Rescue Remedy is the most famous of the remedies, but in fact is not a remedy at all but rather a mix of five different remedies, which together help you deal with any emergency or stressful event. However, it is not intended to replace emergency care or assistance. The five different remedies are: Star of Bethlehem - for shock - comfort & consolation. Rock Rose - for terror and panic - peace/fearlessness. Clematis - for faintness - focus. Impatiens - for undue agitation - patience. Cherry Plum - for loss of self-control and hysteria - calmness/ composure. A natural relief in stressful situations such as: Air travel, exams, interviews, public speaking, child birth/operations, sudden bad news/shock, dentist/doctor appointments.
