Plant-based Treatments: Flower Essences

How to Use Flower Essences
Dr. Bach grouped his 38 flower essences into seven categories, which he believed are common themes in all our lives:

  • Fear
  • Loneliness
  • Being over-sensitive
  • Sadness
  • Uncertainty
  • Lack of interest in life
  • Overconcern for others
Take a single flower essence by putting a few drops in your drink throughout the day. You can combine essences to make a remedy for a certain feeling or event, or to shift or balance a personality pattern.

You may not see any change—or you may notice that an issue feels less intense or more clear. You may need to use the flowers for a month or more to shift patterns. Keep them on hand to nourish your soul and balance day-to-day feelings.

Have fun with flowers! If "we are what we eat," why not include flower essences in our daily anti-stress "meal" plan? Flowers express love, creativity, and beauty.
