Motherwort Flower Essence
motherwort, the lion hearted.
For appropriate nurturing of the self and soothing the stress of worry that comes from over-concern for another's wellbeing.
this essence brings one into their heart with a fierce truth, an authentic sense of safety and wellness that comes from having been well mothered. In this sense, motherwort carries us out of the "what if's" or the longing states we can get into of worry over other people's well being, and if we "could have done more". rather, motherwort weaves us back into the lion heart of our own existence, into the lion heart of nature and gives us the courage to face all that we are. in this way, our lives become more of a strong hearted living amends if we do have areas of shadow or "places in need of correction" within us. And motherwort does this is a truely nurturing and authentic way. this essence also guides us through grief, trauma, loss of loved one, and it helps us to feel peace with whatever our relationship to our own mother is or was. truly an essence of remothering & being held in our own courage. the spiny nature of the flowers is also an indicator of protection.
