A “Flower Essence Friday” feature on one of our essences.
White Avens flower essence helps restore self-trust and self-care for those who are prone to tantrums, threats, or self-destructive impulses. It helps us recognize the truth of our being and embrace the rebellious child within with strong maternal love and patience. It helps restore a basic belief that our bodies, our families, and our communities are safe and will support and nurture us.

This essence is for those who have had experiences to the contrary in this life or another. Or for those who are under stress, from work overload, arguments, menstrual cycles, etc. A soul in need of White Avens flower essence is apt to feel intensely emotional during disagreements—panicked and threatened to the core, disconnected from reason, out of control, trapped.
As the personality tries to regain power, things escalate, with threats, unrealistic demands, and door slamming. And then, when family members, friends, or authority figures respond with anger, restrictions, and punishment, one’s worst fears are confirmed: “I am unlovable and bad.” Denied its basic needs to be loved and accepted, the inner child is pushed further away.
White Avens essence first stabilizes the situation, nourishing the inner child with self-trust and strengthening the root chakra. This helps the personality feel supported during challenging times. As the inner child feels more love and support, it can release the patterns of desperation, panic, and a need to be in control. This brings healing to the deep and sometimes confusing wounds that penetrate the heart and strongly influence emotional interactions in our lives.
Then, as the emotional body relaxes, White Avens clears the channels to the mind and the Higher Self. One can better listen to the wisdom of one’s inner guides and counselors. Creative solutions flow freely; personal options abound.
