Mimulus guttatus

Personal Power

Monkey flower became a symbol of humour, perhaps because the flowers resemble a monkey’s face. Native peoples used the plant mostly for healing wounds.

Mimulus was prepared by Dr Edward Bach and is prescribed for ‘fear or anxiety of known origin’.

This flower essence helps to raise your vibrational energy from the personality to the higher self. The process of lifting your energies from being focused in the solar plexus chakra (the centre that processes emotions) to the heart chakra (the centre of unconditional love and awareness) calms the emotional body by bringing the love and strength of the higher to the lower self.

Monkey flower helps to transform and transmute fears held in the unconscious mind that limit your personal power in the world. The soul needing this essence may be very sensitive and withdraw from stress or conflict as a means of selfprotection.

This is a common defence mechanism, to withdraw rather than face possible confrontation and so block the threat of pain and being hurt.

When you are centred within yourself, in the heart, there is no need to cover up your vulnerability or fear. The sense of security that arises when you stand in your power gives you confidence to face any challenge head-on.

Stand in confidence to uphold your truth. Access the source of your personal power and transform insecurity and fear
