EP 31 - Julie Mann - Home Remedies for Dogs, Cats, and Other Pets

  TODAY’S GUEST: Coming from a diverse background of film production, business management and art curriculum development, Julie Mann discovered her true passion in the practice of homeopathy over 20 years ago. Trained through the School of Homeopathy in Los Angeles, Lou Klein’s Master Clinician course and years of seminars, her practice includes working with both humans and animals. She is the founder of the Homeopathic Collective of Los Angeles, better known to the homeopathic community as the “Monday Night Study Group”, where students and practitioners meet each week to study, share knowledge, and consult on cases. As current board member of the North American Society of Homeopaths, she works to define the role of the professional homeopath as well as to further research and education in homeopathy as director of the NASH Foundation. Her past teaching experience includes being on the faculty at The Los Angeles School of Homeopathy, and supervising the homeopathic clinic at the American University of Complementary Medicine and currently teaches at the Homeopathic Academy of Southern California. She is also the co-founder, grant writer and chief financial officer of The Learning Garden, an organic medicinal herb garden project in Los Angeles which has become the model for school and community garden projects nationwide. She is also a leader in the Sustainable Medicine project of the Transition Town movement in Los Angeles. She is dedicated to preserving our important medicinal plants and the knowledge by which to use them.

Animals are not all that different from us - and the main thing is that their bodies respond better to natural approaches just like ours do. On this episode of the podcast I’ve asked Julie Mann to help me unpack the things you can do to help your animals live a healthier life. You’re going to be amazed at some of the stories Julie Mann has to tell about how her homeopathic approach to animal care has turned around serious health conditions for many pets. This episode is not only full of miracle stories but also highlights some very specific treatments you can use for your animals to enable them to enjoy their time with you and live a long life. Today’s guest is a wealth of knowledge and I asked her to share her top 3 home remedies for dogs and other pets so you can begin to gather the things you need to care for your pets when they have ailments or other conditions. You’ll find Julie Mann’s insights and suggestions very helpful. You can treat your pet’s ailments yourself in most cases using natural remedies. Julie Mann makes some specific recommendations on this episode of the VidalSPEAKS podcast and gives you simple ways to administer and use the things she recommends. I think you’ll find this episode to be very hopeful AND helpful. One of the most important things you can do for your animals is to ensure that they are getting the proper diet - which means that commercial foods are not the best way to go. You need to know that your animals are getting a diet that is as close to what they would eat in the wild as possible. Dry foods from big companies are definitely not that. On this episode Julie shares how a simple change in diet changes health issues in a big way most of the time, so be sure you listen.
