vendredi 24 octobre 2025 • Duration 15:30

Episode 1: My Journey Through IVF and Postnatal Depression

Welcome to the very first episode of Homeopath in Your Pocket! Before we dive into all the practical health advice in the coming weeks, I want you to know who I am and what I've been through.

I'm Neela Prabhu – a licensed homeopath, former pharmacist with 26 years of healthcare experience, and mum of two girls. I understand the juggle of family life firsthand, and I'm here to support you.

New episodes drop every week with practical tips you can use TODAY to support your family's health naturally.

In this deeply personal episode, I'm sharing two of the biggest challenges I've faced: my 10-year fertility journey and my battle with postnatal depression.

What you'll learn:

My experience with 'unexplained' infertility and the emotional rollercoaster of IVF
How complementary therapies (acupuncture, homeopathy, hair mineral analysis) supported my fertility journey
What postnatal depression really looks like (and why it's so misunderstood)
How I rebuilt myself after hitting rock bottom
Why I'm so passionate about supporting women through their hardest times

If you're struggling with infertility, if you've experienced postnatal depression, or if you've ever felt completely alone in your health journey – this episode is for you.

I'm sharing this because I want to break the taboo around infertility and mental health. The more we talk about these things, the less power they have over us.

Season 1 · Episode 4

mardi 18 novembre 2025 • Duration 12:45

Episode 4: Understanding Grief and the 7 Stages of Grief

Grief is one of the hardest experiences we face as humans, yet it's still so taboo to talk about openly. Whether you've lost a loved one, experienced a relationship breakdown, lost a beloved pet, faced redundancy, or struggled with infertility – grief shows up in so many ways.

In this episode, I'm walking you through the 7 stages of grief (according to bereavement charity Cruse), explaining why grief is so individual, and sharing how homeopathy and natural therapies can support you through this difficult time.

The 7 stages of grief:

Shock –
Pain –
Anger –
Guilt –
Depression –
Longing –
Other people's reactions –

Why grief is individual:

There's no right or wrong way to grieve
Is time really a healer? (My honest thoughts on this)

How to support yourself or someone grieving:

Where to find support (Cruse Bereavement Care, NHS counselling, support groups)

Homeopathic support for grief:

Top remedies: Ignatia, Aurum met, Nat mur
For shock: Arnica or Opium
Bach Flower remedies (Star of Bethlehem, Walnut, Honeysuckle, Sweet Chestnut)
How to match remedies to your specific symptoms

Resources mentioned: Cruse Bereavement Care (www.cruse.org.uk)

Perfect for: Anyone navigating grief or supporting someone who is.

Pregnancy Symptoms: Natural Relief for Morning Sickness, Heartburn and More

Season 3 · Episode 4

mardi 10 mars 2026 • Duration 08:45

Pregnancy should be a happy time, but the symptoms can absolutely ruin it. If you're feeling rotten right now, I want you to know there ARE natural ways to feel better.

Today I'm walking you through 5 common pregnancy symptoms and how to ease them without reaching for medication (because let's be honest, most conventional meds aren't safe during pregnancy anyway).

In this episode, I'm covering:

Morning sickness: 80% of women get this - and it's the worst-named symptom ever because it happens ANY time of day! I'm sharing what actually helps, including the one thing you should keep by your bed and eat before you even sit up.

Cholestasis: This is itchy skin with no rash. Sounds simple but it can be maddening, especially at night when you can't sleep. I'm explaining when it's just annoying versus when it's dangerous and needs monitoring.

Piles: Incredibly painful and uncomfortable. Sitting becomes agony, going to the toilet becomes something you dread. I'm sharing a simple pharmacy solution that soothes and shrinks them.

Heartburn & reflux: When your growing baby pushes on your stomach sphincter and eating or drinking becomes misery. I'm revealing what helps keep that fire in your chest under control.

SPD (Symphysis Pubic Dysfunction): Some women say it feels like their pelvis is splitting in two. Absolutely agonising. I'm sharing the support options that actually work.

I'm also revealing the homeopathic remedies that are 100% safe at all stages of pregnancy and help with every single one of these symptoms - from Sepia for morning sickness to Aesculus for piles.

Pregnancy should be joyful. These symptoms wipe the smile off your face. But you don't have to just suffer through it - there's help available, and it's all natural and safe for you and baby.

Infertility Support: Natural Ways to Improve Fertility for Men and Women

Season 3 · Episode 3

mardi 3 mars 2026 • Duration 12:46

Today I'm talking about something deeply personal: infertility. 1 in 7 UK couples struggle with fertility issues, and I was one of them. I suffered from unexplained infertility for years before conceiving both my daughters through IVF.

If you're struggling to conceive right now, I want you to know you're not alone. I've felt that pain, that desperation, that monthly heartbreak - and I'm sharing what actually worked for me and my husband so you have hope and practical steps forward.

In this episode, I'm covering:

The real causes of male and female infertility (it's not just a "women's issue")
A shocking trend about sperm counts that should worry us all
What conventional treatment offers (and why it's so exhausting)
My top 5 tips that helped me conceive my two healthy daughters
Why acupuncture made all the difference for us
The surprising everyday things that harm fertility (you probably don't know about these!)
Homeopathic remedies that support conception
A personal message if you're in the thick of this right now

One of my tips involves something you're probably using that you absolutely shouldn't be if you're trying to conceive. Another is about what Japanese cultures do years in advance that we completely ignore in the West.

I'm being completely open about my IVF journey, the invasive tests, the emotional toll, and what finally worked. This isn't just clinical advice - this is real, lived experience from someone who genuinely understands what you're going through.

If you've been trying for months or years, if people keep asking painful questions like "When are you having kids?", or if you just need to hear from someone who's been there - this episode is for you.

Shift from Overwhelm to Gratitude: A Simple Gratitude Journalling guide for Busy Mums

Season 1 · Episode 6

mardi 2 décembre 2025 • Duration 12:05

Episode 6: Keeping a Gratitude Diary

I kept a gratitude diary for 2 years during my postnatal depression journey. Some days, all I could write was "I've put the laundry on today" – and that was enough.

I still keep one on my phone on an app called Presently as the lessons I learned have stayed with me. The practice genuinely changed the way I see the world, and I think it could do the same for you.

In this episode, I'm explaining why keeping a gratitude diary is so powerful, how to get started (even if you're not a "journaling person"), and sharing prompts to help you when you get stuck.

3 reasons to keep a gratitude diary:

It helps you focus on the positive aspects of your day
It puts things into perspective
Looking back shows you how much you've achieved

How to get started:

Pen and paper vs phone – which is better?
Why consistency is key, and why you might not notice a difference for while
When to write (end of day vs morning)
How long it takes to become a habit
I also cover prompts to help when you're stuck

Perfect for: Anyone struggling with mental health, feeling overwhelmed, or wanting to shift their perspective.

PCOS, Endometriosis and Fibroids: Natural Support for Women's Health

Season 3 · Episode 2

mardi 24 février 2026 • Duration 12:35

Today I'm tackling 3 lesser-known period-related conditions that affect millions of women: PCOS, endometriosis, and uterine fibroids. These conditions are often misdiagnosed, dismissed, or women suffer for years before getting proper support.

If you're dealing with any of these, I want you to know you're not alone - and there are natural ways to support your body that your GP probably hasn't told you about.

In this episode, I'm covering:

PCOS: Affects 1 in 10 women (but 50% are undiagnosed!). I'm explaining what's really happening in your body, why those cysts aren't actually the problem, and the emotional impact that shouldn't be underestimated.

Endometriosis: Also affects 1 in 10 women, but here's the shocking bit - it takes an average of 8 YEARS to get diagnosed. Eight years of suffering before anyone believes you. I'm sharing why women are so often dismissed and my top tips for getting the diagnosis and support you deserve.

Uterine Fibroids: 1 in 3 women aged 30-50 develop them. I'm explaining what they are, who's most at risk, and what actually helps.

I'm also revealing the supplements that support all three conditions, the dietary changes that made a significant difference for women I've worked with, and how constitutional homeopathic treatment addresses the root cause rather than just masking symptoms.

One of my tips involves a simple dietary switch that many women don't know about but can dramatically reduce symptoms. Another is about trusting yourself when healthcare professionals aren't listening.

This episode is packed with practical information you can use today. If you've been suffering for years or struggling to get answers from your GP, listen to this.

Period Myths Busted: Natural Relief for Painful Periods and PMT

Season 3 · Episode 1

mardi 17 février 2026 • Duration 15:00

Did you know most of what we've been told about periods is actually wrong? Today I'm busting 5 massive period myths that keep women suffering unnecessarily - and trust me, once you hear the truth, you'll wonder why no one told you this sooner.

As mum to a 12-year-old daughter navigating puberty, I've been thinking about periods a lot lately. The problem? So much of what we're taught is simply not true, and these myths leave us accepting pain, heavy bleeding, and awful PMT as "just part of being a woman."

Spoiler alert: it doesn't have to be this way.

In this episode, I'm busting myths about:

Why your cycle doesn't need to be exactly 28 days
When you actually ovulate (it's probably not when you think!)
Whether period pain and PMT are really "normal"
How many contraceptive options you actually have (way more than you realise!)
What the first signs of puberty really are

I'm also revealing what a truly healthy cycle looks like, my top homeopathic remedies for period pain and PMT, and practical steps you can take today to support your hormones naturally.

One of the myths I'm busting is THE BIG ONE that keeps women suffering for years. Hunter-gatherer women didn't have the symptoms we accept as normal today - so what's changed? And more importantly, what can you do about it?

If you're tired of suffering every month, or if you want to support your daughter through puberty naturally, this episode is packed with information that will genuinely change how you think about your cycle.
