Welcome to M3.2! Materia Medica: How to Study the Materia Medica

Welcome to the first lecture of Module 3.2! Rote memorization, while a familiar tactic in veterinary school, does not serve us well for internalizing the voluminous information available about our homeopathic remedies. This lecture discusses a coherent plan for building pictures of each remedy that will persist in our memories and facilitate retrieval while studying our patient cases. We will discuss the various materia medicas available to us and their construction, how to prepare for study, as well as our end goals. What makes one remedy stand out over the others? This lecture will guide you to the salient properties worth careful consideration for each remedy, and help you construct your own unique memory pictures.
