Flowers hold incredible wisdom. Their medicine links us to the natural world, expands our heart consciousness, and provides new insights. Flower essences support emotional wellness by repairing energetic imbalances that restore overall health and harmony. When we heal our emotions, we can begin to heal our bodies, and flowers can act as the bridge between the physical and spiritual realms.

What are Flower Essences?

Natural and energy medicine has been around for centuries and utilized across most cultures in various forms. All plants have their own unique vibrational energy patterns and flowers have specific meanings and individual healing properties. Also known as Flower Remedies or Flower Therapy, Flower Essence Therapy is a form of herbal medicine that accesses the healing vibrational energy of flowers. We often associate flowers with love and celebrations; we relate to the joy, life, and color they bring to any environment. Looking at the additional internal benefits allows us to see the bloom from a holistic perspective. The gifts of the floral world are subtle, yet when we are open to its medicine, can lead to lasting change and harmony. 

Working on a psycho-emotional level as agents of change and transformation, flower essences address underlying feelings and stored memories, and can shift unhealthy patterns or beliefs, balancing mental and emotional disharmony. Emotional factors can often impede physical healing, and flower essences work to balance the vibrations of the body to further fight disease and stress. Emotional symptoms can also be seen as a disconnect from your Higher Self, and flower essences work to restore balance between body, mind and spirit, reconnecting you to your inner wisdom and stimulating one’s own potential for self-healing and growth. 

How Are They Made And Used?

Unlike essential oils or herbal extracts, there are no physical parts of the plant used in the essence. Instead, the life-force and vibrational signature of the plant is imprinted within a water-based matrix. Simply capturing the energy of the freshly picked flowers through sun or moon steeping for a few hours. The water is then collected, strained and potentized through dilution methods, leaving no physical botanical compound behind. There is no way to misuse flower essences; anything that does not match the vibration of the chosen flowers simply dissipates, and if the wrong flower is chosen, you will not feel any change. 

Flower remedies can be used both internally (as drops) and externally (as lotions, sprays, etc.) by adults and children alike. True flower essences have no fragrance, dye, flavor, or preservatives, and will not interfere with other medications or herbs. As there are meanings and therapeutic properties assigned to each bloom, a personalized formula is created to address and correct individual imbalances or issues. The effects of the essence can sometimes be felt right away; other times subtle shifts occur over days or weeks.

How Can They Benefit Me?

Flower essences reveal our full potential. They offer a wonderful way to heal and grow, acting as catalysts for change at a deep emotional level. This energy medicine is working with the subtle body, as opposed to the physical form that’s often targeted in pharmaceuticals or other herbal medicines. Flower essences are special in that they work behind the scenes, shifting energy and perspective to give a person the support they need to move towards health. These shifts are often gentle, creating a ripple effect for greater insight and understanding as to what is happening in the body. Flower essences support energetic shifts where the imbalance is occurring, and therefore can support the body in healing diseases, relieving pain, and calming the mind and emotions. 

Positive changes that can be experienced through flower essence therapy include: reducing anxiety, boosting self-esteem, abating depression, overcoming fears, releasing anger, judgment and jealousy, healing the past, feeling more centered and grounded in the body, quieting the mind, cultivating patience, discovering one’s true calling, making healthy transitions (in relationships, career, home), releasing guilt and shame, making clear decisions, and cultivating a deeper connection with your Higher Self.  

What Does a Session Look Like?

During a Flower Essence session we will work together to discuss and evaluate your emotional and spiritual well-being, assessing the areas in your life that you are looking to support. A personalized blend (up to five Batch flower essences) will be chosen and created to support your growth and expansion. A full explanation of each essences primary qualities and why they have been selected, will also be provided.  It is generally recommended that you take the essence for up to one month, yet dosage, general tips, and care will also be covered during your session.
