108: Homeopathy and Autoimmunity: What Hahnemann Understood Before Modern Medicine

In this episode of the Strange Rare Peculiar homeopathy podcast, we talk about one of the fastest growing health challenges of our time: autoimmune disease. Unfortunately, most of the focus is on symptom suppression or palliation—without asking the deeper question: why is the body reacting this way in the first place?We explore how homeopathy approaches autoimmunity differently—and why Samuel Hahnemann was already grappling with these questions long before the term autoimmune disease existed.Whether you’re new to homeopathy, living with an autoimmune condition, or considering formal study, this episode invites you to slow down, think critically, and reconsider what true healing asks of both practitioner and client.Strange, Rare & Peculiar is a weekly podcast with Denise Straiges and Alastair Gray of the Institute for the Advancement of Homeopathy and the Academy of Homeopathy Education.This season, we’re focusing on truth — what it means to Aude Sapere (“dare to know”) in homeopathy today. From Hahnemann’s original insights to the realities of modern practice, research, and education, Denise and Alastair bring over 50 years of experience to conversations that challenge assumptions and invite curiosity.🎧 If you’re ready to look deeper — beyond trends, beyond opinion — join the conversation and rediscover what homeopathy truly is.Explore more:• Study homeopathy professionally → academyofhomeopathyeducation.com• Access affordable, virtual homeopathy care → homeopathyhelpnow.com• Support the future of homeopathy → advancehomeopathy.org• Join the practitioner-generated research network (PGRN) → advancehomeopathy.org/hohm-pgrnHosted by Denise Straiges and Alastair Gray.
