Bach Flower Remedies training in Denver.

The Bach Flower Remedies are a system of 38 flower essences developed by Dr. Edward Bach (1886–1936), an English physician and homeopath. Each essence is prepared from a specific flower (or in a few cases, a tree or shrub) by a specific method — the sun method or the boiling method — that, in the Bach tradition, transfers the energetic signature of the flower into water. The resulting essence is preserved in brandy and used in tiny doses (typically a few drops, several times daily) for emotional and personality patterns rather than physical symptoms.

Bach's central insight is that the 38 remedies map systematically onto thirty-eight specific emotional patterns — Mimulus for known fears, Aspen for unknown fears, Rock Water for self-rigidity, Pine for self-blame, and so on — organized into seven groupings (fear, uncertainty, lack of interest in present circumstances, loneliness, oversensitivity, despondency or despair, overcare for others). A trained Bach practitioner identifies the specific patterns at work in a client's current emotional landscape and recommends a custom combination of essences drawn from the 38.
