Medicine with Meaning

Dr Sandy Dinsdale was a General Practitioner for 30 years. Her clinical roles in primary health care include family medicine, integrative medicine, care of older people, and prisoner health.

Sandy completed her Diploma in Homeopathy in 2003. Experience in conventional medicine and homeopathy have confirmed her understanding that disease always involves the whole person. Therefore, a holistic approach to health for mind, body, and spirit is essential.

In her book, Medicine with Meaning, Sandy explains why she became a Homeopath, and shares personal and patients’ stories from this unique journey of discovery.

Soul & Survival

In HFA, homeopathic miasms are now known as Colour Groups. Only one of the 7 Colour Groups is dominant for each person, and persists throughout life as our features change with time.

Based on the historical work of Dr Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy, HFA expands Hahnemann’s three original groups (miasms) to include four complex groups. The seven groups of inherited stress response are brought to life in the book, Soul & Survival, written to inform the general public. Author, Grant Bentley captures the essence of Hahnemann’s observations regarding chronic disease, and illustrates how evolution influences disease expression for each individual.
