    In England during the 1930's, Dr. Edward Bach developed Flower Essence Therapy. This healing therapy captures the vibrational essence of whole flowers in pure water by using sunlight and fresh air.

    Trained as a medical doctor, Dr. Bach came to believe through his practice that certain negative emotional states of people seemed to correspond with certain diseases, and that homeopathic treatments were better able to help the mental state of the person than could traditional medicine.

    To understand how flower essences work requires a recognition that the human being is more than a physical body, but also incorporates a "body" of life energy, a "body" of sensitivity and feelings, and a spiritual essence or Self. Flower essences are energetic imprints of the life force of plants which interact with these subtle bodies of the human being, and evoke specific qualities within us.

    Generally, flower essence therapy is designed to help people work with mental and emotional issues. By studying the form and function of flowering plants, Dr. Bach was able to determine a corresponding relationship to various mental and emotional states in people.

    He found that the vibrational essence of certain flowers resonates with these mental and emotional states, so if you administer the appropriate flower essence a person can rectify personal patterns of imbalance in their lives, replacing negative mental and emotional states with positive ones and curing or preventing disease.

    Over the course of many years work, Dr. Bach was able to identify 38 flower essences which are still being used today. They cover a whole range of emotional and mental states such as trust and confidence, tolerance, patience, spiritual surrender, selfless love, joyous service, etc.

    There are many websites where you can get more information, such as The Original Bach Flower Essences and the Flower Essence Services who have gone on to develop a number of additional flower essences using the same techniques as Dr. Bach. Over the years there are many people who claim to have benefitted from this therapy.

    The understanding of the Unity of all things: that the Creator of all things is Love, and that everything of which we are conscious is in all its infinite number of forms a manifestation of that Love, whether it be a planet or a pebble, a star or a dewdrop, man or the lowest form of life.
