Bach Flowers: Self-healing

Do you believe in alternative medicine? If you don’t, just wait to read this personal confession.


Two years ago, I had to face one of the hardest moments in my life –I’m not going to provide the details, because I do not consider it appropriate— so, I was encouraged by my friend, Fernanda, to try alternative medicine in order to deal with the depression I was going through. From this situation, I was introduced to the world of Bach Flowers.


Basically, Bach Flowers are dilutions of flower material, which were developed by an English bacteriologist, Edward Bach, intended for emotional and spiritual purposes. It is said that Bach classified 38 flowers from which he extracted 38 different essences. These essences are supposed to contain the vibration or energy of the flower which can be transmitted to the person who tastes it, leading to self-healing.

In my case, after an interview with a practitioner of this field, I was given an antidote made of 5 different essences and I was told to take five droplets each day for a month. At the very beginning, I hadn’t noticed any change –honestly—but then, when the time passed by, I felt somehow different, but I’m unable to explain those feelings with words. I just simply recovered the energy I used to have, I didn’t feel hurt anymore and finally I was in peace with myself.





What do you think of my experience? Would you try this kind of alternative medicine?
