Philotheca

Negative State

• Inability to accept recognition
• Excessive generosity

Positive Effect

• Accepting love and recognition
• Being able to handle praise

How we deal with praise, recognition, and love reveals a lot about us. Every person needs positive affirmation and affection from others. But sometimes we simply don't believe in it. We don't consider it possible that others agree with us, value us, love us, or like us. The bush flower essence Philoteca balances out this mistaken lack of self-worth and self-confidence.

It grants us the ability to accept positive reactions, love, and recognition. When someone praises us because we've done something right, we believe it. The encouragement builds us up.

What the Essence Gives Us

Philoteca grants us an important gift, namely the ability to accept praise, recognition, and gratitude. When we accomplish something important or succeed at something, we can joyfully accept the thanks and positive reactions. We no longer doubt them or ourselves. Only through this do we become capable of also accepting the love of other people and allowing it to have a positive effect on us. An important prerequisite for receiving and internalizing love is self-love. As long as we doubt ourselves, we inwardly reject the affection of other people.

The Essence for Accepting Praise and Love

In Western industrialized nations, it can happen that we criticize people who have achieved and accomplished a great deal to an exaggerated degree. We envy the success of others and don't leave a shred of goodness in it.

A good female student is quickly labeled a swot, a successful male student an upstart. Even in wealthy business people and those who do many things right professionally or privately, we only see the bad. That's why it's so important to acknowledge and praise people who strive for higher things.

Having goals is important. They can give our lives meaning. For this very reason, it's significant that we can accept praise and positive affirmation. The essence enables us to do this. Our exaggerated generosity is reduced. Finally, we fully internalize love, words of appreciation, thanks, and praise into our inner being and grow from them. We are heard and overcome shyness.

Children

Children can sometimes be incapable of accepting recognition and believing in it. Often they are then also excessively generous. The essence enables them to accept love and recognition and to take joy in it. Praise once again has the effect on the little ones that it should. Self-confidence grows.

Animals

When animals are reserved, timid, and shy, we give them the bush flower essence Philoteca. They approach people and other four-legged creatures with more composure and joy, and happily accept praise and love. Through the essence, animals find their way to greater self-assurance and self-confidence.
