What are Flower Essences?

Grandmother said to me: "Remember, child, that plants have been here since Mother Earth became Mother. And we are her daughters. We came later... They contain the sacred memory of our roots."

Flower Essences are liquid remedies made from the energetic imprint of living flowers. Essentially, they help to shift and elevate your personal vibration.

To better understand this, think of how every person has their own unique spirit or essence—well, the same applies to plants, trees, and flowers.

When you take a flower essence, it's like meeting the spirit of that flower on a soul-to-soul level.

We all seek ways to live and relate authentically and consciously in the world. However, we often find ourselves disconnected from love, saying "yes" when our heart says "no," overextending ourselves while neglecting our own needs, or fearing judgment from others.

Flower Essences help to shift deeply ingrained beliefs and patterns that may have formed in childhood but continue to influence us into adulthood. They bring these subconscious patterns into awareness, allowing for healing and transformation.

For centuries, various cultures have used Flower Essences for healing, ceremonies, and spiritual growth. In modern times, a British physician named Dr. Edward Bach helped reintroduce them to Western culture.

Typically, Flower Essences are packaged in dropper bottles with a small amount of brandy as a preservative. After shaking the bottle gently, you take a few drops under the tongue throughout the day.

They can also be sprayed or applied to sensitive areas of the body, like the wrists, soles of the feet, or the back of the neck. Another option is adding them to your bathwater.

Responses to Flower Essences can vary—some people experience immediate, noticeable shifts, while others may notice gradual changes in their emotional and mental well-being.
