Rescue Remedy by Tina Erwin

       The Karmic Savings and Loan is primarily about how karma works and how we create, and are affected by karma in our lives. Sometimes, it is worthwhile to consider that to have knowledge about certain things means that we have earned the karma to know it. One of the interesting tenants of the spiritual path is that as we progress, we are offered certain tools to help us along that path and truly Bach Flower Essences are a miraculous tool to have. They are absolutely a gift from God.

         Everything that happens to us begins on the etheric level. Eventually, inevitably, it manifests on the physical level. So when we are faced with the physical manifestation in the form of a bruise, a wound, or grief we seldom think to treat that problem on the etheric level. However, the wise ones among us know that treating the etheric level automatically results in accelerating the healing on the physical level.

         A Bach Flower Essence is the energetic essence of a specific plant. God placed every single plant on Earth for a reason and through a miracle, a man named Dr. Edward Bach discovered how to translate the energy of specific, non-poisonous flowers into a form that can be used by human beings, animals and even plants.

         The most famous of Dr. Bach’s essences is something called Rescue Remedy. This is a creation from the essences of five plants: Star of Bethlehem, Cherry Plum, Rock Rose, Impatiens, and Clematis. This unique combination has the uncanny ability to virtually, instantly bring balance to the body in any situation, any trauma, and any grief. You can also use it literally every fifteen minutes or as long as the stressing situation lasts. The trick is to remember to use it.

         How do you use this amazing tool? Rescue Remedy comes in the form of liquid in a Brandy suspension, in a spray or pastilles. Delivery methods include:

         • placing several drops in a glass of pure water and drinking it slowly.

         • placing a dropper full under your tongue and feeling it penetrate your etheric body and bringing a measure of peace and calming to you.

         • putting a few drops in spring water in a spray bottle and spraying an individual if necessary.

         • Since it also comes in a spray bottle, spray it in your mouth or on a wound.

         • It also comes in a gummy form, called pastilles and you can chew or suck them to bring you balance.

         How and when do you use this magnificent, yet humble tool?

         • In an accident, the etheric body of a person or an animal is damaged. Use it on both wounds, points of trauma or orally or all of the above.

         • Do this for animals as well. Perhaps a bird flies into your window and is really stunned on the ground. If you can pick up the little creature, gently place one drop of Rescue Remedy in its mouth. Then hold it in your hands to give it warmth and healing. Within 5-7 minutes, the bird may simply fly out of your hands.

         • It would not be far fetched to use it on your car if it was in an accident where you spray the car with water and Rescue Remedy.

         • Consider using it for other injured animals or even plants that have been damaged.

         • If you have a stubborn blemish that will not go away, try Rescue Remedy on it neat, undiluted. Do the same thing with a wound, bruise, area of swelling, or ache.

         • In a death or divorce situation, use Rescue Remedy for trauma, Mimulus for fear and Star of Bethlehem for pure grief. This is an exceptionally dynamic trio.

         • Rescue Remedy on burns is incredibly important, because burns represent a fiery internal rage that has now become manifest in the physical body. Always look for what you are really ‘burned up’ about. If you can identify this early, take Rescue Remedy before you burn yourself. After a burn happens, use Rescue Remedy and Lavender Essential Oil on the burn.

         • Try Rescue Remedy on tumors, cysts anything. It only affects you physically in as much as you are treating the etheric body.

         It is worth taking the time to study how the Essences work and also to note that there are essences that come from wild flowers in Alaska, essences that are made by other companies as well. The point is that this is a very, very dynamic healing tool. Keep Rescue Remedy in your purse, your car, at home, at the office and in luggage when you travel. Be creative in how you use it and grateful that you even know about this amazing healing gift.

          Also, at this hectic time of year, using these essences can keep you much calmer, happier and with the feeling that you can handle what is coming your way, especially all those unexpected things that often seem overwhelming.
