Seeking the sun, a flower grows in a most natural way, harboring seeds
for regeneration-new life. But if we could ingest a flower's life-force
(or "essence"), what curative effects might we feel? In search of an answer,
Dr. Edward Bach (1886 - 1936) wandered the English countryside. By tasting
dewdrops on the petals of wildflowers, he experienced healing on an emotional
level. This, after all, is where he felt most "dis-ease" was rooted.
Dr. Bach wasn't the first one
to explore the curative effects of a dewdrops on a flower. Phillipus Paracelsus,
a 16th-century Swiss-born  alchemist,
as well as the aborigines, were aware of the healing properties of dewdrops
on flowers. But Bach developed new methods to impregnate water with a flower's
vibrational energy in order to produce ample amounts of these natural remedies
for his patients. By combining his scientific background, highly sensitive
nature and deep attunement to nature, he also was able to decipher the
specific issues that 37 flowers addressed. He also prescribed rock water,
which is spring water in its purest form, bringing his repertoire to 38
remedies. The fact that his work is now being practiced worldwide 63 years
after his death is a testament to its validity. Since then, extensive research
with hundreds more flowers have been conducted worldwide. |
