An Introduction

"Let

not the simplicity of this method deter you from its use, for you

will find the further your researches advance, the greater you will

realize the simplicity of all creation"*

-Dr. Edward

Bach*In Bach Flower Therapy, as in homeopathy,

'disease' is understood to be merely the end product of a much deeper

disharmony in the patient's self. The mind being

the most sensitive 'part' of the body, the disharmony that leads to

disease, manifests itself most clearly in the mental outlook of the

patient. Hence, in Bach Flower Therapy, the mental outlook of the patient alone is taken as

the guide in selecting the remedies.

Bach Flower Therapy is based on 38 flower-based remedies, each of

which can heal a particular negative emotional state. With these remedies, in

the words of Edward Bach, "not only can we heal ourselves, but we

have the great privilege of being able to help others to heal

themselves, and the only qualifications necessary are love and

sympathy." The remedies used

are completely free of side effects, are non-habit-forming and can

also be used for stress relief and self improvement.

If you happen to be interested in gaining a deeper understanding of

this system, we urge you to read Dr Bach's books
