Freshwater Mangrove is an Australian flower remedy derived from Barringtonia acutangula . Promotes openness to new experiences and the healing of mental prejudices. Let's find out better.
Description of the plant
Barringtonia acutangula - freshwater mangrove that can reach about 8 meters high, with leaves up to 15 cm long gathered at the ends of the branches. The plant is multifusto and grows near streams and swamps, particularly in the whole of northern Australia. The stamens of the red flowers form tufts that grow from the pennants that reach 20 cm in length and hang from the branches of the plant.
Commonly known as the 'itch tree' for the caterpillars that live on the underside of the leaves throughout the year and in particular during the rainy season, covered with pungent hairs that create strong skin irritations to human skin.
Aborigines use bark to prepare a substance that temporarily stuns fish to catch them more easily. The name of the species 'acutangola' indicates the quadrangular fibrous fruit.

- It helps to believe that something is possible, that it can be done: it opens up to the awareness of the existence of other modes of action and perception, different from those so far adopted or known.
Preparation and use
In a 30 ml bottle combine naturale natural water and ΒΌ brandy for storing the product; add 7 drops for each chosen flower. This personal mixture is taken 7 drops under the tongue, morning and evening, upon awakening and before sleeping.
The drops can also be applied locally as well, combined with neutral cream as a carrier, in the bath water or vaporized in the environment to create a harmonious place. They can also be prepared without brandy making sure they do not degrade (if necessary, the preparation is repeated). They can be diluted in a little water or herbal teas, even for children.
