White Chestnut is the required remedy when we cannot unwind and the mind is assaulted by constant spiralling thoughts. These thoughts, ideas and arguments are constantly spinning and repetitive. Dr Bach called this the ‘gramophone record remedy’ as it helps to relieve this mental whirlpool and restore peace of mind.
The Walnut remedy offers us constant protection from outside influences and is the plant of new beginnings. It is helpful with any changes in life and new routines such as marriage, divorce, moving house or a new job. It is of special help to those who are oversensitive to change, certain ideas, atmosphere and influences. The Walnut remedy assists us through these events in life so that we do not lose our way.
This is a very capable person who is certain of their own ability and confident of success. They have a tendency to use their gifts to gain power, dominate others and be aggressively proud. This greed for power and authority can make them tyrannical and dictatorial. The Vine remedy does not affect self-assurance or leadership, but will help these people to become less harsh or severe and more understanding of other people, especially those whom they consider to be weaker.
The Vervain person has fixed principles and ideas that cannot be changed, because they are confident they are correct, never considering an alternative. They feel compelled to convert people to their way of thinking and, consequently, overwork themselves to the point of exhaustion. This remedy helps them to wind down, to rest and relax in order to accept new ideas and viewpoints.
Sweet Chestnut is the remedy for those who are in deepest despair with this hopelessness leading to an inner void. They have reached the limits of their emotional endurance and no longer wish to go on as they feel their situation is beyond help. The Sweet Chestnut remedy helps to raise the curtain of despair, enabling them to see the larger picture and restores faith in their self.
This is the remedy for shock in any form and is indicated whenever there is trauma to the system - both mental and physical - for example from an accident, a bereavement or any emotionally disturbing news which causes great distress. Star of Bethlehem helps to stabilize the mind and body - especially where sudden emotional shock has caused a convulsion of the system - and also assists in acceptance of the inevitable.
This remedy is for indecision and uncertainty and is invaluable for people who cannot choose between one thing and another. Often any decisions made will later be reversed and, as they are unable to discuss their difficulties with others, they struggle alone. Scleranthus helps these people to see the larger picture required to make informed decisions.
Rock Water people are very strict with themselves and their lives, often denying the joys and pleasures of life because they consider it might interfere with their work. They are hard on themselves and expect perfection in all they do. This remedy helps them to be less focused and more flexible and to consider all of their needs.
This is the remedy for extreme fear, terror and panic, usually with trembling, perspiration and, in some cases, sudden paralysis or unconsciousness. Rock Rose is the appropriate remedy when terror creates panic or when one is literally paralyzed by fear.
The Red Chestnut person’s worries and anxieties are for others. Their thoughts are solely occupied with the health and well being of other members of their family, friends or acquaintances – often to the extent they have ceased to worry about themselves. Red Chestnut helps with the realization that one can only be responsible for one’s self and this clarity helps to overcome their fears and to trust in the process of life.
