The Vital Force in Homeopathy: Understanding the Life Energy That Guides Healing
At the heart of homeopathy lies the concept of the vital force—a dynamic, life energy that governs the health and functioning of the body. This immaterial force is considered the essence of life, responsible for the body’s ability to heal and adapt to challenges. When the vital force is disturbed, it leads to disease, and homeopathy seeks to restore harmony by selecting remedies that resonate with the body’s energetic state. At the Canadian College of Homeopathic Medicine (CCHM), students are trained to understand and work with the vital force, learning how to select remedies that stimulate the body’s natural healing abilities and promote overall balance.
