About the essences

With so much going on around us, it’s easy for our hectic lives to take over at times. Bach^™ Original Flower Remedies help balance your emotions and fulfil your potential.

What are the Bach^™ Original Flower Remedies?

The essences were developed in the 1930s by Dr Edward Bach, a physician and homeopath who believed emotional harmony was the key to good health. By 1936 he identified 38 flower essences, each one derived from a different wild flower, plant or tree, and each corresponding to a specific emotion.

Dr Bach categorised the essences in seven groups to help people choose the right one for them.

• Face your fears.
• Know your own mind.
• Live the day.
• Reach out to others.
• Stand your ground.
• Find joy and hope.
• Live and let live.

Dr Bach believed the complete system, which captures the positive potential of the plants it's created from, offered a holistic approach to achieving emotional balance. The system is designed so essences can be tailored to meet each person’s individual needs, whether taken individually or in combination.
