In Essence: TRANQUILLITY
Affirmations that suit the Flower Essense of White Chestnut:
My mind grows calm and peaceful.
I become quiet within and the answers I seek begin to emerge.
"For those who cannot prevent thoughts, ideas, arguments which they do not desire from entering their minds. Usually at such times when the interest of the moment is not strong enough to keep the mind full. Thoughts which worry and still remain, or if for a time thrown out, will return. They seem to circle round and round and cause mental torture. The presence of such unpleasant thoughts drives out peace and interferes with being able to think only of the work or pleasure of the day." – Dr. Edward Bach

White Chestnut ~ Bach Flower Remedies for Adults
White Chestnut Bach flower remedy is indicated for obsessive, worrying thoughts that seem impossible to control. Sufferers cannot let go of unhappy events or arguments and keep reliving them mentally. Persistent, unwanted thoughts and mental arguments go round and round like a stuck record, leading to a troubled mind.
It is difficult to concentrate during the day, or to sleep at night. The sufferer may therefore appear inattentive and may not answer when spoken to (see also Clematis). The positive potential of White Chestnut is peace of mind.
The head is clear; thinking is under control and can be put to positive use of problem-solving. Worry is replaced by trust in a positive outcome.
