Course overview

Our Basic course is designed for complete beginners in homeopathy, but if you have been using remedies at home for some time already you will still find plenty of new insights, different remedies and valuable guidance in homeopathic philosophy. There will be an experienced teacher for you to ask questions of. Our courses are delivered ‘live’ but online – so they are not pre-recorded. You will have the same teacher for all six sessions (barring illness!) and there will be time to answer your questions and for students to exchange ideas and experiences. You can find more information about our teachers here.

We advise you to buy a remedy kit from the outset. Our Basic course is pegged to the Basic 18-remedy Homeopathy kit available from Helios Pharmacy. However, we always cover a few extra remedies in addition. Ainsworth’s homeopathic pharmacy also produces excellent starter kits for home use. If you already have a selection of remedies at home, you may not need to buy a kit and can top up your supply with individual remedies from any of the main homeopathic pharmacies listed below.

You do not need to buy any books to do the course – a complete set of notes will be sent by either email or post, as you choose. However, if you would like to buy a book they are widely available and the homeopathic pharmacies listed below stock a wide range of introductory titles. You’ll find that you get more out of the course if you read through the notes carefully before the classes start. We also advise being prepared to take some extra notes during the sessions.

The course is divided into 6 sessions, each 2 hours long, and delivered live on zoom. Your teacher will use our Power Points to back up the information in the Handbook. Each session is a mixture of teaching about remedies (materia medica) (approximately an hour and a half) and an introduction to some relevant homeopathic philosophy or principles (approximately half an hour). There will always be time allowed for questions.

Study Aims

After completing the course you should feel confident in using a range of widely prescribed first-aid remedies to yourself, your family and friends for simple, everyday, self-limiting health problems such as those listed above. You should have a basic understanding of the homeopathic understanding of disease, of how remedies are made and why a particular remedy is chosen.

If in doubt, always call your surgery or NHS 111 for advice or a consultation. Becoming a confident home prescriber of homeopathy does not equip you to diagnose disease or to charge for your services or for remedies.
