Igniting Soul Fire: Spiritual Dimensions of the Bach Flower Remedies [Paperback]

Gaye Mack (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: May 31, 2004

Edward Bach's discovery of the vibrational healing properties derived from the quintessence of particular plants - the famous Bach Flower Remedies - is now the basis for one of the best-known alternative medicine systems in the world. Gaye Mack now shows that Dr Bach's system of healing is wider ranging than has been demonstrated. Dr Bach was a true mystic and healer, and his system is one that profoundly and psychologically heals, and thus is one for healing today's society. A bacteriologist who practised homeopathy, Bach meditated deeply on the causes of illness. His studies led him to believe that personalities fall into 'soul-types', and that an awareness of these can permit the subtle application of specific remedies to aid soul-growth. Mack reconstructs this theory of soul-types for the contemporary user and shows how, through careful attention to the twelve 'Great Healers' among the remedies, the seven 'Helpers', and the nineteen final remedies, we can face our emotional dragons and generate major change in our selves. The end result of using the remedies in the fullest way is not simply healing but transformation: igniting soul fire! The author has unique experience both sides of the Atlantic working with the Bach remedies, having studied with a number of principal Bach practitioners. Out of Bach's writings and her own experience, she extracts a deeper formula linked with both the chakras and the zodiac. The beginner will find a newer, fuller Dr Bach in this book; the practitioner will be taken further in his or her studies.
