Sally Tamplin - American Representative
In June 2002 I graduated from The School of Homeopathy after fulfilling all the criteria for their four-year programme. During my first year at the school I was living in the UK but when I moved to Minnesota with my husband, Cliff, and two sons, James and Giles I commuted to the UK for the school weekends for the next three years so that I could finish my studies as an attendance student at Yondercott. I completed course work in homeopathic psychology, philosophy, materia medica, repertory and case analysis. For eighteen months I undertook carefully supervised clinical practice, based both in the Twin Cities and in the U.K. In order to graduate I had to present ten cases with follow-up consultations. I have also completed courses run by Alternative Training in Anatomy, Physiology, Pathology and Disease.
I was fortunate enough, as a student and during my early days as a graduate, to have had the opportunity to observe, on a regular basis, Jacob Mirman MD and Sujata Owens RS Hom. They are both highly educated and experienced classical homeopaths who work in Minnesota. They have been instrumental in my growth as a classical homeopath. Their dedication and support have helped me to develop further insight and on-the-job experience. In addition, I have received valuable support and education from my clinical supervisor in Minnesota who has been Carey Rudick N.D. and in England from Ursula Somers RS Hom.
New homeopathic remedies are being “proven” all the time and I realize how important it is to continue my education and understanding beyond that of a four-year school diploma. With this end in mind, I enrolled in a fifth post-graduate year at The School of Homeopathy. In October 2007, I completed three years of advanced study with Jeremy Sherr at the Dynamis School of Advanced Homeopathy in the Twin Cities. I have also attended a number of School of Homeopathy seminars since my graduation in 2002. In May of 2005, I spent a week in Toronto studying with the well-known Indian Homeopath Dr. Rajan Sankaran. I have also attended a seminar taught by Jan Scholten and Dr Farrock Master.
In January 2003, I fulfilled all of the criteria to become a member of the Alliance of Registered Homeopaths, UK. I practice by their code of ethics. My homeopathic practice is based in Minnesota where I work with Jacob Mirman MD at the Homeopathic Medical Clinic (Life Medical.)
I am a member of The National Center for Homeopathy and The Minnesota Homeopathic Association. I served for over four years as The Executive Director of The Minnesota Homeopathic Association. For the past four years Dr. Jacob Mirman and I have developed the Minnesota Homeopathic Association Influenza project. I am co–author of the informative web site www.flusolution.net and Dr. Mirman and I designed a pandemic influenza kit currently being sold by Washington Homeopathic Pharmacy. We have also written a pandemic survival manual using homeopathy.
I love to teach. I started out in life as a school teacher—I have an education degree and teaching certificate from Sussex University and I have offered many homeopathic classes to my local community over the past seven years. Just recently I worked with Mani Norland to develop The School of Homeopathy First Aid Course into an attendance seminar. I taught the first seminar recently in Minnesota and it was a huge success. I am hoping to offer many more School of Homeopathy First Aid Course seminars around America in the coming years. Two seminars are already scheduled in the fall for Minnesota and Wisconsin. I will be teaching the First Aid Course this July in Boulder at Hanna Kroeger’s Peaceful Meadow Retreat Center.
I am a Registered Bach Flower Essence Practitioner and a Certified Australian Bush Essence Teacher. Over the past few years I have taught many flower essence classes to the Minnesota professional homeopathic community in order to raise funds for Jeremy Sherr’s Tanzania Homeopathy Project. I have helped to financially support the Tanzania School of Natural Health and Clinic for several years now. I firmly believe that it is important to support homeopathy in third world countries where the need is desperate and our remedies have so much impact. I have also done a lot of fundraising for Frontline Homeopathy and Homeopaths without Borders. I led the Minnesota initiative to raise a considerable amount of money to help a homeopathic doctor who lost his practice and remedies in the Asian tsunami.
I have been resident in the U.S.A. for approximately thirteen years. I live in Western Springs, Illinois with my husband Cliff. My older son, James, now lives in California and my younger son, Giles has just finished his second year at Arizona State University. When I am not busy with homeopathy and flower essences I also practice reflexology and massage (I am nationally certified in both) I love to garden, bike, hike and paint (watercolors) .Currently I am a student at Dr. Christopher’s School of Natural Healing and learning to become a herbalist. I wanted to know more about the plant remedies that are so powerful as homeopathic remedies.
