Mustard - Bach Flower Remedies Mustard - Bach Flower Remedies

Gloom or depression which comes and goes for no apparent reason.

Mustard - Bach Flower Remedies
Mustard dispels gloom or depression, that often feels like a weight or black cloud overhead. These feelings of despair come, and go for seemingly no apparent reason. Mustard casts out the clouds bringing back joy and sunlight.

Dr Bachs description of Mustard:-
"Those who are liable to times of gloom, or even despair, as though a cold dark cloud overshadowed them and hid the light and the joy of life. It may not be possible to give any reason or explanation for such attacks. Under these conditions it is almost impossible to appear happy or cheerful".
From the Twelve Healers & Other Remedies - By Dr Edward Bach ( 1936 edition )

Dr Bach placed Mustard in the Insufficient Interest in Present Circumstances Group

Centaury - Bach Flower Remedies Centaury - Bach Flower Remedies

For those that can at times be weak willed or subservient.... The Centaury remedy, helps us to develop a stronger will and greater sense of ourselves.

Centaury - Bach Flower Remedies

Unable to say "no". Often taking on too much and tiring themselves out. A distorted view of service. Lacking willpower, the weak mind frequently resulting in a weak body. Folks needing Centaury often lack individuality, being so influenced by stronger personalities. This essence brings strength and the ability to say "no" without guilt, when necessary.

Dr Bach's description of Centaury:-

"Kind, quiet, gentle people who are over-anxious to serve others.
They overtax their strength in their endeavours. Their wish so grows
upon them that they become more servants than willing helpers.
Their good nature leads them to do more than their own share ofwork,
and in so doing they may neglect their own particular missionin life."
From the Twelve Healers & Other Remedies - By Dr Edward Bach ( 1936 edition )

Dr Bach placed Centaury in the Oversensitive to Influences and Ideas Group

How To Use:- To do this you can put 2 drops of each remedy required into a clean glass dropper bottle containing up to 30ml of spring or spa water, adding a teaspoon full of brandy or cider vinegar as a preservative. You can also put 4 drops into a glass of water and sip. We would recommend a dosage of 8 x a day for chronic states and every 30-60 minutes for acute states, reverting to the normal dosage when more balance has returned.

They often take alcohol or drugs in excess, to stimulate themselves and help themselves bear their trials with cheerfulness."
