Bach Flower Agrimony - 20ml

A remedy for people who keep their troubles hidden under a mask of pleasure and happiness. The archetypal Agrimony person would be the sad clown, suffering anguish inside by still the life and soul of the party. Their friends are often the last to know that anything is wrong in the Agrimony person's life.

Sometimes Agrimony people turn to drinking or drugs to help them maintain a mask of happiness, and they tend not to like being alone since they find it harder to keep the mask up when they are forced into their own company. Instead they will seek out friends, parties and bright lights. Only at night when they are alone with their thoughts will the mental torture they have repressed so successfully come back to haunt them.

Agrimony is given to help Agrimony people to accept and come to terms with the darker side of life and their own personalities, so that they can become more rounded human beings. They will not lose their sense of humour, but they will laugh at their troubles to dispel them, rather than laughing to hide them. As a mood remedy, Agrimony helps anyone who is trying not to face a trouble and using jokes and witticisms and smiles to avoid a painful reality.

Dr Bach's description
The jovial, cheerful, humorous people who love peace and are distressed by argument or quarrel, to avoid which they will agree to give up much. Though generally they have troubles and are tormented and restless and worried in mind or in body, they hide their cares behind their humour and jesting and are considered very good friends to know. They often take alcohol or drugs in excess, to stimulate themselves and help themselves bear their trials with cheerfulness.

How The Flower Remedies Work
The Bach Flower remedies work by subtly restoring balance to negative emotions i.e. stress, depression, fear. By simply taking two drops of the appropriate remedy they assist with restoring equilibrium.

For immediate use for passing moods, simply take two drops of the remedy of your choice from a stock bottle either by mouth or in a glass of water. This can be sipped at intervals until symptoms improve. For longer term use, up to seven remedies of your choice can be added to a 30ml dropper bottle, topped up with mineral water. From this four drops can be taken at least four times a day.

-The remedies can be taken as often as needed, and there is no chance of over-dosing, if they are not needed they will not work.
-The remedies are not affected by taste or smell and can be taken in any hot or cold beverage of your choice.
-Please note that the stock remedies are preserved in alcohol. Dilute the remedies or use them externally when this is an issue.

About Dr. Edward Bach
In 1934, Bach wrote the following concerning the way his Flower Remedies work:

"They cure, not by attacking the disease, but by flooding our bodies with the beautiful vibrations of our Higher Nature, in the presence of which, disease melts away as snow in the sunshine. There is no true healing unless there is a change in outlook, peace of mind and inner happiness."

Dr. Edward Bach, was a Harley Street Physician, who also studied bacteriology, immunology and homeopathy during his career. He realized that people reacted differently to illness, so he wanted to treat the person as a whole rather than what they were suffering from. Dr Bach became dissatisfied with orthodox medicine and was convinced there must be a system of healing based purely in nature. In the late 1920s he gave up his lucrative Harley Street Practice and spent many years searching for and developing his new system from non-poisonous plants and flowers.

Dr. Bach moved to Sotwell in Oxfordshire in 1934, where he lived in a small house there called Mount Vernon. It is there that he discovered the last 19 of 38 remedies in the garden and surrounding countryside. After the discovery of the 38 remedies, Dr. Bach announced his work was complete.

He died in 1936 knowing that he had completed his work by devising a simple self-help form of healing covering all aspects of human nature's moods.

Mount Vernon, is now theBach Centreand his trustees still collect and prepare the plants for the mother tincture in the same simple way as Bach intended.

The Bach system is made up of 38 healing plants addressing the different states of mind. The remedies help the physical body to gain strength and assist the mind to become calm, widen its outlook and strive towards perfection, thus bringing peace and harmony to the whole personality.

Bach's Philosophy

• A healthy mind is the key to recovery, and the Bach Flower remedies work by gently restoring balance to negative emotions.
  
  


• The key is to cure the personality, because different personality types react to illness in different ways and how they cope with it. The Flower Remedies deal with the personalities i.e. treating the patient and not the disease.
  
  


• Everyone had a purpose in life, but often got lost on the way. The Flower Remedies help us to become our true selves and that we will in turn rediscover our true purpose in life, health and true healing would then follow shortly.
  
  


• Dr. Bachintended the Bach Flower Remedies to be a simple self-help measure available to people from all walks of life.
