Passiflora, Blessed Herbs and John of God

Passiflora at the Casa
Today I  began taking the blessed healing herbs from John of God. The capsules are always filled with passiflora, grown in the Casa and with the label of the Farmacia de Dom Ignacio. The are calibrated to my individual vibration specifically.  Already I can feel that they contain the same energy (I call it Source energy) that Braco transmits. Very exciting! I have to take the capsules (3x1/day) for 55 days. I have a feeling that this might be because 5 is the number of change, new life periods, and transformation.

The passiflora capsules I am taking.
Passionflower or passiflora (Passiflora incarnata) is used in traditional remedies as a "calming" herb for anxiety, insomnia, seizures, and hysteria. During the early twentieth century, this herb was included in many over-the-counter sedatives and sleep aids.

In Germany, where I am at the moment, passionflower is available as an over-the-counter sedative in combination with other calming herbs such as valerian and lemon balm. It is also used in German homeopathic medicine to treat pain, insomnia, and nervous restlessness.

Today, professional herbalists use passionflower (often in combination with other calming herbs) to help treat insomnia, tension, and other health problems related to anxiety and nervousness.

  1. I am enjoying your posts!

    I look forward to seeing what you experience in taking these capsules. :)

    I use an herbal relaxation formula at night sometimes. It contains Passionflower, Valerian, Chamomile, Lemon Balm and other effective herbs. I wake up feeling rested but not drugged. Good stuff!

  2. I came upon this blog post while doing some research on passiflora which are contained in capsules from John of God. I begin taking them today, August 19, 2013. Your article was 2 years ago.

    I'm curious to know what you experienced throughout the 55 days?
