Growing Pains



Life's journey of experiences generates situations & events leading to....

You guessed it....G R O W T H ! ! ! !



Growth is inevitable. Even the earth is expanding, according to some of the smartest people on it. Along with my upbringing of spiritually growing, there was the ever prominent physical growth happening as well. For us females, the physical growth and changes are a bit more gradual, however, we definitely have inner, physical pain associated with growing and maturing.


As a Mother of FOUR boys, I am getting a MAJOR education! It is humorous, but honestly, I didn't understand what boys go through. I admit to being one of those girls that always thought and even verbalized that my male peers were NOT experiencing growing pains as painful as us ladies. While that debate is most likely an on-going one, I am seeing right before my eyes young humans in what definitely sounds to be excruciating pain. Perhaps they have a lower tolerance for pain, but guess what, we parents are the brunt of the expressions ringing throughout the house. ( W H O h e a r s M E ? ! LOL )


Freedom, our eldest, gets the privilege of, for the most part, being first to go through life's typical hurdles. Elan is 16 months younger, creating a slight possibility for him to hit certain milestones before Freedom. But for things like first fall and losing teeth that surely has been true. He also was the first to complain about "growing pains." He complained that his legs hurt so bad he couldn't stand to walk. But that he was still in pain when sitting, it was just easier to handle while sitting. At first I used Arnica because that is for basic pain relief.

(The picture leading this blog is of my 2 favorite resources for Homeopathy at home. In the back pages, in Appendix C pg. 258, there is a list of uses of Arnica: Bruising injuries to soft tissues, shock from injury, concussion, eye injury, bleeding, sprains, soreness, etc.)

But as the days continued he really wasn't feeling different/better. Omar's parents have been practicing homeopathy at home for 40+ years; my Mother in law has studied and retained a great amount. (She has these books too! She gave them to me~ they make GREAT gifts!) I asked her about boys and their growing pains, legs specifically, because she herself has 3 sons who all participated in sports and martial arts for long periods of time. They MUST have needed a good remedy.


Her advise from experience was Cal-Phos.















Calcarea Phosphorica is also in Appendix C pg. 260 ~I will list what it says:

Pains in joints and bones, "growing pains."

Headaches of schoolchildren

Delayed or difficult teething in children, rapid decay of teeth

Delayed closure of fontanelles in top of child's head.

Debility with anemia, sweaty scalp.

Colic whenever child eats, feeble digestion.

Easy vomiting in children.

Craving for ham, bacon, smoked or salted meats.

Promotes milk flow for breastfeeding mothers, when other symptoms agree.

Fractures where bones do not unite or are slow to do so.

Sensations of numbness and crawling.


I like to share as much as I can about a remedy because there is always something to learn. When I got to my own book after her suggestion and read that information I was amazed. Freedom experienced colic as a nursing baby which has lead to us be conscious of his diet due to his sensitive digestion. His cries regarding the pain in his legs brought clarity that this remedy is great for him; it will also help him with his colic/digestion challenge!


Cal Phos became our go to remedy for all growing pains. When Elan and Ocean began complaining, that is what we turned to.


It does occur, sometimes, that we are simply out of the remedy we need, want or are looking for to try. Of course we get it on the shopping/order list, but what do you do in a moment that you don't have the remedy you need?

Ah, great question. Outside of things like a cold pack, or hot compress, natural remedies like that in our houses, we need to know more...


Let's talk about Vibe


Like one of our favorite mentors, Bob Proctor, would say, "Well..." in his ever-knowing, charismatic way, and begin to talk about vibration and who we really are...

We are a big chemistry project. Whether you say God's project or nature's, we are chemicals and vibration intertwined. We have found elements on this planet that support our life. We have discovered plants and minerals that work in perfect harmony with our bodies and help restore our vitality. Frequency and vibration are the basis of all matter, which we are. Which everything is. The alignment between us and remedies is a matter of vibration. When we connect with the remedy that is vibrationally in alignment with where we're at, we find the correct remedy. Scientists and nutritionists, etc, have studied plants and minerals and found that certain one's are routinely in alignment (or vibrationally equivalent) to certain states of vibration an ailment is.

The aspect that I am trying to communicate here is that of vibration. It seems to me more and more people are understanding this~ potentially you are already aware and are too, understanding it more. I am, for sure.


The continuation of this blog is to explain to you how I was able to find a remedy to work for my son even when I didn't have the remedy that was the one I recognized to be the correct one in the past; meaning a few days in the past.

Ocean seemed to complain more about growing pains than Elan. I knew I had success with Cal-Phos for Freedom so I gave it to Ocean and had success as well. A few days later he complained and when I went to get the Cal-Phos I found we were out.

In the moment, regardless of if you get on amazon and click order right then, it's not right then you receive it. (Lol, yeah, they're working on that) You have to turn to something else. If you have nothing and you are just starting to learn about Homeopathy, etc, you will use ice or hot, rest and prayers. But if you are well on your way and you're in this position, like I was, having remedies but not the "right" one, here's the gist of what I am hoping to convey. Because we are vibration and the remedies are vibration as well, we can pull from our inner power, our Will, the vibration we want. This probably sounds a little "out there" or like maybe you don't think this will work for you. That is fine. I always suggest you do what feels best to you. I am offering a different perspective and sharing what I did that worked for me. I was able to look at my other remedies and find among them one that had a similar vibrational match. I did use my Homeopathy at home book. It does help you find numerous remedies for one ailment.

I saw one listed, looked at what I had, I HAD it (a sign? yes!) AND it felt good. It FELT like a match. It was in vibrational alignment with Ocean.


That remedy is Mag-Phos















I gave it to him and within 30 min he felt relief. That was the final confirmation, it worked!

That will always be your final verification.



Mag Phos is typically used for

girls' menstruation. It does say simply 'Cramping' on pg. 210 of Homeopathic Medicine at Home.

Another quick go to remedy for pain, cramping, nerve pain, is Chamomilla.

The book says this is the remedy when

the patient is ornery and/or impossible while in pain.










Ocean Ray feeling back to normal and climbing trees!


Thanks for reading.

I encourage you to be optimistic regarding Homeopathy and know that you can heal yourself.

With the correct remedy supporting your body's journey back to wellness, you do not need to

spend time in the Doctor's office or Pharmacy.

You are whole. You were born with all that you need to be healthy.

Bonus Info:

When I was researching how to explain vibration I found this!

A QUESTION OF CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS Almost entirely beguiled by biochemistry, modern medicine seeks to understand the body's complexities by analysing its chemical components. Understanding disease is a process of reduction in which a solution can be found by breaking the issue down in to its simplest and often most isolated components - disease being essentially biochemical in nature ultimately requiring chemical interventions as solutions. The accomplishments in pursuit of this level of detail are extraordinary yet have been sort after to almost a singular degree. An antibiotic will kill the bacteria present during infection but it will not address the underlying susceptibility that has resulted in the infection to begin with. This is a commonly seen pattern in any recurrent infection where antibiotics have been used including urinary tract, ear or throat conditions. Although the offending “bug” is seen to have been killed the underlying susceptibility remains unaddressed and the condition has the potential to return. Modern medicine’s emphasis on what is physical and what can be seen herald Chemistry as King yet without the dynamic force of physics that initiates the interactions bonding chemical to chemical, we would remain a collection of disconnected elements, a loose pile of lego bricks. Consider you have the perfect collection of chemical elements needed to make a grape, such as phosphorus, magnesium, iron, sodium and manganese. These ingredients in themselves will not result in the grapes creation, it is the energetic life force that animates these chemical components into bonding with intention and purpose that will transform this collection of elements in such a way. This intelligent and self-determining dynamic is the vital force and it is this force that integrates the physical, mental and emotional selves and is the very energy that enables one to heal. ENERGY HEALING Homeopathy endeavours to address the root cause of dis-ease, which is apart from accident or injury, energetic in nature. Working with but also beneath and beyond the physical is to heal at great depths - energetic medicine changes the very nature of the soil that predisposes us to particular patterns of disease. This is a process of following the body’s innate intelligence and an understanding that the body will manifest symptoms in its attempts to heal. Rather than suppress these attempts homeopathy works with the body, its medicines are the key in the ignition of the car that gets the engine started. The unassuming “little white pills” are each medicated with their diluted and potentised medicine and are electromagnetic in nature - remember we are working with energy and frequency. Once placed under the tongue the Arnica 200C, in essence a signal, travels through the central nervous system facilitating the body's self-healing mechanism which in the case of an Arnica-state will mitigate the internal bleeding and calm the inflammatory response while providing the space for the emotions and sense of shock to be processed. As Albert Einstein surmised, we are energy solidified and it is at this energetic and atomic level that homeopathy works.


Ephesians 4:22-24

"To put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness."


Psalm 51:10

"Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me."
