POOR SELF-CONSIDERATION, SENSE OF INTERIOR DIRTINESS, DESPISE OF ONE’S OWN PHYSICAL ASPECT

Crab Apple is known as the cleansing remedy, and as such is the added ‘sixth ingredient’ in the cream version of Dr. Bach’s original crisis formula.

Its main use is to help people who dislike some aspect of their appearance or personality or feel that they have something unclean or poisonous about them.

Sometimes in a Crab Apple state, we disregard genuine problems and concentrate obsessively on one thing that we have fixed on – sometimes a quite minor aspect of the whole.

We might take Crab Apple to cleanse obsessive, repetitive behaviour such as hand-washing, re-checking that appliances are unplugged, and so on.
