Our Flower Essences
So, what are Flower Essences?
Let’s start with the easy part, what flower essences aren't: they are not perfumes, essential oils, or herbal tinctures. They don’t smell like flowers or taste like flowers. They do taste like whichever carrier you’ve chosen: white vinegar* or brandy. (*Please note: vinegar-based essences do contain up to 3 drops of brandy per ½ ounce.)
​
What Flower Essences ARE is vibrational medicines... They work on our spiritual bodies, and help deal with unhelpful emotions by helping to clear obsessive thinking and outdated emotional patterns...
​
“Flower essences (not to be confused with essential oils) are specially prepared liquid tinctures made from all sorts of flowers… Flower essences are not a physical medication in that they do not contain specific molecules of medicinal substances taken from ground-up flowers. Rather, flower essences are prepared by picking fresh flowers, still wet with dew, and placing them in a clear glass bowl of spring water during the early-morning hours. The bowl of flowers is left in bright sunlight for a period of several hours. During this time, a unique process takes place. The energy of sunlight appears to transfer a certain aspect of the flower – the very pattern of its life-force energy – directly into the water. Unlike homeopathy, which hinges upon success and dilution to imprint water with the vibrational pattern of different substances from nature, flower-essence preparation usually depends upon the energy of sunlight to imprint water with the healing vibrational properties of flowers… Brandy is added to the water in a one-to-one ratio. The sun-drenched liqueur is often referred to as the “mother tincture.” ” (Richard Gerber, Vibrational Medicine for the 21st Century: 199-200)

How do I use Flower Essences?
Flower Essences should be taken, 3 drops at a time, under the tongue or in a glass of pure water.
You can choose a different flower essence every day, or work with an essence for a longer period of time, for three to seven days in a row. Pay attention to any shifts or changes that you notice. You can take a break and resume, or try a different flower essence next.
​
We strongly recommend that you work with a (dream) journal while you're "meeting" new Flower Allies with the essences – that way you won't forget any details, or miss any messages that might not become clear until later...
If you're looking for something more personalized and powerfully-you, we can schedule a chat to make a Personalized Combination that's designed to address an issue that's active in your life right now.

How to Choose a Flower Essence
Goodie, it's time for the fun part!
​
There are lots of ways to choose a flower essence: see which one 'jumps out' or 'sparkles' at you... because of the words of the card, the location of the bottle (or shop listing!), the image of the flower, or just because it's a flower (or tree) that you know and love.
​
Those are all great reasons to choose to work with a particular Flower Essence.
​
"You can't get it wrong and you never get it done," as Abraham (via Esther Hicks) likes to say... and it's true: You can't get it wrong! Whichever flower pops up for you is the right one for you. You're the boss: trust your intuition! And always follow the sparkly path!
