Are you a Silent Worrier?

Do you recognise any of these traits in yourself?

• You were quiet a shy child at school, afraid of being noticed or picked on?.
• You have a history of being bullied that has left you anxious about most things in life.
• Perhaps you stammer and stutter or perhaps you blush very easily.
• You remember the tummy aches you would get the night before you had a test or to read out loud in class.
• You feel worried and anxious about everyday things in life.
• You worry  about real things that exist and you feel this fear to the core of your being.
• You might have a constant internal dialogue, despite not showing any obvious signs of stress.
• You are thought of as quiet and mild, but you do have courage!

If you recognise these and you keep these thoughts, feelings and worries to yourself...whilst trying to portray a calm exterior, then you are likely in a Silent Worrier state and need to take the Mimulus Bach Flower Remedy.

Developing an Mimulus State?

The interesting thing about the Mimulus state often develops first as a child. You may not have been aware of feeling anxious as a young child; but you probably felt worried or reluctant to enter into life, to engage with people and experiences.  

But, as you’ve gone through life, have you found that you’re afraid of almost everything – from ‘normal things’ like spiders or flying, or even sometimes just crossing a busy road!

If this sounds like you... then likely you’re in need of the Bach Flower Remedy Mimulus.

More details on Mimulus

The remedy Mimulus is about fear and anxieties of daily life. It’s the remedy for what we call ‘known fears’. If you know what you’re afraid of – whether it’s flying, falling ill, escalators, or anything (and everything) else, then Mimulus will help with your anxieties.

The need for Mimulus manifests as a visceral fear felt within the core of your being, which feels emotionally toxic.  The Silent Worrier Mimulus doesn’t talk about their anxieties, though. They keep them to themselves – and often push them down into their stomach and have ‘butterflies in the stomach’.  

Sometimes applying logic gives you the ability to face your challenges.

Humans are complex and emotions are complicated...  there often a mixture of emotions that all go together. Quite commonly you might find that these two remedies will be needed along side Mimulus:

Larch – brings self confidence. 
Pine – for feelings ‘done wrong’ and shame.
