known to address conditions such as colds or flu (especially if they come on quickly), coughs, croup, fever, cardiac events, otitis media, sleeplessness and much more. But in this podcast, we’re going to focus on its ability to address anxiety, shock and fear. So, I’ve invited some of my students to join us on this podcast because they have their own stories about Aconite. Meet Elizabeth, who utilized Aconitum napellus for her husband’s shock after bad news and with other conditions Joette: (2:21) So, I’d like to welcome Elizabeth. She is a Mastermind member, an Ambassador, has finished the two years — The Academy and Mastery — and has her own business. Go ahead, Elizabeth. We’d love to hear your story. Elizabeth: Hi, Joette. Thanks for having me. One moment that really stands out to me was during my husband’s serious chronic illness. He had just received some very discouraging news, and it triggered a full-blown panic attack. His heart was racing; he felt helpless. You could just tell his body didn’t know how to process the news he had just received. And I remember thinking, “This isn’t just everyday worry and anxiety. He’s in shock.” So, without making a big deal about it, I gave him a dose of Aconite, which is a remedy we use a lot in homeopathy for sudden fear and panic. And within minutes — and I mean minutes — I watched the panic melt away. And he looked at me, and he said, “What did you just give me? I feel so much better.” And that was one of those moments where I realized how powerful the right homeopathic remedy can be because his body was finally able to just calm down and reset. And that’s just one of countless stories where I have had horrific nightmares and had panic and anxiety and shock, and Aconite worked every time. My daughter has also had the same. I’ve had a friend who was in hospice, and I was able to see her benefit from Aconite as well. Client: pregnancy — horrific pregnancy — labor and delivery, ultimately PTSD. And that was one of the really big things that we worked on was preparing her mind and her body to prepare for the upcoming new baby with the labor and delivery, hypertension, lots of different things. But even just everyday things, like being exposed to cold winds. Like at one of my children’s soccer games or something: the onset of a cold or a cough. Aconite is just so beautiful. So, I take it everywhere with me because I have seen it be so powerfully effective with a number of health ...
