The homeopathy branch of the Service-Plants product line is being developed by Begabati Lennihan, RN, CCH (Certified Classical Homeopath).
Begabati went to Harvard like most members of her family, intending to be a doctor like her father, but while there she discovered natural healing. She graduated at the top of her class and, in a truly unusual career move, opened a health food store instead of going to medical school.
While running her health food store, Begabati was impressed with the vast healing power of homeopathy on the emotional and energetic as well as physical planes. When she began studying homeopathy professionally, her first mentor was internationally famous homeopath Dr. Luc De Schepper. She edited his textbook Hahnemann Revisited and his guide for home health care, The People's Repertory, as well as a homeopathic dictionary used worldwide.
Begabati co-founded the Renaissance Institute of Classical Homeopathy with Dr. Luc in 1996 and when he moved it from Boston to the West Coast, she brought Teleosis School of Homeopathy from New York to Boston. 'Teleosis' is a biological term meaning the urge inherent in all living beings towards greater consciousness and higher evolution; spiritually it means the urge to self-realisation.
Begabati practices classical homeopathy at The Lydian Center for Innovative Medicine in Cambridge, Mass. She is Director of Teleosis School of Homeopathy and an adjunct lecturer on homeopathy at Mass. College of Pharmacy. She teaches meditation and lectures on homeopathy at Harvard University Health Service's Center for Wellness.
