The Bach Flower Remedies are gentle, no second effects remedies that bring balance and improvement to our moods and states of mind. They do not treat physical problems but restore our inner wellbeing. Positive attitudes and feelings trigger positive response from our bodies; health is thus preserved or recovered swifter.
The mind and soul are responsible for our health.
Being himself extremely ill at a point in his life, Dr. Bach experienced the way the motivation and inner balance influence the recovery. He thought that it is the way we relate to what surrounds us - the way we respond and fell in a certain situation - that influences positively or negatively our body and recovery.
His theory is simple. I'm sure it's crossed your mind that our negative emotions like anxieties, worries, faults, may throw us off balance and prolonged exposure to them may eventually cause physical symptoms.
The 38 remedies help us regain those positive qualities we lost along the way under stress, in traumatic events or through mismanagement of our own personality.
The remedies heal the negative moods or character traits, and develop the positive qualities that are necessary to overcome the shortcomings so that we can enjoy health, fulfillment and harmony in our lives.

why flowers ?
Flowers!
Let's think for a minute how wonderful they are ! The delicate shapes, the vibrant colors, the enchanting perfumes ! Their shapes may vary from the smallest and simplest to the fullest and most elaborate, the color from the palest to the richest, the perfume to the faintest to the strongest. And so many of them may bring us such delight !
We experience such a sense of peace, relaxation and happiness whenever we contemplate and dive into the wonder of a flower.
They are meant to elevate our spirits and to remind us of the permanent beauty surrounding us. Ancient cultures talked of their beauty and resembled them to the stars. I can't recall where exactly I read this but I couldn't forget it: " Flowers are for the earth what stars are for the sky. " That is, pure enchantment and wisdom !
Not only that they elevate our spirits with their presence but they also provide useful remedies for treating various physical or emotional unbalances.
At the beginning of the last century, after years of research Dr. Edward Bach - British medical doctor and bacteriologist, 1886-1936 - selected 38 flowers that can help us better cope with life's challenges and improve our personality traits.
