Bach flower remedies have been growing in popularity as a natural remedy for emotional well-being. These flower-based essences are known to work on the mind-body connection, influencing the emotional state and helping to switch negative emotions to positive ones. In this article, we will delve deeper into what Bach flower remedies are, how they work, and how they can benefit you.
“Health depends on being in harmony with our souls.” Dr Edward Bach.
What are Bach Flower Remedies?
Bach flowers are natural remedies that were developed by Dr. Edward Bach in the 1930s.
Dr. Bach was a British physician who believed in treating the cause of the health condition and saw the emotional state as a contributor to the health condition. He discovered that certain flowers have specific healing properties and can be used to treat negative emotions.
How do Bach Flower Remedies work?
The remedies are made by putting the flowers (or twigs and leaves) in water and creating an essence by placing them in the sun or boiling and then mixing with brandy. The flowers’ healing properties are then transferred into the water, which is the essence of the remedy. These remedies work on the mind-body connection by influencing the emotional state, helping to switch negative emotions to positive ones.
Bach flowers are based on the principle that emotions and physical health are interconnected. Negative emotions such as stress, anxiety, and depression can cause physical symptoms such as headaches, fatigue, and digestive issues. By addressing the emotional state, they aim to restore balance to the body and promote overall wellbeing.
Each Bach flower remedy is associated with a specific negative emotion, such as fear, sadness, or lack of confidence. The remedy works by stimulating the body’s natural healing mechanisms and helping to overcome these negative emotions. When taken orally, the remedy is absorbed into the bloodstream and works on a subtle level to shift the emotional state.
Bach flower remedies are thought to work by restoring balance to the body’s energy system. Negative emotions are believed to disrupt the flow of energy through the body, causing blockages and imbalances. By addressing these imbalances, they help to promote emotional wellbeing and support the body’s natural healing processes.

Groups of Emotions
There are 38 different Bach flowers, each designed to transform a negative emotion into a positive one, and they are divided into seven groups based on emotions. The seven groups of emotions that Bach flower remedies can help with are uncertainty, despondency or despair, insufficient interest in present circumstances, loneliness, oversensitivity to influences and ideas, fear, and over-care for the welfare of others. By dividing the remedies into these groups, it becomes simpler to choose which Bach flower remedies can help you restore your emotional balance.
Specific Remedies
For example, if you’re feeling uncertain about the future or have a lack of confidence, the Larch remedy may be helpful. If you’re feeling overwhelmed and burned out, the Oak remedy may be the solution you need. Or if you’re struggling with fear and anxiety, the Mimulus remedy may be the perfect choice.
Crisis/Rescue Remedy
The most famous Bach flower remedy is the Crisis/Rescue Remedy, which many people use daily to help deal with stress, fears or sudden panic attacks. This remedy contains five flower essences: Rock Rose, Impatiens, Clematis, Star of Bethlehem, and Cherry Plum. It provides support at the time of high emotional demand, such as S.O.S. situations, and helps to restore emotional balance.
Suitable for Everyone
The Bach flower remedies are suitable for everyone, including children, pregnant women, pets, and even plants. They contain the flower essence blend with water and brandy, and they can be used alongside other natural medicine methods such as aromatherapy and herbal medicines.
