I feel comforted and soothed

Mental Health Mantra 55/365

Tomorrow I start  Level 1 in Bach Flower Remedies - I have learnt so much about these remedies since the 90s when I was first introduced to them and began taking rescue remedy and others, whilst navigating and healing from M.E / Myalgic Encephalomyelitis. 

As if by magic, this course dropped into my inbox, it is almost like I have magically drawn it in - 25 flowers later.

For those who may not have heard of Bach Flower Remedies, they're named after Dr Edward Bach who discovered 28 remedies, each for a specific emotional and mental state plus a combination one of 5 remedies, which is designed for difficult and demanding situations, this he called Rescue Remedy. 

37 of the 38 are based on single wild flowers and tree blossoms - the exception is Rock Water, which is made of the water from a natural spring with healing properties. 

I'll talk more about it but for now, this flower mantra is the Star of Bethlehem.  As a remedy it can be used for after effects of shock, it can also be used for people who are numbed and withdrawn with a sense of loss or grief.  Dr Bach described this remedy as 'the comforter and soother of pains and sorrows.' 

This helped me today with the mental health mantra - I feel comforted and soothed.

It is like giving yourself a big hug - taking this remedy and repeating this mantra to yourself or writing it out 25 times.

Keep shining starseeds.
