Lemon Balm Flower Essence and the Nervous System
Lemon Balm Flower Essence is incredibly calming to the nervous system
Our flower essence of the month for January is Lemon Balm. After the past few years and all that we have experienced, it does not surprise me that Lemon Balm is needed by many right now. Lemon balm is an incredibly calming flower essence. It works in our energy to calm our nervous system and calms and quiets the mind. By doing so, it brings you into the present moment.
How Lemon Balm Flower Essence can help you
Lemon Balm Flower Essence is soothing, gentle and uplifting. As it is so calming for the nervous system, it can assist sleep and bring ease to any feelings of depression or anxiety that may be present. Calming the nervous system and the mind, brings you into your body - allowing you to notice more, while feeling safe in your body. Feel the sun on your skin and be fully present. Bliss. Calming. Relaxing to the mind. It assists in quieting a chattering ‘monkey mind’. Lemon Balm flower essence is simple but effective. Don’t overcomplicate things. Be present. Open. Calm. Quiet. Calming and quieting the mind allows you to be in a state open to receive. Lemon Balm Flower Essence is very supportive to the adrenals and the nervous system. It supports restful sleep and may assist with stabilising mood. When you quiet the mind, you can be present. Being so supportive for the nervous system, Lemon Balm Flower Essence is also a useful flower essence for trauma.
Our nervous systems are wired, leaving us exhausted
Our nervous systems are wired. Flower essences can help.
Trauma and emotions are stored in the body. There are many books that are a testament to this, such as ‘The Body Keeps the Score’ by Bessel van der Kolk. I feel we all know this though. Our bodies know it. If you’ve ever struggled with insomnia, you know that you may not necessarily be thinking about anything, but there is tension in the body, and you cannot relax enough to sleep. Our nervous systems are wired. And especially after the past few years and the ‘new normal’, we are all coping with a lot. Flower essences can support healing underlying emotions that end up as physical symptoms in our bodies. Flower essences are a medicine for our time, and Lemon Balm flower essence is especially needed by so many right now.
Lemon Balm Flower Essence calms the nervous system so we may return to our bodies and be fully present and ready to receive
Become present
When we can calm our nervous systems and quiet our minds, we can once more become present in our bodies. We are able to anchor within ourselves. It is time to stop, to rest, to be. Feel the sun on your skin, the breeze in your hair. Taste the Summer fruit (here in the southern Hemisphere) as you slow down and rest.
