Dr. Bach's Essences Can Smooth Life's Bumpy Road

All of us, at some time or another, encounter energy blocks that make life less than joyful. 

It could be indecision, it could be changes we don't particularly like, it could be an event that's left us

worried about the future.

It could be our relationships that are off-kilter. Maybe we're being impatient or too demanding. Maybe we're feeling used, ignored, or unloved by those we care for.

Maybe we're not happy with our own behavior. We're down on ourselves for not having the energy to tackle all we should do, or we're ashamed of procrastination. Maybe we've just gotten into a funk and don't want to do a darned thing!

Whatever the reason, any time we're not going about our days happy within our own skins, it's time to do something about it.

It doesn't matter if the problem is chronic or if it comes and goes. It still interferes with living and loving life.

So if you're feeling less than joyful all the time or if you just hit weeks when life throws you off balance, look to Dr. Bach's essences to pull you out of it.

Life is too precious to waste your days feeling less than your best, so let Dr. Bach's essences help.

When You're Too Tired to Care, Look to Olive

Do you ever get days or weeks when you're just too tired to want to do anything?

It might feel like physical fatigue (when you haven't done anything physical) or mental fatigue, but it certainly is debilitating. Olive is the flower essence to get you out of the funk and back on track.

If you're a natural Olive personality, this state is especially distressing. You're used to being up-beat, energetic, in-charge, and ready to take on everything life offers. And now, you just don't care to do anything. Some days you simply want to sit, or take a nap. You aren't even interested in reading a book or watching television.

Ignoring the symptoms of the negative Olive state can actually lead to physical illness, so it's best to nip it in the bud with the Olive flower essence. This blocked energy flow can cause reduced kidney function, reduced oxygen flow, and internal toxicity. In other words, it's nothing to ignore.

Olive is often used to help people who are recovering from a long illness - even alcoholism.

So if you've lost your normal energetic personality, get the Olive essence from FeelBach! and feel better quickly.

If Guilt Has "Got You" Let it Go - with Pine

Last week we talked about White Chestnut, and how it can help you stop your mind from going over and over and over events that have happened - and worries about events that could happen.

If guilt is the reason why your thoughts won't let go, add Pine to your formula.

Everyone has made mistakes, but some of us can't seem to let go of them and move on. Sometimes it's our own mistakes that hang on - sometimes it's an inability to forgive and forget someone else's mistakes.

People who suffer from a chronic negative Pine state even feel guilty for mistakes other people make - and for events that aren't actually mistakes at all. They just feel guilty from morning to night - often for no good reason.

If you know someone in this state, you've probably noticed that they say "I'm sorry dozens of times each day."

Hanging on to all that guilt is detrimental to health and happiness - both for the sufferer and for the people who care about him or her. 

So if you're the one suffering, put a stop to it. Get the essence Pine from FeelBach! and feel good soon.

Stop the Swirling Thoughts With Dr. Bach's White Chestnut

All who study the Law of Attraction know that in order to make things better in your life, you have to turn your thoughts to what you want and stop thinking about what you don't want.

You have to stop replaying past mistakes, hurts, and disappointments. You have to stop worrying

about things that already happened, and things that could happen, but might never happen. 

But, when a person is in a negative White Chestnut state, stopping those thoughts can be almost impossible.

This could be a chronic condition, in which case it could be causing chronic frontal headaches.

Or, it can merely wreck a few days out of your life now and then. It could be the result of an encounter when you wish you'd said something or done something differently.

It could happen if you (or your child) have been unfairly accused. 

Whether chronic or temporary, it's better to get out of the negative state as quickly as possible. 

If you're in this state, treatment with White Chestnut can bring your energies back into alignment and allow you to begin using the Law of Attraction for your benefit instead of your detriment.

White Chestnut will allow you to sleep better and to function better in the daytime. It helps to settle your thinking and allows you to resolve your issues rather than wasting time and energy worrying about them.
