Email sent by some of our CPD graduates to the Lakeland Graduate Circle...

"Dear all,

A number of us Lakeland Graduate Circle people are just about to finish Paul Francis's One Year Integrative Course based on his Energy Model (indeed, one of us has done it for the second year running, such was her enthusiasm the first time round).

In case any of you are wondering about it, I think we would all deeply recommend it.  We have pooled all the benefits we have felt from doing it, and they are:

1. Paul's humility as a teacher
2. Great sense of group togetherness and the feeling that we are part of something special.
3. The feeling that this is truly something new and extraordinary in the world of Energy Medicine
4. Much more confidence and flexibility as practitioners
5. A for-the-first-time rounded picture of how all levels of medicine can work in harmony together, from diet, to herbs, to homeopathics, to elixirs and essences, to colours and light.
6. An understanding of Paul's Energy Model, which is extremely convincing, because it starts with the nature of energy and matter and then shows how everything derives from that - light, chakras, how the traditional 5 elements relate to matter (ether, air, fire, water, earth), how flower essence energy works, how homeopathic energy works, why diet and herbs and material medicine is important, and much much more . .
7. A whole bunch of cases, brought in by us the participants, which helped us to come to a new and more effective case-taking approach and analysis.
8. An in-depth look at many of the ranges of essences and elixirs that are available, how they differ, and what they are most appropriate for.
9. A brief course in shamanic practice, and how it can enhance our practice as homeopaths.
10. Related aspects of bodywork and psychodynamic issues
11. It's possibly especially good for those people who have done a number of weekend courses over a number of years, and now are looking for something a bit more solid and continuous.

In short, it pulled a lot of past things together and put everything into perspective - an integrative model indeed.  And the fact that it was a year was a big plus, because the continuity built up week by week into an amazingly practical and pretty sophisticated whole.

We are:  Alexis Pfeiffer, Leyla Cook, Julie Evans, Elaine Nuelle, Carol Houchin, Diana Andrews, Annie Smuts, Annie Hlava, and Charles Lowe.

With best wishes,
All of us LGC members"

"Hello Everyone,

 

I have done two years postgraduate training with Paul Francis who is a remarkable and inspirational teacher. He has devised a very practical method of prescribing, integrating chakra colours, flower and gem essences, homeopathic remedies, herbal tinctures, diet and nutrition.

I can't recommend this course highly enough and it has had a very positive impact on my practice. Apart from explaining the human energy system and its relation to the five elements, the course envolves personal development and Shamanic journeying as Paul Francis is both a gifted psychotherapist and Shamanic practitioner.

Quite a few ARH members have done this course and I know like me, they feel the experience was invaluable.

Regards,

Alexis Pfeiffer"   

Feedback from other students...

“I have always wanted to be a truly holistic therapist… this course has brought all the knowledge (and more) together for me in a way that is easy to practice. A Gift! Ho do you pull all the threads together in a manageable way that is easy to practice? Easy, join this course. A truly holistic and enlightening approach.”

“If you want to be holistic, inspired, motivated as well as being taught in a unique and articulate style, take this course. It brought everything together for me wonderfully in a way that will benefit both me and my clients.”

“I have found the course invaluable. All the understanding and knowledge that I had previously gained has been brought together as a whole and I have a working model for integrating all aspects as a practitioner.”

“Why this course? This is the question I asked when considering whether to join the first batch of students to experience what proved to be a unique course. I did not know what to expect but I know that I wanted something different that would add to and expand my knowledge – I was not disappointed.”

“I like the way Paul relates homeopathy with the human energy system; this has given me a completely new way of looking at human beings and the remedies, together with flowers, herbs and other things that I can prescribe for them using a truly holistic system. The course has been innovative and challenging; it has allowed me to develop my own skills within a safe, nurturing environment. The lecturers present thought-provoking subjects with skill and creativity, which has enhanced my knowledge greatly. This course has been a rewarding experience for me. Not only has it enhanced my understanding and skills, it has also changed my attitude and approach to homeopathy. On a personal level, I have developed and invaluable insight into how I work.”

“The practice in case taking skills has helped me to see where I can change to gain more information and to help my clients feel listened to. It has really given me confidence when dealing with clients and their problems. And I have gained confidence in case analysis. This for me has been outstanding.”

“The course is absorbing, stimulating and complementary to any previous knowledge of homeopathy. Time and money well spent.”

“The best recommendation I can give is to tell you that, although the course was only originally meant to be of one year’s duration, all the participants have requested that a second year be run!”

“The course has expanded my horizons and opened my mind. It has been a truly inspiring and wonderful experience”

“Truly fascinating and empowering. It has given me a profoundly useful model to use, not only in my practice, but also in my life as a whole.”

“The teaching staff are authentic, knowledgeable, skilful, and empowering.”

“This is far more than just a homeopathy course (and it is a brilliant homeopathy course), this course can change your life for the better.”

“So many questions answered, at last!”
