The definitive guide to treating animals with the world-famous Bach Flower Remedies

How to help animals with Bach Flower Remedies
Bach Flower Remedies are 38 plant- and flower-based medicines that are used to treat negative emotional states, such as fear, hatred, jealousy and so on. Millions of people all over the world use the remedies to help themselves. And nearly as many use them to help their animal friends as well: this is the first book that deals specifically with the latter use, and it is long overdue. We have tried to write a book that will be complete and authoritative. We have therefore drawn on case studies and insights supplied by accredited Bach practitioners around the world, as well as contributions from animal behaviourists and vets. The result is a book that we believe will help animals and the people who care for them to understand each other better; our hope is that the quality of life of both will be improved as a result of that improved understanding.

A thorough book for both novices and those familiar with remedies for people
A very well thought out and laid out book a must for anyone wishing to explore the use of Bach Remedies for animals, clear and easy to follow this book will be revisited time and again as I learn more about these remedies and their uses

Excellent - very comprehensive, logical and easy to digest
I am a pet sitter, and Reiki therapist working primarily with animals, and only had a very limited knowledge of the Bach Flower Remedies. I was interested to learn how some of my more challenging charges might be further helped by the Bach remedies.

The book was really easy to read and very logical, especially for a novice, like me. I found I was able to think about some of the animals I look after and work out what would be best for them, including my own cat. As well as details on all 38 remedies and how they apply to animals, there were also some useful sections on animal behaviour (essential, so that we don't mix up human emotions with animal ones), and a number of case studies that helped you to see the decision making that people applied when treating animals with difficulties.

It's a work of reference I will be using very regularly from now on. Excellent!
