He honors the pioneering work of the past and details the developments that are hallmarks of the field’s present. Dr. Bach discovered the first 38 flower essences in his work to alleviate the root cause of disease, which he found to be a split between one’s personality and soul. In advancing this work, Dalton details how to use and make flower essences, including how to store them to maintain potency. He gives methods for determining the action of new flower essences, including plant attunement, reading the elemental energy of each plant, and observing flower structure as it relates to the chakra system. Sharing his in-depth interview process, the author explains how to review a client’s past and present stresses, traumas, emotions, behavior patterns, and physical imbalances to create a full clinical picture and determine which essences to use. He shows how to select and combine flower essences based on the client’s need for support and grounding and their readiness to process past experiences. He shows how to target thoughts and behaviors for change, how to move stuck emotions, how the body processes stress and trauma, and how to release trauma and triggering shadows with flower essences. Elevating Dr. Bach’s work for modern needs, this book develops flower essence healing into an advanced system for a healthier life.
