We’ve been discussing natural pet calmers and have covered calcium and magnesium, lavender oil, pheromones, melatonin, and Chinese herbal formulas. Now, let’s consider flower essence remedies. These are excellent for weak or debilitated pets because they don’t interact with any medications the pet may be taking. Flower essence remedies have little potential to cause harm and are available over the counter or over the internet.
Here are examples of essences for single flowers and the behaviors they help calm:
• Cherry Plumb- destructive impulses
• Crab Apple- over fixated on trivial
• Heather- dislikes being alone
• Impatiens- irritability, mental tension, unable to cooperate
• Vervain- strain, tension, extremism
• Vine- inflexible, domineering
It’s possible to give flower essence formulas as a single remedy or to combine them and give 5 or 6 together. Many families may be familiar with common flower essence remedies, such as Bach Flowers or Five Flower Remedy. In my experience, www.SpiritEssence.com in Colorado has even more effective remedies.
In a future blog, we’ll cover homeopathic medications as calming agents.
