Flower essences, aka flower remedies, are a subtle, energetic, healing solution that helps balance your emotional well-being. They are organic, water-based tinctures made from sustainably harvested wildflowers and are safe for adults, children, expecting mothers, pets, and everyone in-between.

Flower essences work through the various human energy fields, which influence your mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Often referred to as "vibrational", when you take a drop of the essence, your energetic field, or aura, receives the essence of the flower. The flower essences gently restore the balance between mind and body by casting out negative emotions. They stimulate positive feelings within us so that the body is free to heal itself.

Flower essences are beneficial for many emotional conditions, including fear, uncertainty, loneliness, and sadness, or despair. Dr. Bach believed that healing negative emotions helps the body heal itself. His system contains 38 essences which address a specific negative emotion from fear and worry to indecision.

Dr. Edward Bach was an English medical doctor and bacteriologist who shared homeopathy's view that the body could heal itself. His idea was to identify plants that might relieve the emotional and mental problems, which he saw as the real cause of disease. In the 1930s, Bach developed a healing system consisting of 38 flower essences made from flowering trees and plants' blooms. Each essence deals with a particular emotional state or personality aspect that he felt made up the human condition. They were designed to help a person balance a specific mood or emotion. Since Bach believed illness occurs when the mind and body aren't in tune with each other, his thought was that if we could be happy within ourselves, then we would be healthy in mind and body.

Flower essences contain no chemicals or active ingredients like those found in medicinal drugs; therefore, it is impossible to overdose on essences. Taking more is not necessarily better; you will not obtain a stronger or quicker effect if you take more than the recommended dose. The essences work best over some time, and its the quality that counts, not the quantity.

If you take an essence that isn't right for you, it won't do anything. The essences only work from an energic level, and because they don't have adverse side effects, it won't make your emotional state worse.

Take four drops, four times daily under the tongue or in a glass of water. SOS can be taken more often if needed.

A 30 ml bottle should last one month if taken correctly.

No, flower essences are not the same as essential oils. Flower essences and essential oils are very complementary to each other in healing work. While both affect the mind-body spectrum, they work from opposite pathways. Essential oils enter through the senses to reach the soul, while flower essences impact the soul's subtle energy fields to affect physical well-being.

Flower essences are safe and natural for children. Children tend to respond very quickly to flower essences because they don't have years of unresolved emotional imbalances.

The dosage for children and adults is the same.

Studies have found that flower essences have no adverse side effects. Each remedy does what it's supposed to do. If you are experiencing what the essence supports, it will often work so well you won't even think about it. If you aren't experiencing an emotion of what the remedy helps, it won't do anything. Many of the essences contain tiny amounts of alcohol. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your doctor.
