Kate:

This is the Practical Homeopathy® Podcast, episode number 146, with Joette Calabrese.

Joette:

Hi, I’m Joette Calabrese, and I welcome you to our health care movement — yours, mine and the countless men and women across the globe who have retaken control of their families’ health with Practical Homeopathy®.

So, for the next few minutes, let’s link our arms as I demystify homeopathy — what was once considered an esoteric paradigm — into an understandable, reproducible, safe and effective health care solution available to all.

This is the medicine you’ve been searching for — my unique brand of homeopathy, PRACTICAL Homeopathy®.

Introduction: Absolutely anyone can lead a study group

Kate: (01:00 )

Hi, I am Kate. Welcome to the podcast. Hi, Joette and Michelle.

Joette:

Hi Kate, Michele.

Michele:

Hi Kate. Hi Joette.

Kate:

It’s good to be here together with you guys.

Today we’re doing something a little bit different. Today, we are going to share a sneak peek into the contents of Joette’s Gateway to Practical Homeopathy® I. And Joette’s going to share some of her insights along the way.

So, you may have listened to podcast number 142, where Michelle and I talked about leading a Gateway study group. And we asked the question, “Can anyone lead a Gateway to Practical Homeopathy® study group?”

And Michelle, what was your answer? What did we determine by the end of that?

Michele:

Absolutely anyone can lead a study group.

Kate:

Yes, yes.

So today, we’re going to go deeper into what exactly is in the Gateway study group. So, if you’ve participated in or led a Gateway study group, you’ll want to share this with other people, who you might know, who might be interested.

And you’ll still want to listen in because we’re going to share some insights — well, actually, Joette is. So, this might be some new information to you.

And if you’re new, this is a great place for you to start.

So, with that, I wanted to explain just a little bit about what the Gateway to Practical Homeopathy® entails … and it’s a physical book. You can purchase that book on Joette’s Learning Center. It’s JoettesLearningCenter.com.

And there’s also special access online to some additional information, and we’ll get into that a bit later.

But Michelle, do you want to explain a little bit more about what they can find on the website that goes along with the book?

Michele: (02:35 )

Sure. In the Learning Center, you’re going to find that there are great resources in there to go along with your study guide.

You’re going to have videos to study, and also, as you go through each lesson, you’ll find the homework in there that you need for each lesson there as well.

You’ll also find valuable additional, supplemental blogs and information for each of the lessons for those of you who’d like to study further.

Joette’s creative vision for the Gateway study group program

Kate: (02:59 )

Okay, great. As we get started, Joette, I would love to hear your vision. Well, I’ve heard it, but so many people haven’t. What was your vision for the Gateway study guide?

Joette:

Okay, well, first of all, hi friends! It’s great to know that there are people interested in this because there was a time when I would be talking about this subject, and no one was listening.

So, now it’s happening. It’s happening in a very exciting way. Many, many, many people — tens of thousands of people — are now following this information, this Practical Homeopathy® that we’re teaching.

So, my vision was based on what I had done when I was first learning homeopathy. And at the time, I had one small child. He’s now 37. And then, I had two subsequent children after that. But that first child … I knew that I didn’t want to depend on a pediatrician. I didn’t want to depend on antibiotics, should he get otitis media or strep throat or conjunctivitis or something.

And so, I looked around and asked a few friends to see if there was anyone else who was interested in learning an alternative way to treat these kinds of conditions.

And at the time, I had just been introduced to homeopathy. That’s a whole ‘nother story. I won’t go into that story now because it was as a result of taking my son to a well-baby checkup. And I learned my lesson thoroughly. I already knew what the lesson was, but I learned it more thoroughly by him having gotten something that I didn’t want him to get, having taken him into the pediatrician’s office. So, my focus was on — at that moment in time — my baby.

And so, I gathered my friends, I said, “Let’s study together.”

And so, we got a book, and we started to study. We met in my living room and other people’s living rooms here and there as well. But we studied together every Thursday night for four years. It was an absolute, we would never miss it.

If someone had a sick child, they just left the child home with their husband. Or if I had a conflict, it simply wasn’t going to happen. My focus was on meeting with these friends because we
