Natural solutions for ear infections abound. Some are short lived, but still very useful in an acute situation. Others are much deeper in action and can heal the tendency to develop ear problems.

There are probably three main areas. The first one is health care, common health care, which is more akin to disease management

The medical industry are still scrabbling to find causes for all manner of health issues. However it’s quite easy to see where causes lie when you are open minded, when you are not tied to the results and when you appreciate natural laws. After all, we, and all other animals, have managed really well to survive so far, without their help.

All health stems from the health of our immune system. When healthy, this intangible part of us is in a constant, but gentle, state of alertness. Whilst we are teeming with natural pathogens such as bacteria, (that out number our own cells) whose job is to keep us healthy, some are not so healthy.

A healthy immune system, that has evolved over millenia, knows which ones are not healthy and will repel those it deems unsupportive to health, which are trying to gain entry.

It does this in a variety of ways. In an immature immune system, such as with a child, it will throw a fever. A healthy child will throw a short lived, high (and worrying) fever. An unhealthy child will throw a long lived, low grade fever.

The high fever is the successful one, which will deny any unhealthy pathogen entry. The low grade fever may not be so successful.

This is the purpose of fevers and they should be left alone to do their job, or supported naturally. Suppressing a fever, which is a common medical tendency, leads to a weaker immune system, exactly the opposite of what a growing child, or anyone else, needs.

A common scenario is suppressing a fever after a vaccination. This can lead to horrific consequences especially in sensitive children. A healthy body is trying to repel the unnatural ingredients in the vaccine that have no business being in the blood stream.

The second one is the common, and usually dreadfully unhealthy, diet of western countries, with their influence spreading.

This diet is just not suitable to human health. A diet high in fast food, refined oils, animal protein and pre-packaged food may be convenient, but doesn’t support a healthy immune system. Ear infections, especially in children, will abound in those who are susceptible.

Humans are designed to eat a lot of fresh fruit and vegetables, which contain all the nutrients we require, as well as all the roughage, or fibre, we need. 

You only have to look at our teeth to appreciate that. We have flat molars for grinding up the tough cellulose found in plants. We don’t have the spiky teeth carnivores have.

The third one is our living conditions and relationships.

Much of our immune health starts in childhood. When the living conditions are inhospitable, when the parents don’t support the natural expression of a child, the child compensates. The compensation can be minor or major. It helps the child through the unsupportive situation, but at a potential cost to their health.

These compensations often become a habit hard to shake and so they shape the adult, often to their detriment.

This means that infections don’t come from the outside. They come from the inside. Although infectious agents are outside the body, it’s the health of the immune system that prevents their entry. Which is just as well as there are trillions of infectious agents in every breath we take. It’s only the wisdom of our body that keeps them from killing us!

So, what do you do from where you are?

Homeopathic health care doesn’t just help an acute ear infection, it heals the tendency.

Eat according to your evolution.

Spend time in the sun, exercising, ‘smelling the roses’ (ie in appreciation and being in the moment).

Do what makes your heart sing, what makes you happy. Fix, or leave, an unhappy relationship, job, home, etc.

You might not be able to put them all into action immediately. Fixing a relationship can take time. Adjusting your diet can take time. Finding a new job can take time. But once they have become part of your plan of action, you become more hopeful and positive. Doors will start to open for you.

The one thing you can put into action immediately is to get homeopathic help, which offers perhaps the best natural solutions for ear infections, every other infection and all health issues, be they physical, emotional or mental.
