療癒課題
有固定原則與觀念，對認為正確的事非常有熱誠，過度鞭策自己，導致工作狂。常以自己心信的原則或信仰，試圖改變別人的思想，並相信這樣會讓他們生活得更美好。由於過度熱衷，常給予自己太多壓力，遇到困難時，就會感到挫折，導致身心緊張。馬鞭草協助這些人能包容別人的想法，更宏觀、更放鬆鎮靜。
Vervain helps those who need to restore balance to the unconscious belief that it is their responsibility to take care of everything around them.
Those in need of Vervain have very high principles and ideals that they seek to convert others to, by the sheer force of their will and enthusiasm. They are perfectionists who tend to overwork, driving themselves way past what is reasonable, often becoming wound up & highly strung as a result. In the acute state they can be fanatical, over zealous and incensed by injustice.
Vervain restores balance to these states allowing the personality to take a more realistic perspective in its attitude to responsibility and to recognise the need for others to have the freedom to follow their own path in life.
