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.
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 a very capable person who is certain of their own ability and confident of success. They have a tendency to use their gifts to gain power, dominate others and be aggressively proud. This greed for power and authority can make them tyrannical and dictatorial. The Vine remedy does not affect self-assurance or leadership, but will help these people to become less harsh or severe and more understanding of other people, especially those whom they consider to be weaker.

Honeysuckle is the remedy for when we are living more in the past than the present. Dwelling on memories of past events, whether happy or sad, reminiscing generally and wishing things could be as they were or wish they had been different. Honeysuckle helps us to remember and reflect on cherished memories and past happiness while feeling the benefit of them in the present moment. This remedy assists us to ground and feel all our experiences in this ‘now’ moment.
Hornbeam helps enable those of us who think we have not sufficient strength, mentally or physically, to carry the burden life has placed on us. We experience weariness and fatigue from the thought of what lies ahead. That ‘Monday morning’ or ‘morning after’ feeling. This remedy assists in giving emotional strength to those who cannot face the day ahead or who cannot raise enthusiasm for a given project or duty.
This remedy is for indecision and uncertainty and is invaluable for people who cannot choose between one thing and another. Often any decisions made will later be reversed and, as they are unable to discuss their difficulties with others, they struggle alone. Scleranthus helps these people to see the larger picture required to make informed decisions.
The Red Chestnut person’s worries and anxieties are for others. Their thoughts are solely occupied with the health and well being of other members of their family, friends or acquaintances – often to the extent they have ceased to worry about themselves. Red Chestnut helps with the realization that one can only be responsible for one’s self and this clarity helps to overcome their fears and to trust in the process of life.
The Clematis person is quiet, dreamy and drowsy, appearing to be not fully awake and have no great interest in life. They live more in the future than in the present and are absent-minded and inattentive, appearing to be in a world of their own. This remedy helps to be more concentrated and grounded in the present.
