Agrimony Bach Flower Remedy
is for people who keep their troubles hidden behind a facade of cheerfulness and good humour. Their friends are often the last to know that anything is wrong. Sometimes Agrimony people may take drink or drugs in excess to enable them to maintain their facade and they tend not to like being alone because they find it harder to keep the mask up when they are forced into their own company. Agrimony helps people to accept and come to terms with the darker side of life and their own personalities, so that they can become more rounded human beings.

Beech Bach Flower Remedy
was described by Dr Bach as the remedy for people who feel the need to see more good and beauty in all that surrounds them. People in a Beech state are intolerant of people who are not just like them. They lack compassion and understanding of the different circumstances and different paths that other people are given, and fail to see that others have different ways of working towards perfection. Sometimes this intolerance is manifested as outbursts of irritability: Beech helps to encourage tolerance and understanding, and as this happens so the irritability also fades.

Centaury Bach Flower Remedy

Centaury supports the development of courage and self-determination so that they are better able to be themselves, free from the demands of others.

Chestnut Bud Bach Flower Remedy
is for people who fail to learn the lessons of life. They may repeat the same mistakes over and over again - for example, taking a succession of identical jobs and having the same dissatisfaction each time, but continuing nonetheless.
They give so little thought to the past that they fail to learn its lessons and so are doomed to repeat their failures. Chestnut Bud is the remedy to help them learn from the past and then move on to genuinely new experiences.

Chicory Bach Flower Remedy
people are full of love and care for their families and friends. But they feel slighted and unnecessarily hurt if they don't get it back with interest. Also, their great love can lead them to hold onto their loved ones and try to keep them dependent and close to hand. This can stifle the development of other personalities, or simply drive them away. The positive side of the Chicory state is love given unconditionally and in freedom.

Clematis Bach Flower Remedy
is for people whose minds drift away from the present into fantasies of the future, or into alternative versions of the present. Often their dreams are of great future success, creative endeavour and achievement, but the danger for people in this state is that their dreams will remain fantasies because the Clematis person is not sufficiently anchored in reality to make them happen.

Crab Apple Bach Flower Remedy
is known as the remedy for cleansing. Its main use is to help people who feel that they have something unclean or poisonous about them, or who dislike some aspect of their appearance or personality.
