– The Twelve Healers and Other Remedies
Fiona was in a car accident five years ago. Her whiplash was getting better, but the emotional wounds had not yet started healing. It had all happened so quickly. One minute she had been in the car with her fiancé, happy and without a care in the world, and the next, a vehicle appeared from nowhere and her fiancé was hunched up over the steering wheel dead. There was a feeling of loss, grief, sadness, and numbness. Nothing seemed to help her get over the shock and trauma.
Wow, thank you Star of Bethlehem, I feel so much better now. My emotional wounds are gradually healing over time and will soon be faded scars. The memory of the terrible events is being pushed further and further to the back of my mind. The remedies, counseling, and physiotherapy have done their part helping the whiplash and emotional pain of what happened.
Thank goodness for Star of Bethlehem, a delicate white star-shaped flower, being the comforter and soother of pains and sorrows. It is a star of hope reaching out to us in our time of need and assisting to neutralize the negative feelings.
