Were you lonely on Valentine's Day?

Were you lonely on Valentine’s Day?

If so, it could be that in spite of your longing, you have your heart locked up. You are simply not letting love into your life. 

Emotional imbalances could be setting up barriers between you and the relationship you wish for.

You could be feeling inferior – as if you weren’t deserving of a sweetheart. Your friends or even a counselor could talk to you all day about your worth. They could give you exercises to build that self-worth. But as long as your energies are imbalanced, you’ll have a hard time accepting that yes, you ARE worth loving. 

Centuary and Gentian can both help you banish those feelings of inferiority. They can help you gain the confidence to speak to that person who interests you. It can give you the courage to perhaps flirt a little and let them know that you’re interested. It can give you the nerve to suggest meeting for coffee – or to say yes when they make the suggestion. 

Perhaps you’re simply unable to give up enough control to allow someone else into your life. You don’t want to "let go of the reins" and allow yourself to give in to your loving feelings. Somewhere along the line, you decided that it was safest to stifle your emotions – saving you from hurt. 

Thus, you present an aloof, detached front – discouraging others from approaching you in either love or friendship. And, since you don’t wish to show any behavior that you yourself view as “weak,” you don’t approach others. The result – you’re left feeling in control, but alone. 

Cherry Plum will help to rebalance your energies and allow you to let go and take the risk.

The reasons for being alone are many, and most of them are rooted in our own emotions. 

So visit FeelBach! and fill out the questionnaire. It will give you insight into yourself and you'll come away with the perfect formula to get your emotional life back on track.

If Your Child Suffers From Bedwetting ...

Parents of children who suffer from bedwetting often say they've tried everything from punishment, to rewards, to medication – all without results.

It's hard on the parents, but that poor child is really suffering, because he or she can't control the problem short of staying away 24 hours a day.

The solution could be simple. He or she may be suffering from a negative Cherry Plum state.

In the negative Cherry Plum state, people feel ready to explode because they keep so many feelings pent up inside. They keep themselves under tight control, not letting on to the outside world the turmoil that resides within. This state can lead to violence when "the dam finally breaks."

In adults, it often leads to depression and an inability to work efficiently. In children, it can lead to bed wetting, because sleep is the only time they're able to release their anxieties. Unfortunately, that release of inner anxieties often results in a wet bed. The problem is compounded because a bed-wetting child will often deny himself or herself many of the joys of childhood – such as camping trips and sleep-overs with friends.

Dr. Bach's Flower Essence, CherryPlum, can free your child to share his worries and anxieties with you - and free both of you from the stress and embarrassment of bed wetting.

Shed the Worry – Don't Let World Events Make You Sick

Every time you turn on the TV, check your email, or read a newspaper there's more bad news.

From the decisions being made in Washington D.C. to events around the world, there's worry over politics. And then there's crime, job losses, the escalating national debt – and it goes on and on. 

But can you change it by worrying? No. 

You can help change a few things at home by voting. You can help ease some suffering in your own community by becoming a volunteer. You can add to prosperity in the world by working, and teaching your children that work is a good and honorable pursuit. 

You can help protect yourself and your loved ones by using good sense. Follow a sensible diet, drive safely, avoid walking on dark streets, etc. 

But you can't change world events or save people from their own destructive behavior. All you can do by living in fear is make yourself sick – and make your loved ones miserable.

So stop taking the world on your shoulders. Let go of the fear of what might happen. 

Several of Dr. Bach's essences are here to help you.  

• Aspen treats pathological worry. 
• Cherry Plum dissipates fear and the sense of losing control. 
• Mimulus treats all types of fears and instills courage. 
• Gorse and SweetChestnut give us confidence to face life with hope and positive feelings. 
• Mustard fights depression. 
• Red Chestnut dissipates fear of illness. 

This is your life. Live it to the fullest by banishing the fears that tarnish your days.

Gentian is another essence that will give you confidence – to believe in yourself and your worth to others.

The reasons for being alone are many, and most of them are rooted in our own emotions. So visit FeelBach! and fill out the questionnaire. It will give you insight into yourself and you'll come away with the perfect formula to get your emotional life back on track.

Does Your Child Suffer from Bed Wetting?

He or she may be suffering from a negative Cherry Plum state - which can be dangerous.

In this state, people feel ready to explode because they keep so many feelings pent up inside. They keep themselves under tight control, not letting on to the outside world the turmoil that resides within.

In adults, it can lead to violence when the "dam finally breaks." It also leads to depression, and an inability to stay focused and on track. In children, it can lead to bed wetting. These children exhibit extreme control when awake, and only during sleep do they "let go." Unfortunately, that release of inner anxieties often results in a wet bed.

Not only is the child embarrassed at home, he may deny himself many of the joys of childhood - such as camping trips and sleep-overs with friends. Bed-wetting is a problem no child wants his friends to know about.

The Bach Flower Essence, Cherry Plum, can free your child to share his worries and anxieties with you - and free both of you from the stress and embarrassment of bed wetting.
