104. Exploring Homeopathy: Shenel Engel on Self Care with Herbs
Manage episode 447537410 series 3611679
During this episode, I chat with Shenel Engel, a dedicated homoeopathic practitioner specialising in women's health, with a profound personal journey through Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome and Endometriosis. Diagnosed at 21 with these conditions and told she might never conceive, Shenel embarked on a transformative journey of healing through diet, lifestyle changes, and homoeopathy. Her personal success story includes the joy of raising two children, inspiring her to help others facing similar challenges.
Through her practice, ‘Your Homeopath’, Shenel offers invaluable insights and practical solutions to manage and overcome these conditions, while also offering homeopathic kits to support common first aid situations as well as child birth and the postpartum.
During our chat, Shenel shares her emotional journey- from being told her reproductive conditions would likely prevent her from having children through to her introduction to homeopathy and the happy conception of two beautiful children (and a third on the way) and being inspired to study homeopathy formally.
We hear of the in depth consultation process that precedes the selection of a homeopathic remedy and some of the common homeopathics that Shenel leans on both in clinic and to support her own health and that of her young family.
It’s interesting to hear of the parallels between one of my favourite herbs- Chamomile- the humble hero of gut and emotional health- and the corresponding homeopathic Chamomilla.
Shenel has so much wisdom and lots of interesting insights to share from a homeopathic perspective and that of a pregnant mumma of a young family!
