Keyword - Balanced Responsibility Bach Group - Despair & Despondency
Elm helps those normally very capable people, perhaps with responsible jobs, large families or dependants to care for who suddenly find themselves feeling overburdened, overwhelmed and uncharacteristically unable to cope with their responsibilities. ‘The last straw that broke the camels back’ sums up the negative state of this remedy very well. Taken short term Elm will very quickly help to restore the strength of mind and ability to cope. Taken more long term it will help the Elm personality to determine which responsibilities are truly their own and to balance these with the need for personal nurturing.
Dr Bach placed Elm in the Despondency or Despair Group
Dr Bachs description of Elm:-
"Those who are doing good work, are following the calling of their life
and who hope to do something of importance, and this often for the
benefit of humanity. At times there may be periods of depression
when they feel that the task they have undertaken is too difficult, and
not within the power of a human being."
From the Twelve Healers & Other Remedies - By Dr Edward Bach ( 1936 edition )
