The Profound Power of Flower Essences
What are flower essences?
They are energetic imprints of
the life force or “prana” of plants, which interact with our
subtle bodies and evoke specific qualities and changes
within us. Each species of flowering plant has developed
unique characteristics to enhance its ability to survive and
thrive. The inner wisdom or blueprint for the forming of
these characteristics is found in the flower. A flower essence
contains these unique life enhancing concepts as messages. These messages have been found
to be as beneficial to humans and animals as they are to the parent plant. When a human has a
negative or faulty message running through their system, the right flower essence can
encourage the healthy message being formed and strengthened, therefore changing the
perception of the stress.
Flower essences can bring healing on a deep emotional level, assisting with unhelpful patterns of behaviour, negative reactions to life and emotional or mental blocks to achieving your health goals. They can help to stimulate or access new mental pathways to find more peace and happiness, assist with changing your mindset and rewriting new patterns of behaviour. Flower essences are an ancient healing discipline and here in our ‘Wildflower State’, our first peoples
have an oral tradition of flower essence therapy dating back to the last ice age, which includes an understanding of the non-herbal use of flowers. The Western world was re-introduced to flower essence therapy through Dr. Edward Bach in the 1930’s and since the 1970’s new research continued until now there are flower essences produced on every continent. They are
part of an emerging field of subtle energy medicine, having profound results with activating positive change.
A recent experience from a lovely client was with these two amazing flower essences, Hybrid Pink Fairy Orchid and Catspaw. My client was having issues with her housemate and was holding back communicating these issues with her, not wanting to offend her as well as a lack of confidence. Although it is always hard having these deep conversations with people, she knew she had to, moving forward and improve the relationships in the house. She took these two essences and within a short
time she felt comfortable in speaking her truth. Hybrid Pink Fairy Orchid helps build inner strength and removes stress
caused by other people, this being the block to her communicating with her housemate. Catspaw helps with courage and in speaking out.
The essences are similar to homeopathies and are completely allergen free, they are free from harmful side effects and contraindications, and can be taken alongside any form of pharmaceutical medicine, including chemotherapy. They are also complimentary to other energetic healing modalities. They are safe to use on children, babies, adults, animals, pets and
even plants. The essences work on babies and children very fast, not needing to cut through conceptual ideas and ingrained patterns. They can be taken in an oral dose or applied topically or sprayed on the body. Flower Essence Therapy has been used in hospitals and natural health clinics, and as an application in psychology, acupuncture and massage therapies.
