Dr Edward Bach (1886 - 1936) wrote: "Disease will never be cured or eradicated by present materialistic methods, for the simple reason that disease in its origin is not material . . . Disease is in essence the result of conflict between the Soul and Mind and will never be eradicated except by spiritual and mental effort." |

RESCUE REMEDY
Rescue Remedy is a combination of five remedies designed specifically to help balance life’s ups and downs. Use Rescue Remedy in any emergency, great or small, for great sorrow, for some sudden bad news, after any accident, whether severe or inconsequential, after an accident regardless of its nature, there is always some emotional experienced. The sufferer may experience shock, fear which can amount to terror or panic, desperation with its consequent numbing effect, or confusion. To relieve the victim’s fear, and to restore his calm and confidence is of paramount importance to both his present and his future well being. The Rescue Remedy has no ill effects yet it is quite capable of saving a human life pending the arrival of a qualified physician. In a major emergency, remember that the Rescue Remedy is a potent first-aid measure; it cannot supplant skilled medical treatment and it was not designed to do so.
Rescue Remedy’s gentle action assists the return to a positive outlook when comfort and reassurance are needed, particularly at times of emotional demand; before a driving test, interview, exam or flight or when you simply need a little help.
If the patient is unconscious rub it on the lips, on the gums, behind the ears and on the wrists. The Rescue Remedy can also be applied to external injuries. It can be used to bathe a painful area; it can be used as a cold compress or hot fomentation, use six drops to 500mls of water.
