Chicory (Cichorium intybus) dots the Catskill Mountain landscape in July. Dr. Edward Bach included this wildflower in his original 38 flower remedies. Chicory essence nurtures the shift to unconditional love from a pattern of seeking love through manipulation, control or constant need for attention from loved ones. The pattern could show up as subtle or overt and intense.

Chicory softens the compulsion to externalize or project the subconscious feeling of lack (of control, self love, etc.) therefore making it a healer of relationships for those it is suited for. Transforming unhealthy patterns that create disharmony in self and relationship is an essential part of cultivating total wellbeing.

Affirmations to support this shift:

*I am enough.

*I love and am loved freely.

*I am love.

*Giving and receiving love comes naturally and easily.
