The Healing Bouquet: Exploring Bach Flower Remedies

The Bach Flower Remedies: A Perfect Balance Between Homeopathy and Herbal MedicineMany books on the Bach Flower Remedies are written by nutritionists, herbalists and practitioners of traditional Western or allopathic medicine. The Healing Bouquet has been written by Vinton McCabe, an educator with more than a quarter century of experience in homeopathy, and the author of seven books on the subject of homeopathy, health and healing.In this companion volume to The Healing Enigma, in which he explored and, ultimately, demystified the complex principles of homeopathy, McCabe now seek to place the Bach Flower Remedies within their natural context-that of homeopathic medicineAs the author comments, "We have to remember that Edward Bach was an allopathic doctor-and a highly successful one-who, after reading the writings of Samuel Hahnemann, began to incorporate homeopathic philosophy in his practice of medicine. His evolution as a physician ultimately lead him to close his medical practice in order to dedicate the last part of his life to the creation of a new pharmacy of healing tools, which today we call the Bach Flower Remedies. Given his background as both an allopath and a homeopath, the remedies he created are totally unique. They represent the perfect balancing point between homeopathic and herbal medicine."In The Healing Bouquet, Vinton McCabe fully explores the history of the Bach remedies, as well as the philosophy behind their appropriate use. He also explains Bach's own philosophy of healing, one that stresses the need for emotional healing and the role that it plays in physical health. More important, he gives in-depth portraits of the guiding symptoms for each of Bach's thirty-eight remedies, portraits created with insight, humor and an understanding of human emotions and behaviors that will allow readers to identify themselves and those who are part of their lives within these pages.
