Flower essences are a form of herbal medicine, developed with the idea that every physical ailment has an emotional component behind it.  They are based on the foundation that flowers possess their own healing vibrational energy which can help improve the underlying emotions which can often be an underlying cause of many health issues. 

 

Unlike pharmaceuticals, which often suppress symptoms, flower essences work by the principle of resonance where the imbalance starts. In other words, the action of flower essences is energetic, not biochemical. All plants have a unique vibrational energy pattern, and the flower is the pinnacle of this energy.  When you use flower essences, anything that doesn’t match the vibration of a chosen essence simply goes away.  Negative feelings always have a lower vibration than positive feelings.   For example, if you are experiencing fear and anxiety and you use a flower essence with a calming or joyful vibration, your awareness of that calm and joyful feeling is raised, and the feeling of fear (which is a lower vibration) dissipates. This is also how homeopathic remedies work.

​

Flower essences are made using flowers by submerging flowers in spring water.  The process of sun steeping, or boiling the flower in water, captures the energy imprint of the flower.  The water is filtered and then preserved with brandy.  A few drops of this water is mixed with several ounces of water and administered by taking only a few drops per day.   The essence is extremely diluted which causes little to no side effects.
