Understanding Flower Essences: The Healing Power of Nature
In the fast-paced world, we now find ourselves living in, many of us are seeking more natural remedies to address the emotional, mental and physical challenges we face. One such remedy that is regaining popularity is the use of flower essences. But what exactly are flower essences, and how do they work? Let’s take a little peek into this rather fascinating topic and explore how the Australian Bush Flower Essences (ABFE) can be particularly beneficial for those of us who are living in Australia, here on Gondwanna land.
What Are Flower Essences?
Flower essences are vibrational remedies made from the extracts of flowers, capturing their unique energetic properties. Developed by Dr. Edward Bach in the 1930s, this holistic approach to healing focuses on the emotional and spiritual aspects of well-being rather than solely the physical symptoms. The essences are typically created by infusing flower petals in water, which is then preserved with alcohol.
Each plant has its own ‘signature’ and higher healing, or soul purpose, and the flower essence liquid described above, has an energetic resonance that addresses specific emotional states. The flower essences offer support for issues like anxiety, sadness, or lack of confidence. When taken, these essences work on a subtle energetic level, helping to restore balance and harmony within the subtle energetic field of the individual. This is plant medicine in its most subtle form.
How Do Flower Essences Work?
The underlying principle of flower essences is based on the concept of resonance. Each flower has a distinct vibration that corresponds to certain emotional states. When you take a flower essence, its energetic imprint interacts with your own energy field, promoting healing and emotional release.
Here’s how they typically work:
1. Emotional Resonance: Flower essences address specific emotional challenges. For example, the essence of Bottle Brush can help those who are dealing with major life changes, while Bush Gardenia may help those who have lost their passion for life or need to reconnect back in with a partner.
2. Energetic Alignment: Flower essences seek to realign your energy with your emotional well-being. By taking the essence that resonates with your current state, you can facilitate a smoother path towards healing.
3. Supportive Nature: These remedies are gentle and supportive, making them suitable for a wide range of age groups and emotional states. They can be taken individually or in combination, depending on one’s needs.
The Australian Bush Flower Essences
For those living in Australia, there’s a unique advantage in using Australian Bush Flower Essences. These essences are derived from the native flora of the continent, capturing the distinct energetic properties of the Australian environment.
Why Are They Particularly Beneficial for Australians?
1. Energetic Alignment: From an electrical perspective, we who live on this land become a part of it’s ‘field’ so it makes perfect sense that we are energetically aligned with the local flora. This connection can enhance the effectiveness of the essences, as they resonate more deeply with the experiences and emotions of those who inhabit this land.
2. Cultural Relevance: The Australian Bush Flower Essences are rooted in the culture and environment of Australia, making them relevant to the psyche of Australians. These essences can address the specific challenges faced by individuals in this unique landscape, from the fast-paced urban life in cities to the serene solitude of rural areas. They have presented themselves to offer healing in this time-frame, and offer healing and rebalancing for current issues.
3. Diverse Options: The variety of Australian bush flowers offers a wide range of essences to support emotional mental and spiritual healing. Whether it’s the calming properties of the Waratah as a person moves through their ‘dark night of the soul’, or the uplifting effects of the Boab tree that are gained as family patterns and karma are cleared. There’s an essence to suit every journey.
How to Use Flower Essences
Using flower essences is simple and accessible. Typically, they can be taken sublingually (under the tongue), added to water, or used in sprays or topical applications. I usually recommend taking 7 drops under the tongue morning and night, when a specific issue is being treated, but for some combinations like the Emergency Essence, they can be taken as needed.
Conclusion
Flower essences provide a gentle yet effective way to enhance emotional, mental and spiritual well-being, helping us to navigate life’s challenges with more ease and grace. By embracing the vibrational wisdom of flowers, you can tap into the beauty and healing power of nature, fostering a more balanced and harmonious state of being.
