Can anyone tell me what exactly is Homeopathy? Has anyone used it themselves or for their children, especially regarding anxiety?

We use it for both our kids and ourselves. We've found it works very well.
If I were you I'd give it a go. It can't hurt and is much more affordable than a naturopath.

Have a google. Homeopathy is very different to naturopathy. And tbh I'm surprised a psychologist recommended it.. As someone who works in health, while I personally use and see validity in naturopathy and herbs (they certainly have medicinal benefits), i just personally don't believe in homeopathy. Homeopathy dilutes to non-existance something that's the thing that may have made you "sick" if that makes sense. Some people swear by it, but i am skeptical.this is just my personal opinion,

I use homeopathy for myself and also for my ds. I think it's great, the sleeping remedy I have definitely helps him. I'm not a hippie either but I do prefer natural options when possible smile Homeopathy is more of a thing that you give often, in small doses, not just a one tablet fix all sort of thing.

Seeing a homeopath is more specifically in relation to getting her to sleep as a big part of the anxiety is separation at bedtime. The psychologist thinks homeopathy can help us with that in the interium. I have DD1 on fish oil and today went to a health food store to buy some rescue remedy spray for night time also recommended by the psychologist. We used that last night which didn't help her settle to sleep, but then she wasn't anxious last night as she had a friend sleep over for her birthday and they giggled and mucked around nearly all night as to be expected at their age.
