Key indications
Rock Rose may suit you if you recognise several of these:
- Sheer terror or panic
- Nightmares and night terrors
- Frozen with fear after an accident or shock
- Fear that spreads to everyone in the room
The positive potential
Taken over time, Rock Rose helps you move from terror, panic and nightmares toward courage and steadiness in an emergency. Flower remedies work gently and gradually; most people notice the shift within a few weeks of consistent use.
How to take Rock Rose
- From a treatment bottle: add 2 drops of the remedy (4 drops for Rescue Remedy) to a 30 ml dropper bottle of water and take 4 drops from it at least 4 times a day.
- Directly: 2 drops on the tongue or in a glass of water, sipped through the day.
- Globules: 3–4 medicated globules under the tongue, 3–4 times a day.
- There is no fixed course length — continue until the feeling has settled, then stop. Flower remedies are non-habit-forming and safe alongside other medicines.
This is general guidance. For a remedy picture matched to your situation, book a consultation with one of our practitioners.
