Bach Flower Remedies


 

The Bach Flower Remedies is a quasi-homeopathic system of diagnosis and treatment developed in the 1930s by British physician Edward Bach (1886-1936). Bach put forth his philosophy in Heal Thyself: An Explanation of the Real Cause and Cure of Disease, first published in 1931. Within this theory, he described these five "fundamental truths:" 



  • Souls, invincible and immortal sparks of the Almighty, are the real "higher" selves of humans.

  • Humanity's purpose is to develop virtues and wipe out all intrapersonal wrongs. Souls know what circumstances are conductive to the perfection of human nature.

  • One's lifetime is a minuscule part of one's evolution.

  • When one's soul and personality are in harmony, one is healthy and happy. The straying of the personality from the dictates of the soul is the root cause of disease and unhappiness.

  • The Creator of all things is love, and everything of which humans are conscious manifests the Creator.


Bach held that disease was essentially beneficial and that its design was to subject the personality to the "Divine will" of the soul. Supposedly, he psychically discovered the specific healing effects of 38 wildflowers. The life force ("soul quality" or "energy wavelength") of each of these flowers allegedly is transferable to water and on to humans. Each of the so-called Bach Flower Remedies is a liquid that supposedly contains a "soul quality" with an affinity to a human "soul quality" and each vegetable "soul quality" allegedly harmonizes its human counterpart with the soul.

In Bach Flower Remedies, the bases of classical diagnosis are conversation and intuition. Administration of the remedies is usually oral; however, they may be external.
