cina

Moral :- Cina is a remedy of the plant kingdom and that belongs to the psoric miasm. It is closely allied to Chamomilla. The main feeling of both these remedies is that they are not getting enough attention from their parents. Chamomilla reacts to this by loud shrieking and demanding, not quietened unless carried, whereas Cina reacts with irritability and temper-tantrums such as throwing things, capriciousness and pushing away her parents ("Touched, aversion to being", "Caressed, aversion to being", "Indifference to caresses", "Striking in children", etc.), as if to say: "Where were you when I needed you?" The need for attention in Cina is therefore seen as a refusal and rejection of the same, and as capriciousness which involves also demanding many things without knowing what.
