Snowy days and Sundays...

I was so excited this morning to wake up with snow on the trees (well that was all I could see to start with from the bedroom window) and when I peeked outside the back door lots of lovely thick snow on the ground.  Snow, salapettes, sledges - we were all set...  After a bit of baking and waiting for our lovely friend to arrive we were ready - off to the sledging field to rediscover childhood! 

It was a day of treats - we had the pub to look forward to for Sunday lunch next, a wander round a craft centre then aforementioned baking, warmth and sofa (although with my late night last night (2.30am? I'm not 18 any longer!) a quick nap would have made it entirely perfect...)

Anyway enough of my lovely day and onto the homeopathic aspect of the blog!

After a little wobble off course and collision with a fence (fortunately no harm to either Isla or the fence) I have a poignant reminder that Arnica would be a great remedy to have at hand on return - or even in the field with you for the fun related knocks and bruises that can result.  I'd usually take the 30C potency and wait - whilst symptoms have improved don't do anything then repeat as necessary.

Aconite can also be a handy one to have for coughs and colds that start suddenly as a result of being out in a cold dry wind.  Again as with the arnica advice above, I'd take the 30C potency and wait - repeat if needed.

Both great remedies to have around for these cold, snowy days. 

If you've repeated several times with no improvment it would be worth stopping and if necessary consulting a Homeopathic practitioner for further advice - it may be a different remedy would be more helpful for you.
