Excerpt from Australian Natural Health' magazine, 2007
Edward Bach the Physician loved the quiet countryside and the beauty of the trees and plants. He gave us plants for healing and some of the remedies are below:
'Honeysuckle - This flower can help those that have a hard time moving forward with their lives as they are stuck in the past. They dwell upon memories and past experiences and can often become detached from reality. This is often seen in older people who may have lost loved ones and feel the need to cling to their memory, Honeysuckle can help with the ability to accept change and not to forget the past but to learn from it.
Scleranthus - Decisions, decisions! We ask ourselves questions like "What will I wear today? Which wine should I buy? Which, red or white wine?" Every day it can be harder for some than others to make a decision. We go back and forth from one idea to the other, being pulled in two different directions. This imbalance can also cause mood swings. The scleranthus remedy helps your centre of gravity and restores balance to the mind.
Agrimony - We never really know what happens behind closed doors, or in this case, behind a cheerful demeanour. A smiling face doesn't always mean a happy soul. People that need the agrimony remedy appear as though they are happy, but are really repressing feelings or circumstances that they are afraid to face. This remedy promotes a feeling of acceptance, and also one of joy.'
Mannatech Inc with Sam Caster, produced glyconutrients which also may affect mood. Their product 'Plus' is used for hormones balance that can affect mood swings. Glyconutrients are necessary for optimal health but are mostly missing from our diet.
