Key indications
Water Violet may suit you if you recognise several of these:
- Preferring to be alone; keeping problems to yourself
- Appearing proud, distant or superior
- Others find you hard to get close to
- Bearing grief or pain quietly and independently
The positive potential
Taken over time, Water Violet helps you move from the reserved, self-reliant person who withdraws and can seem aloof toward warm, wise engagement with others. Flower remedies work gently and gradually; most people notice the shift within a few weeks of consistent use.
How to take Water Violet
- From a treatment bottle: add 2 drops of the remedy (4 drops for Rescue Remedy) to a 30 ml dropper bottle of water and take 4 drops from it at least 4 times a day.
- Directly: 2 drops on the tongue or in a glass of water, sipped through the day.
- Globules: 3–4 medicated globules under the tongue, 3–4 times a day.
- There is no fixed course length — continue until the feeling has settled, then stop. Flower remedies are non-habit-forming and safe alongside other medicines.
This is general guidance. For a remedy picture matched to your situation, book a consultation with one of our practitioners.
