Miasms and Homeopathy

As originally stated by Dr. Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy in modern times, miasms are the root cause of all chronic diseases and can be a contributing factor in some acute problems. They are the vibrational foundation of genetically inherited diseases in the body, which are passed on from generation to generation. 

These miasmatic traits include viruses or bacteria that lie dormant in the cells for many years or entire generations in a delicately balanced symbiosis. 

They occasionally flare up, which leads to chronic or acute illnesses, trauma, stress, and old age. 

As individuals age, their vitality weakens, which allows miasms to penetrate the physical body from the subtle anatomies.



Many gem elixirs are extremely valuable in removing miasms from the body. 

It is essential that holistic health practitioners understand the profound impact miasms have on chronic diseases. Underlying miasms contribute to making one susceptible to various acute illnesses. What usually happens today is that the client is treated with natural remedies, yet the underlying miasmatic problems are not even considered or examined. The overt symptoms are treated, but the underlying cause is not confronted. 

Today, only a few homeopaths consider the miasms in their clinical practice. Effectively treating the miasms is essential if the holistic health movement is to reach its full potential of restoring people to health in mind, body and spirit. 

Miasms are stored in the cellular level of the physical body and the subtle bodies, especially in the etheric, emotional, mental, and to a lesser extent, astral bodies. Some miasms are passed on to the next generation genetically by inhabiting the molecular level of the physical body, which is the genetic code.  

A miasm is not necessarily a disease; it is the potential for disease. Indeed miasms are a crystallized pattern of karma. The merger of the soul's forces and etheral properties determine when a miasm will arise in the physical body to become an active disease. This happens only when the etheral pattern projects into the physical body from the subtle bodies. Miasms may lie dormant in the subtle bodies, aura and cellular level for long periods of time. They are organized in the subtle bodies, and gradually through the biomagnetic fields about the physical body, miasms penetrate at the molecular level, then the cellular level and finally the physical body. This often happens as people age and physical vitality lessens. 

There is a general misconception in homeopathic circles that miasms represent the imbalanced pattern that blocks the person's vitality and the life force of a vibrational remedy. This observation is not wrong; it is just incomplete. Miasms are not just darkness or tainted energy; they are more the lack of light or life force-the one true energy. It is the void or lack of life force that is indeed the miasm. The imbalanced pattern and blockage is the void and lack of life force  

The life force is the causal element that arranges the pattern correctly; thus healing occurs when the life force penetrates into the void. Many times, individuals remove blockages but still do not permit the light or life force to enter, thus recreating the circumstances.
