Bach flower remedies: a melodious name for liquid extracts of plants that have a positive effect on so-called negative emotions. It was Dr. Edward Bach who gave his name to this medicine that he discovered at the beginning of the last century.

For more than 70 years, these floral extracts, also known as floral elixirs, have proven their benefits for all kinds of emotional problems in children as well as adults. But what are these Bach flowers really, how to choose them and especially how to use them? Follow the advice of your pharmacist to enjoy all the benefits of these Bach Flowers daily.

The choice of an elixir or several elixirs is based on a current emotional state. However, be careful not to use more than 5 different flower essences at the same time (some authors limit the number to 7 at the same time). You can choose yourself or get help.
