Bach Flower Remedies Review and Giveaway

About Bach

Over a period of years Dr. Bach found 38 healing flowers and plants that with the right preparation became the 38 Bach Flower Remedies. These Remedies are enough to remove all negative emotional problems. The Bach Flower Remedies are a safe and natural method of healing. They gently restore the balance between mind and body by casting out negative emotions, such as, fear, worry, hatred and indecision which interfere with the equilibrium of the being as a whole. The Bach Flower Remedies allow peace and happiness to return to the sufferer so that the body is free to heal itself. They are made 100% naturally from spring water infused with wild flowers, either by the sun-steeped method or by boiling. The Remedies are hand produced exclusively in England. The Remedies contain 27% grape based brandy as a preservative. Or the alcohol free versions are preserved in glycerin made from sunflowers.

Why I LOVE Bach 

Let me start off by saying that I have not found anything I dislike about Bach. Their remedies (though stamped with an expiry date) never seem to expire. They are safe for your pets to use (including fish and birds!). You cannot take too much of  Bach Flower Remedies, but since they work so effectively I never take more than what is recommended anyhow. I love that I can take it as often as I want, which is very often as I get stressed way too easily. Bach makes so many products, none of which have been a disappointment. With 38 remedies, they seem to have something for everything/everyone.

I got to try out a handful of Bach products that interested me most.


The first product I had the pleasure of trying was the Bach Rescue Remedy Spray. It is the most famous of the Bach remedies, but in fact is not ‘a remedy’ at all. Instead it’s a blend of five different Bach Flower Remedies. I have to say that it has been my favorite Bach product, ever. I love how two spritzes on my tongue makes all of my worries go away. Well, maybe not all of them, but it does help calm me down. Even in times I feel I am about to have a panic attack. I used to buy this spray all the time when I had a job. It really helps cope with the annoyances of dealing with customers. This mix was created by Dr. Bach to deal with emergencies and crises – the moments when there is no time to make a proper individual selection of remedies. It can be used to help us get through any stressful situations, from last-minute exams or interview nerves, to the aftermath of an accident or bad news.




My sweet pup, Paddington is an amazing dog, but he gets stressed out a lot. I blame myself as I am always on an emotional rollercoaster. The Bach Rescue Remedy Pet has really helped him out. I put a drop or two on a treat and give it to him right before I take my own dose from the Rescue Remedy Spray. I was skeptical on how this would work for pets, but it does! I was totally shocked the first time. I now give Paddington a few drops before leaving the house, as he has a touch of separation anxiety, as well as a few drops before going on a car ride. He isn't scared of being in cars, in fact, it is the exact opposite. He just gets so hyped up, anxious on getting to go somewhere. When I say "Let's go for a ride" he gets so stoked, spinning in circles and barking at me. Too cute! (until you are in the car, trying to listen to music and not get hit by crazy drivers) This spray really helps him with SO many different problems. I learned that pets can take the human versions as well, but as the Pet variety is Alcohol-Free, it is more suitable for them to take that version instead. Rescue Remedy Pet also works wonders for animals that are impatient, fearful, have been through a traumatic situation, have fear of thunder and fireworks or do not feel themselves.



I am really enjoying the Bach Rescue Pastilles. I love the tin canister and how it functions, but not as much as I love the Pastilles themselves. I got to try the Black Currant flavor. The taste was very good, and the Pastilles were fun to eat. They get to work pretty quickly, although perhaps not as fast as the spray. (duh)
This variety is NOT suitable for animals.



OMG! I love these products! The Rescue Sleep Liquid Melts seem to work almost instantly. I don't take them every night (although I probably should). They really work wonders. I take one capsule when I cannot seem to get my brain to shut off while laying down for sleep. The Rescue Sleep melts quiet my active mind, and help me fall asleep. I love that they are non-habit forming!

The Rescue Pearls are perfect for anytime of day. They dissolve quickly, and taste like oranges! It is alcohol free, non-habit forming, and fast acting. I love that it contains 4 drops of the Rescue Remedy.
