Healing Herbs has always believed, like Dr Bach himself, that self-knowledge is key to a better outcome. This means understanding how, why and when you react to life changing events.
This online guide is not intended to replace group or instructed learning, however, we thought it beneficial to provide a self-guided learning programme available to all.
Not everyone has the time or money to attend residential or distance learning courses, nor know how involved they want to be with the Bach flower essences.
If Bach flowers are a bewildering mystery then begin at Part One. However, there is nothing stopping you from dipping in and out of the programme wherever you choose or best suits your level of understanding.
This easy-to-follow programme follows the Healing Herbs policy of self-directed learning free at the point of use.
You will be prompted throughout the programme to study the plants and visit their habitat to better understand what the different essences mean for you and how they might be relevant to your needs.
There will be questions designed to test your understanding, short videos explaining how the essences work, and audio recordings offering thought-provoking insight as to relevance and significance.
Throughout the programme we will direct you to Healing Herbs where you can find lots of helpful information, and also Bach Educational Resource where you will discover a wealth of useful material.
Although this is not a certificated course, it is a programme that allows you the freedom to enquire and reflect in a manner that best suits you.
