Misha Norland

Misha Norland (born 13 June 1943) is the founder and current course leader of the School of Homeopathy, the UK’s longest running homeopathy school. He is the son of the expressionist painter Ernst Neuschul (1895-1968).
Childhood and education
Misha Norland’s family emigrated from Europe to the United Kingdom in 1939 fleeing Nazi persecution. In 1946 the family move to the Hampstead borough of London. An important part of his education took place during summer holidays spent in Paris where he met Gregory Corso and various beat poets and began a lifelong passion for writing poetry.
Career
He spent a year as a laboratory assistant with the MRC in Hammersmith and then a year in Israel, ending up as an English-speaking newscaster. Upon his return he took up a career in filmmaking. After a spell in Hollywood he returned to London, where he came into contact with new age mystics, poets, songwriters, musicians and healers.
By 1975 he had a successful homeopathic practice in North London. In 1978 he helped found the Society of Homeopaths.
Misha Norland started to formally teach homeopathy in 1979 at the recently established London College of Homeopathy. Prior to this he had been running informal study groups from his home in north London. In 1981 he and his family moved to Devon, founding the School of Homeopathy at this time. Three years later the School took up residence at Yondercott House in Devon, where it remained until relocating to Hawkwood College in Gloucestershire, in 2008.
He developed a diploma level homeopathy course by correspondence which is in use in several other countries, and he helped to set up affiliated organizations in Athens, New York and Tokyo.
Provings of Homeopathic medicines
Homeopathic practice relies upon detailed evidence of medical efficacy (known in homeopathy as ). Misha Norland began organizing these trials at the School in 1988. Since the early 1990’s these have been a regular feature of curriculum. This research generates a wealth of new information that is regularly made available to the profession.
Mappa Mundi
Misha Norland has developed the use of the Mappa Mundi in homeopathy and has written extensively on this. This system of homeopathic thinking has the intention of providing a framework for homeopathic diagnoses and the mapping of remedy patterns. Mappa Mundi synthesises the classical teachings of the temperaments with the traditional elements as well as other correspondences.
