It’s meant to be the happiest time of the year, but sometimes the festive season is fraught with difficulty! Here are our top tips for flower remedies to help you handle whatever the silly season sends your way.

UP, UP & AWAY REMINDS YOU TO PRIORITISE SELF-CARE AND HEALTHY BOUNDARIES

If you’re the giver, nurturer or caretaker in your family, you’ve probably found that between the shopping, cooking and hosting, Christmas is a time that can leave you feeling wrung out and worn out.

While it might be temping to feel as though the reason this happens is that others aren’t pulling their weight, is it also possible that you’ve been putting yourself on the bottom of your to do list?

If you have a tendency to take on too much – including being overly sensitive to other people’s energy and emotions – then Up, Up & Away might just be your new best friend.

Consider working with this  flower essence and flower essence mist when you need a gentle reminder that it’s just as important to take good care of yourself as it is to look after everyone else, and that it’s okay to say ‘No’ when you’ve reached the limit of what’s comfortable and appropriate for you.

Up, Up & Away is available as a  single flower essence or flower essence mist, which are found together in our Up, Up & Away Kit. Up, Up & Away Flower Essence is also found in the Quietly Confident Flower Essence Kit, which is discussed below.

EXPRESS YOURSELF HELPS YOU COMMUNICATE WITH COMPASSION

All the concentrated family time that comes with Christmas can sometimes lead to intense conversations – or might even leave you feeling that you can’t speak up for yourself at all.

If these issues tend to come up for you over the holiday period, consider working with  Express Yourself, a flower remedy that supports you in speaking your truth in a way that’s both honest and compassionate - to yourself and those you’re communicating with.

Express Yourself is available as a  single flower remedy, or in combination with Up, Up & Away (above) and Guiding Light in our Quietly Confident Flower Essence Kit.

BAGGAGE BUSTER HELPS YOU LET GO OF THE PAST

Available as both a  flower essence and a flower essence mist, Baggage Buster is on a mission to help you let go of the past.

If you’re ready to bring a fresh attitude to the Christmas table this year, start here!

TIP: Consider spritzing some  Baggage Buster Mist around your home if it’s been the storehouse of tense emotions or has witnessed negative interactions and you want to freshen up the space and start over.

Baggage Buster Flower Essence and Flower Essence Mist are found together in our Baggage Buster Kit. The flower essence is also found in the In with the New Flower Essence Kit, along with Go with the Flow (discussed below) and Peek-A-Boo.

GO WITH THE FLOW HELPS YOU TRUST THAT IT'LL ALL WORK OUT AS IT SHOULD

When it comes down to it, Christmas really is a chaotic time. Between the work deadlines, the end-of-the-school-year merry-go-round and all the socialising, shopping and other commitments you’ve got in your diary, it’s easy to let tension and frustration creep in.

If you’re finding it hard to let go of control and ease into whatever is happening around you, consider taking  Go with the Flow, a flower essence that’s on a mission to remind you to trust in the universe with a sense of curiosity and openness rather than panic and tension.

Go with the Flow is available as both a  single flower remedy, or in our In with the New Kit, along with Baggage Buster (above) and Peek-A-Boo - a great combination of essences to use at times when you're ready to release old patterns and expectations and make a fresh start!

MOMENT IN TIME REMINDS YOU TO STAY MINDFUL AND PRESENT

This busy period really is meant to be enjoyed, but if you’re feeling overwhelmed by all the things you haven’t gotten done yet, it’s hard to connect with the spirit of the season.

Bring yourself back to a state of mindfulness with  Moment in Time, which is a very centering flower remedy, and one that helps you to focus on where you are and what you need to do right here and right now – whether that’s knuckling down and getting the presents wrapped or being fully present with your family around the table.

Moment in Time is available as a  single flower remedy, or in the Life of the Party Kit, along with our Lighten Up, Buttercup Flower Essence - the perfect combination of essences when your intention is to focus on being present and positive.

SHOCK ABSORBER SUPPORTS YOU IN TROUBLED TIMES

Unfortunately, Christmas and all that it represents can be a very triggering time for many people. If it tends to bring up memories of negative experiences from the past or causes unpleasant emotional turmoil,  Shock Absorber and Shock Absorber Mist are very grounding and calming, so they can help you hold your centre as you navigate the holiday period.

Shock Absorber drops are also available as  a single flower remedy or in our Shock Absorber Triple Pack.

You don’t have to go it alone.

We also recommend that you talk to your healthcare professional about strategies to help you cope right now and ultimately to resolve the issues you’re facing so that you can reduce their long-term impact.

And if you need to talk to someone in confidence, remember that you can always contact Lifeline on 13 11 14 or reach out to Beyond Blue – both services operate around the clock and are available free of charge.
