What are Flower Essences?

The flower essences are not therapeutic drugs – but work on the mind, soul and spirit and are obtained by extracting the healing vibrational quality from the highest evolved part of the plant – the flowers. Working on the emotional level, they harmonize negative feelings and belief patterns held in the subconscious mind.

Flower remedies are not new. The Australian Aboriginals have always used flowers to heal the emotions, as did the ancient Egyptians. There has also been a very long tradition of use of flower essences in India, Asia and South America and they were also very popular in Europe in the Middle Ages. Hildegard von Bingen (12th century) and Paracelsus (15th century) both wrote about how they collected dew from flowering plants to treat health imbalances.

Flower essences not only help to give clarity to one's life but also the courage, strength and commitment to follow and pursue one's goals and dreams. They help to develop a higher level of intuition, self esteem, spirituality, creativity and fun. The more the essences are used, the more one is likely to experience greater awareness and happiness in one's life.

The effect of these essences is similar to that of meditation in that they enable the person to access the wisdom of their Higher Self. This releases negative beliefs held in the subconscious mind and allows the positive virtues of the Higher Self - love, joy, faith, courage etc. to flood their being. When this happens the negative beliefs and thoughts are dissolved, balance is restored and true healing occurs.

If an inappropriate remedy is chose, it will not work. The essences can be used by adults, children, plants and animals. They can be safely used throughout pregnancy.

Please note that flower essences are completely safe and non-toxic - unless you happen to be highly sensitive to brandy, which is used as a preservative (in which case, you can simply add the essences to a cup of steaming hot water to evaporate the alcohol).

I use the Bach Flower Remedies, the Australian Bush Essences and the Phytobiophysics Flower Formulas®.

Bach Flower Remedies

The term “Flower Remedy” refers to the products developed by Dr Edward Bach, a London bacteriologist and homoeopath in the 1930s.

Dr. Edward Bach rediscovered flower essences over fifty years ago using flowers of English plants and shrubs. His vision was that of simplicity. Like Dr. Bach, all the great healers such as Hippocrates, Paracelsus, Aristotle and Hahnemann agreed on this point. They believed that good health was the result of emotional, spiritual and mental harmony.

Dr Bach became disillusioned with the side effects of drug therapies and turned his research to the healing power of nature. He believed that illness was a result of mental or emotional balance and that the unique energetic property of a plant could be used to rectify an imbalance and restore the awareness of wholeness. Using the homoeopathic law of potentisation, he reasoned that the healing effects of plants might also be contained in the morning dew found on their flowers.

Dr Bach believed that harmful emotions were the main cause of disease and he classified the various emotions into seven main categories. These seven categories were then divided further into 38 negative feelings. Each negative emotion is associated with a particular plant. He also developed a compound of five flowers called Rescue Remedy to be used in emergency situations or for trauma.

Australian Bush Essences

Australian plants have a real beauty and strength. There is something quite remarkable about them. Apart from the fact that Australia has the highest number of flowering plants, they are the oldest in the world. Metaphysically, Australia has always had a very wise, old energy and at the moment there is a tremendous new vitality in this country and New Zealand.

IAN WHITE. Naturopath and Homeopath B.Sc.,N.D.,D.B.M. Founder of the Australian Bush Flower Essences The healing method of flower essences was rediscovered by Dr. Edward Bach sixty years ago through the use of English flowering plants. Today our society and its needs are totally different to that of sixty years ago. There has been a great need for remedies that would help people deal with the issues of the 21st century - sexuality, communication skills and spirituality to name but a few. The answer to this need has come from the Australian plants, developed and researched by Naturopath, Ian White a fifth generation Australian herbalist. Ian grew up in the Australian bush. As a young boy his grandmother, like her mother before her, specialized in using Australian plants and would often take him bush walking. From her deep understanding she would point out the many healing plants and flowers. He learned a profound respect for nature through her and went on to become a practitioner and a pioneer working with and researching the rare remedial qualities of Australian native plants.

PHYTOBIOPHYSICS® Flower Formulas

Phytobiophysics Flower Formulas have the capacity to:

• Release energy blocks
• Antidote the vibration of poisons and toxicity of modern society
• Aid the body to assimilate nutrients
• Stabilize and harmonies emotional sadness and trauma which assists recovery
• Encourage the body's own innate ability to heal itself on a profound level.

The Flower Formulas are collections of essences, sold in tablet form, made from living flowers and plants which when combined resonate on an accurate and particular frequency. They are not accidental mixtures of flowers and over the course of years of research they have been refined to a point where each formula has been targeted to regulate specific cellular systems in a very accurate manner.

Phytobiophysics was developed by Diana Mossop, who followed on from research done by Dr. Edward Bach in his Bach Flower Remedies into the power of plant essences.

The core scientific concept is that phytobiophysics harnesses the vibration energy of plants to release energy blocks in the human body so that balance is re-established for all levels of consciousness; spiritual, emotional, mental and physical.

They are natural, free of additives and chemicals, non addictive, safe for babies, children, the elderly and even for pets.

NO SIDE EFFECTS: Each tablet contains pure sucrose coated with a combination of flower essences and are made by Helios Pharmacy.

Post and email consultation

I offer personal flower essence consultations by email which includes a 30ml. dose bottle containing combined essences (Bach Remedies and/or Australian Bush Essences) tailored to your personal needs (to be taken over 2 - 4 weeks).

If you would like a flower essence consultation send me an email telling me about yourself. Here are some suggested questions, but don’t feel you have to answer all of these. Just say whatever you wish to say. If it’s a simple issue, you might find that a couple of paragraphs says it all - though it is crucial to know something about you, your life and your personality.

1. Your name and full postal address. An email address would be useful. It also helps to know your age, occupation, whom you live with and whether you have children.
2. What would you like flower essences for? Please describe your current emotional state or situation in detail. Flower essences can address emotional or psychological states, repeated patterns, addictive behaviour, blockages, spiritual aims, karmic issues, relationship or work issues etc. NOTE: flower essences work most effectively if you deal with one issue at a time - though this might include several related factors.
3. What are the goals or dreams you have for the future? What do you want to change?
4. Do you have any physical symptoms or disease - whether acute, chronic or recurrent? Although flower essences do not directly affect physical symptoms, any symptoms can give me useful information about imbalances in your energy field.
5. Give any other information about your current life, past experience or childhood that feels important.

The fee for this service is £25 and you can pay online (HERE).

It is unrealistic to expect one or two bottles to resolve all your issues. Taking flower essences is like unpeeling layers of a rose so as the initial issues are resolved, new insights or goals or issues might come up that you wish to work with. Flower essences accelerate our spiritual path, and they are at their most powerful when used to support deep soul-transformation over a period. If it feels appropriate, do contact me for further consultations just sending the new information. If you wish, I can also send repeat bottles for £9.00 per 30ml dose bottle. You can pay online (HERE).
