2 CHAPTERS FROM MY BOOK TO SHARE WITH YOU

INTRODUCTION
“Health Depends On Being In Harmony With Your Soul” Edward Bach

I was brought to flower remedies through trauma. I never expected it to be the life altering plan

for my future. We know plants and flowers bring beauty, but I would have never believed that it

can have such a powerful effect on our mental and emotional health as well. It took me from the

depths of anxiety and sadness and brought me back to who I am, no more anxiety or sadness and

found my purpose. Everyone needs to have a purpose in their life. That is when I knew I had to

learn more and tell others - especially moms to “Go Beyond What We Know,” that we do have

the power, and the resources to take control of our family’s mental health. It all makes perfect

sense doesn’t it? If we have been given all we need for food, for shelter, why wouldn’t we be

given a source for health as well from our amazing earth?

When you incorporate a given “diagnosis” with what we inherit from family, environmental

effects, trauma from before birth and on and all the unknowns, it feels like it does take a village!

When I work with a client, many share their doctors’ “diagnosis” with me. The way I work and

the way you will work with this book is by looking at each symptom individually, if there is a

known cause, then find the right remedy blend using different remedies. This plan works

whether you feel it’s a symptom related to “autism” or not. I am sure that not only your child on

the spectrum may have behaviors that you would like to see reversed, but also your other

children, or you, or your partner. No one gets to go through this life untouched by trauma or

challenges.
My goal with this book is to help you rejuvenate your mind, body, and spirit and that of your

family using plant medicine (aka “flower remedies”). Most will see and feel positive thoughts

and notice positive enhancements in your relationships, your family, and your home in a very

short time once your begin using the flower remedies. They will help bring out your personal

best, calming the negative, the fears, the anger, the disconnectedness, the frustration, the

relationship challenges adults and children struggle with. It brings you back to the true person

you were before the negative thoughts, feelings and behaviors found their way inside your mind.

You’ve found ways to help yourself and your child physically. This is the missing piece, a

powerful piece, to move you and your family back to harmony.

You will see the amazing transformations in the many videos we have on our site or on YouTube,

where clients discuss their struggles with intense anxiousness, sadness, feeling stuck, child

behavior challenges, simple confidence, bedwetting, tantrums, grief, even assault. You will see

just how my clients, many coming to me when traditional medicine did not help or out of

desperation, used these flower remedies to return to themselves. I am consistently amazed at the

power of the flowers!

Although the power of flower remedies is not well known throughout the U.S., they are used as a

part of daily life throughout Europe, and in the hospitals of Brazil. I am working hard to educate

and teach people all over the U.S. the power of using these extracts to help stay in a positive state

of mind, or return back to it. I also teach this healing modality in a course specializing in

emotional and mental wellness. The goal is to help raise awareness on their intense health benefit

and make this an intellectually accepted healing modality.

What flower remedies do is bring out the most positive person you are, the true person you are.

They take you from feeling scared (imbalanced) to empowered and courageous (balanced): not

because it’s changing your personality but because it is who you truly are! Take the stories in this

book seriously, get excited about where the remedies can take you, and be ready to move

forward, helping yourself and your family feel your most positive, peaceful, joyful, successful

way. Use this book as your guide. The goal is to help you choose the correct flower remedies to

reverse specific negative challenges that affect you, your child, and your family.

What are flower remedies? They are extracts created by plants and flowers. They have no scent,

they are liquids created through the plant, water and energy, the heat and power of the sun. It is

“energy healing,” and scientists are learning more about energy medicine and how it affects our

bodies health and wellness. There is plenty to read on this subject.

You should also know, I am not paid by any of the producers in this book. I recommend these

specific remedies because I work with them with all my clients and they produce excellent

results. When I teach others to become Practitioners specializing in emotional health and

wellness, these are some of the brands of remedies they will be using. If you interested in

learning more about this, send an email to amycohen@StrongestMinds.com to learn how you

can become part of the alternative health movement and community specializing in emotional &

mental health and wellness.

The first client story I share with you in the book was also my very first client. It was a true eye opener
and WOW moment and a sign I needed to learn more! I share her story with you, in her

words, to see how she helped me to see that these remedies were bigger than all of us and God
had a plan much bigger than I ever saw - and that is to get this out to you.

Warmly,

JOANNE’S STORY

(I shortened and changed names for confidentiality but will find full letter on my site)

“I would like to tell you all about a real live miracle that has happened to my family. I have two

boys, both with special needs. One is eight, and since the age of three has been treated for bipolar

and ADHD with no results. My other son is seven and is on the spectrum. By the age of three,

my older son was hospitalized in a children’s psychiatric unit. He continued to get hospitalized

several times a year for the next four years.”

“Doctors told me that his case was one of, if not the most severe case they had ever seen. No one

wanted to treat him. They marked him as an ‘untreatable child.' He tried to take his life several

times over that course claiming ‘people were telling him to.'

“I was lost and devastated. My son could not be trusted with others or left alone for a second. We

went through several schools, doctors, therapists, and specialists, and he just kept getting worse

and worse until my biggest fear came true. I was told the only option left was residential

treatment.

“I was just a mother who loved her son unconditionally. In the meantime, during all of this, I did

not realize my younger son had problems of his own. He entered kindergarten, and things began

to show the most then. He spent his days in his world, withdrawn from everyone, mostly sitting

under his desk and rolling around on the floor. The teachers had given up on him and passed him
through two grades, even though he had not completed ANY work for the whole year. I got him

evaluated, and he was diagnosed “on the spectrum.”

A very good friend came to me and told me to look into natural cures. Did he think some herbs

could help my son when $10,000 of the best meds in the field proved to do nothing for him? But

after a long talk, he was right, I was losing my son, and this was the only thing I had left to try!”

I found Amy and she started (us) right away on a remedy for not just children, but for myself as

well, to help with the stress, sadness, caretaking. I was still skeptical but willing to try. I prepared

myself for another dead end, more so now because this seemed like a fantasy. She had already

told me that it takes about a month to see changes but to stick with it.”

“TWO WEEKS LATER, my younger son (the one on the spectrum) brought home his first 100

on his spelling test, I laughed hysterically. Could this be true? Was it REALLY working, OMG!?

From then on, I started getting piles of papers every day from school with As and big Cs on

them. I was in shock! He started making friends, and after a meeting with the school, I found out

that he was now participating in activities, completing all his work HAPPILY and stopped all the

crying he was doing in school. The school asked me what we changed. They claimed he was a

completely different child and said they didn’t know what had happened but to keep doing

whatever we were doing. (I smiled inside for the first time in years.)”

My older son was still having issues with violence and temper tantrums in school. Two weeks

later, the full month marker to the day, I would say he had a breakdown in the car. He started

telling me all kinds of things, personal things he was struggling with, and things that made him

feel the way he does. That was four months ago, and the last day he ever hit someone! He now
has made a complete turnaround, and his doctors and therapists cannot believe it either. In just

four months of this treatment, my seven-year-old turned into a happy, straight-A student who has

now had his medication for ADHD taken down, and my eight-year-old was taken off of five of

his seven medications and is in the process of being weaned off of the last two! They are both

doing GREAT, and for the first time in five years, my son is out of crisis!”

“I was a skeptic, and now I thank God that he put this in my path. may sound crazy, but my

family is living proof it really does work.”

I gain nothing but self-satisfaction from writing this story in hopes that even one child can reap

the same benefits we have. My goal is and has always been to defend and help special needs

children, and I would be more than happy to help anyone who wants more info or has any

questions about our success with this treatment. Thank you again.”

Amy’s Comments:
I want to be clear: I do not claim to “cure” anything. I am not a doctor. I am a Practitioner for

Emotional/Mental Health. That being said, how beautiful and intense is Joanne’s story? This

story was one of the signs I was given, in my belief, by my higher power pushing me to get it out

there to as many people as I possibly can. The names were changed here, but you can find her
