In the woods, Grove Sandwort supports the well-being of plants growing nearby by helping them maintain a strong energetic connection with the Earth. For animals Grove Sandwort can be used in much the same way to help newborns establish a stronger connection with the Earth. This will make the eventual weaning process much easier for all involved.

Grove Sandwort also supports the evolving relationship of nurturing between mother and newborn, especially during the early part of the newborn’s life when (s)he is being nursed. If the quality of nurturing in this relationship is lacking, and the weaning and separation processes not handled well, then the tendency for the child/animal is to create codependent connections with others to compensate for the lack of connection with the Earth Mother, which is what each mother is supposed to provide for their children. A common and recent problem is that puppies are being taken away from the mom too soon, much earlier than would happen naturally. These puppies are missing the natural Earth connection their mother would have provided if she had been allowed adequate time.

In summary, Grove Sandwort:

• strengthens the energetic connection between mother, offspring, and the earth.
• aids nursing problems, during and after the weaning process.
• is a key essence for separation anxiety and codependency.
• is for puppies who are going to their forever homes and adult dogs who didn't receive adequate nurturing from their mom, or adult dogs that experience separation anxiety
