Flower Essences For Stress

Stress is a common emotion in today’s society. With the world becoming faster and technology entering our consciousness much of the time, the human mind becomes overwhelmed and stressed.

Flower essences can help with stress in several ways, are simple to take and can slowly replace other negative behaviors that we turn to when we are stressed. The gentle, subtle action of flower essences works on our inner emotions. in stressful times I find the essence blends chosen to help with stress act quickly in comparison to other essence blends or flower remedies. The actions work on toning down our fight or flight feelings and responses and allows the mind and body to slow down and breathe.

There have been many times that I selected flowers to overcome strong stressful emotions to alleviate a situation as soon as possible and allow the mind and body reprieve over 24 hours, before moving to a selection that will help in the longer term.

The popular blends historically used to treat stressful or traumatic situations are Bach’s Rescue Remedy, and Ian White’s Emergency Essence. I find Bach’s Rescue Remedy more powerful with a clearer strength. Both are readily available online, and often in stores and chemists nearby.

De-Stress Blend -this is a selection of my favourite essences that I have used many times to help us through overwhelming times. I chose essences that i have used many times to help overcome feelings of anxiety, overwhelm and stress bought on by a fast paced life or an unexpected event in our lives.

*Note that if you are feeling overwhelmed and unable to cope, it is very important to seek help from your doctor or other qualified health professionals. Flower essences are a complimentary treatment and not a replacement for professional help and treatment.
