Bach Flower Remedies

Origin of the Bach Flower Remedies

The Bach Flower Remedies were developed by the English doctor Dr. Edward Bach (1886 to 1936). Dr. Bach felt that the origin of physical illness was found in psychological disharmony and a negative frame of mind. In order to redress the internal balance, he chose 38 English home-grown plants and associated them with human mental conditions. These 38 negative psychological conditions are meant to be expressed through precise complaints. Healing, according to the Bach Flower Remedies, involves the transformation of weaknesses of character through notional and spiritual efforts into virtues. The substance content of the plants plays no significant role. It is meant to be the very fine vibrations of the flowers which have a healing effect on the soul.

The Extraction of Flower Essences for the Bach Flower Remedies

The flowers are picked on a sunny, cloudless day and placed in a glass bowl which is filled with spring water. The bowls are then placed, on location of the flower, in the sun for 3 to 4 hours. The withered flowers are removed and the essence is preserved in alcohol on the premises. This mixture is then diluted and filled with spring water at a ratio of 1:240.

Applying Bach Flower Remedies

Bach Flower Remedies can be applied for various purposes:

  • For acute psychological problems
  • For long and continuous psychological strain
  • To further develop ones own personality.

Determining the right flower for treatment:

  • It is the right flower if the flower description reflects ones personal situation.
  • If several flower characteristics simultaneously apply then one can chose a mixture of various flower essences. One can only combine 2 to 3 Bach Flower essences at a time.

Rescue Drops can be seen as the amended 39th essence of the flower essence palette. The Rescue Drops are a fixed combination of 5 Bach Flower concentrates which serve as "first aid drops". The Rescue Drops are applied after trauma, shock, accidents or in stress situations.
