Star of Bethlehem is one of 38 Bach flower remedies created by Dr Edward Bach in the 1930s. It is for those who have experienced trauma or shock and provides comfort in those situations. It is helpful not just in the moment of a distressing event but also to process unresolved past trauma. In this blog, we'll look at this remedy in detail, including its negative behavioural patterns when it's unblocked and its positive capabilities.
Star of Bethlehem flower remedy helps with shock and trauma. It can help those who feel numb and are trapped in a state of shock, physically, mentally or spiritually. Dr Bach described this flower remedy as "the comforter and soother of pains and sorrows."
In the negative Star of Bethlehem state, the soul has decided to withdraw from reality, not wanting to process or feel difficult emotions. This retreat then causes the body to shut down emotionally and any further shocks to the system build up to the point of paralysis. If the initial trauma isn't dealt with, over time the person becomes less and less functioning each time a new issues arises. The person becomes less able to deal with their emotions, leading to mental health and emotional difficulties as a result of unprocessed trauma.
This remedy provides comfort to the individual so that they can arise from this state of numbness and start to engage more with life.
Star of Bethlehem can often be a catalyst for resolving other issues as sometimes the trauma is unrecognised by the individual. Sometimes it may take a number of months to resolve if the trauma is well hidden.

The Star of Bethlehem Bach flower remedy is included in the combination mix Rescue Remedy which was created by Dr Bach to be used in emergency or crisis situations. It is one of the most important flower remedies in the Rescue Remedy mix as it neutralises the shock and trauma from the emergency situation.
Sometimes trauma can be long-lasting and can manifest itself as post-traumatic-stress-disorder (PTSD) which is a mental health disorder which occurs after a traumatic event which can include anxiety, flash-backs, mood disturbances, feeling on edge or sleep disturbances to name a few symptoms. I've written a blog post specifically around flower remedies for PTSD which you may want to read and Star of Bethlehem is one of the key flower remedies you might want to consider to help bring comfort.
