You can’t heal your body without balancing the mind. So many of us struggle to deal with the daily stresses of life. Many of us deal with a myriad of emotions daily. As our feelings come and go quickly, our body and its systems can cope. However, when our emotions linger, our body can and often does struggle. When this happens, we may need a little something to help us balance these emotions. Bach Flower Remedies and Aromatherapy / Essential Oils work well for Emotional Healing. Both are wonderful for assisting individuals to keep their emotions balanced and cope with the daily stresses of life.
When our emotions are in check we are able to focus and concentrate with ease, as well as achieve a more restful sleep. With the connection of the mind and body, what the mind feels emotionally often affects how the body feels physically. I believe that when you are sick, there is almost always an emotional component to it. Since our emotions can impact on our overall health, they should not be ignored. Balancing our emotions should become a natural part of our wellness routine.
Bach Flower Remedies – What are they?
Dr. Edward Bach developed Bach Flower Remedies or Bach Flower Essences. Dr. Bach was a physician, bacteriologist, and homeopath who lived in England. He had extensive knowledge of homeopathic medicine and was one of the first individuals to connect the body with the mind. His focus was not just on the physical symptoms of disease but also on the emotional components. Dr. Bach noticed during his practice that even though his patients received the same treatment, not all of them responded in the same way. He attributed the difference in their response to the individual’s emotions.
An Emotional Component
He felt so strongly about the emotional components of disease that he developed a set of 38 essential flower remedies or flower essences. The flower essences he developed are still the cornerstone of all the flower essences in today’s market. He was a true pioneer! Flower essences are a form of homeopathy that captures the healing properties of nontoxic trees and plants. The essences are made by placing the plant part in water and then setting them out in the sun to be instilled. Their primary purpose is healing and promoting the balance of the emotional self.
During his research, Dr. Bach identified seven leading negative emotional states. These states are
- Fear
- Uncertainty
- Lack of Interest in Present Circumstances
- Loneliness
- Over Sensitivity to Influence and Ideas
- Despondence or Despair,
- Being Overly Concerned for the Welfare of Others
Dr. Bach grouped his flower remedies based on these seven states to influence one’s emotions. The Bach Flower Remedies do not work in any biochemical way, making them extremely safe. They work energetically. The flower remedies or essences seem to capture the energetic imprint of the plant’s life force in the water. This imprint is what brings the balance back to our emotions.

What is Aromatherapy
Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils to balance or unify the physical, psychological/emotional, and spiritual processes. When these processes are in balance, they can promote the body’s innate healing. Aromatherapy and using essential oils for emotional healing isn’t new. Essential oils have been around for thousands of years. Throughout the bible and history, using essential oils was common for many reasons. Essential oils have been used for emotional healing and balancing, to ward off the Black Plague as well as in aromatic baths to promote healing and detoxification. They are well known for being used to create perfumes as well as many other personal care products.
Essential Oils for Emotional Healing
Essential oils come from the aromatic parts of plants. These volatile aromatic oils contain the plant’s life force energy. They are extracted from the roots, seeds, flowers, resins, woods, bark of trees, and peels. Each oil possesses a different chemical component, giving it its unique properties and benefits. Aromatherapy is all about the smell or aroma of an essential oil. The interaction of the body’s sense of smell is what makes the oils so influential and beneficial.
Emotions and Our Sense of Smell
Our body’s sense of smell is amazing and is our most impactful sense. The journey begins through our olfactory system. The olfactory system breaks down scents into molecules and sends this information directly to our brain. One of the areas of the brain that receives this information is our limbic system. The brain’s limbic region can influence responses that relate to our emotions, behaviors, feelings, learning, and memory. Our sense of smell makes aromatherapy and essential oils for emotional healing so effective. They work wonderfully to influence one’s mood, emotions, and specific physical concerns and behaviors. Using essential oils via inhalation can effectively balance or influence our feelings. It’s absolutely amazing how powerful our sense of smell is.
