This is a lively hands-on workshop, requiring the active participation of all workshop members. Conversation between all participants will be highly encouraged.
During this workshop, we will explore the process of making the healing waters sourced from Harrison Hot Springs (BC) into a homeopathic remedy, starting with a small amount of the hot springs water. Using a mortar and pestle and lactose powder, participants will learn the ancient science and art of homeopathic trituration, first invented by Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy. Once the workshop is complete, participants will have the knowledge and confidence to make their own homeopathic remedies in the future, if they so desire.
Harrison Hot Springs is a scenic tourist spot, and is a 90 minute drive east of Vancouver. These spring waters were traditionally revered as the “healing place” by the local Sts’ailes First Nations for thousands of years before they were found by Europeans in the 1800’s. Note that there is currently no existing homeopathic proving or materia medica information for this remedy.
This proving is inspired by the work of Japanese homeopath Dr. Torako Yui, who has created and used 72 water remedies gathered from shrines, temples and mountains for the healing of the soul and spirit.
During this trituration, we will also be exploring the healing properties of homeopathic Harrison Hot Springs water, mainly through art, as well as through conversation and journaling.
This event is open to professionals as well as to laypeople. To understand more about trituration provings, please visit the Homeopathic Trituration Proving FAQ
Participants should bring their own mortar and pestle if they have one, journals and/or art materials. Extra supplies will be provided as needed.

Shungite Gemstone Homeopathic Trituration Proving

With Sonya McLeod, Classical Homeopath and author of “The Art of Homeopathic Provings” (forthcoming title, Saltire Books, late spring/summer 2020).
In this very important time in history, during this global COVID-19 crisis, I would like to invite you to take part in a homeopathic proving of Shungite Gemstone. During our time together, we will explore the potential that this gemstone has for healing human consciousness on a global collective level.
Shungite Gemstone is billions of years old, and is the only natural mineral that contains fullerenes (aka carbon60, carbo fullerine or “buckyballs”). For healing, shungite gemstone is commonly used as a general detoxifier, and is especially known to be the most effective gemstone for detoxing EMFs. In world-renowned homeopath Jeremy Sherr’s recent lectures about using homeopathy for COVID-19, he places the overall picture of the COVID-19 state in the radioactive miasm, and proposes that radioactive remedies such as Radon may be useful for treatment.

Albino “Ghost” Redwood Proving Presentation at the BCAH Conference in Vancouver
Saturday October 5, 2019
11:30am-12:30pm
BCAH Annual Homeopathic Conference
SFU Harbour Centre, Vancouver
Sonya McLeod, Classical Homeopath and BCAH Board Member, is excited to present material from her upcoming book “Provings Volume 1” to be published in 2020 by Saltire Books.
Albino “Ghost” Redwood was a trituration proving organized by Sonya McLeod in Vancouver in 2011, guest led by “Trituration Handbook” authors Judy Shriebmann and Anneke Hogeland from San Francisco.
The key themes of this unique and useful homeopathic remedy will be discussed.
During her one hour presentation, Sonya will also invite participants to experience and resonate with the core essence of the remedy first hand by playing clips from the original 2011 voice recording of the Albino “Ghost” Redwood trituration proving. Sonya has found that one of the most effective and powerful ways to interact and connect with the proving substance is during the scraping and grinding (trituration) process itself; therefore, all participants will be invited to interact with the substance directly by each taking a turn at grinding the original “C5” Albino “Ghost” Redwood lactose powder with a mortar and pestle.

Trituration of Raccoon
Triturations are a vital part of homeopathy. Every homeopath benefits from knowing the process well, and from being able to create remedies from raw substances. Like good provings, triturations provide a direct, experiential, body-based knowledge of a substance. They promote and enhance the development of the homeopath, furthering personal and professional growth. This results in greater satisfaction and better results in all facets of practice, from reading and understanding Materia Medica to case taking, remedy and potency selection, case analysis and case management.
To Hahnemann’s “Aude sapere” (Dare to Think)
I respectfully add, “Aude facere” (Dare to Do)
Our workshop begins Friday night at 7pm, where I introduce students to the process and answer general questions. On Saturday we triturate 3 or 4 rounds, with breaks for discussion and food, expecting to end around 5 p.m. Sunday we begin again at 9 a.m., triturating as many rounds as needed, ending around 2pm. As time permits, there will be discussions on the philosophy of C4 Homeopathy. Students should bring their own mortar and pestle if they have one, journals and/or art materials. I will provide extras as needed.
Organon §265
It should be a matter of conscience with him [the physician] to be thoroughly convinced in every case that the patient takes the right medicine, and therefore he must give the patient the correctly chosen medicine prepared, moreover, by himself (emphasis mine). –Samuel Hahnemann
Why Raccoon?
In 2009, I led a pellet proving of raccoon along with my colleague, Kathleen Taylor. Although it was a great experience for all involved, we are wondering if something was missed because as far as we know it is not a remedy that is currently being used in practice. Because C4 homeopathy is so good at getting to the core essence of a remedy, I feel that a trituration proving of raccoon is needed in order to fine tune the information that we have about this remedy including what it cures and who it can cure.
