This book is a thorough, straightforward guide to the Bach Flower Remedies and how to both use and understand them. It is written in the language of our time, while still retaining the timeless clarity of Dr. Bach's work. The Bach Flower Remedies are a simple and natural method of healing, which works with the emotional state of a person rather than physical illness. They act to harmonize and balance the personality, to counteract such things as irritation, fears, and guilt which Dr. Bach saw as the real cause of illness and unhappiness.
