Begin 2026 well: a homeopathic guide

A very happy 2026 to you.

New Year’s resolutions are often made with the very best intentions and with the will to improve our lives. However, January in the UK presents challenges to the strongest of us. Homeopathy can provide gentle support to keep you well and motivated to pursue those goals for renewal that you have set.

The following remedies can be very helpful at this time of year:

Ferrum Phos – the last thing you need is a cold when you’re trying to begin the year well. This remedy is a fantastic first line defence remedy if you feel like you are coming down with something like a cold or flu. If it’s a child, the remedy is more like to be Aconite in the same situation, but Ferrum Phos is often better indicated in adults.

ARR (Arnica, Rhus and Ruta) – this combination remedy comes in very handy if your new year resolutions include hitting the gym. The remedies ease soreness post exercise.

Ignatia – if the new year is emotionally triggering for you and it makes you feel tense, you experience roller-coaster emotions or overwhelmed, Ignatia may well be helpful.

Nux Vomica – if your new year pledges to yourself are very ambitious and you find yourself turning to stimulants to help you keep them, this remedy may well be the one for you. It’s especially likely to be your remedy if you routinely tend to overdo it and get very easily irritated.

Calcarea Carbonica – a brilliant homeopathic support for those who might lack the energy and motivation for change. The sofa with a blanket and a boxset always seems a nicer option.

This is just a handful of a whole array of excellent homeopathic remedies that can be of enormous help at this and all times of the year. Please feel free to get in touch for more information – and good luck with the resolutions!
