| You will hear about Chamomilla all through the baby and children remedies, because it works on so many symptoms common to growing up. Whether they are troubled by colic, teething, green diarrhea,
colds or acute ear pain with colds or cold weather, Chamomilla is often the
solution. The children who respond best to its healing powers want to be
carried all the time and may become very irritable and demanding - though
they typically reject what was just demanded.
You know it's Chamomilla time when one cheek is nice and red while the
other is pale.
Though well known as a baby remedy for calming
restless, irritable insomniacs with teething trouble, ear pain or colic
(watch for watery, greenish stool in the diaper), this remedy has been a
wonder to young and old when a calming touch is needed. The baby needing
Chamomilla wants to be carried and often will reject things soon after
demanding them. The adult is not much better irritability-wise as the anger
cannot be appeased and any pain seems intolerable. Anytime a dry cough or
the sniffles start when coming in from the cold (like Aconite), and anytime
colic and irritability result from anger or too much coffee, Chamomilla can
bring needed relief. One red cheek is a definite pointer to Chamomilla,
especially if everything feels better in warm wet weather. |
