Bach™ Flower Remedies
Bach™ Flower Remedies-Flower Essences
Bach™ Original Flower Remedies:
The culmination of a life's work for Dr. Bach, this system of 38 plant and flower based remedies helps manage the emotional demands of everyday life. Each of the 38 remedies aids a specific emotion and personal combinations can be tailored to everybody's individual needs.
Choosing the right Bach™ Flower Essences for you:
Recognizing exactly how you feel is the key to choosing the most appropriate Bach™ Flower Essence.Try to pinpoint how you are feeling at the moment. Then match the exact mood you're in with the appropriate essence.
For example, if moving house is making you feel frustrated and impatient, try Impatiens. And if you are finding it hard to adapt to your new neighbourhood, try Walnut. Sometimes we find it difficult to be honest with ourselves. Few of us want to be seen as jealous or over-protective, but once we have admitted how we feel, we are halfway towards balancing that emotion. So, if you have trouble working out your feelings, why not ask someone who knows you well to help?
We have included a remedy chooser on the website, to help you simplify the process of combining several rescue remedy's together. We offer a range of courses and seminars which can be booked online to help you become more competent at compiling flower essences. For information on courses please visit the Learn More section of the website to find out about the Bach International Education Program (BIEP).

Where do the Bach™ Flower Essences come from?
The Bach™ Flower Essences were developed by Dr Edward Bach a Harley Street doctor and well known Physician, Bacteriologist, Homeopath and Researcher. He believed that attitude of mind plays a vital role in maintaining health and recovering from illness.
He identified 38 basic negative states of mind and created a plant or flower based remedy for each one.
After leaving London in 1930, Dr Bach explored the countryside in search of the essences for several years. In 1934 he decided to settle down and create a centre for his work, and chose Mount Vernon, a small cottage in Sotwell, Oxfordshire.
He spent the last years of his life at Mount Vernon and it was here that he completed his research.
Nowadays, Mount Vernon is better known as The Bach Centre, and the present custodians continue to prepare the mother tinctures (first process in making the essences), often using the same locations that
Dr. Bach identified in the 1930's.
Only the Bach signature guarantees that you receive the original Bach™ Flower Essences, prepared as they have been since Dr. Bach's time with tinctures made exclusively by the Bach Centre at Mount Vernon.
