White Chestnut

White Chestnut needs a lot of light to grow. It can be found in parks and large gardens in the temperate zones of Europe and America. The fast-growing tree can grow up to 30 meters tall and live up to 150 years. The palmate leaves have five to seven "fingers". In May and June, the white flowers appear as mirror-symmetrical upright candles. White Chestnut is usually monoecious; the fruits are chestnuts.

White Chestnut helps you to switch off and let go. It can be used when thoughts are constantly repeating and you tend to think one-sidedly.

Quote Dr. Edward Bach: "... the best method (of learning) is through quiet thought and meditation, and by placing ourselves in such an atmosphere of peace that our soul is able to speak through our conscience and intuition."

Physical essence effect: If the carousel of thoughts also results in physical reactions, the White Chestnut essence can be helpful. We can stop the rush of thoughts and find a new basis for solving the problem. The physical complaints improve with the increased calmness and security gained.

Emotional: You are tormented by constantly recurring, unwanted thoughts. Feelings are "chewed over" again and again, fixed ideas arise, and insecurity grows. With the White Chestnut essence, the emotional surges calm down and we can direct our attention to other things again. New interest in the present arises, into which we can integrate ourselves.

Mental: With the White Chestnut essence we get the "derailed" mind back under control. The carousel of thoughts dissolves and we can concentrate on the essentials again. You become calm and constructive in your thinking, find peace and mental clarity. It becomes possible to find your way out of the emotional low and redesign your future. By being freed from tormenting thoughts, problems can now be solved and unresolved conflicts can be resolved. You become able to have unpleasant conversations that have been postponed and find inner order again. Before exams, White Chestnut helps to organize your thoughts and structure speeches and writing.

Spiritual: Liberation, clarity and order are important goals of this essence. By freeing ourselves from burdens, our minds become clearer and we can get in touch with our higher self. We recognize the goal and begin to remove everything that is disturbing or blocking us. In this way, we find a new order in our personality and in our environment.

Children: If White Chestnut is deficient, the child has difficulty concentrating. They often have trouble falling asleep and are nervous, even when they have happy expectations. The essence helps them to calm down and to be in a flow of thoughts and motor skills. Combined with Chestnut Bud and Larch, White Chestnut helps with speech and language difficulties (apply externally to the neck and forehead).

Animals: Fearful animals find the White Chestnut essence a calming aid. The restlessness can be easily recognized by the animal's eyebrows. They are constantly moving due to a huge number of impressions. The essence supports the animal in processing impressions and letting go of the "inexplicable".

Corresponding gemstones: Amazonite, Aquamarine.

Affirmation: I let go of stressful thoughts and concentrate on what is essential.
