The Remedy & The Philosophy There is no physical part of the plant in the actual mother tincture, but the vital life force that was transferred from flower to water now contains the healing properties. This concept may be difficult to grasp as we often need to know the exact amounts contained in medicines, what their constituents are, and the exact effects on the physical being in order to believe medicine will work. An intangible idea such as energy may be a difficult concept to grasp, but it is the life force of the plant, and that energy that is part of everything, including humans, that is important. The spirit of the plant is transferred to the water. It can not be measured, analyzed, or labeled, as often is the case with chemical drugs. These remedies exist and heal by unblocking channels in our mind, allowing positive thoughts to flow and displacing the negative emotions. This mind cleanse is the ultimate cure to all illnesses which in turn brings harmony and inner strength to our lives.
Remedies for Animals To prescribe a remedy to an animal, the personality and the mood of the animal must be decided. Is the dog barking because he is afraid (Mimulus, Rock Rose), suspicious (Holly), dominant (Vine). Rescue Remedy can also be given in times of terror or shock, when going to the veterinarian, after an accident, or coming home from a fight.
Remedies for Plants The idea of treating a plant medicinally may seem odd and eccentric, but plants are living things with the vital life force and can also have negative emotional states. The mood of the plant can be interpreted from its physical appearance. Bach remedies are most often used to restore faith in plants after a repotting session.
Add 10 drops to the watering can and water all the plants. Remember that Bach Flower Remedies will only help if needed and can not harm those that do not. Another option is to apply to the treatment to the individual plant's water. |
