BACH FLOWER REMEDIES: FORM & FUNCTION Julian Barnard
In the 1920s Dr Edward Bach, a physician and homeopath made his great discovery regarding the healing effects of flower essences. Intense and revelatory, his experiences in nature resulted in thirty-eight flower ‘remedies’. He described these as bringing courage to the fearful, peace to the anguished and strength to those who are weak. But the therapeutic effects of the remedies were never limited to emotional states. They are equally effective in the treatment of physical disorders. In this book Julian Barnard explores why this may be so. He describes how Bach made his discoveries and examines the living qualities of the plants in their context and how the remedies are actually made. He also recounts his own observations so that you can gain your own impression of the variety of ways in which the remedy plants grow – their gestures and qualities, ecology, botany and behaviour. The result is a remarkable trumpet call to attend to nature in a new way.
