Bach Flower Remedies Rock Essence

After observing specific personality types and their common expressions, Dr. Edward Bach was the first to use flower essences as remedies for specific emotional conditions. Some flower essences, such as rock water essence, are meant to help modify underlying behaviors such as rigidity and perfectionism. To combat fear and nervousness in emergency situations, rock rose essence and rescue remedy are both useful.

Bach Rock Water Essence

• Dr. Bach describes the "rock water personality" as being strict and inflexible. They set very high standards for themselves and may deny themselves the joys and pleasures of life. Constantly seeking self-perfection, they conform to strict schedules and routines as they believe this will set a good example for others. Though expressing a tendency to overwork, they may never feel satisfied with their own achievements.

  Taking rock water flower essence helps individuals who express these personality characteristics to become more flexible in their thinking. It allows a state of inner harmony to be expressed in order to flow more freely through life and not be so attached to rigid ideals or behaviors.

Bach Rock Rose Essence

• Bach rock rose flower essence is meant for those who have been through terror or a crisis. Some examples include a natural disaster, sudden illness or a physical attack. Those who feel full of panic and fear may be benefited most by rock rose essence. Providing calm and courage, rock rose essence is described by Dr. Bach as being the remedy of emergency when there appears to be no hope in sight. Using rock rose remedy allows the positive potential of being courageous and having a calm mind in emergency situations.

  Place two drops directly underneath the tongue or add to a glass of water as needed. Dabbing rock rose essence onto pulse points or moistened lips is another option.

Bach Rescue Remedy

• Rock rose essence is one of the five ingredients in Bach Rescue Remedy. Rescue remedy is a blend of flower essences meant for use in demanding or stressful situations. Helping to face situations with an improved state of mind, Bach Rescue Remedy is useful when emotions of fear, anxiety or confusion set in.

  Also found in Bach Rescue Remedy is impatiens essence. As the name implies, this essence is suitable for those who are impatient or easily irritated. Star of Bethlehem comforts sorrow and pain. Cherry plum flower essence is intended for those who are on the verge of breakdown and fear losing control. Clematis helps to bring awareness into the present situation. The combination of these essences with rock rose essence created Bach Rescue Remedy. Placing four drops underneath the tongue may bring calmness and clarity to stressful situations.
