Don’t fear the retrograde! Mercury is currently retrograde.

Ancient astrologers believed when Mercury was retrograde it was traveling through the underworld, uncovering hidden messages, lost intuitive insights, and higher truths.

For this reason, it was suggested to wait before signing contracts, booking travel, and making big life decisions when Mercury was in retrograde, as when Mercury eventually emerges with all these hidden messages, we would have a higher understanding of the truth and a new perspective on how to proceed forward.

Mercury Retrograde is a time to practice patience, to go within, get still, and clear the mental chatter.

When we work with this energy consciously we can notice our intuition heightened and our dreams more prophetic.

Forever Conscious

Have you noticed the shift in general awareness to the notion that what goes on with our physical health is often an outcome of our emotions? Dr Bach was not alone in recognising this over 90 years ago, Ancient Greek philosophers were of a similar mind.

I'm feeling optimistic (positive Gorse!) that Dr Bach’s insights in the 1920’s are now echoing into the medical world. Reading an interview on the weekend In The Times by Antonia Hoyle with Chatterjee, until recently a GP in the NHS, his enthusiasm and experience with patients is engaging and encourages more people to change their perception on how to manage their own health in a healthier way.

He said “80 to 90 percent of what we see as doctors is in some way related to our collective modern lifestyles” and that while medication can “at best” alleviate symptoms of conditions such as depression and chronic pain, “it doesn’t get to the root cause”. (Peeling the layers in Bach terms).

Dr Chatterjee goes on to say that "the number of prescriptions that we give out as doctors has increased by over 80 percent in the last 20 years". He also mentioned that while with any illness "of course there may be a physical cause, there's also a huge link between childhood trauma, highly stressful lives, anxiety and chronic pain, because your nervous system doesn't feel safe. So one way your brain deals with that is to generate pain."

For me, his words illustrate how Bach Flowers continue to be as important today as ever. No prescribing, no diagnosing. As advocates of Dr Bach’s legacy of the 38 Bach Flowers, we all have our own experiences of how the flowers have helped to recalibrate our thoughts and feelings and help us understand more about ourselves too. Whether as an independent system, or integrated with other allopathic or complementary modalities. The Bach Flowers are simple and effective self-help or we can reach out to a Bach practitioner if we want guidance on identifying the flowers that we need in that moment. We can even grow our own Bach Flowers!

What stories would you like to share on how Dr Bach’s work has influenced your life? What questions do you have about the Bach Flowers?🌺

Dr Chatterjee has a methodology, which includes daily exercise, healthy food, reflecting and breathing (also reminiscent of Dr Bach and Heal Thyself), for helping his patients to overcome their illnesses, and has written about this in his new book Happy Mind, Happy Life.🌺
