Impatiens

…is one of the remedies that Dr. Bach grouped under the category of loneliness.

Introduction to the eighteenth Bach Flower on my blog @AngelaWuerz.com

Impatiens is the perfect remedy for those who find themselves easily irritated or frustrated. They are often impatient and want everything done immediately, thinking, acting, and speaking quickly. These individuals are highly capable and efficient but may become exasperated with slower co-workers, often preferring to work alone. They dislike wasting time and sometimes finish other people’s sentences in their haste.

Those in need of Impatiens may experience brief temper flare-ups, although these pass quickly. When unwell, they tend to be restless and irritable, making them fidgety patients. Their impatience can sometimes lead to accident-proneness.

The positive potential of Impatiens is a person who remains decisive and spontaneous while showing greater patience and thoughtfulness in their actions. They are relaxed, good-humoured, and understanding toward those who are slower. With this balance, they approach challenges calmly and diplomatically, fostering harmony in both personal and professional settings.

Dr. Bach’s description:

“Those who are quick in thought and action and who wish all things to be done without hesitation or delay. When ill, they are anxious for a hasty recovery. They find it very difficult to be patient with people who are slow, as they consider it wrong and a waste of time, and they will endeavour to make such people quicker in all ways. They often prefer to work and think alone, so that they can do everything at their own speed.”
