Red Chestnut is for people who feel fear for the well-being of others - a husband afraid when his wife goes out alone after dark; a mother fretting over what may happen to her child at school. Red Chestnut fears are natural, normal concerns magnified to the point where they have a negative effect on the people who are the object of concern, undermining their confidence and self-belief. When we are in this state, the Red Chestnut remedy helps us send out calm, unworried thoughts to our loved ones, so that instead of making everyone anxious we are rocks on whom others lean. Suggested for when one feels over-concerned and worried for others.
