What are Flower Essences?
Edward Bach was a London pathologist, bacteriologist, and physician whose clinical experience showed that the cause of illness is linked to emotions. His research indicated that a positive state of well-being could be achieved through the energies found in flowers, bushes, trees, and special waters. He created the first flower essences in the 1930s. You may have heard of Rescue Remedy, a blend of five of his 39 essences, that can help calm both people and animals, especially in traumatic
situations.
Flower essences are created by placing a flower or part of a plant in water, placing it in sunlight, and allowing the water to take on the vibrational energies of that aspect of the plant. They work on a mental, emotional, physical and spiritual level. If you can bring your pet’s body back into balance, called homeostasis, then behavioral or physical issues have the ability to be improved or resolved.
