WOMEN


 
A page dedicated to women and Bach flowers, regarding two specific moments of being a woman: pregnancy and menopause. The examples given are indicative: every situation is different and it should be carefully evaluated choosing the most suitable flowers.

Pregnancy, maternity

Confusion, dizziness, joy, anxiety, doubts, fears... There are so many emotions and thoughts going through your head and disorienting you when you think you may be pregnant. For most women, the beginning of a pregnancy does not match the romantic idea of everything being necessarily beautiful and perfect. Both body and mind, during the first weeks go through conflicting and ambiguous situations.

Every pregnancy is different; it is therefore necessary to always pay attention to your feelings to choose the best flowers to face this moment of your life in the best way.

  • Concerns  
  • If you are worried that the child may have problems
  • Fears caused by previous abortions
  • If you can’t get pregnant and it becomes an obsession
  • General fear of pregnancy
  • Fear and discomfort caused by body changes    
  • Nausea
  • Pregnancy is a change
Flower remedies for the above problems are White Chestnut ,Gentian, Red Chestnut, Aspen , Crab Apple Star of Bethlehem , Mimulus,Scleranthus, Walnut .

Approaching childbirth, use Rescue Remedy. On this subject, I suggest you to read a direct experience that a friend of ours and his wife had about birth and Bach flowers.

Menopause

First of all, menopause is not a disease but a phase of change, with important physical, mood and emotional repercussions, but still not a disease.

Bach flowers can help during menopause by giving more confidence, reducing discomforts.

Among the Bach flowers, Walnut is the specific one for changes, because it allows us to better get used to the change. It is therefore important to consider it during this phase in which we may have to deal with:

  • Constantly wanting to eat:
  • Hot flashes
  • Sudden mood changes and inability to control the situation
  • Fear of aging related to this phase.
  •  if you don’t feel desired anymore and the attention is mostly turned towards yourself
  • Fear of getting fat
  • If you are nostalgic about the way you were before
  • Swelling 
  • Alternating mood
Crab Apple , Agrimony ,  Scleranthus , walnut , Mustard , Cherry Plum , Honeysuckle ,Heather ,    Chicory and Holly are recommended for the above problems.
