Bach

'Disease will never be cured or eradicated by present materialistic methods, for the simple reason that disease in its origin is not material . . . Disease is in essence the result of conflict between the Soul and Mind and will never be eradicated except by spiritual and mental effort.'

Edward Bach


This morning I woke up in the same position in which I had fallen asleep. This is virtually unheard of for me. I am taking Bach Flower Remedies at the moment, specially formulated for me by Mother Tree. The first aim was for it to lessen my nightmares, which seemed to work as I haven't had a nightmare since (though this could be coincidental) and Priya has now added honeysuckle to help me sleep better in general.

Edward Bach had a bankground in medicine but started his new healing technique in 1930. He believed that early morning sunlight passing through dew-drops on flower petals transferred the healing power of the flower onto the water, so he would collect the dew drops from the plants and preserve the dew with an equal amount of brandy to produce a tincture, then further diluted before use. Definitely ground-breaking and unusual for his day.

I'll report back how I get on with Bach's flower remedies in the coming weeks.
