In addition to being the coordinator for Crown Heights Women for the Safety and Integrity of Israel, an organization promulgating the Lubavitcher Rebbe’s banner for Shleimus HaAretz – preserving Israel’s territorial integrity to protect Jewish lives – Pikuach Nefesh, I’m also a Flower Essence practitioner.

Like so many others after October 7th, I wanted to do whatever I could to support my fellow Jews in Israel.  In November 2023,  I launched the Rescue Remedy Flower Essence Project under the auspices of my group named above.

Setting up stations is Yerushalayim and in Tzfat, we made Rescue Remedy, known in Israel as Pirchei Bach, available, free of charge to anyone in need.  Rescue Remedy is a combination of five flower essences renown for quickly calming down and restoring a person’s emotional and mental equilibrium when they are in shock, panic stricken, anxious and/or feeling overwhelmed.

Resonant and positively charged, flower essences are made from herbal infusions of blossoming plants and trees that, as flower essence practitioner Carla Savestsky has observed, “hold the “soul” of the plant and have an affinity or resonance for the emotional/spiritual body in a person.”

Their effect is harmonizing and lifts a person’s spirit........
