Authorities Unplugged Radio with Amanda Cowlrick

GUEST: AMANDA COWLRICK Title: Healing Beyond Borders: Homeopathy, Reiki & Atua Energy with Amanda Cowlrick Episode Summary: In this inspiring episode of Live with Dr. Allen Lycka, New Zealand-based holistic healer Amanda Cowlrick shares her remarkable path from personal healing to professional homeopathy and Reiki practice. A dual diploma holder in acute and chronic prescribing, Amanda is also trained in atua healing, a Māori modality. Through personal stories, Amanda reveals how ancient energy systems and modern holistic methods are empowering people worldwide to reclaim their wellness. How It All Began Amanda’s journey into homeopathy began in her teens when a lingering wrist injury was dismissed by doctors. After finding relief through homeopathy, she committed to lifelong study, earning formal diplomas by 2018. Acute vs. Chronic Prescribing She explains how acute prescriptions treat short-term issues—such as colds, bruises, or minor injuries—while chronic prescriptions address long-standing issues like anxiety or depression, often over several months or more. Navigating Skepticism Amanda addresses the skepticism surrounding homeopathy with grace. She points to growing clinical research, like that from the Homeopathy Research Institute, and shares how even skeptics often turn to her when conventional methods fail. Reiki & Atua Healing Reiki, an energy healing practice from Japan, is surprisingly mainstream in New Zealand. Amanda pairs it with atua healing—a spiritual energy modality rooted in Māori culture that clears emotional blockages and restores balance across seven levels of energy. The Power of Listening A key distinction in Amanda’s work is time. Her 90-minute homeopathy sessions allow for deep listening, uncovering layers of physical, emotional, and even suppressed trauma that short medical visits often miss. Post-Pandemic Wellness Shifts COVID-19 sparked a return to natural living—gardening, whole foods, herbalism. Amanda sees a growing interest in self-healing tools like homeopathy kits and online Reiki courses, empowering families to care for themselves at home. Advice for Newcomers Her top tip: choose your healer wisely. Comfort and trust are crucial. Amanda even invites prospective clients to meet over coffee before booking—a testament to her client-centered approach. A Broader Mission Amanda’s vision is a world where natural healing is accessible and normalized. Though challenges remain, she hopes homeopathy and Reiki become standard tools in household first aid kits.
