Over-Sensitive to Impressions? 4 Bach Flowers at Your Disposal

 Hashem created a beautiful arsenal of tools in the forms of Bach flowers, which you can order the bottles from stores around the country or online. These essences help you find emotional (and sometimes physical) balance, and they act, in general, very quickly. Here I'd like to talk about Bach's group of flowers called Over sensitivity to Influences and Ideas. Dr. Bach discovered these flower essences and divided their effects into different groups. See at the bottom of the page for other examples. 



Over-sensitivity to influences and ideas.

All flowers in this group are helping those suffering from vulnerability to disturbances from the outside. 

🥀Agrimony: Helps you to communicate your real feelings and worries. You are the cheerful, humorous type that gets distressed by arguments or quarrels. You often hide your feelings behind humor and you use alcohol or drugs in excess to stimulate yourself.

🥀Centaury: Helps when you find it hard to say no, and therefore easily get imposed on. You often find yourself serving others, neglecting your own particulate mission in life.

🥀Walnut: Helps you break free from old ties and at times of major life changes. It helps you move forward and make necessary changes in order to be happy. Walnut gives consistency and protection from outside influences.

🥀Holly: Helps when you suffer from angry thoughts such as jealousy, envy, revenge, and/or suspicion.

Let's look at each one in more details:

Agrimony


Agrimony has been used as an herbal remedy for liver troubles. Craving for stimulants is a frequent indication. Restlessness in mind and body. Anxiety and worries. Internal disquiet, nervousness and hurried. Agrimony will greatly ease pain in a patient who is smiling despite pain and internal torture. Suppression, denial of emotions and over-compliance. 


MIND


Desire to not let others down and burden them with their personal problems. Intend to spread cheer and uplift others. Tendency not to express strong emotions which could bring disharmony or strife to oneself or others. Resentment and antagonism nonetheless build up within and may find release unexpectedly in spiteful remarks or in masked, agressive behavior.  


Centaury

Lack of stamina may be apparent, people may not seem fully invigorated or empowered. Weakness in the mind, emotions and body. The psychosomatic diseases of hypertension, hyperthyroidism, insulin dependent diabetes, soft tissue rheumatism and rheumatoid arthritis. 

In a mental illness, when excessive submissiveness and attempts to please others are part of the underlying dynamic. Dependent personality disorder. Over-compliance and disregard for one’s own needs. One gives others priority over oneself, seeing their needs first and de-emphasizing one’s own. 


MIND


The mind is easily impressed with the needs and demands of others, to the point of wishing to do good and be of service. The balance of perception is titled in favor of others. Feelings of guilt and loyalty may further bind and narrow one’s way.

Life may seem more drudgery than adventure. A mistake of the service-oriented person is to overlook growing personal weakness and exhaustion. As needs of others seem predominant, one’s own needs assume less importance and one’s health and strength may be undermined slowly. Serving others may be a refuge, a way to build self-esteem and find approval by others. 

Sadness due to unfulfilled potential or unanswered needs. Disappointment, resentment or frustration in the helpful person due to insensitivity and neglect. Lacks the courage to make their needs known, or their ethical principles may prevent them from resentful impulses. Can’t assert their needs to others. 




Walnut

Walnut gives protection from heightened impressionability and sensitivity. Lack of physical stability. Heightened impressionability, may create over-ambitiousness, envy and frustration. Gastric and duodenal ulcers. Allergies. 

MIND


Overly influenced by impressions. Emotional disturbances from impressions. Heightened sensitivity. Delusions when one feels obsessed or influenced by forces beyond one’s control. 


Holly

The Holly state can be a state of exhaustion, frazzled nerves and over stimulation by environmental impact. 
Urge to fight oneself free of excessive noise and turmoil. Internal suffering and agony, stifled feeling. 
Nervousness, physical irritability. Tension headaches or migraines after annoying experiences. Suppressed anger. Psychosomatic illness. Antisocial personality disorders. Disorders with agressive or jealous features. 
Prone to outbursts of anger, rage or violence which can also lead to injuries for oneself and others. Impulse control, when rage in not bridled. 
Persecutory or paranoid delusions, heightened accusation and antagonism against the imagined threat of others. 

MIND


Over sensitivity to minor occurrences. Irritable, easily annoyed. Prone to vexation. Strong emotions. Agitated, agressive state. Overly suspicious, envious, jealous. Revengeful, angry, wounded pride. Perceives disturbances or other people as threats to peace and well-being. Urge to be free of the annoyance, even to the point of violence.

Diatomaceous Earth - DE - Friend or Foe?

 There's a very popular topic around here should you need a subject of conversation - that's worms, yes, of the intestinal kind (not the intellectual kind. I used to be a book worm, I guess I still am in a way).  Worms? Because they infect so many people so fast, it's important to find an alternative to the current medical solution which is basically poison to the body. For months I prayed to find one so we could get rid of these parasites, visiting my children's rectum every night (sorry for the visual).  I tried a soup recipe with all the types of food supposed to get rid of worms. Even homeopathy doesn't kill the parasites. Vermox, the medical option, works sometimes and sometimes not, but who knows what damage it does while it travels the body.  One day, I come across this post on hpathy.com, one of my favorite homeopathy reference website: "Stumbled upon this post, but I want to let anyone know who feels hopeless about parasites, especially worms.

Pellet of Mussar: The Other Song

 I think the best part of being a homeopath is to hear people's "other song". Let me explain. As I told my patients and students numerous time, part of us is Divine (we're hoping 100% of the time we're connected to that part!) and part of us, the Other Song, is less. Some people get easily angry, others are more messy, some are often sad, everybody has their "other song". When we look for a remedy (doesn't matter what the official diagnosis is), we want to address the other part of us, the unbalanced part, the one that prevents us from doing our Avodat Hashem.  Hahnemann said (the founder of homeopathy)  that a healthy state is when the "reasoning spirit who inhabits the organism can freely use this healthy instrument to reach the lofty goal of human existence" (from his book The Organon of Medicine ). We're born with this "less divine" part of us, and the job of the homeopath is to hear, identify and treat the other song so t...

Working With Other Modes of Healing

 Homeopathy is compatible with all the other modes of healing out there and I have learned not to be dogmatically for, or against, any therapy (even pharmaceuticals).  In our culture, we often need to learn to do less, and in homeopathy, less is more. Once you get in touch with your own inner healer you can customize your healing approach and cut out unnecessary interventions. Excessive biomedical and pharmaceutical treatments will gradually drain the vital force and slow down the homeopathic, vitalistic, source of healing.  A lot of people treated with a mainstream medical approach have been on various types of pharmaceuticals and it's possible that you or your child is currently taking antibiotics, steroids, stimulants, etc.  While some homeopaths will say that remedies will not work while a child is taking pharmaceuticals, if a patient is dedicated to weaning himself or his child off of them under the guidance of a healthcare professional, I will still begin homeo...
