The treatment of psychiatric disorders, anxiety disorders, especially panic-disorder

About Dr Mahesh Gandhi (India, Mumbai)

Dr Mahesh Gandhi graduated as M.D. (Psychiatry) in Modern Medicine in 1981. With a passion for teaching, He has taught in Hospitals and Medical Colleges for almost 10 years. He has written a book in Psychiatry, which is very popular amongst the undergraduate medical students. Dr Gandhi was an Honorary and Head of Psychiatry Department in a prestigious medical college in Bombay, but resigned to pursue an interest in Homoeopathy. He also co-authored many books on subjects related to Psychiatry (not on homoeopathy). Dr Gandhi has been very closely associated with Dr Rajan Sankaran for more than 15 years. Dr Gandhi is a part of his team and has been a speaker in many Homeopathy Seminars arranged for Indian and foreign students. Because of Dr Gandhi’s background in Psychiatry, he has had an opportunity to treat many psychiatric cases. This has given him tremendous insight into the homoeopathic treatment of psychiatry related cases. Dr Gandhi has lectured extensively on Psychiatry & Homeopathy in many cities of India. Dr Gandhi is a popular international speaker on this topic and visits various countries around the world to give seminars, like USA, Israel, Bulgaria, Croatia, Yugoslavia (Serbia), South Africa, New Zealand, Russia, Japan, Spain, Netherlands and Germany. He has been conducting lectures regularly in most of these countries. For the past few years, he has students who come from various countries to India and sit in his clinic for some weeks, to gain clinical experience in Homoeopathy. Dr Gandhi has been appointed as a mentor and a PG guide in Hahnemann College of Homoeopathy- London from 2009 to 2012. Dr Gandhi is now in the process of finishing writing his book in Homoeopathy to share some of his experiences in the field of Psychiatry.

About Dr Mahesh Gandhi’s Seminar

Patients with mental illness present particular challenges to the homoeopath, not least because of the necessity of collaboration with allopathic practitioners. However, mental illnesses are almost as prevalent as heart disease and cancer, so we can expect to see an increasing number of these patients. It is incumbent on us to be prepared. As an experienced homoeopath with a specialist allopathic background, Dr Mahesh Gandhi is in a unique position to bring to bear the insight and knowledge of both fields to help his patients regain full and meaningful lives. Mahesh has vast experience in treating patients with diagnosis both common and potentially catastrophic such as depression, anxiety disorder, addiction and schizophrenia. He will share some of his experience in management and treatment of Anxiety Disorders, especially Panic Disorders in the seminar.
Dr Mahesh Gandhi uses the methods pioneered by Sankaran and presented in the System of Homoeopathy. He will show how patients can be guided to talk about the source of the remedy they require, using tools such as kingdom, levels and miasms.

Anxiety disorders are the most common of all mental health problems, afflicting more than 1 out of 8 people sometime during their lifetime in this country and worldwide. Anxiety disorders cost the United States around $46 billion a year in direct and indirect healthcare costs, about a third of the total annual mental health bill of $148 billion. Of the anxiety disorders, panic is an especially debilitating condition. People with panic disorders experience feelings of terror that strike suddenly and repeatedly with no warning. The attacks are usually accompanied by shortness of breath, dizziness, palpitations, nausea, and/or abdominal distress.

During an attack people often believe that they are having a heart attack or, alternately, that they are losing their mind. Panic sufferers often develop agoraphobia — fear of open spaces — secondary to the occurrence of these unexpected panic attacks. Consequently, they begin to avoid places where they fear a panic attack may occur or where help would be difficult to obtain. If the agoraphobia becomes severe enough, a person may become housebound.

In this three-day seminar, Dr Mahesh Gandhi will present his work including numerous cured cases with patients with anxiety and particularly panic disorders over the last 25 years during which he has practiced homeopathic psychiatry. A beloved lecturer in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, and described as personable and humble, he is making his second appearance in Berlin.

What Rajan Sankaran has to say about the speaker?

  • Dr Mahesh Gandhi is a committed and keen homeopath with a solid background in Psychiatry. I often refer my psychiatric cases to him for advice on their management. It is a pleasure to see his cases and learn from them. He has learnt and mastered all the new ideas and techniques of our school and applied them successfully to cases. His ability to teach is par excellence and he is very popular with students wherever he has taught. As a person, he is a true gentlemen with right intentions. I heartily recommend his seminar to all serious students and practitioners of homeopathy.
  • Dr Mahesh Gandhi is a close associate of mine. He is a committed and keen homoeopath with a solid background in Psychiatry. I have found his cases very illuminating, particularly his work in psychiatric cases and his exploration of remedies in these cases. He is a very good speaker and I heartily recommend his seminar to all serious students and practitioners of homoeopathy.
  • Dr Mahesh Gandhi is a colleague and friend of mine, who, after having been a professor of Psychiatry, took keen interest in Homeopathy and has now worked with it for 15 years. His dedication to the science and his desire for excellence are remarkable. He has learnt and mastered all the new ideas and techniques of our school and has applied them successfully in several cases. His ability to teach is par excellence and he is very popular with students wherever he has taught. As a person, he is a true gentleman with the right intentions. It has been a great pleasure and honor to be associated with him.
  • Dr Gandhi’s background as a Psychiatrist has given him the opportunity to treat various Psychiatric cases with classical homeopathy. I often refer my psychiatric cases to him for advice on their management. It is a pleasure to see his cases and learn from them.

Die „Neue Methode“ von Rajan Sankaran Einführung ins Periodensystem, Teil II

Rajan Sankaran hat sich mit seiner “Neuen Methode” sehr darum bemüht, eine Art System innerhalb der Materia Medica zu erkennen und zu beschreiben, das eine Orientierungshilfe bei der Verschreibung eines homöopathischen Mittels geben soll.

So gibt es das Verständnis der Miasmen, die uns das große “WIE” in der Dynamik der Reaktionen eines Individuums auf jede Lebensanforderung schildern. Grundmuster in den Darstellungsformen (der Repräsentation) der verschiedenen “Reiche” (Pflanze, Mineral/Metall, Tier) im Menschen geben uns eine weitere Orientierungshilfe. Ist das “Reich” beim Patienten deutlich geworden, führen uns die Beschreibungen der wesentlichen gemeinsamem Erscheinungsformen in den “Empfindungen” etwa einer Pflanzenfamilie weiter durch den Dschungel der Flora.

Bei der Auswahl der Mineralien oder eines Metalles ist die sehr genaue Kenntnis des Aufbaus des Periodensystems wegweisend und lässt die Verschreibung sehr präzise werden. Jede einzelne Reihe im Periodensystem hat eigene Thematiken, und die Stadien des Periodensystem geben die subtilen Veränderungen im Umgang und Ausagieren dieser Themen wieder. Hier liegt eine Struktur vor, wie sie Menschen eigen ist, die eine mineralische Arznei benötigen. Und hier ist auch der Einstieg in das Verständnis der “Neuen Methode” vom didaktischen Aspekt her am leichtesten möglich. Diese Struktur möchte ich Ihnen im Seminar gerne anschaulich erläutern, um Neugierde zu wecken auf diese neue Art und Weise, Materia Medica zu betrachten.

Ich bitte darum, ein Repertorium, das Organon und wenn möglich auch das Periodensystem nach Jan Scholten mitzubringen!

„Hormonal balance’s“ and the inner sensation – Gemstones

In this seminar Alize Timmerman will give a lecture about how to treat chronic diseases based on the principles from Hahnemann and his book chronic diseases. She will give an overview on how to use the plant kingdom, the mineral kingdom, and the animal kingdom as well as the monera kingdom (the nosodes).
The main focus in this seminar will be on the gemstones: the mineral kingdom.

Alize is developing the knowledge about Gemstones based on the work of Peter Tumminello and Madeline Evans as well as others who have developed the knowledge around Gemstones. The Gemstones are part of the mineral kingdom and form a very powerful healing group of remedies. The discovery of the right simile of the gemstone-group can succeed if one knows the preference of the color, the light, the crystal form, the content of minerals and radio activity of the gemstone .

Alize will share some cases where she used the gemstones very efficiently.

A long-term cancer case will be shared, where the Emerald gave the patient the opportunity to have a long life after her metastases started. Not at least based on the work of Hildegard from Bingen.

Hildegard wrote:
„Emerald grows in the morning hours of the day and at sunrise when the controlling sun starts her path, then the green and the grasses of the earth have most strength, because the air is still cool but the sun is already warm and then the plants suck up the green so strongly like a lamb sucks the milk. The morning of the day might only be just sufficient to boil the green (morning) power of that day and to change it into food particles from which she can create fruit. That is why the Emerald is very strong in use against weakness of the human being because the sun creates it and its total substance is made from the green of the air“.

Alize says from the time when I was young on I knew there was a healing capacity in the gemstones.

The gemstones contain deep old wisdom and knowledge. The gemstones are the senses of the earth, they are the eyes, ears and smell and taste of the earth. The “deep healing knowledge’’ gives healing to the patient.

Children are extremely attracted to the gemstones, so we will see children cases as well as adult cases.

Alize will share her insights into Moonstone, Lapiz Lazuli, Emerald, Diamond, Rose-Quarts, Amethyst, Quarts, Slate and others.

Alize is the driving force behind the International well recognized Hahnemann Institute of the Netherlands, where she gives an international training and where Colleagues can get a Post Graduate Diploma (PGHom.)

She is doing profound provings and research at the institute.

Last year in Berlin, Alize shared her “universal new remedies” based on her research done in the institute. The remedy group is based on developmental stages in the womb and after. They contain: DNA, Folliculinum, Amniotic fluid, Placenta, Umbellical cord, Lac humanum and Vernix.

During her lectures she will share her insight from her research material.

Hormonelles Gleichgewicht und die innere Empfindung – Edelsteine

In diesem Seminar wird es Alize Timmerman um die Behandlung chronischer Fälle auf der Grundlage der Hahnemannschen Prinzipien und seiner Lehre über die “Chronischen Krankheiten” gehen. Außerdem wird sie einen Überblick darüber geben, wie die „Reiche“ der Pflanzen, der Mineralien und der Tiere ebenso wie die Nosoden genutzt werden können.Der eigentliche Fokus des Seminars wird allerdings auf den Edelsteinen liegen, also dem Mineralreich. Alize verfeinert dabei das Wissen über die Edelsteine, das auf den Arbeiten von Peter Tumminello, Madeline Evans und anderen fußt, die sich um die Erforschung der Edelsteine bemühen. Die Edelsteine sind eine sehr kraftvolle mineralische Gruppe mit erstaunlichen Heilkräften. Die Entdeckung des Similes aus dieser Gruppe kann gelingen über die Vorliebe einer Farbe, des Lichts, der kristallinen Form und natürlich auch über die Mineralien oder gar die Radioaktivität, die ein Edelstein enthält.

Alize wird einige Fälle mitbringen, in denen sie die Edelsteine sehr effektiv angewendet hat. Zum Beispiel wird sie einen schweren Fall von Krebs vorstellen, in dem Smaragd die passende Arznei war und der Patientin die Chance gab, noch ein langes Leben nach beginnender Metastasierung zu haben.

Hier kamen ihr auch die Arbeiten von Hildegard von Bingen zu Hilfe. Hildegard von Bingen schrieb: “Der Smaragd gedeiht in den Morgenstunden des Tages, bei Sonnenaufgang, wenn die Sonne ihren kontrollierenden Weg beschreitet, wenn das Grün und das Gras der Erde die meiste Kraft haben, da die Luft noch kühl ist, die Sonne jedoch bereits ihre Wärme verströmt, dann saugen die Pflanzen das Grün so stark auf, wie ein Lämmchen die Milch seiner Mutter saugt. Der Morgen eines Tages mag gerade ausreichend sein das Grün (den Morgen) dieses Tages zu erwärmen und es in Nahrungspartikel zu verwandeln, wovon sie die Früchte zum Leben erwecken kann. Dies ist der Grund, weshalb der Smaragd so wirkungsvoll ist bei Schwäche bei den Menschen, denn die Sonne gebiert ihn und seine gesamte Substanz ist entstanden aus dem Grün der Luft.”

Alize war schon früh der Auffassung, dass es eine Heilkraft der Edelsteine geben müsse, denn die Edelsteine enthalten tiefe, alte Weisheit und Wissen. Die Edelsteine sind gleichsam die Sinne der Erde: ihre Augen, ihre Ohren, ihr Geruch und ihr Geschmack. Ihr tiefes Heilungswissen kann auch den Menschen Heilung bringen.

Kinder fühlen sich oft besonders stark von Edelsteinen angezogen, so werden wir einige Kinderfälle, aber auch Fälle von Erwachsenen sehen. Alize wird ihre Erkenntnisse zu Mondstein, Lapislazuli, Smaragd, Diamant, Rosenquarz, Amethyst, Quarz, Schiefer und weiteren Edelsteinen mit uns teilen.

Alize ist die treibende Kraft des international anerkannten Hahnemann Instituts der Niederlande. Dort finden internationale Seminare statt und die Kollegen können dort ein Postgraduiertendiplom erwerben. Alize führt an ihrem Institut tiefgreifende Prüfungen und Forschungen durch.

Im letzten Jahr in Berlin hat Alize ihre “neuen universellen Arzneien” vorgestellt, mit denen sie sich lange Zeit zuvor in ihrem Institut beschäftigte. Diese Arzneigruppe fußt auf wichtigen Stadien der Entwicklung im Mutterleib und danach. Arzneien dieser Gruppe sind: DNA, Folliculinum, Amniotic Fluid, Plazenta, Umbellical Cord, Lac humanum und Vernix. Im Seminar wird Alize ihre Einsichten in ihre Forschungsmaterialen mit uns teilen.

Aside from working as a homeopath Lalor also uses constitutional homeopathy within a conventional counselling practice to help her patients understand more about themselves as a particular ‚homeopathic constitutional type.‘ Lalor is able to draw upon her experience of counselling the more ‚unusual‘ constitutional remedy pictures and has written articles on the remedy picture of Agaricus and Alice in Alice’s Adventure in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll; published in Homeopathy in Practice UK. Links magazine have published Lalor’s essay on the characters Frodo and Gollum, and the remedy pictures of Anacardium and Mancinella, in Tolkien’s tale of The Lord of the Rings. Homeopathy in Practice UK 2005 published Liz’s essay on the character of Hamlet as the remedy picture of Muriaticum acidum. The American Journal of Homeopathic Medicine has published an article of two Tarentula hispanica cases and the character of Iago in Shakespeare’s Othello. The article is titled Revengeful Insanity: love; from disappointed: Tarent ula hispanica. Links magazine published Lalor’s essay on three Anhalonium cases and the character of Queen Galadriel in Tolkien’s tale of The Lord of the Rings. The American Journal of Homeopathic Medicine Spring 2007 has recently published an Anacardium case in which the woman who was clairvoyant and clairaudient was aware of all of her sins from this and many lives. The American Journal of Homeopathic Medicine Summer 2007 also has published an amazing case of a Baryta Carbonica Case where the woman has until taking the remedy struggled intellectually as a result of Shaken Baby Syndrome.

Lalor has worked as an integrative natural therapist for 27 years; with a thriving Melbourne practice covering all aspects of health; in particular specialising in the treatment of infertility. Her successful treatment of her son’s illness was the catalyst in cementing her belief in the unique healing abilities of homeopathy, and the altruistic inspiration behind her book. Her book A Homeopathic Guide to Partnership and Compatibility is the first Materia medica to be sold in mainstream bookshops. Lalor is an originator of a Fertility Program based on the ideology of Dr. Leon Vannier which was the inspiration behind the formulation of the program. Lalor has worked with 178 different women and been successful with 154 babies born. Lalor is altruistically inspired to have homoeopathy reach the mainstream public; as with her book, her successful treatment of infertility, has attracted couples who would never have tried homeopathy. Infertility is a modern-day problem faced by millions of women. Links, magazine spring edition 2005, published an article on Lalor’s Fertility Program; which was also previously published in Similia Australia 2003 and Homoeopathic Medical Panorama June 2004 India. It was not until the Links article that Lalor saw the overwhelming need to develop a step by step clinical guide for homeopaths wanting to use the program. Following the article in Links Lalor consults daily via email with hundreds of homeopaths world-wide who are currently using her program. Homeopathy in Practice, UK 2006, has recently published the updated Fertility Program clinical guide for homeopaths. Lalor currently lectures on her Fertility program for homeopaths. Lalor practices homeopathy in Melbourne, Australia.

Über Liz Lalor:

Neben ihrer Arbeit als Homöopathin ist es Liz Lalor ein Anliegen, die Patienten dabei zu unterstützen, mehr von sich selbst zu verstehen – im Sinne des individuellen gelebten Konstitutionstypus.Lalor ist aufgrund ihrer langjährigen Tätigkeit in der Lage, auch die außergewöhnlichen Mittel zu verordnen. Sie hat Artikel über Agaricus und „Alice im Wunderland“ von Lewis Carroll verfasst, die in Großbritannien veröffentlicht wurden. In den „Homeoepathic Links“ erschien ihr Artikel über Frodo und Gollum (Figuren aus Tolkiens „Herr der Ringe“) und die Arzneimittel Anacardium und Mancinella. „Homeopathy in Practice“ (2005) veröffentlichte ihren Aufsatz über „Hamlet“ als die Beschreibung der Arznei Muriaticum acidum. „The American Journal of Homeopathic Medicine” hat zwei Tarantula hisp.-Fälle veröffentlicht, die sie in Zusammenhang mit der Figur des Iago in Shakespeares „Othello“ brachte. Der Artikel trägt die Überschrift: Rachsüchtig aus enttäuschter Liebe: Tarantula hisp. „Links magazine“ publizierte Lalors Aufsatz über drei Anhalonium-Fälle und die Figur der Königin Galadriel (ebenfalls aus Tolkiens „Herr der Ringe“). „The American Journal of Homeopathic Medicine“ (Frühjahr 2007) veröffentlichte einen Anacardium-Fall, in dem eine Frau beschrieben wird, die hellsichtig war und hell-hörend alle Schandtaten ihres jetzigen und ihrer bisherigen Leben wahrzunehmen vermochte. Im gleichen Magazin (Sommer 2007) ist Liz Lalor mit einem außergewöhnlichen Fall von Barium carbonicum vertreten, in dem die betroffene Frau mit ihren intellektuellen Schwächen haderte, die von einem Schütteltrauma als Baby herrührten.

Lalor arbeitet nun seit 28 Jahren in ihrer homöopathischen Praxis, in der sie alle Arten von gesundheitlichen Problemen behandelt; ihre Praxis liegt in Melbourne (Australien). Lalor hat sich im Besonderen auf die Behandlung von Unfruchtbarkeit spezialisiert. Sie unterrichtet in Australien und Europa und hat weltweit in homöopathischen Fachzeitschriften Artikel über die Behandlung der Unfruchtbarkeit veröffentlicht.

Die erfolgreiche Behandlung der Krankheit ihres Sohnes verankerte zutiefst ihr Vertrauen in die einzigartigen Heilungsmöglichkeiten der Homöopathie – und war zugleich die uneigennützige Inspiration für ihr Buch „A Homeopathic Guide to Partnership and Compatibility“ – die erste Materia Medica, die in ganz gewöhnlichen Buchhandlungen verkauft wird! Lalor ist ganz altruistisch gewillt, Homöopathie der breiten Öffentlichkeit der Bevölkerung zugänglich zu machen; nach der Veröffentlichung ihres Buches über die Behandlung der Unfruchtbarkeit kamen nun Menschen zu ihr in die Praxis, die vorher sicherlich nie die Homöopathie als Behandlungsmethode gewählt hätten.

In der Frühjahrsausgabe der „Links“ (2005) hatte Lalor einen Artikel über ihr Fruchtbarkeitsprogramm veröffentlicht, der dazu führte, dass sie ein Schritt-für-Schritt-Programm für KollegInnen entwarf, die ebenfalls gerne ihre Vorgehensweise nutzen wollten.

Dream Analysis for Homeopaths

This seminar will include practical techniques for analyzing the dreams of patients as well as information for the homeopath to work with his or her own dreams. It will help the practitioner become more aware of the levels of the psyche and increase the ability to utilize dreams in homeopathic practice. Dreamwork will stimulate deeper communication with clients and help in perceiving what needs to be healed in each individual case. There will be time in the seminar for demonstration of dream analysis.

It is highly recommended that seminar participants keep a journal of their dreams for a few weeks before the beginning of the seminar. Those who don’t remember any dreams can keep a journal of their personal feelings and insights.

How to use dreams in your homeopathic practice

  • To find the remedy
  • Help understand the patient more deeply
  • To follow the healing process

The seminar will cover:

  • The process of dream analysis appropriate for homeopathic case takin
  • The anatomy of the psyche from a Jungian perspectiv
  • Understanding Archetypes & their relationship to homeopathic remedies
  • How to increase sensitivity to the dream state by working with your own dreams
  • The “waking dream” symbolism and active imagination as techniques for understanding the psyche
  • Understanding the relationship between physical symptoms and dream symbolism

Jane Tara Cicchetti has been practicing homeopathy for over 25 years and is an internationally known teacher and writer on the integration of Jungian psychology and homeopathy. She has undergone over 15 years of clinical supervision with a Jungian analyst and is the author of Dreams, Symbols, and Homeopathy, Archetypal Dimensions of Healing. Her book, which is one of the first to bring homeopathy in line with modern psychology, is available in German as well as English.

Jane is currently working on a second book, Psyche, Matter, and Homeopathy, and is conducting a global proving incorporating Jungian guidelines for dream interpretation.

“A DREAM, VISION OR VIVIDLY REMEMBERED CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCE CAN SYMBOLICALLY REPRESENT THE TEMPLATE FOR THE PERSONS ENTIRE LIFE. THEREFORE, IT CAN, WHEN TAKEN IN CONTEXT OF THE WHOLE CASE- GIVE VALUABLE CLUES TO THE RED THREAD RUNNING THROUGH THE CASE AND INDICATE THE REMEDY.” JANE TARA CICCHETTI

“The dream shows the inner truth and reality of the patient as it really is: not as I conjecture it to be, and not as he would like it to be, but as it is.” Carl Jung

Träume, Symbole und Homöopathie

In diesem Seminar wird es darum gehen, sowohl praktische Techniken der Traumanalyse für unsere PatientInnen zu erlernen als auch zu erüben, wie wir als HomöopathInnen mit unseren eigenen Träumen arbeiten können. Die Arbeit mit den eigenen Träumen ermöglicht es, die verschiedenen Ebenen der eigenen Psyche bewusster wahrzunehmen, und natürlich steigert sie sehr die Fähigkeit, in der Praxis mit Träumen zu arbeiten. Traumarbeit wird die Kommunikation mit den Patienten vertiefen, und zugleich wird sie uns helfen wahrzunehmen, was in jedem individuellen Falle geheilt werden muss. Im Seminar wird es Zeit für die Demonstration einer Traum-Analyse geben.

Es empfiehlt sich sehr, in den Wochen vor dem Seminar ein Traum-Tagebuch zu führen. Diejenigen, die sich niemals an Träume erinnern, können ein Tagebuch über ihre persönlichen Einsichten und über ihre Gefühle führen.

Es wird darum gehen, wie Sie Träume in Ihrem homöopathischen Praxisalltag verwenden können,

  • um die ähnlichste Arznei zu finden,
  • für ein tieferes Verständnis der PatientIn
  • um den Heilungsverlauf zu verfolgen

Im Seminar erlernen Sie:

  • Das Prozedere der Traumanalyse für die homöopathische Anamnes
  • Die Anatomie der Psyche aus Jung’ianischer Perspektiv
  • Das Verständnis der Archetypen und ihre Beziehung zu den homöopathischen Arzneie
  • Wie Sie durch die Arbeit mit Ihren eigenen Träumen Ihre Sensibilität für Traum-Zustände erhöhen könne
  • Der Tag-Traum: Symbolisierung und aktive Imagination als nützliche Techniken für das Verständnis der Psych
  • Verständnis für die Beziehung zwischen den physischen Symptomen und den Traum-Symbolen

Jane Tara Cicchetti praktiziert seit mehr als 25 Jahren klassische Homöopathie und ist eine international bekannte Dozentin und auch Autorin für die Integration der Jung’ianischen Psychologie und der Homöopathie.

Sie hat sich 15 Jahre lang einer klinischen Supervision durch einen Jung’ianischen Psychoanalytiker unterzogen und ist die Autorin des Buches: Träume, Symbole und Homöopathie – Archetypische Dimensionen des Heilens. Es ist eines der ersten Bücher, die den Versuch unternehmen, die klassische Homöopathie mit moderner Psychologie in Einklang zu bringen. Es ist sowohl in Englisch als auch in Deutsch erhältlich.

Zur Zeit arbeitet Jane Tara Cicchetti an einem zweiten Buch (Psyche, Gehalt und Homöopathie) und führt eine internationale Prüfung durch, um Richtlinien für eine Jung’ianische Trauminterpretation zu erarbeiten.

„Ein Traum, eine Vision oder auch eine lebhaft erinnerte Erfahrung aus der Kindheit kann symbolisch die Schablone für das ganze Leben der Person darstellen. Darum kann solch ein Traum oder diese Erfahrung – wenn sie im Kontext zum gesamten Fall steht – aufschlussreiche Hinweise geben für den roten Faden, der sich durch den gesamten Fall zieht, und die Arznei indizieren.“ (Jane Tara Cicchetti)

„Der Traum bildet immer die innere Wahrheit ab, wie sie wirklich ist, nicht wie ich vermute, wie sie sei und auch nicht so, wie ich es gerne hätte, dass sie sei.“ (Carl Gustav Jung)

The treatment of psychiatric disorders, anxiety disorders, especially panic-disorder

About Dr Mahesh Gandhi (India, Mumbai)

Dr Mahesh Gandhi graduated as M.D. (Psychiatry) in Modern Medicine in 1981. With a passion for teaching, He has taught in Hospitals and Medical Colleges for almost 10 years. He has written a book in Psychiatry, which is very popular amongst the undergraduate medical students. Dr Gandhi was an Honorary and Head of Psychiatry Department in a prestigious medical college in Bombay, but resigned to pursue an interest in Homoeopathy. He also co-authored many books on subjects related to Psychiatry (not on homoeopathy). Dr Gandhi has been very closely associated with Dr Rajan Sankaran for more than 15 years. Dr Gandhi is a part of his team and has been a speaker in many Homeopathy Seminars arranged for Indian and foreign students. Because of Dr Gandhi’s background in Psychiatry, he has had an opportunity to treat many psychiatric cases. This has given him tremendous insight into the homoeopathic treatment of psychiatry related cases. Dr Gandhi has lectured extensively on Psychiatry & Homeopathy in many cities of India. Dr Gandhi is a popular international speaker on this topic and visits various countries around the world to give seminars, like USA, Israel, Bulgaria, Croatia, Yugoslavia (Serbia), South Africa, New Zealand, Russia, Japan, Spain, Netherlands and Germany. He has been conducting lectures regularly in most of these countries. For the past few years, he has students who come from various countries to India and sit in his clinic for some weeks, to gain clinical experience in Homoeopathy. Dr Gandhi has been appointed as a mentor and a PG guide in Hahnemann College of Homoeopathy- London from 2009 to 2012. Dr Gandhi is now in the process of finishing writing his book in Homoeopathy to share some of his experiences in the field of Psychiatry.

About Dr Mahesh Gandhi’s Seminar

Patients with mental illness present particular challenges to the homoeopath, not least because of the necessity of collaboration with allopathic practitioners. However, mental illnesses are almost as prevalent as heart disease and cancer, so we can expect to see an increasing number of these patients. It is incumbent on us to be prepared. As an experienced homoeopath with a specialist allopathic background, Dr Mahesh Gandhi is in a unique position to bring to bear the insight and knowledge of both fields to help his patients regain full and meaningful lives. Mahesh has vast experience in treating patients with diagnosis both common and potentially catastrophic such as depression, anxiety disorder, addiction and schizophrenia. He will share some of his experience in management and treatment of Anxiety Disorders, especially Panic Disorders in the seminar.
Dr Mahesh Gandhi uses the methods pioneered by Sankaran and presented in the System of Homoeopathy. He will show how patients can be guided to talk about the source of the remedy they require, using tools such as kingdom, levels and miasms.

Anxiety disorders are the most common of all mental health problems, afflicting more than 1 out of 8 people sometime during their lifetime in this country and worldwide. Anxiety disorders cost the United States around $46 billion a year in direct and indirect healthcare costs, about a third of the total annual mental health bill of $148 billion. Of the anxiety disorders, panic is an especially debilitating condition. People with panic disorders experience feelings of terror that strike suddenly and repeatedly with no warning. The attacks are usually accompanied by shortness of breath, dizziness, palpitations, nausea, and/or abdominal distress.

During an attack people often believe that they are having a heart attack or, alternately, that they are losing their mind. Panic sufferers often develop agoraphobia — fear of open spaces — secondary to the occurrence of these unexpected panic attacks. Consequently, they begin to avoid places where they fear a panic attack may occur or where help would be difficult to obtain. If the agoraphobia becomes severe enough, a person may become housebound.

In this two-day seminar, Dr Mahesh Gandhi will present his work including numerous cured cases with patients with anxiety and particularly panic disorders over the last 25 years during which he has practiced homeopathic psychiatry. A beloved lecturer in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, and described as personable and humble, he is making his first appearance in Berlin.
