How to use Bach Flower Essences

A question came up today about the difference between FeelBach! custom blended formulas and just using the individual essences.

While we are putting the complete explanation on the web site, I thought I'd clarify one point here, because we've heard that some people who sell flower essences are letting their customers spend more money than necessary.

When you purchase any of the 38 individual essences, you don't need to use them full strength. It won't hurt you if you do, but it isn't necessary. In fact, for a one month supply of treatment, you need only 2 drops from that 20ml bottle. You can mix up to 6 essences in one 30ml (1oz.) mixture bottle - although we recommend only 3 or 4.

Here's how it works: Your mixture bottle is first filled 3/4 full with spring water, then 1/4 with brandy, leaving just enough room for 2 to 12 drops of flower essences. Used properly, that bottle will last you a month.

Since one 20ml bottle holds more than 300 drops, at 2 drops per month it would last you over 13 years!

I think you'd be better off with the custom blend, myself.

Here's to good health,
