If your children are headed for summer camp
for the first time, they may be happy, excited, and eager to go, but… also
afraid. Likewise, if they’ve gone before but experienced conflict with another
camper or a counselor, they may not be sure they want to go at all.
And… once there, even the most eager
camper may experience homesickness.
To counteract fear and let them fully enjoy their new experiences, start them on Dr. Bach’s Mimulus flower essence several days before their departure, and send it with them to use while they're away. It will help to balance their energies and let them enjoy themselves.
This is also a good remedy to use when children are forced to attend a new school due to the family's relocation, or when they go off to boarding school or college. Mimulus will help your child overcome fear and anxiety and face new experiences with confidence.
If you expect your child to be homesick,
use Honeysuckle. Along with effectively counteracting homesickness, treatment
with this flower essence results
in an ability to learn from the past, integrate its lessons into the present
for use in the present and future, and to cherish good memories while releasing
the negative feelings of poor ones.
If your child is insecure or worried
that they might not be as athletic as the other campers, add Centaury, or fill
out the Feel Bach! questionnaire
and let our experts create a blend made especially for him or her.
