Welcome!

I am pleased about your visit on my web page.
Here you will find information about my practice and my teaching activities.

Martin Jakob

Since 1996 I have been practicing homeopathy in my own practice and since 2005 in a group practice with my brother Franz Jakob.

Further information about my practice can be found here: www.c1000.de.

The experiences I gather daily in my practice and the knowledge I have gained with Dr. Jan Scholten’s Periodic and Plant System I gladly pass on in (inter-) national seminars.

A further focus of my work is the execution of homeopathic examinations to support and advance the plant theory.

You can also find my collected experiences and findings in my books and other publications.

Information around homeopathy

What does healing in homeopathy mean?

The most impressive characteristic of homeopathy is that it can cure chronic diseases. Patients in traditional medicine have to learn to live with their disease and take medication for the rest of their lives. A truly suitable homeopathic medicine cures the disease and one does not have to continue taking the medicine after the cure.

What is the success rate?

Can homeopathy heal everyone? Based on practical experience, the answer is no. From a theoretical point of view, the answer is yes.

Because many more medicines have to be added to the homeopathic treasure trove.

This is necessary because a medicine can only cure one problem. This is derived from the law of similarity: similar things are cured with similar things. Any substance from the animal, plant or mineral world can be a medicine. Every substance potentially has healing properties. Just as every substance is potentially toxic, it only depends on the quantity.

Homeopaths are constantly expanding their pharmaceutical treasure trove. Because homeopathy, like any other effective science, is constantly developing. Therefore, modern homeopathy is more effective than homeopathy ten, twenty or thirty years ago.

What is disease from the perspective of homeopathy?

Disease is different for the homeopath than it is for the normal doctor. For homeopaths, the doctor’s diagnosis is a symptom, or a set of symptoms. It is similar to the Middle Ages when fever was diagnosed. Today we know that a variety of diseases can cause fever. Today this is the same for homeopaths with diagnoses of arthritis, bronchitis, depression, etc.

The question is, where does the disease come from?

For conventional medicine, disease is something that comes from the outside, from pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, etc.

Homeopathy has shown that diseases come from the inside, from oneself.

It is patterns of thought, beliefs, generally speaking, the “organization of human experiences” that lead to a certain view of the world. The views are often associated with needs that are not met, which can lead to frustration, anger, unhappiness, and which prevents light-heartedness.

Homeopathy helps people to become free from these patterns and inadequate needs and therefore from the associated disease.

How does homeopathy work?

Homeopathy is information.

It is often accused of containing nothing, that nothing is contained in the medicine. That is correct. There is no chemical substance contained in the medicine and this again contradicts conventional medicine, which is limited to matter, to the physical body.

Homeopathy involves the mind, the consciousness, both in relation to the disease and in relation to its medicines.

Homeopathy can be compared to music CDs. Whatever music is contained on a CD, the chemical analysis of the CD will always be the same. The information contained on the CD is the essential factor and this must be analyzed in a different way.

With the music CDs this is done by the CD player, in homeopathic medicine the information can be “read” by “living organisms” humans, animals, plants.

Sickness as a personality

A comprehensive view of illness that I prefer is illness as a personality. Humans are a system of different personalities. The personalities with their respective goals can be contradictory to each other and also lead to conflicts within the system. Every personality has its history.

Each of these personalities has his point of view, his talent and wants to achieve something, or to belong to a group, idea. For example, a child personality wants a protective family. An artist personality wants prestige and admiration. A teenager personality wants to be interesting and have a place in their peer group, etc.

One can regard such a part or personality as an independent person who was “forced” into this role by his life story, e.g. a problematic childhood.

We develop different personalities in the course of our lives and “we are them, live them, use them” in different situations of life. We behave with our friends differently than in our work and again we are someone else at home with our partner or family.

One’s own culture is a personality that one can often only become aware of when travelling to “foreign” countries or living in other cultures.

One can take over personalities from the family system or from “other lives”.

These personalities become a problem when we identify with them and most people think that they aretheir personalities with their history. They are fixed and identified with this entity, with this bundle of thoughts.

We are then constricted and can only behave or perceive the world in a certain way and this leads to conflicts or to the need as to how the world should be.

People are busy or occupied, they are no longer open to this here and now with all its beauty and liveliness, it is a kind of “obsession”.

This leads to unhappiness, tension, anger, stress, etc. – to illness.

Healing happens when we perceive that we have identified with a personality and can let go of it. This happens when we become aware of this identification and perceive that we are not this personality at all. The result is that clients, in addition to being free of symptoms, describe themselves as more free and lighter, happier and with more energy. The energy that has been absorbed by the personality is now freely available again, one is more “self” again and thus in more “self-guidance“.

This in practice means that every personality with its history and its associated symptoms of illness needs a medication similar to this “personality and its history”.

In practice this is sometimes a difficult task, because which symptoms belong to which personality/story?

One possibility is to follow the time axis in order to find out at which time the disease arose, which problem, which personality with its desire, goal was in the spotlight at that time. This explains why in the course of time the patient has become healthier and more comfortable, but the symptom for which he originally came to the practice has not necessarily disappeared. No suitable medication has yet been found or prescribed for this personality, or it has not yet been produced as a homeopathic medication that corresponds to this personality/story.
