Why do we fall ill?

During last millennium’s first decades, western naturopaths pointed out negative emotions as the main cause of illness – which is nothing but the consequence of a prolonged stress. They believed that the manifestation of an illness is nothing but the desperate effort of the “vital force” within our body to defend itself against the negative effects of such emotions. This same idea was confirmed during the course of the years by scientific studies, which have emphasised the importance to keep our mind calm in order to prevent illnesses. To fulfil this purpose, it is possible to make use of natural methods like the Bach Flower Remedies or other flower essences.
