  • S2: EP12 - Homeopathy’s healing potential with Claire Zarb
    May 16 2024
    In this episode Claire shares the healing magic of Homeopathy. This is definitely an episode I’ll listen to more than once as the information Claire shares is pretty mind blowing! We talk about detoxing from the contraceptive pill; how sometimes there can be many ‘layers’ of things (both emotional and physical) that need to be healed before the real source of the problem is revealed; as well as talking about little bit about the history of homeopathy. It is a truly fantastic episode! You can follow Claire on Instagram @claire_homeopath or get in touch via her website www.clairezarb.com and as always, please share this episode, write a 10 second review and/or subscribe to this podcast if you’ve enjoyed listening - I am so SO grateful for each and every one of you for listening!
