A combination of five English flower essences first developed by Dr. Edward Bach, promoting calm and balance in diverse situations of stress, emergency, and trauma.

The Five-Flower Formula™ is praised throughout the world by health practitioners and lay persons. The formula of five different flower essences was developed by Dr. Edward Bach in the 1930s through his own practice and observation. Over the years it has come to be regarded as a “rescue” combination for its remarkable ability to address emergency and crisis conditions.

Prepared in rural England by renowned teacher and naturalist, Julian Barnard of Healingherbs, Ltd., the formula is made according to the original directions of Dr. Bach. True to Bach’s original intentions, it is not prepared or labeled as a homeopathic remedy. It is available either preserved with organic and Biodynamic® grape alcohol, or with organic vegetable glycerin.

Not sure which variation to choose? Alcohol is the ideal preservative for flower essences and is recommended for most people. The amount of alcohol is small, much less than a piece of fruit. Choose glycerin if you are strict about avoiding alcohol, sensitive or allergic to alcohol, or for children (it tastes sweet!). A glycerin remedy has a shelf life of 14-24 months versus an alcohol extract with a shelf life of 5+ years.

Spray vs. dropper: They are equally effective, so it's just a matter of personal preference. The nice thing about the spray bottle is that it is easier to take—you don't need to fiddle with a dropper bottle, so there is less of a chance of spilling it. The advantage of the dropper bottle is that it's more versatile--you can easily add Five Flower Formula to baths, body care products, or beverages (four drops is all you need for any of these applications).
