Bach Flower Remedies - Centaury

 

Latin Name: Centaurium umbellatum

 
Description

Characteristic: Trying to Please Others

 

Centaury is one of Bach's original twelve remedies. It is for people that find it difficult to say no. This remedy should be taken by those who find it hard to stand up for themselves. They are anxious, full of kindness and easy to please. They do not want to let people down and thus would rather sacrifice their own wishes and co-operate with others in order to maintain the peace. They may be dissatisfied with the current state of affairs but would rather feel this way then deal with a potential confrontation. These individuals tend to be timid, quiet, and passive and have little strength to project their own vocations. They may feel bound to their family, because it would be too hurtful to others to see them go, even if within they desire personal freedom.
