Essences for times of stress
In today's fast-paced world, stress and anxiety have become commonplace. From demanding work schedules to personal challenges, it's easy to feel overwhelmed at times. That's where Rescue Remedy comes to the rescue. Developed by Dr. Edward Bach in the early 20th century, this remarkable essence has been a trusted companion for those seeking emotional balance and calm in the midst of life's storms.
Dr. Edward Bach was a visionary physician who believed that the emotional state played a pivotal role in one's overall health. He dedicated his life to exploring the healing power of nature and developed a unique approach to holistic healing known as Bach Flower Remedies. His journey led him to discover 38 specific flower essences, each addressing a particular emotional state.
Bach Rescue Remedy, often referred to simply as “5 Flowers” or "Rescue Remedy," is a blend of five of these Bach Flower Remedies. It was created to provide immediate relief in times of acute stress, anxiety, and emotional turmoil. The five remedies in this combination are:
Rock Rose: Eases panic and extreme fear.
Impatiens: Alleviates impatience and irritability.
Clematis: Combats feelings of unconsciousness or spaciness.
Star of Bethlehem: Addresses the shock and trauma of unexpected events.
Cherry Plum: Helps manage feelings of extreme tension and irrationality.
