Review of Bach Flower Remedies for Children: A Parents' Guide (Paperback)

I have always had my homeopathic remedies made by a pharmacy and was skeptical of remedies that could be purchased at a store.Well, when all else failed to work for me, I decided to try the Bach remedies and they worked!From there, I branched out into treating our cat and also my children.

This book is easy to understand and use.As most Flower Remedy books do, it starts with a short introduction.From there, it goes on to list the remedies alphabetically and to explain which sort of child would benefit.In a style that reminded me of Waldorf School educators, the author also included a short story to be told to the child related to their personality type.Very interesting.

At the end, there is a chart listing the remedies and the conditions each one can treat.This is a very useful reference.This chart differs from the chapters because it also lists physical problems, as well as emotional personality.For example, I looked under pimples for my daughter.Of course, Bach thought that physical problems all had emotional or psychological roots to begin with.

This is a book that I will consult over and over again.It is very well done.
