FEELING OVERWHELMED & DESPONDENT
Elm Bach Flower Remedy is for those who feel overwhelmed by their workload. Usually competent and capable, they momentarily lose confidence and become despondent. Elm types make good managers and are often in positions of responsibility, concerned with the welfare of others, e.g. doctors, teachers, therapists, heads of industry.
Elm is indicated when these capable people suddenly feel overwhelmed by their responsibilities and feel unable to deal with them or keep up with events; this is often brought about by taking on too much work without taking care of themselves. As a result they feel depressed and exhausted, with a temporary loss of self-esteem. Even a momentary doubt of their own abilities causes them to feel weak and debilitated.
The positive potential is restoration of one's normal capable personality, and a return to efficiency and self-assurance. Problems are seen in perspective and the person takes on only as much as he or she can cope with, taking time to look after his or her own needs.
Directions
Once the Bach Flower Remedy or combination of remedies have been chosen, take two drops in a cup of water and sip at intervals, or two drops of each chosen remedy in 30ml bottle of mineral water and from this take four drops four times a day until relief is obtained. It's quite safe to take these as often as needed. Hold the dose in the mouth for a few moments before swallowing.
Drops can be added to a baby's bottle or child's fruit juice.
Caution
The Remedies have no adverse effects. However, like other forms of natural medicine, they may allow suppressed symptoms to surface. These could include such things as rashes while the body is being cleared of toxins, or an awareness of emotions which have been denied expression. These are an important part of the healing process and are only temporary.
Note:
The Bach Flower Remedies can be taken alongside medication, including homoeopathic remedies, without any interference at all.
Ingredients
240 parts Brandy to one part infusion of flowers in water. Alcohol 40% by volume.
How long Will they Keep?
