This document discusses the potential for sea remedies in homeopathy. It notes that while a few sea remedies like Natrum muriaticum are commonly used, more than 100 sea remedies exist and many remain unexplored. The author has studied sea remedies for 10 years and identified several themes common to many sea remedies, including affinity with water, vulnerability and need for protection, sensitivity, relationship and intimacy issues, need for private space, inhibition and guilt. Physical affinities include hormonal changes, glandular issues, lung and circulation problems, dryness, skin issues and cancer. Guidelines are provided for prescribing lesser known sea remedies. More research is still needed to uncover the healing potential of sea remedies, as knowledge of both the sea
Deskripsi Asli:

Sea remedies: a vast little-explored treasure source of healing potential
by Gordon Adam The sea is a symbol of the dynamism of life. Everything comes from the sea and everything returns to it. It is a place of birth, transformation and rebirth. With its tides, the sea symbolizes a transitory condition between shapeless potentiality and formal reality, an ambivalent situation of uncertainty, doubt, and indecision. Phillip Robbins[1] The sea is regarded as the source of all life; it covers about 70% of the Earths surface, and contains virtually all of the known elements[2]. Given its huge significance for life on the planet, only a small number of homeopathic remedies sourced from the sea are widely prescribed: Natrum muriaticum, Calcarea carbonica, Sepia, Ambra grisea and Spongia, although there are currently nearly 100 sea-sourced remedies available. The sea is the habitat of 230,000 known species; it is estimated that only 5% of the ocean has been explored, and biologists believe that over two million marine species may exist! More than in any other realm of nature, there is a huge healing potential lying dormant in unproved sea creatures and sea plants, and in seldom prescribed sea remedies that are already available. This has led me to engage in the study of sea remedies over the last 10 years, initially through setting up The Sea Remedies Project.[3] More recently, I have taught sea remedies in a series of workshops which have included short provings[4] of new sea remedies.
SEA REMEDY THEMES From work done by Massimo Mangialavori[5], and my own research[6], some themes that are characteristic of sea remedies have emerged: Sea & Water Watery language e.g. flow; drift; sink; swim. AFFINITY WITH WATER; people who need sea remedies often like to be near water or by the sea; sea hobbies; swimming, scuba diving, surfing, sailing, coastal path walking. Water seems frightening, with hidden unseen depths and threats e.g. fear of drowning, fear of sharks. Vulnerability & Protection VULNERABILITY: They feel VULNERABLE and have a need for PROTECTION.

GUIDELINES TO PRESCRIBING SMALLER SEA REMEDIES Salt is the main mineral constituent of sea water (3%). As Natrum mur is a polychrest well-represented in homeopathic repertories, it is often prescribed in cases that may do better with another sea remedy. Natrum mur, Sepia and Calc carb appearing in the top six remedies in a repertorisation, suggests looking at other sea remedies as possibilities for the case. Animal kingdom themes or language in a case that looks like Natrum mur is a clue to consider other sea creature remedies. If the case is Natrum mur, with sea themes, (but no animal kingdom themes or language), you could also consider Aqua marina (deep sea water), Sea Salt (from beach water), and Himalayan Crystal Salt. Remedies made from shells, or other calcareous material of the sea creatures, often use words and phrases that suggest the mineral kingdom. If a patient does well on one sea remedy, but the remedy action is less than hoped for, consider other remedies in the same biological group. For instance if Sepia helps to an extent but not quite enough, you could consider other cephalopod remedies: Octopus (solitary, hiding in a cave) or Nautilus (up and down), or Squid (squid shoal as a social group and has propulsion, whereas Sepia is solitary and has stasis). New sea remedy cases, provings, and materia medica information is gradually becoming more available on the internet, and in recent welcome publications by Jo Evans[7] and Rajan Sankaran[8] . However, our overall knowledge of sea remedies, like our knowledge of the sea itself, is still in its infancy, and much work remains to be done. The cases presented in this current issue of Interhomeopathy will hopefully shine a bit more light into a vast little-explored treasure source of healing potential.

Other important elements in the sea which are indispensable to organic life include Phosphorus, Oxygen, and Nitrogen. Sodium Chloride salt comprises 3% of the total mass of sea water. [3] The Sea Remedies Project was set up in 2004. It involved a group of about 20 local homeopaths and homeopathy students researching lesser known and newly-proved sea remedies and then presenting them to other members of the project in bi-monthly meetings in Bristol. The project ran for about 5 years. [4] Trituration proving of Sea Otter (Enhydra lutris).
