Compassion for yourself
It tells the story of a broken heart, a heart torn apart by sadness and despair, loss of a relationship (not grief). It mends your heart from emotional wounds left by a lover who is long gone (even before you were born). It teases out/combs out the scar and weaves healthy tissue in its place (not for scars or burns). IMAGE: two peas in a pod but one has gone,
Incredible essence for women. Excellent for menstrual problems. It helps create a state of grace and calm during your period. A miracle worker for those with irregular periods, dymenorrhea or severe PMS.
Loving others unconditionally, with an open heart; emotional freedom.
Patterns of imbalance:
Forming relationships based on fear or possessiveness; emotional co-dependence.
Bleeding Heart flower essence is a very powerful heart cleanser and strengthener for those who must learn the deeper spiritual lessons of love and freedom. Those needing this remedy suffer enormous pain and broken-heartedness because their feelings have been poured out so completely into another soul who is no longer present. Perhaps this happens because a loved one has died, or a cherished friend or family member has moved away.
More frequently, such anguish arises in personal relationships which have dissolved, or in relationships that are greatly afflicted. Although love for another may have many genuine aspects, very often the Bleeding Heart type has made the error of living too extensively outside the boundaries of its own Self. This intense desire for connection is often felt by the partner as emotional dependence, causing the partner to fill a need for distance. Such a co-dependent relationship is devoid of real freedom and a balanced exchange of heart energies.
The loss and pain which are constantly felt by those in need of Bleeding Heart are therefore necessary experiences, when viewed from a larger perspective. Through Bleeding Heart flower essence, the soul learns to fill itself from within with strong spiritual forces, so that the capacity to love another is based on the ability to honor and nourish the Self.
