HANDBOOK OF THE
BACH

REMEDIES
Keats Publishing, Inc. New Canaan, Connecticut
This book is respectfully dedicated to Nora Weeks and
Victor Bullen, the Jachin and Boaz of the Temple of Healing
that Edward Bach brought into being. Together, these dedi¬
cated disciples worked for the fulfilment of Dr. Bach’s
prediction that: “This method of treatment is the medicine
of the future, and it will spread through the world.” May this
wondrous, spiritual, system of healing that Edward Bach
discovered and Nora Weeks, together with Victor Bullen
propagated, continue to prosper under God’s blessing until
that day when the Tree of Life shall yield its leaves for the
healing of the nations.

PREFACE
Tffls handbook is a compilation of material from many
sources. Much of it is taken directly from The Bach Remedy
News Letter with the kind permission of Nora Weeks who
publishes it from the Dr. Edward Bach Healing Centre in
England.
The Editor was granted permission to use and adapt the
material according to his judgement. It has been freely
drawn upon without reference to authorship, except where
quotations are indicated. The Editor, however, assumes full
responsibility for any errors or contradictory opinions that
might appear in the text.
He wishes to thank Miss Weeks not only for her generosity
in allowing him to use the material from the News Letter^ but
especially for supplying him with a great amount of unpub¬
lished case histories from the records of The Dr. Edward Bach
Healing Centre. Although a very busy person, she was never
too busy to give of her own good counsel, or to furnish special
information when the Editor required it. Indeed, without
her wholehearted cooperation, this handbook could never
have come into being.
The Editor also acknowledges with thanks, a special debt
of gratitude to Rosaleen Spiesse. She most generously gave
of her time, not only to make invaluable editorial sugges¬
tions, but to painstakingly correct the orthographic errors in
the typescript.
This work represents a cooperative effort. It is the hope of
those who contributed to that effort that the book will be a
fitting tribute to the memory of Dr. Edward Bach, and to the
system of healing he discovered and perfected while he was
on earth. Since his death thirty-four years ago, the healing
work has gone forward and increased. It is aiding suffering
humanity throughout almost all of the civilized world, even
as he prophesied it would.

The simple and natural method of healing through the
personality, by means of the essence of wild flowers, dis¬
covered by Edward Bach, m.b., b,s., m.r.c.s., l,r.g.p., d.p.h.
(CAMB.).
“Let not the simplicity of this method deter you from its
use, for you will find the further your researches advance, the
greater you will realize the simplicity of all Creation,’’
“Take no notice of the disease; think only of the outlook on
life of the one in distress.”
“Final and complete healing will come from within, from
the Soul itself, which by His beneficence radiates harmony
throughout the personality when allowed to do so.”
Edward Bach
