Bach Flower Remedies was developed in the 1930’s by a homeopathic physician named Dr Edward Bach. Dr Bach devoted his time to researching the effects of different plant and flower essences on the healing and regulation of different emotions. He believed that emotional health and wellbeing was key to optimal physical health. His studies showed significant results with plant medicine bringing restoration and healing to emotional health.
Rescue Remedy is a form of homeopathic medicine. Homeopathic medicine is a form of alternative medicine that utilizes natural substances prepared in certain ways and given in a specific way to bring a person to optimal physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. The thing I love most about homeopathic medicine is that it is an incredibly safe form of medication because it utilizes small amounts of plant medicine for every dose.
Bach Flower Remedies has I believe 38 different plant and flower essences that each work on different emotional difficulties and complaints. I highly recommend you check out the website to learn more about all of the Bach Flower Remedies.
Rescue Remedy for Anxiety
Rescue remedy is a form of plant therapy that Bach Flower Remedies offers. This is the remedy that I have personally used and continue to use to this day. Rescue remedy contains 5 different flower essences that work together to combat stress, anxiety and irritability. This can be work stress, basic life stress or any stress. Rescue remedy is also used to help individuals navigate major life changes and periods of trauma and or shock. You can read more about it here.
I found rescue remedy to be a crucial part in my healing from anxiety, panic and DPDR. There were months that I used this product every day! For me it really took the edge off of my anxiety and my panic and I feel like it gave me what I needed to cope and to heal. I still use this product if I ever get anxious, for me now, I only get anxious occasionally when I am driving but within a minute of using Rescue Remedy, I feel the calming and grounding affects.
Rescue Remedy = Great Complimentary Therapy
Rescue Remedy used alone I believe could be effective enough, but if used as a complimentary therapy to talk therapy, EFT, Yoga, somatic practices, EMDR, CBT, TRE, etc in my opinion is the way to go! This is such a great complimentary form of therapy that in my opinion will expedite your healing.
I always recommend that you do your own research and consult with your healthcare provider before beginning any new treatment. Homeopathic medicine is incredibly safe and found to be really effective so I encourage you to do your own research and give Rescue Remedy a shot if you are suffering from anxiety, panic, life stress, major life changes or if your just dealing with anything that is impacting your mental health in a negative way.
Products and Dosing
I have personally used the drops, pastilles and spray forms of Rescue Remedy and my favorite by far is the spray for its ease of use and convenience. I’ve found that its much easier to just grab the spray and pump a few sprays on my tongue using one hand vs. having to drop a certain number of drops into my mouth using both hands. I also found the spray was more convenient than the pastilles because you don’t have to wait for the pastille to melt in your mouth and I wasn’t really fond of the taste.
For dosing the product always refer to the medication label. All Rescue Remedy forms are clearly labeled with proper dosing instructions.
Let me know what you think!
Have you ever tried Rescue Remedy before? I would love to know what you think about it and how it worked for you!
