Doing fine, then one small setback — a missed bus, a bad test result — and the doubt creeps straight back in, out of proportion to what actually happened.

  • ·Discouraged by small setbacks (a missed bus, a failed test)
  • ·Not as bleak as the Gorse state, but still quick to doubt
  • ·Still willing to try again after a setback
  • ·An emotional reaction out of proportion to the actual obstacle

What it supports

Helps you bounce back from discouragement faster, so you keep actively working toward things getting better instead of just waiting it out.

In Dr. Bach's words

Those who are easily discouraged. They may be progressing well in illness, or in the affairs of their daily life, but any small delay or hindrance to progress causes doubt and soon disheartens them."

Dla tych, którzy łatwo się zniechęcają. Mogą dobrze radzić sobie w chorobie lub w codziennych sprawach, lecz każde małe opóźnienie czy przeszkoda budzi wątpliwości i szybko ich zniechęca.

Bach flower essences support emotional balance and do not replace medication or medical consultation. They do not provide a diagnosis.
