Dr Bach passed away peacefully on the evening of November 27th, 1936. He was was only 50 years years old, he left behind him several several lifetimes' experience and effort, and a system of medicine that is now used all over the world.
Dr Edward Bach studied medicine at the University College Hospital, London, London, and was a House Surgeon there. He worked in general practice, having a set of consulting rooms in Harley Street, and as a bacteriol bacteriologist ogist and later a pathologist he worked on vaccines and a set of homoeopathic nosodes still known as the seven Bach nosodes.
He wrote 22 books which remain as best sellers in the area of Flower remedies

Edward Bach: (1886-1936).. During his medical training he noticed that Mental and Emotional Conditions
Influenced

Dr Deepak

He concluded . . .
That the mind and emotions played an important role in process of disease and cure 12/26/2011
Dr Deepak
7
After completion of his medical training and branching in to Bacteriology««.
He identified
7 major types of personalities.
He now began to study closely the mental and physical differences of these 7 types which he had identified. . .
12/26/2011
Dr Deepak
8
Each
type of personality had its own distinct specific intestinal flora, indicating that
intestinal flora not only mirror physical health but also have an affinity with the type of personality and its major mental / emotional tendencies .

The new theory was accepted readily in the early 20s and pointed that
Intestinal
toxemia, that is caused by non-lactose fermenting organisms are the leading cause of chronic diseases. 12/26/2011
Dr Deepak
11
Accordingly Bach Bowels Nosodes (based on personality traits) were administered to cleanse the system from within and help body ward off symptoms of chronic diseases. Intestinal
Toxemia
Chronic disease
While studying the responses he was increasingly convinced that true origin of disease lay in Mental and Emotional imbalance with the intestinal toxemia arising there from.
Mental imbalance
12/26/2011
Intestinal
Toxemia
Dr Deepak
Ch. Disease 12
He felt his current theory neglected this important aspect. Instead of concentrating on the mind as a causative factor, the Nosodes were recognized and used toward cure of physical diseases alone.
He
Finally Formulated the theory
That all chronic diseases start in the mind and emotions, unless obvious external factors were responsible 12/26/2011
Dr Deepak
13
He felt that much physical suffering
could be prevented if Remedies akin to the Nosodes were found that were prescribed on mental / emotional characteristics thereby preventing physical symptoms.
12/26/2011
Dr Deepak
14
Search intensifies . . . Took inspiration from Homoeopathy and made changes in his method-
Moved
away from syringes to pill form of administration of medicines.
Moved
away from usage of Nosodes (made from diseased product) to natural healing plant for healing 12/26/2011

He abandoned his use of Nosodes completely and concentrated his efforts in identifying the foremost mental/ emotional imbalances found in man while collecting and researching possible corresponding healing plants . He was able to identify 12 outstanding states of mind or 12 personality types basic to humanity. He integrated the earlier 7 types of personalities that he had identified initially in to his new perspective. 12/26/2011

Helpers
Over years he identified 7 more additional states, which complimented the basic 12. He named them ³Helpers´ or those that are complementary to the core 12 states.
12/26/2011
Dr Deepak
19
Whereas the 12 Healers address major parts or personality traits Helpers deal with long standing states of mental and emotional suffering that have become entrenched in the character as a whole and have begun to over shadow the true personality. Helpers not only help mental states but also temporary upsets.

Few Cases Ten-year-old
boy This is a case I like to mention when giving talks on the remedies, since it illustrates the physical effects of being out of balance so clearly. It is the case of a ten year old boy who could not get out of his home without having a bad bout of diarrhoea. It was found that this condition had started a little after his father had an almost fatal car accident, and had to spend a couple of months in hospital. I gave him Star of Bethlehem for the shock, and Aspen for his general state of apprehension and dread. Chicory was his type remedy, shown by the fact that he wanted his father all to himself, and was always seeking attention and bossing his brother around. I also gave him Larch to help him regain his confidence. Within a very short time he started to feel better and was soon living a normal life again

New mother
was introducing the remedies to a µmother-to-be¶ who was becoming very temperamental high irritable and had a sharp tongue which her family feared during the last stage of her pregnancy. She lived in a remote area and, at her request, I went to meet her. I
This was P¶s first baby. It seemed that she was very irritable with everyone around her and found herself shouting and becoming difficult to be with. Nobody could do anything to satisfy her and she was in a hurry for the baby to arrive so that she coul d get on with her life. I
felt that Impatiens was the only remedy needed.
It
happened that two days later the weather forecast was pretty grim and it seemed that heavy rains were on its way. The hospital decided that P should admit in at once, otherwise it might be difficult for travel to hospital when her labour started. Once she was in the hospital the staff there decided to induce the birth. But each time the day came for the procedure to start another pregnant lady arrived at the cottage, in full labour, who obviously had to be seen to first. Day after day went by and in the end it was a full ten days before the staff could get around to inducing her baby. How did this impatient, irritable mother cope with the delay? Her family, the nursing staff, and P herself, were absolutely amazed at her patience and good humour. She laughed each time another mum was brought in, and she was pushed once more to the back of the queue. They praised her, and she became a talking point amongst the staff. She told them her secret - IMPATIENS! 12/26/2011

Common Question and Answers
How
does one use a remedy? Drink it? Sniff it? Apply it to the skin? The remedies come as a liquid, preserved in brandy. To take them, you dilute two drops of each remedy that you need into a 30ml dropper bottle, top up with mineral water, and take four drops four times a day. Alternatively you can put the two drops into a glass of water, and sip from that at intervals I know that is correct to put maximum five remedies in t he same bottle. But I want to know what is the right thing to do if someone needs more t han five remedies? Is it right to put the extra remedies in another bottle and take them alternatively? What do you suggest? In fact it's quite usual to give six or seven remedies together at the same time, and this is the maximum we suggest people work with. Dr Bach is known to have given nine remedies together on two occasions, but remember he was seeing thousands of people over a period of many years. What is the likelihood of reactions and rashes, eg to Star of Bethlehem, Crab Apple, and how are they caused? The Bach Flower Remedies work by flooding out negative feelings and emotions. Sometimes the emotions that are dealt with have been repressed for some time and in order to clear them they have to be cleansed from the system. On very rare occasions this can take the form of a rash, or unexpected feelings may be stirred up. Where such things do occur they can be disregarded and there is no reason to stop taking the remedies.

Common Question and Answers
Can you take Bach Flower R emedies in tea, coffee and so on? You can put the remedies in tea, coffee, fizzy drinks etc., and in t his respect they are not like homoeopathic remedies.
I would like to know if I can place the remedy drops into hot drinks without destroying their healing properties. Yes, you can put the drops into hot drinks - water, tea, coffee etc. This will not affect the potency of the remedies, and because the heat will evaporate the alcohol in the remedies it is a method we sometimes recommend to people who for one reason or another dislike the alcohol content
Are there any combinations of remedies that should never be used? No. Even the remedies that might appear to be direct opposites (Vervain and Wild R ose, for example, or Vine and Centaury) may occasionally be needed at once by the same person. It all depends on the personality and current emotional states of the person being treated I get so confused how many drops to take out of different sizes of bottle. Help!
You always take two drops out of a single remedy stock bottle, whether you are putting it in your mouth or in a glass or in a treatment bottle. You always take four drops out of Rescue Remedy, again whether you are putting it in your mouth or in a glass or in a treatment bottle. And you always take four drops out of a mixed treatment bottle. Simple! 12/26/2011
