essences are dilute extracts of various types of flowers and plants that are used
to treat animals and people. They are similar to homeopathic remedies in that
they are diluted and potentized to make them more effective than just using the
original flower as a herbal extract. The person who first developed
the original flower remedies was Dr. Edward Bach, a famous English physician.
He developed the Bach Flower Remedies when he was working as a homeopathic practitioner
and devoted the last years of his life to researching and developing his remedies,
from 1930 onwards. He wanted to find a simpler form of treatment that would not
require anything to be destroyed or altered. Dr. Bach believed that diseases
of the body come about as a result of imbalances or negativity at the level of
the soul, and by correcting the problem here healing would result and the body
would heal on all levels. The flower remedies act to balance inharmonies in the
emotional and spiritual body, and bring about gentle healing by bringing the body
back in balance with itself. They act almost as catalysts to cause healing. There
were originally 38 Bach Flower Remedies Dr. Bach felt would correct all imbalances
that were possible. For example, the remedy Holly heals the state of anger, and
open the heart. There are also remedies that deal with a variety of other emotions
from lack of confidence to over enthusiasm and impatience. Animals
respond just as well to Bach Flower remedies as people, and seem to have similar
emotional imbalances that can be corrected with the appropriate remedy. Flower
essences are a good choice for animals, especially when owners feel that there
may be an emotional part to the illness. It is a safe, effective and natural way
to help animal companions lead a healthier and happier life. In our animal
