BACH FLOWER REMEDIES: CHICORY PEOPLE’S BEHAVIOR
Chicory people may even simulate sickness to keep friends and relatives waiting on them. They may even weep incessantly just for wanting attention all the time. Chicory characters like to have a kind of possessive pride in the feelings and lives of their dear ones. The grandma is very helpful to all the members of her family, loves them and wants to control their lives – organizes, guides, criticizes and directs and quite often forces her attention on the family. She feels hurt if her attentions are not accepted with gratitude. In her own words » I am telling you because I mean you well.» The Chicory mother feels happy in the company of her children. She feels elated if her grown up children make distant calls «How do you do»? on week days, and travel long distances on Sundays and holidays to see her personally. She is aptly described as «the needy mother». When a child feigns sickness – headache, stomach ache or nausea, when the school bus comes to pick him up and feels alright when the school bus has left him, then it can safely be presumed that there is nothing physically wrong with the child. He only wants attention all the time for which the proper remedy is CHICORY.Similarly there are many professional beggars in India who mangle some body-part to invoke sympathy or attention of the public. They need CHICORY Remedy.*86\308\8*
