COURSE OVERVIEW

ACHENA Approved for 13 Hours

In this 6-week course, we bring together the collective knowledge and experience of three top level instructors in homeopathy to share the information that has helped them achieve successful results with their cases of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). ASD is a complex chronic condition that impairs social communication and interaction across multiple settings. These challenges make creating and maintaining relationships difficult. Additionally, ASD is characterized by restricted patterns of behavior, interests and activities. It is sometimes described as a “neuro-behavioral-psychiatric-genetic-gastrointestinal” disorder because there are multiple organ systems and contributing factors that give rise to the “totality of symptoms”.

For this reason, homeopathy is an ideal fit because ASD requires a holistic and individualized approach. Starting with Aphorism #71, we need to first understand what “dis-ease” we are treating, and what healing looks like in these patients (vis-a-vis Aphorism #9). We will look at the core deficits of ASD through the lens of our repertory and explore commonly-used remedies helpful in treating ASD. This course will focus on how to work with the parents’ expectations, how to elicit prescribing symptoms (even with non-verbal children), and how to monitor progress in a case.

Sessions 1, 2 & 3 will be taught by Ian Luepker, ND, DHANP

Session 1:

  • Strangers in a Strange Land: Diagnostic Features of ASD
  • Epidemiology of ASD: Exploring genes and vaccines
  • Naming the Problem: Challenges and benefits of diagnosis
  • Holistic Homeopathy: The perfect fit for ASD
  • Strange, Rare, Peculiar: Case-receiving tips from the field
  • Preoccupied and Persistent: Trains, planes and water (cases)
  • Remedy differential of Preoccupied and Persistent Presentations
  • Discussion of Preoccupied and Persistent Case: 7 yr-old girl with ASD and Sinusitis

Session 2:

  • ASD Gestures and Motor Movements: Case study, Rubrics and Remedies
  • Alphabet Soup: Diagnoses that accompany or disguise ASD
  • Odd, Anxious, and Obsessive: Hand washing, twirling and numerology
  • Alone, Awkward and Alienated: Human behavior doesn’t compute (case)
  • Sensitive and Selective: Picky in a prickly world, SPD and ASD

Session 3:

  • Happy, Hyper and Horrible: Overlapping AD(H)D and ASD
  • Cure is a dirty word in ASD community: Is palliation more palatable? 
  • Kent’s Remedy observations: Is the 7th a reasonable goal with ASD?
  • How does ASD benefit society: Is there a place for differences?
  • Diet and Lifestyle: Establishing the causes and conditions for success
  • Family Systems: How helping one can help all!

Session 4 will be taught by John Millar, BSc, ND, DHANP, CCH, HOM

During his 2-hour presentation, Dr. Millar will examine the role of Thuja in the treatment of autism, and present a case.

Your child will never speak! . . . so the parents are told. 
Something is wrong with my child . . . but nobody knows what.

  • Ailments from vaccination: Why is Thuja in this rubric?
  • Lying and hiding . . . No wonder Thuja is difficult to diagnose
  • Thuja - the great masquerader
  • Where is Thuja on the Autism Spectrum?
  • What else besides the remedy?
  • Related Remedies to Thuja

Sessions 5 & 6 will be taught by Kim Elia
The autism epidemic requires that homeopathic practitioners prepare to meet a unique set of challenges when treating this patient population. During these two sessions Kim will offer case examples and differentiating points among the most commonly used remedies, ensuring participants an enhanced understanding of the effective use of homeopathy in working with autism spectrum disorders.


Some of the remedies which will be reviewed include:

  • Bufo rana
  • Baryta carbonica
  • Cannabis indica
  • Anhalonium lewinii
  • Agaricus muscarius
  • Stramonium
  • Veratrum album
  • Helleborus niger


And many other smaller remedies that are common in practice.

Kim will also discuss homeopathic philosophy/methodology, case taking, case analysis, repertory and posology. Cases from the literature and Kim’s clinical practice will be used to illustrate the various points.

PRAISE FOR Kim Elia,John Millar

You haven't lived until you have had the enormous pleasure of experiencing Kim Elia's teaching. With his dynamic, entertaining, engaging and up-beat style, Kim taps into his vast knowledge to bring remedies to life, forging an indelible impression. Kim is the perfect storm of whirlwind energy, masterful understanding and lightning perception - all to regale you with the kind of learning experience that lasts forever. 

— Frans Vermeulen an...


Kim Elia is one of our most outstanding teachers and exponents of Homeopathy. His knowledge of the Synthesis Repertory, and Repertories in general, as well as his knowledge of the Organon, Chronic Diseases, Materia Medica, and the history of Homeopathy is superb. Through his insights into past Homeopathic masters and their teachings, and his deep understanding of homeopathic prescribing, Kim has demonstrated a general mastery over our vast homeopathic literature. I am thrilled to be learning from Kim, and I am gaining from his vast experience that he presents so succinctly, lucidly, and clearly. I look forward to future courses with him.

— Ahmed N Currim, Ph...


Every time I hear Kim teach, I say to myself: ‘What a dynamic teacher!’ He has prepared his material so very well and offers it with such clarity, with a waterfall of questions that demand that the student actually think about the issues being discussed. No doubt that anyone participating in such a high caliber teaching session will walk out refreshed and, most of all, significantly more knowledgeable!

— Frederik Schroyens...


It is a great pleasure and honour to recommend Kim Elia. Kim brings to homoeopathy a unique knowledge of materia medica, repertories and advanced case analysis. His friendly nature and clear step by step explanation of deeper issues in homeopathic practice clearly show his genuine desire to help the person in front of him. Anybody who has heard Kim once would certainly want to hear him again and again. I have learned many things from Kim, and indeed, through his long career as a teacher in North America, Kim has cultivated a vast knowledge from which many others will be able to learn also."

— Farokh Master, MD,...


It is a rare constellation of qualities to find an educator in homeopathy who is collaborative, as well as both insightful and inspirational. Kim has all of these and more. He has a humility that belies a deep well of knowledge. At a time when there is much that is speculative and guesswork in homeopathic education Kim is able to ground his work in excellent theory and convincing cases. But as well as his case work, Kim's strength is his materia medica and students the world over have benefited from his seminars and webinars on our remedy indications often utilising the best of the latest technology. He is not just a true teacher of the art and science of homeopathy, he is also very, very funny. You just have to attend. Cheers.

— Alastair Gray, PhD


Kim Elia is perhaps the most widely traveled homeopath in the world. In the process he has acquired discrimination. He knows good homeopathy and not so good, good teachers and charlatans. He is rooted in the Organon and is a master of repertory. He knows how to access the world literature on homeopathy rapidly and with tremendous insight. If he does not have a case illustrating a certain remedy from his own extensive practice, he knows where to find an excellent one from the literature. He teaches with great enthusiasm and humor. There are only a handful of teachers in the homeopathic community of his caliber.

 

— Karl Robinson, MD


Kim Elia is one of our most exciting and dynamic homoeopathy teachers. He is a literal wealth of information, not only homoeopathic philosophy and practice but in the historical sequences that created homoeopathy. Highly recommended.

— Jeremy Sherr


In his teaching Kim is true to the three letters in his name: Embedded in an atmosphere of vigour and animation, Kim’s presenting style is

Keen
Intelligent
Meticulous

The three together spell excellence in the teaching of homeopathy.


— Frans Vermeulen


I am on lecture 2 of your History course. I have not felt such excitement from a course in recent memory! This is so captivating and rich I can't wait to get through all the classes! I sincerely believe that this course should be required for all students of Homœopathy (and one day, God willing, all students of allopathic medicine). Thank you so much for offering this to me. It is a work of art.

— Douglas Falkner, M...


I just want to say that Dr. Millar is a tremendous teacher in this webinar format. He brings ready access to multiple sources and approaches to homeopathy and is relaxed and helpful about people’s questions. And pleasant and lots of fun to listen to/watch. It feels immediate even though I am doing it by video from thousands of miles away.
I’m not writing this as something to go into a blurb for his courses, but to say that if he tolerates this format well enough to keep doing it, course after course, that would be tremendous news.

— Sarah D.


Dr. Millar was a superb teacher and had good organization and content . . . His experience and breadth of knowledge kept me engaged the entire time.

— Gloria St John


I just want to thank everyone involved and especially Dr. Millar for these excellent classes! I am not available Thursday evenings, and have been enjoying listening to the classes later and at a slower pace. I look forward to more.

— Wendy


Learning is a lifelong journey. I have been blessed with wonderful teachers in my life.....but every now and then you encounter one who does more than teach......one who inspires you to think beyond the curriculum and draw from perhaps dusty corners of your mind. John Millar is such a teacher. In his classroom, the subject matter becomes alive, meaningful and relevant.... and fascinating! The power of Classical Homeopathy is revealed in all its healing beauty and the student is changed forever - no longer able to think in limited ways - but instead enriched with sound knowledge, wisdom, creativity and compassion.

— Catherine Elliott


John’s teaching has always made Homeopathy tangible and exciting. John has so much incredible information to share and is always encouraging his students to continue learning. I frequently look back on my notes from John’s classes and am always thankful to have had him as a teacher.

— Vanessa Pizzicarola


John Millar is indeed a clinical pearl and gold mine and treasure. Thanks for exposing his knowledge and talents to us. Please could we have more of him?

— Cynthia


The webinar was so very helpful and I now have a very thorough and comprehensive set of notes on the GI tract. I really appreciate the amount of work that Dr. Millar put into his presentations. He has a very lovely teaching manner.

— Yvonne


Thank you for another wonderful course. Dr. Millar is certainly now one of your treasures. He has instantly become one of my favorite teachers. I certainly hope you can entice him back to teach another course for you. I really enjoyed how free he was with his vast knowledge, not to mention how friendly and relaxed his demeanor was. I would certainly sign up for another course taught by Dr. Millar!

— Piers R. Wander


John has been an outstanding faculty member and well-loved by his students. He brings a high level of professionalism and excellence to his teaching. His clinical experience provides a richness and quality that his students highly value. He has a wonderful sense of humor that he brings to his work.

— Todd Rowe, MD, MD(...


I really like to learn how the remedy is chosen and followed through and your clinical experience with remedies that seem effective most often.

— Lakshmi S.


I also am interested in everything and anything Dr. John wants to teach -:)

— Annalisa P.


Wonderful, more courses please. Endocrinology would be excellent. . . . Thanks again, John, for your excellent courses!

— Darcelle R.
