Greetings!

This year the 'flu/cold' season has been particularly aggressive, and now with swine flu we need to take extra care of ourselves.  I do
not normally get sick, but this year have twice.  In fact, I have just got over a sore throat that lasted a whole week.  My daughter had bronchitis, and my son a sore throat.  We have been eating a lot of grapes, strawberries and drinking honey and lemon. Of course we have been taking the bach flower remedies and Olive has been giving me that extra bit of energy to get me through the day.
 
Feature Remedy
Olive is for those who are exhausted in body and mind after a long period of study, work, or illness. It is a good remedy for convalescence.
Olive provides a restoration of strength, vitality and interest in life.
 
Olive
When from exhaustion,
 from work we must cease,

Too weary for effort, more dead than alive,
The symbol of harmony, symbol of peace,
Holds balm in its flowers to help us revive.
From Flower Remedy Rhymes -by Nora Harrison

Dr Bach's description
Those who have suffered much mentally or physically and are so exhausted and weary that they feel they have no more strength to make any effort. Daily life is hard work for them, without pleasure.
- taken from The Twelve Healers and Other Remedies

ARTICLE: Keeping healthy with the Bach Flowers.
  With the longer days of spring, and warmer weather everyone tries to get back into a
healthier way of life, cycling, jogging, walking, and eating more fruit and vegetables. However, sometimes we aren't quite ourselves and unable to cope with everything that life may hand us. We need a gentle nudge to get our lives back on track.

Fortunately this is when the Bach Flower Remedies can help. They are a series of 38 flower remedies that touch on various aspects of passing moods.  Made from non-poisonous plants native to the British countryside they are a natural and gentle system of self-help. They are safe for the entire family and pet, and have no unwanted side effects.

An increasing problem these days though, is with busier and fuller lives people seem to be lacking sleep, and it can affect our health. Sleeping issues can also be brought on for women with the onset of the 'change of life.' Waking up in the middle of the night and not being able to go back to sleep can be very frustrating, plus it is hard to get up the next morning.

One problem in particular is constant thoughts that keep going around and around in our minds and these keep us awake. White Chestnut can assist with clearing our heads, putting the 'thinking' under control and replacing any worrying thoughts with a trust in a positive outcome.

After a frustrating night of not much sleep, it is then difficult to get up the next morning and face what the day has in store for us. Hornbeam can aid with the strength and ability to face the day. A lively mind, vitality and spontaneity are restored and life is enjoyable again.

Walnut helps you to adjust to a new way of sleeping and to life's changes. It also helps us to make the transition from one way of life to another a little bit easier.

Below is a testimonial from a client who was experiencing difficulty sleeping.
"I have been using different Bach Flower Remedies off and on for almost five years but never for sleep problems. I don't know if my hormones were starting to give me grief or there was too much on my mind but I needed sleep and I needed it now. Sarah mixed up a remedy to help this condition and results were noticed right away. Once again I was lulled into that magnificent other world call 'sleep' and all is well again"...Linda.
