Mechtild Scheffer expounds the work of Dr Edward Bach, explaining that the true origin of many bodily weakness resides in the soul. Feelings or behaviour which are unrecognized or suppressed can result in psychological disorders which are subsequently expressed as illnesses. This is the conclusion which Dr Edward Bach reached after many years of research, thereby coming to the discovery of therapy through flower essences and blossoms. Mechtild Scheffer extends and deepens Dr Bach's work, becoming the first to propose a complete interpretation of the 38 flower remedies from an integrated spiritual, psychological and paramedical point of view. Furthermore, she has regrouped the symptoms into lists which facilitate diagnosis. The current edition has been completely updated and includes a brand-new list of symptoms associated with each of the different flowers.
