Bach Flower Remedy FAQs

Are the remedies safe?
Yes, you can’t do harm with these remedies. They are gentle and effective.

How do I know when to stop taking them?
The Bach Foundation says that when you forget to take your remedies, you know you don’t need them any more!

What’s the best way to take them?
If you’re taking more than one remedy, mix two drops of each in a 35ml dropper bottle and top up with pure water (ie not tap water). Then simply take four drops a minimum of four times per day – and much more often if you’re having a bad day. Take the drops on your tongue or in drinks, dab them on pulse points or put in your bath.

What kind of things do they help with?
Bach Flower Remedies work on your emotions, so they are good for any emotional feelings that are causing you problems. Obviously, physical conditions may need other types of treatment (including conventional medicine), but the flower remedies can always be used to help your mental attitude and your feelings.

It’s worth remembering that your uncomfortable feelings can be targeted no matter how long ago they originally occurred.
