Mustard is for those of us who suffer from periods of deep depression, sadness and gloom, which appear for no apparent reason and will disappear as suddenly as they come on. This remedy helps to dispel these dark clouds and thus allows balance and clarity.

Willow is for when we see ourselves as victims and feel that life has treated us badly. We wrap ourselves in anger, resentment, self-pity and bitterness, blaming others for our misfortune. Between our irritable and sulky moods, we seem to actively enjoy this gloom and despair. The Willow remedy helps to lift us from this hollow of self-mortification and to adopt a more forgiving and positive approach to life.

The Holly remedy is for when we have thoughts of jealousy, envy, suspicion and even hatred or revenge. Also, for when we feel restless, irritated or become angry easily and often lose control.  Holly assists us with the acceptance of ourselves and to see life as the opportunity it truly is, to choose and to feel love.

The Cherry Plum person fears loss of control and reason. They fear insanity and their mind being taken over by sudden violent impulses. This remedy assists in restoring the feeling of self-control and a desire to be responsible for their actions.

Infusions of Aspen, Mimulus, Orange Hawkweed, Chamomile, Agrimony, Chestnut Bud, Beech, Crab Apple, Self Heal, Walnut and Willow, with Star of Bethlehem, Impatiens, Cherry Plum, and Rock Rose.

The Oak personality is strong, reliable, patient and responsible.  They shoulder great burdens without complaint and persevere, despite setbacks, never giving up hope. This obstinacy in continuing with their unceasing efforts, and ignoring all the warning signs, leads them to exhaustion. The Oak remedy helps to rebuild strength and to learn to achieve without strain.

This is the remedy for shock in any form and is indicated whenever there is trauma to the system - both mental and physical - for example from an accident, a bereavement or any emotionally disturbing news which causes great distress. Star of Bethlehem helps to stabilize the mind and body - especially where sudden emotional shock has caused a convulsion of the system - and also assists in acceptance of the inevitable. 

Aspen is recommended for the type of vague, indefinable, anticipatory fear that takes the form of apprehension and anxiety. It will assist persons who are prone to nightmares, sleep walking/talking and terrified that something terrible and unknown is going to happen. This remedy will help the sufferer to gain optimism and trust.

The Vervain person has fixed principles and ideas that cannot be changed, because they are confident they are correct, never considering an alternative. They feel compelled to convert people to their way of thinking and, consequently, overwork themselves to the point of exhaustion. This remedy helps them to wind down, to rest and relax in order to accept new ideas and viewpoints. 

Elm is a remedy for those who are overwhelmed by responsibility, leaving them feeling inadequate and worn out. At times there may be periods of depression when they feel that the task they have undertaken is too difficult, leaving them despondent and exhausted. This remedy helps the mind to become calmer enabling situations to be considered clearly, rationally and methodically.
