Flower Essence Therapy

What are Flower Essences?

Flower Essences or vibrational essences use a flowers vital force or life force energies to heal. For example, an essence made from roses will use the life force of that flower and all the flowers from that variety of flowers to heal a person who takes the essence. Flower essence healing is based on the principle that the energy of plants and flowers are connected and shared with each other and can be passed on to other living things. Each variety of plant or flower has a certain positive vibration which can be used to heal those suffering from ailments connected to the negative pair of that vibration. 

Flower essences are normally produced in liquid form and preserved with alcohol such as brandy. They can be taken orally or added to creams, lotions and sprays.     

The use of flower essences is gaining recognition as a form of healing because of the amazing results it is achieving in holistic health in particular emotional healing. It is difficult to study these essences on a biochemical level as there are limitations to what science can currently research with current technology. Many healers in history understood that the physical manifestation of disease was the result of emotional imbalances.  We shouldn’t ignore the thousands of years this healing modality has been used successfully in many indigenous cultures and today it is starting to gain in popularity with essences like Bach Flower essences pathing the way. 

How do they Work?

Flower essence healing works on the premises of resonance.  Energy vibrates within the subtle human energy field which impacts a person’s physical and emotional health.  The water used to make the essence will echo the energy of the substance near it or surrounding it and that energy can then be transferred to someone else where it will stimulate the body back into balance. All living things carry a vibrational energy pattern and it is said flowers are the pinnacle of this energy system. 

The doctrine of signatures is vital in understanding what energy each plant or flower holds and how it can be used in application. DOS originated with Alchemical and Hermatic traditions where the most important thing was to understand how the universe corresponds to the individual. When viewed through the lense of the DOS the energetic qualities of a flower or plant appear through their colour, shape, habitat, growing patterns and size.   

When Were they discovered?

The history of using flowers to heal imbalances extends back thousands of years and there is documentation of their use on papyrus scripts from ancient Egypt. Indigenous Australians also use the healing properties of flowers and plants in healing ceremonies, birthing rituals and when people are injured or sick. The earliest European records of flower essences being used was by Saint Hildegard Von Bingen in the twelfth century. 

Saint Hildegard would place muslin sheets over flowers at night to absorb their dew. This dew would be collected in the morning and rung out into bowls and given to sick people in the convents infirmary. In the 1930’s a British physician Dr Edward Bach pioneered a deeper understanding of the application of flower essences and created the famous 38 Bach Flower Essences widely found in chemists and health food shops today. 

Today you can find flower essences in almost every region of the globe. Purethica has made over 30 unique essences which are used in our products. Each year we continue to add to the list of essences we are creating. When the calling to make a new essence arises, we do not hesitate to go out in nature and harness the healing power of various plants and flowers.

What are Flower Essences Used For

Flower essences can be used in many ways and can be combined with other vibrational essences or used alone. They can help with many things like releasing trauma and moving through blocks like self-doubt, worry and stress. They can be used to release old family patterns, restore happiness and joy, increase clarity, create calm and improve self-confidence. All emotional issues can be treated with flower essences. They can also help during meditation and mindfulness activities, journaling, manifestations and positive thinking. 

An open mind is essential when using flower essences.  I’ve had experiences with people who did not believe in the power of these essences who are now completely converted as the essences have changed their lives for the better. As they say, seeing is believing and you too will be converted once you use products containing vibrational essences.  

Anyone can use flower essences. I have treated my children from birth with flower essences and they are very safe and there are no side effects as can be seen with homeopathy. Depending on the degree of imbalance some flowers may have an immediate effect and others may be felt slowly in the course of the day or over a few weeks. If the wrong flower is chosen and it does not match the vibration you need than the energy of the flower just dissipates and you will not feel anything therefore choosing the mix that is right for you is important in gaining permanent healing.    

 
How to Take Vibrational Essences

Vibrational essences can be taken directly in the mouth, applied topically as a perfume, lotion or balm or in a bath. They can also be dispersed through the air in your home as a room sprays or used in a diffuser as here you will breath in the dissipated particles.
