“Now, a new study in The American Journal of Psychiatry has found that brains of autistic people have fewer of a specific kind of receptor for glutamate, the most common excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain. The reduced availability of these receptors may be associated with various characteristics linked to autism.”

Fewer glutamate receptors may actually increase extracellular glutamate and glutamate accumulation. Excess glutamate is neurotoxic and damages the mitochondria.

The imbalance between glutamate (excitatory neurotransmitter) and GABA (the calming neurotransmitters been in the news a lot as of recently. I will do my best to share a few here. My website (linked and bio) covers how we were able to help restore balance in this area.
Abstract only:
“Features of imbalanced gut microbial GABA metabolism in preschool children with mild ASD
• Microbial GABA/glutamate ratio is potentially an independent marker for ASD
diagnosis
• Overrepresentation of Escherichia is associated with abnormal GABA metabolism in ASD
• Simulated overgrowth of E. coli potentiates social deficits in mice”

“Furthermore, we observe social behavioral impairments in weaning mice transplanted with E. coli, suggesting a potential link to ASD symptomatology. ”

Well, as a homeopathic student practitioner, I’m finally taking the next step in my journey by beginning to take ACUTE homeopathic cases under supervision through Homeopathy Help Now (HHN).

What is homeopathy? Homeopathy is a 200+ year old system of alternative & natural medicine that uses highly diluted substances, known as remedies, to support the body through illnesses, imbalances, and injuries.

At this point, I will only be supporting ACUTE cases. Acute cases involve temporary illnesses or injuries that appear suddenly (often from an exciting cause) and resolve relatively quickly. 
Some examples of acute cases: common colds, stomach bugs, stings, styes (not reoccurring), etc.

I am NOT taking chronic cases at this point. Chronic cases address deep-seated illnesses that develop slowly and persist over a long period, potentially for months or years. 
Some examples of a chronic case are: seasonal allergies, anxiety, eczema, arthritis, endometriosis, menopause, etc.

Things to note:
-Since homeopathy is based on the principle of “like cures like.” To find the right remedy for your specific symptoms, we may need to take some time. As a student practitioner, please be patient with me (and all homeopaths) during this process. 😉
-Appointments are virtual and cost $50 for acute support with a student practitioner and a supervisor.
-If you would like to coordinate a time to meet with me through HHN for acute support, send me a DM and we can try to coordinate a mutually convenient time.
-If you need immediate support, feel free to sign up with any other student practitioner at https://homeopathyhelpnow.com/ ❤️

Exciting news, Amy Lansky’s new book is out today! After experiencing the amazing healing of her son's autism through homeopathy, Amy Lansky made the bold decision to leave her job as a NASA scientist to explore homeopathy and dive into her writing. While many know her for her well-loved book, *The Impossible Cure: The Promise of Homeopathy*, I have to say that her second and third books, which delve into consciousness, spirituality, and the evolution of human awareness, are my absolute favorites!

Today, I had the privilege of visiting the London Royal Homeopathic Hospital. Through , I discovered that this incredible hospital was founded in 1849 and has been graced by influential homeopaths like John Henry Clark, Bach (Bach Flower Remedies), Foubister (carcinocin), Margery Blackie, and Margaret Tyler. Our lives have changed due to homeopathy, and now, as a student, my day has been made.❤️

Over the past decade, I’ve embarked on a journey of self-discovery, intentionally pushing myself to think beyond conventional boundaries, delve into deeper insights, and trust my intuition—unapologetically following where my heart leads me, even when it goes against societal norms. Recently, I’ve been obsessed with the remarkable gifts of some nonspeakers with autism, including some I personally know and love. This experience has profoundly reshaped my perception of life and helped me grow in my faith.

If you're interested, here are a few resources I have been digging into recently.

The Telepathy Tapes: This amazing podcast focuses on a few individuals with nonspeaking autism and their gifts of telepathy and beyond. While it’s best to listen to the episodes in order, I must say that Episode 6, about animals and their ESP, and Episode 9, about passing, are my favorites! It truly is the best podcast I’ve ever listened to!

The ESP Enigma: It’s an interesting book by Dr. Diane Hennacy Powell, MD, who also taught neuropsychiatry at Harvard Medical School. This informative read dives into the intriguing research and history of extrasensory perception (ESP) and its connection to autism. If you’re curious about these topics, this book is worth exploring. Might be best as an audio book.

Love, Light, and Peace: Visits from Heaven By Kathy Lamm & Wendy Brick. A wonderful neighbor and Oncologist friend of ours wrote this book with her sister. It beautifully captures their experiences with patients being reunited with those that have preceded them as they face their final moments. This quick and inspiring read provides immense hope and peace for those nearing the end of life. I’ve purchased too many copies to count.

I have quite a few resources around this and will create a story highlight to share more in the future.
