Amazon.co.uk Review
Though people have known about the healing powers of plants for centuries, it was not until the 1930s, when Dr Edward Bach established his 38 flower remedies and five-flower Rescue Remedy, that flower essences became a mainstay of mordern alternative medicine. Whether you have no idea about this history, or a keen follower of the Bach way,
Flower Essences: An Illustrated Guide will be a welcome addition to your bookshelf.
Arranged alphabetically by latin name, each plant's entry includes notes on usage, actions, applications and supporting techniques; case studies detailing past uses; as well as details and pictures of the plant itself, any relevant folklore and an affirmation to use in conjunction with the remedy.
Comprehensive introductory chapters detail the history of flower essence remedies, how to make and use them at home and how they work, and how Dr Bach influenced their usage. There is also a chapter on the mystique behind the aura. Great for anybody interested in alternative, holistic healing, this book is packed with information and delightful to read. --Lucie Naylor
