Ignatia Amara

I will talk about another homeopathic remedy — Ignatia Amara.

This is a remedy from a poisonous shrub that grows in the Philippines, Strychnos ignatii, named after Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Jesuit order.

The fruits of this plant contain poisons that cause muscle spasms, nervousness, emotional instability, and irritability.

Interestingly, it is precisely these energies that help when inner pain accumulates and cannot be expressed.

This remedy is useful for strong women who hold pain and grief inside. It helps to re-experience losses and resentments.

Often these are people prone to idealization, with high demands on themselves and others.

Suppressed traumas can erupt in the form of hysterics, which is also one of the indications for this remedy.

The homeopathic remedy Ignatia Amara gently helps to release repressed psychic energy.

frees and unfolds inner restrained psychic energy, instead of repression there arises courage and the opportunity to express oneself.
