What if your symptoms are just your soul whispering, “Come back to me”? 🌿 In this episode of Holistic Wisdom, Margie speaks with homeopath + holistic coach Ruth Monty about deep, root-cause healing that goes far beyond surface symptoms.

They explore:

• How homeopathy restores wholeness (mind, body + spirit)
• Why emotional trauma often manifests as physical illness
• What a constitutional remedy is—and why it changes everything
• The role of intuition, frequency, and ancestral wisdom in healing

If you’re done with band-aid solutions and ready to heal from the inside out, this episode is your permission slip to trust your inner healer again.

And, uh, so what I'm going to do is, instead of trying to explain who she is, I'm gonna have Ruth explain. Um, so here is Ruth Monty, how are you today, Ruth?

Speaker 2: Hi Margie. Thanks for having me on. Um, I am a homeopath and a holistic, um, health coach, so my specialty is really resides in. Bringing the person, all the pieces of the person back together as a whole.

Speaker: Well, I love the way you described that. We, we throw around the term, um, holistic and we all know basically what that means, but I love the way you pull that. You're pulling all the parts of the person back together because we have, in our experiences, through our lives, um, you can see it in people where they've been wounded in one place and they have a physical manifestation of that.

Speaker 2: Oh,

Speaker: thank you. I'm,

Speaker 2: I'm glad I love doing it.

Mm-hmm. Um, and that's why I, I lean into homeopathy too because as you know, um, homeopathy does address mind, body, and, um, spirit.

Speaker: Yeah. A lot of people don't know that. Mm-hmm. And that's one of the reasons for, for my podcast is people hear about homeopathy and they say, you know, maybe they've heard of it, maybe they haven't, but they have no idea what it really is about.

Mm-hmm. And I have interviewed other homeopaths. Um, everybody has a different approach. Mm-hmm. And I think that's. Wonderful. I find that in mainstream medicine, there is one approach, right? Mm-hmm. There's, okay, the book says that if you have these symptoms, uh, this is what you prescribe and this is the outcome, right?

Yeah,

Speaker 2: so, so I really want to make sure, so when I'm asking questions about the physical, I'm also asking questions about the mental, emotional and the history of the person too. Um, so kind of like the timeline, and this includes physical and emotional. So we have physical traumas, surgeries, um, interventions, medical interventions, and then we have the emotional.

You know, the whole picture. And we have to weigh out a lot of times in the beginning. What's more important right now? What, what is the, the outer layer that we're seeing at the moment and address that. Then slowly but surely, address the layers beneath that. [00:05:00] And as you address the outer layers and they start peeling back, new layers emerge.

And then we can address those accordingly. And so you just kind of get all the way down to the core issues. And I will say that most of the time it does come back to, um, emotional root causes. So we get, we get all the way down to that point. Yeah.

Speaker: It starts with the emotion, it gets back to it, right?

Mm-hmm. Yeah. Um, I, I, I saw a, I knew a woman, um, and I've been very, um, I'm pretty body aware. Um, and I, um, spent a lot of time with chiropractors. Uh, good, good, good. Dear friends of mine were chiropractors and he would always talk about the way people, to this day, when I see people standing with their feet.

Out like this. Mm-hmm. That means they have some kidney issues. Mm-hmm. And I find myself, you know, looking at people saying, oh, kidney, oh liver. But, um, there was a woman in town and she had a very overbearing husband. He was a shop owner in town and everybody knew him. And he was just a really gruff guy and she was a sweetheart.

And I watched this evolve over her the time that I knew her, which was probably 30 years. Um. It was so interesting because it was very clear when you looked at her, even if you didn't know her situation, she was just beaten down by her husband. And, um, it, you know, it was, it's just really interesting how the emotional manifestation or the coping mechanism of that emotion, if you can't deal with it, it goes internally.

Speaker 2: Yes. It's gonna manifest physically.

Speaker: Yeah. So it was really interesting. Wouldn't it have been interesting to unravel that, right? Yes. Yes. And, you know, see if her posture actually changed. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah.

Speaker 2: Absolutely. Mm-hmm.

Speaker: Yeah. I, I know that when, um, when you and I talked and you and I did a session, um, that I'm in the midst of, um, you know, going through, which is fascinating.

Of my conversation of my life was important to you. And it was so cool that you didn't go, okay, that's enough. You, you encouraged, you were like, this is great information.

You have to be willing to go there. Not, you're not doing it for the practitioner, you're doing it for yourself.

Speaker 3: Right.

Speaker 2: And I think a lot of people get hung up right there. They, that's where they stop and I get it because it's painful most of the time. A lot of us are not comfortable revisiting those past experiences or past traumas.

But, um. It is necessary. And not that you're gonna dwell there. I don't ever want people to, to dwell there and sit there and just like Right. Bathe in. Regurgitate. Yeah. Bathe in their trauma. But you do have to acknowledge it and we have to figure out a way to move you through it, not stop there or go around it.

Right. If they're not made to feel comfortable, they're not going to share. Right. Right. So. Word to the wise. Like you, you do wanna find someone that you are able to open up to and let them know what's going on so that they can do their best work in helping you,

Speaker: you know? Right. I, I, um, you know, as I was writing it, I was thinking, boy, this is, you know, I don't apologize for my experiences because they, they are what they are.

They were what they were. Mm-hmm. Um, and I am trying to heal.

Speaker 3: Yeah.

For you to know Yes. The person that you're treating, because I know in homeopathy, you know, sort of the basics are, um, uh, you know, how do you feel better when you're, it's hot or cold, do you feel Yes. When you're lying down or standing up? Those are sort of the basics. But yes, when you're going into the constitutional mm-hmm.

Healing.

Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.

Speaker: Um, you have to, I'm guessing. Mm-hmm. Um, the question is, does that information really help you as a practitioner? Yes. Pick, choose the Yes.

Speaker 2: A hundred percent. Yes. And that is, that is why I do, I do use the Chinese Zodiac. Zodiac. And your birth date? Um, birth year to. Kind of pull from that wisdom as well in TCM.

So it allows me to Traditional

Speaker 3: Chinese medicine. Yep,

Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.

And we

Speaker 3: mm-hmm.

Speaker 2: We have emotional, um, traumas and. It is hard. If it's hard for us to go there. We do feel bad asking other people to do that. Well, you're empathetic. Yeah. Yes. Empathetic. Very empathetic. So it's like, we kind of, a lot of times, um, practitioners just teeter on and if they're like, ah, I don't know, this person's not comfortable.

I don't think they're, I don't think they're comfortable. I don't know. You know, and then they just, they won't go there either. So, um, it's, it's important to have that correspondence

Speaker: Yeah. To develop that because mm-hmm. Um, some people may need a little time. Yeah. So you approach it slowly. It's like my, um, acupuncturist, um.

Yeah.

Speaker 2: Yep. Sometimes it does just take time. Yep. Sometimes it does. Just take time.

Speaker: So, um, and, and one of the things that I think, um, you know, I think about in this is the difference between mainstream medicine and homeopathy. Mainstream medicine has had all of this paid funded research, right? Mm-hmm. That is, sorry, but not all of it is, uh, in the.

Um, best interest of the, uh, patient. Mm-hmm. Um, it's paid, a lot of them are paid by the pharmacies that are, and this is actually allowed that, that, um, companies can pay for their own research. Um, so, so homeopathy and alternative medicine has not had the vetted, you know, the money thrown at it to really come up with these studies to say, Hey, we found that this works.

Yes. Yeah. Um,

Speaker 2: for that, for that, I. I always ask the person if they, do you believe in energy? Do you believe in electricity?

Speaker: Mm-hmm.

Speaker 2: Yeah. Do you believe in, you know, the, the earth grounding, you know, um, there's validity to that and, uh, EKGs, you know? Right. So we wouldn't be using EKGs and resonance imaging and all these things in allopathic medicine if, if we weren't energetic beings.

Speaker: Very good. Yeah. And

Speaker: Right.

Speaker 2: So we, we are, and and as soon as you ask that question, they, they're like, oh, well. Yep. I mean, that's true.

Speaker: Yeah. Yeah. It's never been put in that, because I say this in every podcast, in every interview that I do, and, um, because it's important, this information is so, um, rooted in, in, you know, thousands and thousands and thousands of years of healing. It's only when the pharmaceutical companies came in and said, Hey, we can manipulate this to make a lot of money and to control.

Mm-hmm. Um, but I won't, you know, I won't get into, yeah. Um, but so, um, so let's talk about, so there's constitute, there's, there's people that's, you know, I could call you and say, I got a sore throat. It's an acute situation, you know, um, and you would say, okay, you know, is it worse at night, et cetera. And you would prescribe a remedy that would clear it up in, you know, hopefully a few day days.

Speaker 2: Yes. So, okay. Let me see how I, how I can pull this through. Let me see how I can pull this through. So, um. You are good leading up to it with the acutes, because acutes are obviously very physical, although they present at, at the same time as being you, you have this, this equilibrium, right, of physical and mental emotional.

Right. And then this physical part goes way up and is, is expressing itself way more. And that's usually like, I mean, you've got your fevers, your um, your fevers and your runny noses, your sneezing. Um, let's say someone, let's say someone breaks a bone and you have that instant

Speaker 3: mm-hmm.

Speaker 2: Inflammation, right? Um.

And they're like, I'm fine, I'm fine. I'm fine. That's, that's the, um, that's the mental emotional right there. Okay. Yeah. That's the mental emotional connection of Arnica. I'm fine. I'm fine.

Speaker: So that's interesting. So a little child wouldn't do that. A little child would go, no, it hurts. Right? They would just let it out.

They'd express it and. And it would, so,

Because as, as your constitution of a fire, let's just use fire for an example. The element of fire in traditional Chinese medicine is, um, the organs of the fire element are the small intestine and the heart. So. This type of person, this type of constitution, if they're out of balance, they're going to experience more digestive issues and um, heart, cardiovascular, so circulatory, all that.

They light up the room when they walk in, you know, and they're very social and bubbly and obviously out of balance, that person's gonna start to withdraw. They're, they're gonna be, there's gonna be this element of sadness and like, Hmm. You know, that joy is gonna be stifled for whatever reason, you know?

And if there's something that is hard to, that the, that the person has never really been able to digest emotionally, it's going to manifest itself physically with, in their

Speaker: digestion. Yes. I mean, it's interesting because the fire in Ayurvedic medicine, your, your, um, digestive system is your fire, your digestive system, and your heart.

That's your fire, right? Yeah. That's your energy, your furnace. And when you suppress, when you're under stress physically, your body suppresses the digestive system because it's sending the blood and everything out, you know? Back into the fight or flight kind of. Yes. Um, so, uh, yes. Yeah. That

Yeah. So it's, it's gonna be sending your, your PR or your qi wherever you are being d dominated by.

Speaker: Right. Emotionally. But that goes back, if you unravel that, that goes back to the constitutional person. If they, one person stubs their toe and cries and Oh, really? Yes, yes, yes. And the other person goes, I'm fine.

I'm fine. Yes. You know that, that's a key. Yeah. It's a clue. It's a clue. So when you, when you are, when somebody comes in for a constitutional remedy, which to me as I understand it, they're saying, what are the. You know, for me, for instance, you know, what, what is the cr, what is the source of the chronic symptoms that I'm having?

Uh, manifestation and everything. Yeah.

Speaker 2: These are all clues. These are all clues to, to help with constitutional, um, remedy selection. Yep. These are all inclusive. So I'm very observant. I mean, we, I do a lot of observing and I mean, like you said, so, so like you said about, um, this morning you met with someone who told you that, uh, you, they were surprised you were wearing orange, you know?

Right. So, and I, based on my chart. Yeah. And, and when, and when I, we ask funny questions like that because we are, we're being very observant and just like I asked you like, is your hair naturally that color? Right. Were you born with that color? You know. It because it all matters and, and we're just, we're trying to pick up on every little thing and put it all together.

So sometimes we ask funny questions like that where you're like, really?

Speaker: Yeah, but it all

Speaker 2: matters. We're trying to get to, I could say,

Speaker: what do you mean, Mike? This is my natural color. What are you talking about? I'm 70 years old. I don't how many, anyway,

Speaker 2: but this is why, this is why honesty is the best policy because Right.

Speaker: And so let's talk about that for a minute. So how do you, this is, this will be a question for somebody who's really skeptical, right? Yeah. Because are you guys, uh, ruled by hipaa?

Speaker 2: N Yes. I mean, I, I, yes and no. That's, there's like gray areas with that.

Especially if you're like, if you're just a health, if you're not, if you're operating out of network. Yeah. Not really. Yeah. But I always just to ensure, um, I mean respect and responsibility and, um, ethical standards, I do operate under, I make sure that I follow HIPAA guidelines.

Speaker: Yeah. And, and, you know, but, but, well, I guess my question was more guided towards, um, you know, if you are a, um, medical doctor, um, you ha you know, you could be sued, you could be, you know, you could lose your license if you don't follow hipaa.

Is that as regulated with, um, you know, with a homeopath? No. So no, not

Speaker: But, so that this brings to the point of, um, you know, what I find is people who have, I mean, homeopathy, I, I tried. To study homeopathy. And I was like, you know, it, it is. I mean, I've, I haven't studied medicine, but to me it is just as difficult as neurosurgery or neuro, you know, science or, or you know, becoming a full fledged md.

It is deep and wow,

Speaker 2: it is, it's very, um, I call it the OG of quantum medicine. What is that? The, the original gangster of quantum medicine. Yeah. It's, is it not? I mean, I mean, Hanneman, I mean he, he, he didn't even know, he couldn't explain explicitly how it actually works in the human body physiologically, but.

Speaker 3: Yeah.

Speaker 2: So, so it is, it is a true, it is a true system of medicine. Um, but it is very quant me because, and we're getting better at this.

I mean, science, science is starting to recognize, you know, it's coming a long way with being able to measure how it works mm-hmm. With within water and frequencies and things like that. So it, it's,

Speaker: we're working on it. It's, they're called provings, which it would be the similar, similar to, um, double blind studies in medicine.

Right?

Uh, it is being worked on. So it's, it's being proven. Um, it's just taking

Speaker: time documented is more, I think it's been proven over and over again, but documentation, yes. Now it's

Speaker 2: being documented. That's a good point.

Speaker: Yes. And support by the influencers. Yeah. I should say. Yeah. So, um, so, and I love about the memory of water.

We could talk for hours about that, but, um, so how does someone, um, how do I put this? How do you. How do you gain somebody's, um, trust in this, you know, somebody who's very, um, mainstream oriented and, um, IND doctrine and, um, and they, okay, I'll try this homeopathic stuff, but how do I know it works? How do I know I can trust this person to tell, tell me this stuff.

Tone it down, bring it back into balance, bring it back. And I shouldn't say tone it down because it's going to either tone it up or tone it down where wherever it needs to be, wherever it needs to meet. And so that, that's what the remedies are doing. They're tuning your frequencies.

Speaker: Yeah. Okay.

Speaker 2: So I know that does that still sounds a little like it, it is.

Ha It is hard for right put to put it into words and to articulate it is, um, so I do the best I can and usually, I mean, they think about it and it gets them, it does get them thinking on the energetic level where they're like, okay, yeah, I can, okay, I understand that because we are putting energy out and um, you know, each organ in your body is putting a certain frequency out.

Speaker: So let's, let's, let's, um, dial that down a little bit because, uh, I understand what you're saying, but the person who's listening, so a nosode, N-O-S-O-D-E Yes. Is a homeopathic remedy that has been derived from diseased tissue Yep. In the body. Yep. Okay. Yes. And so, um, uh, the, the. I don't wanna say the premise, but the, um, um, at a loss for words here, but it, uh, in homeopathy.

Like cures. Like cures, like, absolutely. So let's say

But there's gonna be a lot of red hot swelling. Um, it could be watery edema. You know, and so you're going use the same substance that Got you. That causes it. Yeah. Got you. You're going to use that, um, diluted and potent eyes b to resonate with your symptoms that are being put out by your body

Speaker: and, and, and, uh, lessen them.

Yes. Help them to leave the body

Speaker 2: Yes.

Speaker: Quickly. Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 2: Help your body. To process it.

Speaker: To process it. Yes.

Speaker 2: Because we carry the, we carry that intelligence, that innate intelligence, but, but sometimes we have to use these remedies to inform the body what to do.

Speaker: Exactly. And, and so, oh boy, this is so interesting.

Speaker 2: Yes. It's, it's dealing with the, so, so in, in a case like that where you get that bee sting, your sympathetic nervous system is going woo haywire, it's like ramped up and it is, it is in fight mode.

Speaker: Yeah.

Speaker 2: And so that apu, malea 30 C or 200 C is going to Yeah. Address, address that sympathetic

Speaker: response. And Apus is the Latin word for B, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I love that. Um, okay. And, and, um. So there's more to your practice than just homeopathy?

Speaker 2: Yes. I, I do, I do love holistic nutrition because it is a huge part.

Speaker: Corporeal. Yeah. Yes. We're very corporeal. We're, you know, we're dense beings, right?

Speaker 2: Yes. And so we do. I have to address that too. Yeah. So if someone, I, so if someone thinks that, you know, you can get better on just homeopathy, you can. But if you're not taking care of yourself, if you're not taking care of your temple physically, right.

It's like your car, you are going to run into

Speaker: another problem right down the road. You can, yeah. You can paint your car a million times, polish it, wash it every day. Yes. But if you're not putting, if you're putting crappy stuff into the engine,

Speaker 2: yes. Right? Yes. So we, we have that duality, right. That we have to tend to, it's, it's, so, I, I tend to the terrain, you know, by tending to the physical body too, and our habits, our daily habits.

Oxidative stress is building in the body. So I try to counter that and address burnout. Address the oxidative stress that is contributing. Um, well, the burnout. That's contributing to the oxidative stress. Mm-hmm. Okay. And the inflammation. Yeah. So, but that is, that does have to do with the mind and emotions, but we just, we just can't forget the, um, physiological aspect to, and that does help to address that.

But then I, and I try to touch on some physical points too, with using, um, let's say the magnesium foot soaks. Mm-hmm. And, um, whole food, vitamin C and just trying to reestablish your minerals so that we can build, you build your temple up, build your physical body up too, and strengthen that. Um, because it, it, it's the holder, it's the, it's the container for our brain, our heart, and.

Speaker: And yeah, I mean, I, I think, you know, the.

We have been and trained that there is a pill for everything. And it's, it's just take the, you have a headache, just take the pill. Mm-hmm. And people are cr people are chronic. I can't tell you how many people say, oh yeah, I just, you know, that my doctor told me it was okay. I could take up to eight Advil a day.

You know? And no, let's not even talk about what the Advil's doing, but the fact that they're suppressing those symptoms instead of saying what's causing this? And so you're constantly, you know, it's like I liken it to a little kid who's going, mom, mom, mom. And the mother's going, be quiet, be quiet, be quiet, you're fine.

Yeah. It, it's, it, it's incon. It's the inconvenient truth. Okay? Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. You can't, I have coached people, um, in, you know, when I used to do, um, you know, coaching, health coaching, yeah. And I would say, well, you know, we would sort of figure out that they're eating, you know, massive amounts of cheese every day, and they've got sinus problems and all these, and I, you know, I mentioned that maybe dairy is, you know, not so great.

Working with them. Oh, I could do anything, but I'm not giving up my cheese. Well, what people don't realize is that dairy products and cheese have the same effect, the same receptors in the brain as heroin.

Speaker 2: Yeah. And, and, and yes. And it's all about finding the balance, right, of, I mean, the cheese is, isn't necessarily the enemy, um, but how we eat it and when we eat it can be Right. So time. Of the day and what you're pairing it with and how much you're eating of it. Right. Anything, too much of anything is obviously we all exactly.

Too much of anything is not good and

Systems in my body. And it's just, it's really, I'm very excited about, um, yes. Working with you on this.

Speaker 2: I'm excited for you to experience the effects

Speaker: Yeah. Of

Speaker 2: doing it all. Yes.

Speaker: Yeah. It's a, it's a lot, but I'm, I'm one of these people that sort of like, okay, let's dive in. Right? Yeah. Yep, yep. Yeah.

Speaker 2: Yes. And I, and I gauge that like, you know, I'm always, I always say like, if this is too much, just let me know.

And like, we can, you know, we can always, and, and always introduce everything slowly. Give your body time to re like, calibrate, recalibrate, right. So, and, and accept and, um, acclimate

Speaker 3: Yeah.

Speaker 2: To, to each new thing. So it, it is fine. Yes. I know. I, I'm, I'm the same when it comes to that, like I do. I do tend to wanna jump in and go full strength on everything.

Speaker: Right? Let's do that. But,

When you do that, because when I work with people, I know that, you know, inevitably I, I'm not gonna work with them forever, absolutely. Ever.

Speaker 3: You know? Yeah.

Speaker 2: Right. You know, and I don't think anyone wants to, you know, have to see me forever. That, that defeats the whole purpose. Right. Well, exactly.

Speaker: Yeah. So I,

Speaker 2: I envision for each client that I work with, that I will someday send you off and you will be self-sufficient.

Right. That's what I want for each and every one of my clients, is for them to learn how to become self-sufficient through Whole Foods, um, you know, circadian techniques and grounding and um, uh, and homeopathy. And, and learning like about the remedies and what, what they can use and what they can lean into.

Or, you know, and it's, and, and I'm always here for people. Like, I always tell my clients, I'm here for you. I'm here for you. Just, just email me.

Speaker: Just Yeah. And you're always gonna have an acute thing where even if you're taking great care of your body, you, you know, you Oh, something's always gonna pop up.

Yeah. You get a sore throat or, or you know, you get the flu and it's like you just need somebody to kind of remind you to guide that guide. Yeah. But you know, the, the, the, I think the most important thing that we can, um, that the, the most important thing that we can get back to is intuition is trusting our right.

Um, yes. Trusting your,

But if at some point you're like. I don't know if I need that right now, or I don't know if I need that anymore. Right. Let's talk about it and, and go with your instinct. Trust it. You know, it's, it's, they're telling you something and we have this, um, ancient wisdom in each and every one of us, and that's what I'm trying to tap into and bring out of each person is that you have this in you.

And you. You can trust it. You can trust it.

Yeah. We have that in us. And we have the innate intelligence to breathe and for our heart to beat. And that's interrupted. The minute you go to the doctor and the doctor says, shot, you know, let's, let's, you know, do this and give you a shot. And Yes. Yes.

Speaker 2: Um, yeah. Yeah. They, it's, it's, yes, we've, we've allowed that bypassing to go on disconnect for

Speaker: the disconnection.

And, uh, there are oftentimes when I will be prescribed a, a, you know, a supplement to take, um, by my, uh, regular doc. My, he's my functional medicine guy. And, um, and I don't, I, you know, I see him maybe once a year. Um, so I haven't reconnected with him and said, you know, should I stop taking this? But I will start to take my supplements and go, ah, and I pick up the bottle and it's like, nah.

Speaker 2: Yes,

Speaker: yes. It was telling me it's that energetic connection, your body's mm-hmm.

Energy is saying No, no. Yeah. But it's um, but if you can't, if you can't, you know, wrap your head around that, just trust that intuition. Yes. Not gonna hurt you to not take it that day. Yeah. The next day it's

Speaker 2: telling you, yeah, you

Speaker: do

Speaker 2: need it today. Yes. And that, that could very well be, I know it's like, you know, you know these labels, you know, on the, on the bottles of everything, say, you know, they, they have to put something on there.

And you, you essentially ask your, your intuition if this is something that you need right now, and that's when the person would sway forward. Meaning, yes, your body needs this or sway backwards. Meaning no, your body does not need this substance right now. So that is useful. A lot of people are utilizing that, which is essentially, I mean also known muscle testing.

Usually chiropractors know how to kinesiologist. Yes. That's how they test your body to see if your body needs that substance at that time. And people are doing it at home that way with the sway method. And you can look that up on online. And there's a lot of videos on YouTube that talk that show how to do sway testing.

I can ask myself, I can ask my own body if it's something that it needs right now.

Speaker: Yeah. How many times have, have, you know, you done, you've thought, you know, you've thought about something and you do it. It's like, I, I, you know, I, I don't know. I don't know. You do it anyway and then, then the outcome comes and you go, I knew it.

Yeah. You know? Oh, yeah, totally. It's just really important that we get back to that because there's so much on the internet. Like Dr. Google, right? Yeah. Dr. Google. Like I saw something the other day and it said, you don't have to change your diet. You don't have to do anything. You just take this. Uh, you know, remedy or, uh, no, it wasn't a remedy, a supplement or something.

Take this formula and you don't even have to stop eating cake. You can eat whatever you want. And I'm like, oh my God. No wonder people are so confused.

Thank the Lord. Yeah. Because of, because of everything that we've done. And, um. So that really bothers me when I hear that stuff on the TV and in, in the media and all that stuff. Social media and everything, and I, pharmaceutical commercials Yeah. And all that. And it's just like, no, this is, so there are no getting back to like what we said in the very beginning of this.

Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.

Speaker 2: There really isn't any shortcut. Right. You have to do the work,

Speaker: right?

Speaker 2: Yeah. You do have to do the work. So if you wanna truly heal and truly get better and, and, and create, um, long-term health, long-term solutions, you know, so you can reap benefits long-term, you know? Yeah. I mean, what good is it if you take, if, if, let's say you take the.

Something to lose weight super fast.

Speaker: Yeah. Right.

Yeah. You know, what can we, what can we address that has been going on in your mind for the past several decades? You know what?

Speaker: Well, yeah. And it, and it's like homeopathy does not have any side effects. That's a beautiful thing too. The shock that people are taking to lose weight. 'cause they don't wanna do the work has.

Big time side effects and you may lose the 50 pounds. Right. But read the side effects. It's not just, you know, oh, I had a little nausea. It's going, stuff is going on in your body that is gonna come out as really bad stuff. Yeah. So you're,

Speaker 2: you're suppressing pathways.

Speaker 2: And your body's always going to try to find the equilibrium and try to find a way to survive, but it's not always how you expect look at in cancer is a great point.

Actually, coming back to that, just to, just to prove my point is that cancer is actually your body's way of trying to survive. Yeah, it's trying to keep it together in that one spot. Right. But it does, it does end up metastasizing, but it's, it's trying to protect, 'cause you can live a long time with cancer.

Right. And things are gonna start to go haywire, you know? Well, it's

Speaker: kind of, uh, you know. Um, so I believe that we come yeah. Onto this plane, um, into this lifetime. We all have a, um, a, a reason, a purpose. Mm-hmm. Right? We all have an issue. 'cause I believe in reincarnation. I believe that you come back with the same, you know, if you didn't learn it this time, you're gonna have a different situation to help you learn it the next time.

And the more you don't learn it, the harder the lesson's gonna be. And that's true in every lifetime that, you know, if you, so, um, where was I going with that? It's, it's just the suppression of things. Um. So if you, if you ignore them, they're just gonna get bigger. And it's like, um, they talk about the, you know, your body is a vessel.

Then you add in all of the things that are being put in our food, in our air, it's in our water. It is overwhelming and it blows my mind that we're still walking on this planet. And so yeah, it's amazing.

Speaker 2: But it's amazing. I say that all the time too. Mm-hmm. You

Speaker: add you and then you add in McDonald's and you know, dunking Donut, sorry if I'm not allowed to say this, but we'll edit it out if can't, but all this sugar and processed foods and your body finally.

Like a Coke, pouring a coke in over, you know, over the, uh, glass. It foams up and explodes. Yeah. Yeah. And it's like a, a, it's like, um, you know, um, if you have a bruise on your body and you keep hitting it and hitting it and hitting it and hitting it, it's never gonna heal. Yeah. But if you leave it alone, if you don't put those stressors on it, it's going to heal.

Yes,

Speaker 2: yes,

Speaker 2: Oh, it's incredible. I mean, you know, you know the, the lining of your. Colon regenerates, your liver regenerates if you, your everything can regenerate. Right? If you just give it enough time and create enough space for the healing, the terrain. I always, I always say, you gotta give it the space to heal and, and it it will, it wants, your body wants to.

Yeah. Um, so we have to stop suppressing pathways.

Speaker: Yeah. Mm-hmm. Yeah. And you know, just to add in, um, you know, I, it's been all over the news and hopefully people are finally getting this, that the, uh, the, um, food companies have actually had to admit and put in writing that they have been putting additives into the food to make it addictive to people knowing Yes.

So okay, that's good. But they don't read down to the bottom where it has Sure. You know, all the other, the fillers, the fillers, the stabilizers and red D, d and C or whatever. Yeah. Like, yeah. All the good stuff because, uh,

Speaker 2: we can't forget that that's a huge billion dollar business still. Right. So we, we have to be discerning in this world.

We have to be very discerning. And that goes back to trusting your intuition and, and always asking yourself, um. So I'm very big into like ancestral, like ancestral eating, ancestral way of life with the circadian habits and all that. Um, so whenever I So explain, explain that a little bit. Yeah. Okay. So I always ask myself, what would my ancestors have said about this product?

I would be touching, you'd be making your food touching? Yeah, I'd be touching leaves and trees and grounding in those ways. The sunlight would be coming in my eyes on a daily basis to signal to my brain and to the rest of my organs what time of day it is, and, and the organs would be functioning optimally for that specific time of day that they should be functioning, functioning optimally.

Speaker: And. If they were living in Northern New Hampshire, they wouldn't be eating pineapples and avocados. Right? Yes. Not right. Not that you, you know, I don't wanna get into saying

Regional.

Speaker: Regional.

Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely. And obviously genetics come into play too. So if, if, I mean, if you know that you are someone who is born, or, I mean, I'm sorry, not born. If you are someone, if you know that your ancestors came from, let's say the Mediterranean region, you would have to say. Well, you know, maybe I should try the Mediterranean way of eating, the Mediterranean diet of fatty fish and fresh, fresh fruits and vegetables and, you know, all that.

And then in winter we kind of go into that hibernation mode where you're having perhaps, perhaps a little more fermented food. Um. You know, uh, more, more, uh, nutritionally, uh, fatty? Well, yes. I mean, higher protein, you're gonna be eating less. In the winter, right? We should be, because we need to be going to bed earlier and all that.

If we're gonna keep in time, keep in with the circadian rhythm, we're gonna want to make our last meal right before sundown, which in the winter in our hemisphere is gonna be, you know, 4 30, 5 o'clock. Right? So we kind of wanna be wrapping it up by that so our digestion is done and complete. By the time we go to bed, we don't wanna have that full stomach,

Speaker: you know, so, right.

I know. It's so great. It's, but Bruce, this has been so great and I, I just, I guess I wanna, um, one question that I always ask is, if you had one wish for humanity, what would that be? Oh,

Speaker 2: I wish that humanity, all humans, collectively, would realize the incredible universe within themselves.

Speaker 3: Mm.

Speaker 2: Love that. And.

Uh, when you start focusing on that, a lot of the existential fears and you can get caught up in all that stuff, you know, the day-to-day hustle and bustle and, you know, all that.

Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.

Speaker: Yeah.

Speaker 2: And if we just focus more on the incredible universe or universe that occurs inside of us on a daily basis without being told what to even do, I feel like our priorities would be, um.

A lot different. You know, I feel like people would focus on kinda what, what, what matters more in life. And, um, it would make people a little more grounded and put things into perspective. And I think we would all treat each other a little more kind.

Speaker: Well, I think that, um, you know, one of the ways to do that too is to sit in quiet in stillness, you know, whether it's meditation, you know, a lot of people say, oh, I can't meditate.

Yeah. You know? Yes. Because it's like, and it

Speaker 2: should be fun, right. Life should be more fun. And I think if we tuned into that more, we, we would have more fun in life. Yeah. Yeah. I think, yeah. More exciting. It, it would be more fun to explore and it is more fun to explore. And that's why when you get into homeopathy, you can't help but go down all these different rabbit holes because it's fascinating and we're a reflection of that.

Speaker: And we have lost that connection. I'm sad to say yes, that we, that there is this universe inside of us that is connected to the universe outside of us.

And the more we, the better we treat the outside, the better our inside and the better we treat our inside, the quicker we will have resolution on the outside. It's like Disneyland inside guys. We can really, yeah. If you look at it that way, it's fascinating. It is. Yeah. Well, thank you so, so much. Thank you so much for having me.

I, this was great and, and you know, you have given, I just love all the information that is, that you have given. And so if people wanna connect with you, how would they do that?

Speaker 2: Yep. So you can go on Real Vitality, um, their website. Yep. If you want to explore homeopathic constitutional, um, appointment with me.

Speaker: Great. Awesome. Well, we'll put that in the, uh, information. Thank you again so much, Ruth. Thanks so much. It's been a pleasure talking with you. It's

Speaker 2: always good to talk to you.
