MY APPROACH TO TEACHING BACH FLOWER REMEDIES
IN MY VIEW AS A NATUROPATH THE BACH FLOWER REMEDIES ARE PART OF AN OVERALL THERAPEUTHIC PROGRAM WHICH ENHANCE OTHER THERAPIES.
THEY ARE, OF COURSE, EFFECTIVE IN THEIR OWN RIGHT, AND THERFORE CAN BE STUDIED INDEPENDENTLY TO OTHER THERAPEUTIC MEASURES.
MY APPROACH AS A TEACHER IS TO GIVE A COMPREHENSIVE AND PRACTICAL OUTLINE OF THE REMEDIES INCLUDING THEIR PREPARATION, BLENDING, PRESCRIBING, SOME BOTANICAL BACKGROUND, REPERTORY, HANDS-ON- EXPERIENCE WITH THE REMEDIES THEMSELVES, ETC.
SINCE THE REMEDIES TREAT EMOTIONAL STATES AS THE CAUSE FOR DISEASES THERE IS NEED TO DO SOME SOME SELF-REALIZATION PROCESS, WHICH IS DONE THROUGH OPEN DISCUSSIONS IN THE CLASSROOM, INTERVIEWING STUDENTS IN FRONT OF STUDENTS, AND ANALYZING THE INFORMATION RECEIVED.
THE DEPTH OF THE GATHERED INFORMATION WILL DETERMINE THE DISCUSSION AND TREATMENT OF THE SAME STUDENT OR CASE AND INCREASE THE LEVEL OF OF THE STUDENT’S KNOWLEDGE.
IN THE COURSE THE STUDENTS LEARN TO BE THERAPISTS BY TAKING CARE OF THEIR FELLOW STUDENTS AND BY BEING PATIENTS THEMSELVES.
SINCE DR. E. BACH HAS REPEATEDLY STATED THAT HE WISHES THIS METHOD OF THERAPY TO BE AVAILABLE TO EVERYBODY EVEN WITHOUT ANY PREVIOUS MEDICAL EDUCATION I KEEP THE LESSONS ON A VERY MATTER-OF-FACT LEVEL WHICH GIVES THE STUDENTS THE NECCESSARY TOOLS AND CONFIDENCE TO WORK WITH THE REMEDIES, ENJOYING THEIR SIMPLICITY AND THEIR GREAT EFFECTIVENESS ON EVERY LEVEL.
IF A STUDENT WANTS TO GET DEEPER INTO THE THERAPEUTIC APPLICATIONS OF THE REMEDIES HE HAS THE TOOLS TO DO SO AND SHOULD CONTINUE TO STUDY SELF-AWARENESS COURSES, PHILOSOPHY AND OTHER THERAPIES OFFERED BY ANY INSTITUTE.
