Bach Flower Remedies | Hawthorn Healing

Bach Flower Remedies, developed by Dr. Edward Bach in the 1930s, are a system of natural remedies designed to address emotional imbalances and promote holistic wellbeing. Dr. Bach believed that emotional disharmony was the root cause of many physical ailments and sought to create a gentle yet effective method for restoring emotional balance. The remedies are derived from various flowers and plants, each chosen for its specific ability to address different emotional states and tendencies. These remedies offer a gentle yet powerful approach to emotional healing by working on the subtle energies of the body and mind. They are believed to help alleviate negative emotions such as fear, uncertainty, despair, and loneliness, allowing one to experience greater emotional resilience and inner peace. By addressing the underlying emotional causes of distress, Bach Flower Remedies can help individuals cultivate a deeper understanding of their feelings and develop healthier coping mechanisms. The remedies work on the principle that emotional imbalances can manifest as physical symptoms if left unaddressed. By restoring emotional equilibrium, Bach Flower Remedies aim to prevent the progression of emotional turmoil into physical illness. They are typically taken orally in dilute form and are safe for people of all ages, including children and pets. The remedies are selected based on an individual's emotional state rather than the specific symptoms they exhibit, making them a highly personalized form of healing that considers the unique needs of each person. Overall, Bach Flower Remedies offer a gentle and non-invasive way to support emotional well-being, promoting harmony between mind, body, and spirit. After your session you will be provided with an intuitively selected Bach Flower Remedy Mixture. The mixture may be composed of up to 7 essences, which are preserved with a trance amount of Brandy, and mixed with spring water. Frequency not quantity is important. Take 4 drops 4 times a day until finished.*** No contraindications ***
