If you are suffering from anxiety or a high level of stress, you may want to look into the help you can obtain by using Bach Flowers. This is an old trick using the vibration of flowers or plants.

Pine is one of them and it is utilized to help decrease guilt and increase the ability to forgive oneself of anything going on their lives.

Some others are sweet chestnut, walnuts and gentian. Sweet walnut is used to increase the level of hope and a quiet mind. Walnuts are commonly used to guide someone that is being effected by a major life change. It can be for those who need a little boost of self esteem or additional confidence to get through this time in their lives. Gentian is for lifting the spirits and helping to improve your faith and make better things happen for you in your life. Impatiens are to improve the level of patience and ease the feeling of annoyance that herpes can bring. Gorse is for someone living with herpes that has begun to lose faith and even become depressed.

ReplyDeleteVery interesting blog, I had never heard of Bach flowers especially involving the treatment of herpes in women. I didn't know something else was used other than Valtrex.
ReplyDeleteWell Valtrex certainly does treat the physical symptoms of the herpes virus, but as the article called it, the use of Bach flowers is a holistic therapy approach. Some will swear by it's effectiveness, other will shun it as being ridiculous, putting too much faith in flowers. Try googling Bach flowers. Maybe you can come to your own conclusion after researching the whole idea in general. They aren't just used to treat herpes, but all types of maladies.
ReplyDeleteMe either, never even heard of anything like it before reading this article and the post before mine.
ReplyDeleteI have heard of the Bach Flowers treating many things including herpes....I just haven't necessarily heard any feedback on whether it works or not.
ReplyDeleteI hadn't heard of it before this. Not trying to be rude, because I'm sure that those who say it works for them genuinely believe it, but it does seem a little far fetched I think.
