BACH FLOWER REMEDIES: POSITIVE AGRIMONY STATE
Positive Agrimony state is aptly compared to children’s temperament—carefree, quickly forgetting harsh moments of life and able to resume their normal cheerful outlook. Those who can maintain their evenness of temper under all circumstance; who have peace inside and outside, who have genuine inner joyfulness. A person with the above temperament would also invite Agrimony as a constitutional medicine.Case No.l : A nine year old boy, who had asthma from birth was given ‘Agrimony’ by Dr. Krishnamoorty on the symptom that he was a happy cheerful child who made no fuss during attacks and made the best of his disability.
