Beech Bach Flower Remedy

Description

Beech is the remedy for the critical eye. Other people’s habits, accents, mannerisms and inefficiencies grate. You notice faults quickly and precisely, and find it hard to let them go unremarked, even if only internally.

What Beech Is For

This remedy suits intolerance of difference. The person applies their own standards outward and finds most people falling short. There is often real discernment involved — the criticisms are frequently accurate — but the effect is isolating and the irritation is constant.

Where the feeling is hot and personal, closer to anger or envy, Holly is the better fit. Beech is cooler and more judgemental.

The Emotional Picture

Beech types are often intelligent, precise and privately quite rigid. They may pride themselves on high standards while finding daily life abrasive. Small things — chewing, lateness, sloppy work — provoke reactions out of proportion to the cause.

The Positive State

Beech supports tolerance — seeing the circumstances behind other people’s behaviour, and holding standards without needing everyone else to meet them.

How to Use

Take two pills four times a day with a minimum two-hour interval. No age restriction.

Combining With Other Remedies

Beech pairs with Impatiens where the irritation is about slowness, with Holly where anger is present, and with Rock Water where the same rigid standards are also applied to oneself.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is Beech different from Holly?

Beech is cool criticism of others. Holly is hot feeling — anger, envy, suspicion.

Does it mean my criticisms are wrong?

No. The remedy addresses the constant irritation, not the accuracy of the observation.
