White Chestnut brings the gift of a calm, peaceful mind uncluttered by unnecessary thoughts. Those in need of White Chestnut suffer from a constantly busy mind in which there is no reprieve from revolving thoughts that circulate round and round like a hamster on a wheel. They often experience recurring internal mental arguments and conversations, all states that effectively cut them off from the present moment and can sometimes make it difficult to sleep. White Chestnut brings tranquillity and clarity of thought.

Dr Bach placed White Chestnut in the Insufficient Interest in Present Circumstances Group

Dr Bachs description of White Chestnut:-

"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 will 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".
