Chestnut Bud: January Bach Flower
As we reflect upon the New Year, Chestnut Bud could be a very supportive essence for you. We all go through life repeating patterns of behavior, unconsciously. We can feel as if we are continually making the same mistakes over and over again and finding ourselves stuck repeatedly in the same situations. Chestnut Bud types can also be plagued with learning disabilities, unable to take notice of many things, feeling blocked from certain things registering. One might feel absent
Vervain: February Bach Flower
When we become indignant about an issue, or sense an injustice has occurred and fire off comments, it can herald a campaign has begun. You may feel a righteous anger that is fueled by frustration and passion. There is courage in being a rescuer, willing to fight for a cause, resolve a wrongdoing and make a positive difference. However, the intensity of your will and strongly held opinions can drive people away if you become too zealous and opinionated in expounding your views
Holly: December Bach Flower
“Deck the halls with boughs of Holly,” let us remember the deeper healing message of Dr. Bach’s Holly flower essence, challenging all of us to extend our heart forces to embrace the wide circle of humanity and all sentient beings on Earth. Intense emotions will cause the mind and body to be polluted by emotional toxicity that is self-generated, fueled by our own seething negativity. The heat of these emotions are experienced from the news, in sibling rivalry, peer pressure je
Walnut: September Bach Flower
Have you ever had one of those days where the dark cloud seems to descend from nowhere and you find yourself depressed but don't know why? In this dense Mustard state we wear our gloom like a heavy cloak, wrapping ourselves up and closing off the world. You have no interest in what is going on around you and any vestiges of energy are focused inwardly. You may ascribe your feeling to a seasonal change into wintery weather, as the absence of light is a reflection of your exper
Flower Essences, Much to My Surprise
Chris is a guest blogger and has been a Flower Essence client for the past two years. Her post discusses her apprehensiveness to Flower Essence Therapy and the positive outcomes she experienced. I started with Shirley and the Bach Flower Essences thinking that this could not possibly be helpful. How could flower essences help me on my journey, which at the time I started, was a difficult and at times a very dark journey. First, I can't believe 2 years have gone by, and second
Walnut: September Bach Flower
It makes such a difference to us if we feel protected and safe. Particularly so when we are going through challenging times that potentially leave us open and too sensitive to the changing situation. That is when external influences and ideas can take us off our path and we risk being swayed by others. There are many stages in life where there is a transition point to negotiate, and some of these moments you will find easier to handle than others. Among them are teething, sch
Pine: August Bach Flower
Objective acknowledgement of one's faults is an important soul virtue; when taken to an extreme, one can suffer from undue guilt and shame. We can berate ourselves, "I should have", "I could have" or apologizing to others for everything that may go wrong. We can get stuck in self-blame. At times, a real circumstance from the past may result in deep feelings of regret and remorse. The Pine type, however, often feels guilt which is disproportionate to the actual events. These

Beech: July Bach Flower
There are few of us who do not at times feel critical. It can be a temporary mood or a personality trait where we have fixed opinions and can appear intolerant, arrogant and unsympathetic. Over time, this begins to create internal pressures on ourselves and outbursts of irritability. Many of us often become critical because we have grown up in an environment of criticism and harsh expectations. We can inwardly feel vulnerable and insecure. Beech can be transformational for
