Our culture values speed and instant results - everything
must happen now. From fast food, to fast internet connections to speed
dating, we are always in a hurry. But the things that matter most in our
lives often take time and don’t happen instantly. Our most valued
relationships are built over decades, education and building careers can take
years. Clearly, the most important things in life can never be fast.
How do we reconcile the speed of everyday life and the
understanding that “good things take time”?
The cultivation of patience can take many forms.
Meditation and the practice of mindfulness can give great assistance to those
who need to take a break from the rat race and find perspective and
patience. There are also flower essences that can help
calm impatience and soothe our aggravation at the seemingly slow pace
of progress in our lives.
Impatiens (Bach Flower Essence) is the primary essence
for patience. Dr Bach himself was a very impatient person, the
type to snap in irritation at the slow pace of others. He preferred working
alone so he wouldn’t be slowed down. He realized his inner agitation was
a sign of disharmony within himself and discovered the flower essence made from
impatiens eased his tension. Taking Impatiens flower essence, he
discovered his impatience reduced and he was able to relax and work
without anxiety and frustration.
Many times before new circumstances can emerge in our
lives things must first fall away. Sagebrush (Flower Essence Society)
addresses the emptiness we feel when this happens, and helps us realize the
things that are most essential to us are never material or external.
Taking this essence can ease our desire to instantly replace what we have lost,
and learn to have patience with the ebb and flow of our lives.
Timeless Presence (Jane Bell Essences) is a combination
essence that helps us slow down and look deeply into our self. It helps
you release external stimulus and drama, enabling you to discover what is
really true for you. I often recommend Timeless Presence when there is a
lot of chaos and stress in a client’s life and they just don’t know which way
is forward. This essence helps clear away externals and helps you see
what is blocking your progress.
