CONSEQUENCE OF BACH FLOWER ESSENCES

Most of us love flowers. Everyone knows something or other about flowers. Many knew that flowers are used for medicinal purpose
to cure physiological problems, but only few knew that the same flowers have an impact of PSYCHOLOGICAL ASPECTS. Mathaji
has given us a comprehensible and defined portrayal about these flower remedies in her book.

Every emotion has a corresponding chemical reaction. Different kinds of neuropeptides are released during different emotional state.
Chemical reaction takes place in the hypothalamus of the brain & it releases complex amino acids (neuropeptides). These chemicals not
only found in the brain, but also found in the immune system, endocrine system & throughout the body. The functioning of all the
systems of the body including the immune system is affected by these neuropeptides.
