About this herb:
Scientific name: Scleranthus annuus

The aims of this flower essence:
One cannot reach a decision. Internally, you are unevenly tempered, views and moods change from one moment to the next.

Dr. Bach wrote:
Those who suffer much from being unable to decide between two things, first one seeming right then the other. They are usually quiet people, and bear their difficulty alone, as they are not inclined to discuss it with others. Those who have not sufficient confidence in themselves to make their own decisions. They constantly seek advice from others, and are often misguided.  (The 12 Healers and other remedies, 1936)
