The Bach Flower Essences are a safe and natural method of healing. Unlike most herbal preparations (Herbal medicine, Aromatherapy) which procure the medicinal properties by extracting the oil or drying the leaves and root of a plant, Dr. Bach's flower essences are different - they are an extract of the healing properties or "energy" of the plant.
The healing properties extracted cannot be measured like a drug or chemical. But their healing energies lift our vibrations and help clear our energy. They gently restore the balance between mind and body by casting out negative emotions, such as, fear, worry, hatred and indecision which interfere with the equilibrium of the being as a whole. The Bach Flower Essences allow peace and happiness to return to the sufferer so that the body is free to heal itself.
Dr. Edward Bach was a British Physician, who began to see disease as an end product; a final stage; a physical manifestation of unhappiness, fear and worry. He therefore, began to look to nature to find healing flowers. Over a period of years Dr. Bach found 38 healing flowers and plants that with the right preparation became the 38 Bach Flower Essences. These Essences address and help to remove all negative emotional problems.
