Dr Bach's Seven Groups

Dr. Bach divided his 38 Bach Flower Remedies into seven different personality groups; each group
representing the differing ways a particular thought pattern or emotion could be seen and
experienced in the personality.

The Seven Personality Groups...

Fear Group

 Cherry Plum
 Rock Rose
 Red Chestnut

Fear is possibly the most common human emotion and affects most of us in some way or another.
The five remedies in this group represent the different ways that fear can influence our behaviour.

Loneliness Group

 Heather
 Impatiens
 Water Violet

The three very different remedies in this group describe the various ways that we can behave when
we feel isolated and separate from those around us.

Uncertainty Group

can be experienced.

Lack of Interest Group

 Wild Rose
 White Chestnut
 Olive

Each of the seven remedies in this group is a description of the different ways in which those who are
in some way reluctant to fully take part in life can behave.

some way lost our connection with the higher purpose of our lives.
