Natural Healing for Body, Mind and Spirit

A flower essence is made from a plant when it is blossoming —its peak expression of vitality.  Flower essences carry the living spirit of the plant, and work energetically (by resonance) to influence the release and transformation of personal beliefs,  patterns and challenges.  They can be used to promote a return to health on all levels and particularly affect the realm of emotions, feelings and attitudes.

Plants affect us physically, emotionally and spiritually. They have been used by all cultures and throughout all history to feed, shelter, and heal us.  Flowers decorate, uplift, inspire us and crown our victories and celebrations.

I've heard it said that each plant emanates a unique aspect and gift of our Creator.   Each plant species demonstrates a specific strength and specific characteristics that can influence the mind, emotions, and the body.  Every plant has an innate knowing of what best nurtures it, and each species grows best in certain conditions.  Preparing flowers from plants growing “in their heaven” is part of the art of flower essence preparation.

Flower essences are compatible with both Western and Eastern medicine and have been safely used with infants, children, the infirm, the elderly, and animals.
 

Dr. Edward Bach, a pioneering English physician turned homeopath during the early part of the twentieth century, is considered the father of modern flower essence therapy.  Bach discovered the link between stress, emotions, and illness which modern medical science is only now beginning to address.  He noticed that individual patients reacted to their illnesses with the same behavior, moods, and states of mind, regardless of the disease, and began to treat their illness as a reflection of disharmony between the physical personality and the Higher Self.  Dr. Bach's remarkable insight into the relationship between illness and the emotions were reached more than 50 years prior to current psychoneuroimmunology research.                              Photo right: Dr. Edward Bach

Bach wrote: 

“Behind all disease lie our fears, our anxieties, our greed, our likes and dislikes...from time immemorial it has been known that Providential Means has placed in Nature the prevention and cure of disease by means of divinely enriched herbs and plants and trees.”  


This lovely video is based on the book Tree Talk by Dianne Robbins.  Oribel co-created the video to share why the Trees are important to planet Earth and it speaks beautifully of the souls of trees and how to “Listen with your heart” to the messages of the plant kingdom, and gives insight not only into how a flower essence practitioner discerns the heaven of a plant, but how a tree feeds our soul with the light and information it receives in tune with the Creator.
 
 
Personal Flower Formulas
 
I offer combinations of flower essences, personalized to your specific needs.
I use a diluted brandy solution as the carrier.  For the alcohol sensitive, I offer alternatives, flower essences in apple cider vinegar, plain spring water, or vegetarian sweet glycerin.  Unlike essential oils, flower essences themselves have no smell (or a slight aroma from their carrier liquid).  

FEES

I give flower essence consultations by phone or in person on a sliding scale of $75 to $95 a session to assemble the perfect flower support for you. During our consultation, I usually hear a flower or several flowers "speaking" for you.  A personalized formula, which I potentize in co-creation, is $15 each one ounce bottle plus shipping.  

($5.00 shipping USPS for up to two bottles).

I have also listened for and put together some universal flower essence formulas for the public that  I received in meditation.  They help with the effects and our reactions to Receiving Light, assist in Accepting Mastery, for working with the Medicine Wheel, to help with each of the 12 steps in a recovery program, and for Peace & Balance in times of change (The Equilibrium Elixir).  I also have available formulas developed by the founders of the Flower Essence Society (FES), Patricia Kaminski and Richard Katz, for Grief Relief, Spiritual Strength, Spiritual Leadership, and Manifestation.
