Bach Flower Remedies – Natural Emotional Support for both People and Animals

PictureBach Flower Remedies
The complete range made using the traditional 1930s methods of Dr Bach
Genuine Bach Flower Remedies – made the way Dr Bach intended

PictureDr Bach Flower Remedies are used to help gently address transient emotional and behavioural problems naturally. They were discovered in the 1930s by Dr Edward Bach.
Genuine Bach Flower Remedies are made according to the traditional and trusted methods developed by Dr Bach. We are also distinct in that we blend each individual stock bottle to the traditional stock concentration – direct from the ‘Mother’ tincture. Our Remedies are made the way Dr Bach intended & come from the birthplace of Bach’s Remedies.

Sarah-Jane has carefully chosen Creature Comforters as the supplier of her Bach Flower Remedies, Pet Blends and Peoples’ Blends as they are made to the traditional and trusted methods developed by Dr Edward Bach.  All Bach Flower Remedies, Pet Blends and People Blends sold by Pet Whisperer are made and bottled by hand – there is no machinery, no conveyor belts, no automated robots employed in the making of these Blends and Remedies!

Each and every bottle is made with dedicated care and attention.

 

Why use  Bach Flower Remedies for Yourself or Your Animals?

It is very few of us – and even fewer of our animal friends – that find ourselves successfully avoiding the emotional onslaught that life can often bring. Whether it be maintaining a sense of “self” in a difficult relationship, unfounded fears, low mood, loneliness, or a recent trauma, there are many reasons why we become out of kilter emotionally.  This impacts hugely on our sense of self and how we interact with daily living.

Dr Edward Bach identified 38 different Flower Essences to gently restore the balance between mind and body by casting out negative emotions such as fear, worry, hatred and indecision which interfere with the equilibrium of the being as a whole. The Bach Flower Remedies allow peace and happiness to return to the sufferer so that the body is free to heal itself.
The Bach Flower Remedies are made from wild flowers and are safe for the whole family to use including young children and animals.

Dr. Edward Bach wrote

  “Disease of the body itself is nothing but the result of the disharmony between soul and mind. Remove the disharmony, and we regain harmony between soul and mind, and the body is once more perfect in all its parts.”

“And may we ever have joy and gratitude in our hearts that the Great Creator of all things, in His Love for us, has placed the herbs in the fields for His healing.” “Heal Thyself by Dr. Bach”

Dr Bach wanted for us to be empowered to heal ourselves and be able to select the Flower Remedies that resonated with us the most.  Our animals will often intuitively self select what they need, when given the opportunity to do so.  For us mere humans who may have lost faith in our intuition, the process of self selection is made easier by reading the statements under each Flower Remedy – if they apply to you then that is the remedy you are most in need of.  If you are selecting for your animal friend, there are specific indications for animals under each remedy (remember that all indications may apply to either a person or an animal).

Should you find yourself agreeing with many of the statements/indications for either yourself or your animal friend, you may want to combine the different Flower Remedies to create your own blend.  You can safely blend up to 6 or 7 different remedies.

However, should you find that you are confused about what you or your animal friend needs or there are more than 6 or 7 remedies that resonate with you, you may wish to take advantage of our Personalised Prescription Service where Sarah-Jane will test all 38 remedies against you or your animal friend’s energy field, creating your own unique blend perfect for you and/or your animal friend (this usually works out less expensive than purchasing individual remedies – and you get the blend that is perfect for you or your animal friend!).
