Flower
Essence Remedies
"Let
not the simplicity of this method deter you from its use, for
the further your researches advance, the greater you will realise
the simplicity of all Creation."
(Dr
Edward Bach, 1930)*
Let
me introduce you to Flower Essence Remedies:
the key word here is SIMPLICITY.
-
No need
for complicated prescriptions or masses of pills
-
No worries
about side-effects or interactions with either conventional
drugs or any complementary therapies.
-
Gentle
enough to be prescribed to babies, pregnant or nursing mothers,
invalids and the elderly.
-
Wonderful
for balancing mental, emotional and physical problems.
-
Powerful
enough to free energy blockages, bring out our positive qualities
and replace negative emotions such as fear with courage, hatred
with love and insecurity with self confidence...
Humanity
has used flower remedies for therapeutic purposes for thousands
of years. They have been used in many cultures through the ages;
from ancient Egypt and Australian Aboriginal traditions to Indian
and Native American medicine and Classical Greek Hippocratic practice,
continuing through the Middle Ages to the present time.
Essences
assisted me tremendously in my personal journey of transformation.
In this spirit I started offering them to my patients and even
after all these years I am still amazed and humbled by their potential
for healing. They are superior tools for change, emotional, physical
and spiritual, penetrating and incisive but altogether gentle
and comforting. Working with flower essences allows me to treat
a wide range of complaints from anxiety and depression to PMS
and even pregnancy
and infertility. In the last four years I have been researching
and creating the Healing Pond range
of essences, which I offer you exclusively here.
How I can help you with flower remedies?
-
Do
you have something whirring around in your mind?
-
Do
you feel out of sorts, "depressed", "low",
"flat", without energy or drive?
-
You
see, you
don't have to be "physically" ill to use flower
remedies.
I
can prescribe for you flower remedies either to address a particular
mental or emotional issue or even if you just feel there is something
wrong but don't know why!
And
since we all know that emotions can have negative results on our
physical body (think of the link between stress and heart conditions),
you may find that by addressing your "out of sorts"
emotions, your physical health will improve!

Bach. His company, Healing Herbs is dedicated to maintaining the

Bailey
Flower Essences:
Arthur Bailey has both a rigorous scientific background and an immense
love of nature. From the combination of this duality sprang the
Bailey Essences: a catalyst for transformation and change of deeply
seated states of mind and belief systems. Only when our old conditioning
and beliefs dissolve can we truly "come into the present moment"
and then move forward unfettered. There are individual essences,
a beautifully presented acupuncture kit as well as combinations
with evocative names such as "childhood", "anger
and frustration", "grounding", "confusion". |

Healing
Pond Essences:
Made
with Chalice Well water and developed as a result of a transformational
personal journey, the Healing Pond Essences are derived from combinations
of flowers, trees, gems, healing sounds and environmental energies.
They are named after their therapeutic qualities rather than their
contents. With names such as "Loving Hug", "Fortitude",
"Abundance" and "Exuberance", these essences
bring forth the positive qualities we need at the time in order
to overcome trials and triumph over adversity. There are ten stock
essences preserved in organic vodka, as well as living space sprays
incorporating delicate blends of rare organic essential oils. |

Indigo
Essences:
Beautiful crystal essences made in Ireland for children (and adults!),
they are a kind of "first aid kit for feelings" according
to Ann Callaghan, their creator: "Essences are like good vibes
in a bottle. They help balance your energy: when you are 'well balanced'
it's much easier to heal yourself". There are 12 combinations,
16 New Child and 10 New Energy Essences in stock bottles or pure
sprays, developed with children-users in mind (no irritants, artificial
perfumes or other nasties). |

(*)
Dr Edward Bach
(1886-1936) often seen as the father of modern flower essences,
studied medicine at the University College Hospital, London, and
went on to become well-known pathologist, immunologist, and bacteriologist.
After years working in conventional medicine he reached the conclusion
that it is much more important to treat the mental and emotional
attitude of a patient instead of his physical complaints.
He
went on to develop a complete system of healing with 38 flower
essences made with flowers and plants from the English countryside.
Within the range there are essences to treat: lack of self-esteem
and strength, weariness, exhaustion, impatience, despair, fear,
feeling over-burdened, uncertainty, sensitivity, and so on.
Bach Flower remedies are the most widely known around the world.
Although created in the 1930s the problems they address are timeless.
Perhaps the most famous of the Bach remedies is Rescue Remedy
used to treat the shock of accidents or sudden illness when the
patient feels frightened.
