Can a child’s constitutional remedy change over time?
Yes: absolutely. Children are constantly growing, adapting, and unfolding — physically, emotionally, and energetically. 🌱
Their homeopathic constitution reflects who they are at a given moment: their vitality, sensitivities, fears, rhythms, and strengths. But as they move through different phases of life, new layers can appear.
For example:
• A child who was once a Sulphur type (curious, messy, fiery) may evolve into a more Calcarea carbonica picture (sensitive, slower to warm up, needs security) during a growth phase.
• A child who experienced a major stressor, trauma, or illness may shift temporarily into an acute or miasmatic layer, showing a different picture entirely.
So while their core essence remains, their outer presentation and energetic needs may shift and the homeopath adjusts the remedy accordingly. This doesn’t mean their original constitution was wrong; it simply reflects the dynamic nature of childhood, and how we need to be open and curious to their changes.
Each stage reveals a different piece of their healing journey, and so their remedy requirements evolve with them.
🌸 Homeopathy meets your child where they are — not where they used to be.
