Latin Name:
Centaurium erythaea
Centaurium umbellatum
Purpose:
Centaury flower essence remedy gives "the doormat" or "pleaser" personality the strength of will to say no at the appropriate times. Releases the weak-willed attitude (false illusion) that servitude is the most beneficial avenue. This attitude is often at the cost of neglecting personal needs and depleting one's own energy. Helpful remedy for the codependent personality.
Positive Qualities:
  • strength of will
  • integrity
  • individuality
  • self-responsibilty
  • discrimination to know when to serve
Centaury is one of the original Bach Flower Remedies
