Welcome to the wonderful world of Herbal energy remedies and the extraordinary healing power they can bring to every practitioner and patient.
As one of the largest professional societies in the field of natural health care, the Homeobotanical Institute attracts skilled therapists from all walks of medicine. Association with these wonderful people is a welcome reinforcement and stimulation for any health care professional.
The Homeobotanical Institute was incorporated in 1989 to research and develop the uniquely New Zealand discovery of Herbal Energy — the extraordinary surge of healing power that is released from herbs when prepared in a special manner. |
|
The Institute has grown over the years and developed it’s own distinctive structure as it grew to accommodate the many and varied healing disciplines. Today there are around two thousand Homeobotanical Practitioners scattered around the world, with associated Chapters in Australia, America, Malaysia and the United Kingdom.
Because Homeobotanical Therapy began here in New Zealand, all the research material and associated literature has been published within the Institute’s Journal. For several years a professional educational programme has been developing, leading to the adoption of Homeobotanical standards by the New Zealand Qualifications Authority. It is now possible to gain nationally recognised diplomas, certificates and even higher qualifications in conjunction with the Institute’s two NZQA Accredited Colleges.
Homeobotanical Therapy has always been a CORE THERAPY, which means that it is used by all manner of practitioners as the basis of their clinical management. The remedies initiate the entire healing process and may be used to boost the clinical results of body therapies, psychological techniques, traditional and orthodox practises as well as the more familiar natural health modalities.
Membership of the Institute is open to all natural health practitioners who wish to increase their capacity to help every patient.

MEMBERSHIP OF THE HOMEOBOTANICAL INSTITUTE
Combine the reliability of herbs with the potency of homoeopathy and mix with love. You now have a Homeobotanical remedy — a cost-effective, palatable potion which is safe for the whole family — including the pets.
In practice, Homeobotanicals have become the basis of all healing activity both here in New Zealand and increasingly all around the world. Reinforcing the effectiveness of other therapies, or used on their own, Homeobotanicals strengthen, purify and restore health. This is Mix and Match medicine which the practitioner personally prepares with their own hands.
The discovery that became known as Herbal Energy was made in 1983 when single herbs were prepared in the homoeopathic manner. Dr. Brian Murray shared this discovery and the number of practitioners using the new system grew until in 1989, the current Homeobotanical Institute was incorporated.
In 1994 the Institute formed a Steering Committee which saw the establishment of the New Zealand Charter of Health Practitioners Inc. Recognising the wide range of therapies used by the many Homeobotanical therapists, two levels of professional standards were adopted for the Chartering of the Institute’s Members.
Herbal Energy Practitioners
These Members have passed the Certificate of Homeobotanical Therapy, or hold the equivalent Certificate in Herbal Energy Therapy from a recognised teaching institution. They may hold other qualifications in Natural Therapies and are eligible for Chartering under the Natural Medicines Presidential Board as Herbal Energy Therapists. Such Chartering is not compulsory, but within the Homeobotanical Institute Inc., they are required to submit three typical case histories each year and provide proof of continuing relevant education equivalent to ten hours of training.
The definition of Herbal Energy Therapy adopted by the Charter is: Combining the reliability of herbs with the potency of homoeopathy, Herbal Energy Therapy is gentle, effective health care for the whole family — including the pets. Helping animals of all kinds is now an important part of Homeobotanical Therapy. A Herbal Energy Therapist is the Clinical Specialist of natural therapy and may also use physical, emotional or vibrational remedial techniques. With professional care and guidance focused on individual needs, Herbal Energy Therapy brings personal health, happiness and general well-being.
Dynamic Phytotherapy is a Practitioner-Only discipline of natural health care that incorporates Homeobotanical preparations enhanced by potentisation. Professional standards for the use of Homeobotanical preparations have risen continuously over the years.
Dynamic Phytotherapy Practitioners
These Members have over three thousand hours of training in Natural Therapies and hold a recognised Diploma or Degree in professional health care. They are encouraged to study the Certificate of Homeobotanical Therapy, or may hold the equivalent Certificate in Herbal Energy Therapy from a recognised teaching institution, but this is not a compulsory requirement. They must hold other qualifications in Natural Therapies equivalent to the standards set for Chartering under the Natural Medicines Presidential Board. Such Chartering is not compulsory, but within the Homeobotanical Institute Inc., they are required to submit three typical case histories each year and proof of continuing relevant education equivalent to ten hours of training.
The definition of Dynamic Phytotherapy adopted by the Charter is:
From phytos (herbal) and dynamos (power), a phytodynamic therapist is the General Practitioner of Natural Medicine. A fully qualified Homeobotanical Therapist, your practitioner also has comprehensive professional training in Naturopathy, Clinical Nutrition, Classical Homoeopathy or Medicinal Herbs. In chronic and degenerative illness, the action of Dynamic Phytotherapy is to strengthen, purify and restore. Combined with lifestyle support, this healing process brings fresh hope and relief of suffering.
Professional standards for the use of Homeobotanical preparations have risen continuously over the years. Practitioners may now train with several N.Z. Qualifications Authority colleges to attain a National Certificate in Homeobotanical Therapeutics — which is the basis of Chartering or Accreditation as a Dynamic Phytotherapist.
.
Overseas, the academic standards of Dynamic Phytotherapy are accepted by many professional associations and are the basis of advanced tertiary studies in natural health care.

HOMEOBOTANICAL THERAPY
The distinctive nature of this relatively new therapy arose through the holistic approach adopted by all practitioners who use these remedies in their clinic. Homeobotanical therapy has emerged as a "core therapy" or basic approach suitable for every animal that presents for assistance.
Through modern analytical techniques, the complex nature of botanical species is being discovered. Green plants are unique in that they can synthesise complex carbohydrates from carbon dioxide in the air through the energy of sunlight. All animal life depends upon this unique biochemical reaction. Protein, fats and oils, enzymes and a variety of other complex molecules are synthesised by plant cells. The biologically active constituents of plants include such materials as alkaloids, glycosides, saponins, mucilages, gums, tannins etc. These, together with other components, become the starting point in animals of a whole cascade of chemical reactions, which sustain life processes.
Through the process of dynamic assimilation (demonstrated by Dr Scheussler and others), it is possible to enhance the digestive processes with potentised nutrients when illness or malfunction of an organ or body process prevents or inhibits this. The process of potentisation is achieved either by grinding mineral or insoluble materials with lactose or by succussing liquid solutions of the desired nutrients. This remarkable process of potentising or dynamising was discovered by the founder of modern homeopathy, Dr Samuel Hahnemann.
Herbal extracts and tinctures are liquid preparations that contain all the soluble active ingredients contained in the original plant. A range of herbal extracts was chosen for their trophorestorative qualities to produce a unique range of food supplements. From known properties of organ affinities, it is possible to select a range of botanical materials that provide selective nutrition for the major organs and systems in the body. When these blends of botanical extracts are potentised by the homoeopathic process, a range of nutritional supplements is produced which are known as 'Homoeobotanicals'.
Homeobotanical remedies may be used in the following ways:
A) ORGAN DRAINAGE
Used at the commencement of a therapy to clean out accumulated toxins and to allow the healing process to begin. For example: an animal has been exposed to spray poisoning, By their very nature, sprays will prevent any complete healing to take place REGARDLESS of the therapy until there has been a de-toxification process. This then allows for a patient's positive response to the constitutional or therapeutic remedies.
B) DURING TREATMENT
Used at subsequent consultations to 'fine tune' the patient's progress. For example: our animal has received a de tox and is now on a liver cleanse. It may be an idea to add a blood cleaner to this or a glandular remedy to assist the action of the liver cleanse.
C) ON-GOING MAINTENANCE
To ensure the healing process reaches its maximum potential. This may be achieved by incorporating many different ways of modifying the energy balanc.e For example: the use of flower, gem or crystal essences, or EAV generated homoeocomplexes, and adding these to the Hb remedies to generate a physical, nutritional, dynamic, etheric and auric healing process to take place — all in a single bottle.
The trophic (or nutritional) qualities of homeobotanical remedies arise through the complex chemistry of the components. The physical nature of the remedies is evident in their appearance and the use of significant quantities of nutrients and other useful intermediates naturally occurring in plants. However it is the dynamic aspect of Hb remedies that seem to stimulate selective assimilation of the nutrients. Potentised trace minerals, vitamins, etc present in the botanical extracts appear to enhance assimilation of the corresponding nutrients during digestion. This process was originally demonstrated by Dr Scheussler through his biochemic cell salts, whereby potentised minerals in minute concentrations were seen to influence the metabolic rates of calcium, magnesium, phosphorus etc at a cellular level.
Special mention is made of the potentised enzymes present in the Hb formulations, since these are believed to improve the action of natural enzymes in the body.
The physical and medical action of botanical preparations is well covered in the standard herbal literature. However the nature of homoeopathic action which arises through the dynamic or higher energy produced by the potentising process, is not well documented.
Homeobotanical remedies are classical blends of herbal extracts and tinctures which have been prepared to cover all the common problems met with in a natural health clinic. These basic or primary remedies can be blended in any combination or proportion to match the nutritional needs of the animal.
Each of these food supplements are formulated from a balance of:
a) Trophorestorative herbs: selected to nutritionally support each organ or system,
and
b) Depurative herbs: to drain away toxins and keep the nutritional pathways open.
The general action of the major homeopathically potentised remedies is amphoteric — (that the remedies work by restoring balance) and are capable of both stimulating or sedating processes in the body at a cellular level; (this means enhancing both assimilation and depuration).
At this cellular level, life processes are dependent upon a steady supply of nutrients, hormones and oxygen. To achieve ideal conditions, an efficient digestive tract and a vigorous circulatory system is required. Once cellular nutrition has been satisfied, elimination of toxic wastes, or metabolites, must follow. This depurative process is known as drainage and involves all the eliminative organs.
At a cellular level nutrition consists of two interdependent factors:
a) Assimilation — the process of conveying to the cell all the essential nutrients in a form able to be absorbed and used by that cell.
b) Depuration (Drainage) removing from each cell the waste products so that the process of assimilation is not impeded.
Dynamic Assimilation:
Using potentised herbs as food supplements.
Dr Scheussler of Germany discovered a system of restoring mineral balance in the body by a process he called biochemistry. Basically, he used the minerals naturally occurring in the body as his sole source of supplements; to render the minerals easily assimilated he prepared them by a process known as 'potentisation' which had earlier been developed by Dr Hahnemann Originally twelve minerals were adopted; modern biochemistry uses over forty naturally occurring minerals and each is potentised before use.
Dynamic Depuration (Drainage):
For these nutritional effects to be taking place, a counterbalancing drainage mechanism must also be operating in and around the cell. It is possible that potentised metabolites (or waste products) might also influence the process of depuration.
For example:
In low doses arsenic may be safely administered and act as a stimulant to the system.
In the following lab experiment small physical (not homoeopathic) doses of arsenious oxide were fed to rats on a continuing basis. Arsenic is a poison which gradually builds up in the system, so after a suitable period, the rats eventually had an accumulation in excess of a lethal dose of the poison. Because of the gradual intake, their bodies adjusted to the presence of the arsenic without any adverse effects. The rats were then taken off the arsenious oxide supplement and fed normal food for another month. At the end of this period, there was no arsenic present in the rat droppings or urine and the general health of the animals remained well.
Then a homeopathically potentised preparation of arsenic was given in the form commonly known as Arsenicum album. (Remember there is no trace of the arsenic molecule in this remedy). Immediately the stools of the rats were filled with arsenic. This eliminative process continued for several days until eventually, no further poison was detectable.
What this experiment demonstrated is that a mineral in potency triggered off the elimination of that same substance stored in the test animals' bodies. This application is the same as spray poisoning and is the reason why there is never complete wellness until the de-tox has been carried out.
The effectiveness of any healing program depends upon establishing and maintaining the nutritional and depurative factors at a cellular level.
A French Physician, Dr Emile Maury, developed a concept of what he called "Detoxication". In his book "Drainage in Homoeopathy" he developed Hahnemann's directive to "First Remove The Cause". He noticed that modern case takings were often blurred and indefinite, probably due to the environmental pollution that affects all living things. He found that by opening up the major drainage organs of the body (liver, bowels, kidneys, lungs, skin etc), using very low potency remedies, his patients’ health improved. A patient so cleansed now presented with a clear symptom picture which simplified prescribing. More often than not, the patient required no further medical help once the eliminative organs were working properly. Symptoms are our most accurate guide to the processes occurring within each individual as they approach that positive balance of energy and well being known as health.
Homoeostasis is the process by which all living organisms maintain an internal equilibrium at all levels of bodily activity. At all times, nutritional programs should be designed to reinforce natural homoeostasis rather than trying to impose a chemical or physical solution on the body.
While nutritional and drainage concepts have been considered, several other subtle qualities are imparted to the botanical tinctures by homoeopathic potentising. Through the synergy of herbal combinations and Hahnemannian potentising, a new herbal energy is released — the basis of Homeobotanical Therapy.
Homoeopathy + Herbalism = Homeobotanicals.
A independent observer could be excused for thinking that the herbalist and the homoeopath were speaking about two different medicinal plants when discussing their therapies applied to one particular herb eg. fresh nettle tincture may be combined with other simples to produce a blend known as a complex (from a herbalist's point of view). To the Homoeopath it is a single remedy to be used exclusively on its own according to Hahnemann's Law of Similars. Lycodpodium spores were regarded as inert and used as fillers in pill manufacture, yet to the Homoeopath, when potentised, Lycopodium becomes one of the most versatile remedies in their repertory, being indicated for psoriasis, chronic rheumatic and catarrhal states as well as sexual and general systemic atony. Apart from a few similarities, it would seem that the two disciplines of Homoeopathy and Herbalism had little in common. Any plant tincture being used is obviously the same identical preparation being used by both groups. The potential for that herb to realise its full therapeutic potential is clearly being limited by these two divergent schools of thought.
A freshly expressed extract of an herb preserved with an appropriate proportion of pure alcohol is the starting point of all therapeutic activity. The herbalist knows this preparation as a Fresh Extract; the homoeopath calls the same preparation a Mother Tincture. The two practitioners use this preparation in an entirely different way from each other and each school of thought achieves different results in their clinical applications. Should a way be found to use both philosophies then the entire healing potential of the herb could be realised. Such an approach has been adopted in the new discipline of Homoeobotanical Therapy.
In herbal medicine the quantity of the dose is very important and herbal therapeutic effects cease at zero percent of active ingredient. In homoeopathy the lower the concentration or, as they say, the higher the potency, the more profound is the therapeutic response in the patient. This can be demonstrated but is at total variance with the herbal approach. So as the concentrations get lower, the herbal effects diminish and cease. In potentiated remedies, as the concentrations diminish, the biological response increases.
Between the concentration of 1:10 to 1:100 on the herbal scale and 1X and 2X on the homoeopathic scale, the preparation of an herb is identical. Only the philosophy of application is different.
Homoeobotanical therapy adopted one strength precisely in the middle of this range and therapeutic indications are taken from both herbal and homoeopathic literature. There is no arbitrary distinction between the different philosophies because at that concentration there is sufficient physical herbal material present to achieve some pharmaceutical response and, when potentised, there is sufficient dynamic energy present to utilize the homoeopathic effects in the patient.
It is evident that by focusing a range of herbal tinctures on a particular organ or system in the body a homoeopathic response is being triggered by Hb preparations — the best of both worlds.
Intergration:
Herbalists traditionally blend various botanical extracts to encourage synergistic response and to avoid any undesirable effects. A remedy such as Homoeobotanical "K" (Kidney tonic) is formulated in the classical herbal method by selecting botanicals proven to have a special affinity with the renal system. In its concentrated state this preparation can be considered a myriad of components focused on restoring kidney function. However, once the formula is diluted and potentised, it becomes a single or simple integrated remedy. The original ingredients cease to have separate identity and Hb K becomes a single distinctive remedy like any other homoeopathic preparation. Potentiated remedies prepared according to the Homoeobotanical method are thus single integrated preparations. Their healing effects depend upon the energy pattern imprinted onto the remedy and on the capacity of potentised components to selectively influence nutrition and drainage at cellular level.
Remedy Selection:
Symptoms are a direct guide to restorative processes in the body, rather than an accumulation of facts recorded to determine a diagnosis. Many years ago Dr Herring summarised the progression and direction of disease processes in what is known as Herrings Law of Cure. When a correctly applied therapeutic programe was restoring health the direct of cure was:
i) from the head downwards,
ii) from the inside out,
iii) from a greater organ to a lesser organ,
iv) Symptoms disappear in the reverse order of their appearance.
This reasoning is demonstrated when the most recent symptoms become a superficial sign of a deeper disturbance which may have been deteriorating undetected for a long time, thus a minor skin problem will clear up quickly if the deep seated organ (e.g. the liver) causing the diseased state is restored to healthy function. This reappearance of old symptoms is a wonderful response to a remedy because it is clear evidence that the disease process has been reversed.
(Author's note: Many animal owners will say to the Therapist "he hasn't done that, eaten that, ... for ages!" and you know then you are on the 'onion-skin track — refer below).
Homoeobotanical remedies are in general terms purposed to initiate healing in the initial stage of the disease process. Once deterioration has commenced into a deeper disease process more powerful techniques must be introduced to supplement the Hb action.
Onion-skin Therapy: Like layers of an onion, each phase of the disease process can be peeled away to uncover a deeper, more chronic stage. Eventually the original cause will surface and once this is resolved, the healing process is complete. (Do NOT assume that the original cause has a physical aspect — many have an emotional base!) Each 'layer' or phase of the disease can be matched by a combination of Homoeobotanical remedies selected to complement the body's appropriate response. The low potency of Hb gently assists the progress of healing. High potency homoeopathic remedies or concentrated herbals may overly stimulate a patient to produce an aggravation or inimical response. The dilute physical nature of a Hb prescription coupled with its subtle dynamic qualities supports healing in a natural manner. Homoeobotanical remedies are too low in potency and too low in active ingredients to 'impose' a drug reaction on a patient. The healing qualities that characterise Hb’s action are possible only because they trigger off natural bodily healing processes.
When choosing a therapeutic program it is essential to consider the vitality of the patient - are they robust and generally healthy? Response to the remedies will be vigorous and effective. A patient with years of chronic illness must not be over stimulated or 'the treatment will be worse than the disease".
Herbs, Homeopathy v. Homeobotanicals:
Unlike herbal remedies or the polypharmacy preparations of homoeopathic remedies, Hb remedies are of uniform strength and standard. This situation produces a range of remedies which may be blended in any combination, proportion or ratio yet still retain the same level of active ingredients and potency. For the most part herbal remedies are totally physical and have physical pharmaceutical responses. Homoeopathy is totally dynamic and has clinical responses centered entirely on the life force of the patient. Hb remedies have both physical and dynamic properties — they are dysphasic (something that occurs in two stages or phases) or bipolar (having two poles), depending on the application being considered. The physical phase of the remedies is reflected in the colour, taste and odour of the herbal tinctures still evident in the Hb remedy. The dynamic aspects of these remedies are observable in their capacity to stimulate homoeostasis and in their apparent action on mental and emotional states in the patient.
To people trained in classical herbal medicine and homoeopathy the concept of using combinations of herbs and mixing the two applications together seems to be breaking all the rules. To appreciate the true nature of Homeobotanical therapy it is essential to realise that it is NOT herbal medicine. No remedy which uses one thousand times less than the recommended British Herbal Pharmacopoeia dose can be regarded as herbal medicine. No prescription that incorporates in excess of ten components would be accepted by any Homoeopath and yet this therapy is capable of supporting the healing endeavors of every health practitioner.
Blends of Therapeutic Specifics:
The original 30 primary remedy blends were evaluated on the herbal and homoeopathic literature published — mix and match prescribing became the accepted way of prescribing as the Clinical work had refined the range of remedies to where each component in the series was compatible with every other. The infinite range of combinations possible meant that each practitioner could contribute their own personal input into the healing process and by altering the same components by proportions superior results may be achieved due to the synergistic effects.
In herbal medicine there are many instances of one herb magnifying the healing capacity of the other; sometimes the herbs are combined to cancel out unpleasant actions of the original herb, more often it has been found to yield superior results. The thirty primary remedies were evaluated so that synergy was retained when blending in any combination. Some herbs were so powerful in their action they had to be replaced with gentler acting substitutes. This applied particularly to the skin drainage remedy Hb Y. All the silica-rich herbs had to be removed to reduce the tendency of the remedy to encourage drainage through the skin. We know that skin heals faster if drainage is stimulated through the kidneys, liver etc to take the pressure off the skin as an active organ of elimination.
The Remedies:
Each of the primary remedies is discussed in detail and by reading over the notes and studying the components it will be realised that each remedy has a personality of its own, both from a homoeopathic and herbalist perspective. The combination of the herbs therapeutic indications could be construed as its 'Homoeobotanical profile'.
Study this example.
Chionanthus virginicus (Fringe Tree Bark)
Homoeopathic indications
A remedy for many types of headaches, periodical sick, menstrual and bilious. Jaundice, Enlarged spleen, Paroxysmal abdominal pain. Hepatic derangement, diabetes mellitus. (Boericke).
Clinical: Constipation, debility, emaciation with liver disorders, gall stone colic, headache, jaundice, hypertrophy and disease of liver; malaria, neurasthenia; complaints of nursing women (Kent).
Provings: Hypochondria cal, listless, inclined to look on the dark side; very severe headaches, chiefly over the eyes, dull, sore, throbbing of temples. As if viscera tied in a knot. Profuse urine of high SG, bile and sugar in urine. Yellow eyes and skin. Cutting, griping, abdominal pain. Enlarged liver, discomfort right hypochondrium extending to left iliac region. Pancreatic disease and other glandular disorders. Cholycystitis, gallstones, weakness in hypogastrium.
Organ Affinity: Liver, head, pancreas, gallbladder, stomach.
Modalities: Worse (<) jarring and cold, better (>) lying on abdomen. (Boger, Kent)
Botanical Indications
Aperient, febrifuge, tonic, diuretic, hepatic, chologogue, alterative, anti emetic, laxative, hepatic stimulant (Just, BHP).
"This valuable herb may be used safely with all liver problems. Specific for gall bladder inflammation. Gallstones. The action on the liver is used as part of a wider treatment for the whole body" (Hoffman).
"Good for acute dyspepsia, has a beneficial effect on the kidneys and the liver, including cirrhosis, and chronic inflammation (Lust).
Specific Hepatic disease with icterus and glycosuria. Used with Echinacea in Weil's disease and acute parenchymal disease of the liver" (BHP).
In this synopsis of the main recorded indications for Chionanthus as an herb and a homoeopathic remedy, the nature and the action of the preparation in the body is immediately obvious. A combination of these Hb Profiles on each of the components used will materially assist the understanding of the full potential of the therapeutic support possible through Hb therapy.
This therapy was originally intended for people but I have been using Homeobotanicals for animals since their inception and have found animals respond brilliantly to them. Palatable, easy to administer, safe, alcohol-free, and economic. As with homeopathy, this therapy does not use a great deal of raw material in manufacture — a reality that means much when using precious herbal resources.
An Animal Homeobotanical Study Program is currently under review and should be available to graduates early next year through the Naturopathic College of New Zealand. Currently the St Francis College of Natural Animal Health teaches this subject as part of the Diploma Curriculum.

A CASE STUDY USING HOMEOBOTANICALS
Fetz is a 9 year old male Rottweiler who had surgery three years ago for gastric torsion.
Last week I gave him a venison backbone, thinking that he would manage it ok being a relatively soft bone. That night he bought up white mucosy material and, unbeknown to me at the time, small fragments of bone in several places in the long grass. He began to drink huge quantities of water. He was placed on a fluids only diet (broths) yet continued to bring up slimy white mucous. At the end of the second day, with his history of GDV, I became concerned that the bone may not have been the most appropriate food to give him and perhaps there was a blockage.
He was given homeopathic Calc Carb and the Homeobotanical Q. The indications for “Q” is as a lower bowel formula. It is blended to promote daily colonic evacuation and assist in general detoxification and indicated for chronic and obstinate constipation (I had not seen Fetz pass any faeces).
“Q” has several herbs that were useful for Fetz’s condition:
Dandelion Root — to restore normal digestive processes in the intestinal tract, Buckthorn root — a purgative without irritating the system.
Cascara Sagrada — this powerful herb mellows out in the Hb’s yet still performs well for constipation.
Liquorice — a mild laxative and adds palatability — Fetz loved the mix!
Rhubarb — a powerful gut cleanser, again safe in this combination.
Senna — a very powerful herb with a specific influence on the lower bowel.
Fetz, very willingly, took 3 doses, 2 hours apart. He almost immediately stopped the large volumes of water intake, and began to return to his normal happy self at the second dose and by the third dose was racing around the lawn. He passed a normal but firn stool. I continued his liquid diet until the following morning.
I have no doubt the Calc Carb and the “Q” saved him for an enema at the Vet and me a large bill. Thanks “Q”.
