Why Rescue Remedy Should Be in Your Teacher Toolkit<\/h2>\n

Teaching is a rewarding profession\u2014but it\u2019s also one that can cause immeasurable stress. I\u2019ve heard it from educators time and again. We\u2019re overwhelmed, stressed, exhausted, and irritable.<\/span><\/p>\n

I was recently at the doctor’s office, and we were talking about teacher stress. He said, “The number one reason I see patients is for the common cold, and the number two reason is stress. And the people I see most for stress are teachers!”<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ll bet you know what he\u2019s talking about. Have you ever felt overwhelmed? Exhausted? Fearful that you’re losing control? On the verge of insanity when it comes to your teaching job? If so, you\u2019re certainly not alone.<\/span><\/p>\n

But I have a secret weapon against stress that I want to share with you. It\u2019s called <\/span>Rescue Remedy<\/span><\/a>, and it\u2019s a lifesaver!<\/span><\/p>\n

My homeopathy doctor told me about this little piece of magic several years ago. At the time I was really suffering from panic attacks, and Rescue Remedy helped me. But it’s for more than just panic attacks. It\u2019s helpful for the everyday stresses that plague all of us. <\/span><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how my family uses it: If I start feeling overwhelmed, severely irritated, or sense a breakdown coming on, I put a few drops under my tongue, and it resets my emotional system. If my son turns his ankle or gets injured in a basketball game, we put some drops under his tongue, and it speeds up the healing process. My daughter used to have tremendous anxiety about going to the dentist, so we’d give her a few drops to help her stay calm.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rescue Remedy even makes a version for pets<\/a>. On a recent visit to the groomer, our dogs\u2019 prescribed anxiety medication, Amitriptyline, just wasn\u2019t enough to calm them on its own. I gave them each a few drops of Rescue Remedy, and they were good to go!<\/span><\/p>\n

I know it may sound crazy, but Rescue Remedy is totally natural and totally AMAZING. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It’s made from just the juices of flowers, so it\u2019s safe to use. (There\u2019s a teeny bit of alcohol in it, too, but not enough to get you in trouble. And it’s natural grape alcohol, so really, no worries!)<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are the ingredients, and the benefits each offers: <\/span><\/p>\n
