What are Flower Remedies for Your Emotional Wellness?
In the simplest terms, flower remedies are natural essences extracted from different types of flowers. The process involves infusing the flower’s unique vibrational energy into a carrier solution. Many of our products have a 20% cane alcohol solution in them. This is easily removed and you can learn how to do that in the post How to Take CBH Energetics Remedies.
Flower remedies, or flower essences, are not to be confused with essential oils, which are more concentrated and involve a different extraction process.
Flower remedies are believed to carry the healing properties of the flowers they come from. They work on an energetic level, targeting the emotional and spiritual dimensions of our health that often go unaddressed in conventional medicine.
In fact, CBH Energetics exists because Owner and Founder Samatha Stupak discovered her own energetic health with bioenergetic testing, through her struggle with Lyme disease.

Essentially, these extracts offer a pathway to inner harmony, providing a gentle, yet effective way of dealing with emotional imbalances that may lead to physical illness.
These remedies are usually taken orally but can also be applied topically or even added to bath water. They are typically safe to use alongside other treatments, making them a versatile addition to any wellness regimen.
History and Origins of Flower Remedies for Your Emotional Wellness.
Flower remedies have been used since ancient times, with early civilizations recognizing the healing properties of different flowers. However, it was Dr. Edward Bach, a British physician and homeopath, who pioneered the modern system of flower remedies in the 1930s.
Dr. Bach believed that physical illnesses were the result of emotional imbalances and that by addressing these imbalances, one could restore health. He identified 38 different flower essences, each corresponding to a specific emotional state. This system, known as the Bach Flower Remedies, is still widely used today.
The use of flower remedies has since spread around the world, with practitioners in various cultures discovering and incorporating local flowers into their practice. Today, there are hundreds of different flower remedies available, each with its unique healing properties.
How do Flower Remedies Work For Emotional Wellness?
The mechanisms of flower remedies are deeply rooted in the concept of vibrational healing, a principle that operates on the understanding that everything in the universe, including our bodies, is made up of energy.
When this energy is in balance, we are creating balanced health.
However, negative emotions, thoughts, or experiences can disrupt this balance, potentially leading to illness.
Flower remedies work by introducing the positive vibrations of the flower into our energy system to counteract these negative states. By matching the remedy to the emotional state of the person, it’s believed that the flower’s energy can stimulate the body’s natural healing abilities, restoring balance and promoting wellness.
Fun Scan Fact: while this concept is not widely accepted in conventional medicine due to the lack of empirical evidence, many people have reported significant improvements in their well-being after using flower remedies.
Is There Science Behind Flower Remedies for Your Emotional Wellness?
There are some promising theories and studies that suggest potential effectiveness of flower remedies for supporting positive emotions. One such theory is the concept of ‘water memory’, which suggests that water can retain the ‘memory’ or vibrational imprint of substances it has come into contact with.
This theory forms the basis of how flower remedies are believed to work. The water in the remedy is said to hold the energetic imprint of the flower, which is then transferred to the user when consumed.
Some studies have also suggested that flower remedies might work through the placebo effect, where the belief in the remedy’s effectiveness triggers the body’s natural healing response.
Either way, there is a positive response by the body.

Do You Need Caution With Flower Remedies for Your Emotional Wellness?
Flower remedies are generally considered safe and non-toxic. They do not have the same side effects as conventional drugs, and they can be used alongside other treatments. However, as with any remedy, it’s important to use them responsibly.
While flower remedies are typically well-tolerated, some people may have an allergic reaction to certain remedies and plants.
It’s also worth noting that since most flower remedies are preserved in alcohol, they may not be suitable for everyone. While you can burn off the alcohol, as noted in How to Take CBH Energetics Remedies, we honor that every client has different needs for their well being, including those that have experienced alcohol addiction.
Addressing emotional wellness can be done in many different ways, if flower remedies are not for you.
If you are experiencing mental health issues, please seek help from a licensed care provider. If you are in acute emotional stress, please call your doctor or visit your emergency department. As always, it’s recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new health regimen, including flower remedies.
