Does anyone know if mimulus can be used straight onto the tongue rather than a few drops in water?
RE: Mimulus (Bach Flower Remedies)
All Bach remedies can be taken straight on the tongue if needed, but they taste very strong due to the stock tincture being preserved in brandy.
Make sure the dropper doesn't touch the tongue or you'll get cross contamination.
Ok to take like this for acute problems or in emergency, you can't overdose or get dependant, more economical to make up a dropper bottle: 30 mls still mineral water, 2 drops of each remedy needed (up to about 6), one teaspoon of brandy or glycerine or cider vinegar for preservation. Keep in fridge anyway. Dosage 4 drops 4 times a day.
If person can't ingest the brandy in the stock bottle for religious or health resaons, 'burn off' the alochol by putting the drops into very hot tea, or similar.
Or make up treatment bottle as above and put drops on the wrist or behind the ears and rub it in.
Mimulus - for all known fears - remember you can always get support on HP.

RE: Mimulus (Bach Flower Remedies)
Can anyone tell me if you can put the bach flower remedies on your wrist instead of ingesting them. Do they still work the same.
Thanks
RE: Mimulus (Bach Flower Remedies)
They do indeed, but may take a little longer...If you are concerned about the alcohol content in them, just put a few drops into a hot(ish) drink and this will evaporate the alcohol
