FLOWER THERAPY FOR THE SOUL.

Flowers, we all know are capable of instantly uplifting someone's mood. A bouquet of fresh red roses, purple lilacs or pink orchids could lend a magical touch to an evening or a special occasion. Turns out, flowers can do much more. Bach flower therapy, developed by Dr. Bach in the 1930s, is a system of 38 flower remedies that correct emotional imbalances and replace negative emotions with positive ones. Says counsellor Dr. Prashant Pai, "Bach flower therapy uses the aroma of flowers to heal certain emotional disturbances and sometimes, flower extracts are mixed with other liquids, to create a concoction that can be consumed". Each flower has a specific remedy to offer. Rockrose helps overcome fright, sweet chestnut helps cure mental anguish and beech treats intolerance. However, says Dr. Pai, "The effects of the therapy can best be felt when it is coupled with proper counselling. The counsellor is able to diagnose the problem between and accordingly, give the right advice". Psyciatrist Dr. Harish Shetty says, "While Bach therapy helps cure emotional imbalances, it is not something a simple hug, kiss or walk around the park cannot cure".
