Bach's Flower Remedies Question

[GeorginaA]

While you're all about on the other thread, I was wondering for some flower remedy advice.

I know nothing about them, but wondered if it might be a route to try for a pick-me-up type thing. At the moment, I'm having a real lull in the day around 3pm where I'm so shattered I can hardly move. Yes, I know it's the pre-school children problem and that it could be improved with a good stretch of unbroken sleep (HA!), but given that that isn't negotiable, is there a Bach Remedy that could give me just a bit more energy to get me through that half hour every day, just until ds1's sleep patterns get themselves back to normal again? Please?

I'll try anything me

I've tried the rescue remedy and tbh I don't think it did anything for me but I did use it for a different situation to you and I have heard from other people that it really works and they keep a bottle in their bags at all times!

Ah, I thought that was more for shock/stress type stuff (see, I told you I knew nothing about them ) Will get some of that then, ta!

Have a look here . You could try Oak or Olive, depending on which description you feel suits your tiredness better.

Nbg - just out of interest, did you take Bach Remedy to calm you? I was told by a friend who swears by the stuff - but it just didn't work for me at all. In fact I was more jittery after taking it!

I've just started using rescue rememdy for early pregnancy mood swings and find it fantastic, it doesn't do anything for my tiredness though, just disperses my foul temper!!!

Thanks WWB will try that.

Anyone got any other tips for chronic tiredness? Other than a cuppa (which doesn't seem to help, bizarrely)?

Have you ever tried Berocca?

Chocol8,

Yes, I used it for flying.
Maybe it didn't work because I'm that frightened of it!

Berocca? Wassat then? (that's a no then, obviously!)

Its effervescant (thats got to be the wrong spelling!) tablets that make a really nice orange drink and they give you a really good boost.

Definately wake you up!

Oooo that's got to be tried, if only for the novelty value.

I know it sounds horrible, but it is good - nettle tea. It is full of B vitamins. Also you may be feeling tired at 3pm because of low blood sugar so have healthy snacks throughout the day.
