Bach Flower Essences and Animals
Our pets have emotions too. They feel fear, anger, jealousy, and
depression just like us. The Bach Flower Essences are able to help
our pets when they have negative emotions just as they help us when we
are emotionally out of balance. Unfortunately, we are not able to ask
our pet why it acts depressed, but we do know if it misses a friend
or gets overly excited around new people.
Check out "Bach Flower Remedies for Animals" by Stefan Ball & Judy Howard.
Also check out the "Kit for Pet Lovers" which includes everything you need for your pet.
You should contact Bill Kiesselbach at bill@incentiveman.com for more information. You can also read his
article "Bach Flower Therapy for Parrots" here: http://www.nd.edu/~kkiessel/plucking2.html.
The following is a list of some common Bach Flower Essences that can be used as remedies for common emotional imbalances in pets:
Rescue Remedy: This combination of 5 Essences is a "must have" for all pet owners. It is excellent when taking the pet to the vet, after a trauma, when the pet is "not quite well," or after an accident.
Chicory: For a pet that is in constant need of attention.
Chestnut Bud: For at pet that can not learn from past experiences and keeps repeating the same mistakes over and over again.
Crab Apple: Being a cleanser, this Essence purifies wounds. It also helps when a pet keeps licking itself obsessively.
Mimulus: For pets with fear of known things, such as, strangers, sounds, new places, the vacuum cleaner, other animals etc. This includes shyness.
Holly: For animals that are jealous either of other animals, a new baby or other people.
Honeysuckle: For a pet that can not get over the loss of a friend.
Olive: For a pet that is exhausted and lacks energy.
Star of Bethlehem: For an animal that has been through a traumatic experience, such as being attacked by another animal, being lost, being abused, having moved to a new place, having lost a loved human companion, having been in an accident or other similar traumatic experiences.
Vervain: For animals that are hyperactive and always on the run.
Walnut: When changes are happening or when there needs to be a change in habits. This Essence help the pet adjust to a new environment, new people or any other situation where there is a change or a need for a change. This Essence can also help a pet that is being affected by its humans companions feelings and emotions. Walnut protects the pet from our negative energy.
