BACH FLOWERS

• Dr. Bach’s philosophy is one of simplicity and this was reflected in his way of life, style of living and in his completed work – 38 flower remedies which gently ease distress and cobat ill-health by enabling harmony and peace to flood our lives. He died in 1936)

WHAT ARE THE FLOWER REMEDIES?

• Health is our heritage, our right. It is the complete and full union between soul, mind and body; and this is not a difficult far-away ideal to attain, but one so easy and natural that many of us have overlooked it.

• 38 remedies – each for a specific emotional and mental state, plus a combination of five of the remedies designed for difficult and demanding situations, “Rescue Remedy.”

• 37 of the 38 are based on single wild flowers and tree blossoms. Rock Water is made from the water of a natural spring with healing properties.

HOW THEY WORK

• They treating the individual, not the disease or the symptoms of the disease.
• Work on emotional condition of the person concerned. (Two people with same complaints such as arthritis may benefit quite different – one may be resigned to the illness, while the other may be impatient with it – so different remedies will be appropriate in each case.)

• Effect is not suppress negative attitudes but to transform them into positive one, stimulating one’s own potential for self-healing and freeing the physical system to engage fully in fighting disease and stress.

• Remedies are invaluable in restoring the balance before physical symptoms appear.

HOW LONG WILL THEY KEEP?

• Concentrated form up to five years.

Dr Bach’s Philosophy

• Simple – based on the innate perfection and spiritual nature of human beings. Disease is “entirely the result of a conflict between our spiritual and mortal selves. Health and happiness result from being in harmony with our own nature, and doing the work for which we are individually suited.

• 38 remedies are divided into 7 groups FEAR UNCERTAINTY – INSUFFICIENT INTEREST IN PRESENT CIRCUMSTANCES LONELINESS – OVERSENSITIVITY TO INFLUENCES AND IDEAS DESPONDENCY OR DESPAIR OVERCARE FOR THE WELFARE OF OTHERS.

 The stages in the healing of disease …. Peace, Hope, Joy, Faith, Certainty, Wisdom, Love
