Imagine...

the different emotional, mental, and physical results that follow the shock of sudden bad news, an argument with somebody close, or simply overworking...

Did you just think about stress, anxiety, anger, sorrows, or sleepless nights? These are just some of many common reactions. Their persistent presence can interfere with our ability to be happy, joyous, and at inner peace.

Flower Essences...

are a form of vibrational medicine. I am working with the 38 Bach Flower Essences, the 103 Californian FES Essences, and some of the Range of Light Essences. Each of these wonderful essences serves to gently address and balance core issues of wellness, such as specific emotions, mental attitudes, spiritual values, and soul issues. Here are just a few:

Stress ~ Depression ~ Mood Swings ~ Anxiety ~ Hopelessness ~ Persistent Worries ~ Rambling Thoughts ~ Impatience and Irritability ~ Inability to say 'No' ~ Co-Dependence ~ Lack of Confidence ~ Fear, including Test Anxiety, Stage Fright ~ Concentration Problems ~ Exhaustion & Fatigue ~ Chronic Illness, such as Cancer, Fibromyalgia etc. ~ Chronic Pain ~ Internalized Sadness & Grief ~ Uncertainty Over Life Direction ~ Adjusting to Change, i.e. pregnancy, new job, relocation, menopause, separation, recovery ~ High Sensitivity ~ Shock ~ Recovery from Trauma ~ Feeling 'Stuck'

Each individual or animal responds to them in a slightly different way. For some, the results are immediate and quite dramatic; for others, the shift is subtle and gradual. Over time, they may help one to feel more alive and in touch with goals, values, and creativity.

In A Flower Essence Consultation...

I am acting as your guide and teacher to help you choose your appropriate combination. We start with an 'initial' consultation, which may take between 1 to 1.5 hour depending on the issues and emotional patterns you need help with. I work with people of all ages as well as certain pets.

I focus on dialogue and creating a safe space in which you can safely share your anything you want to work on in strict confidentiality. I will ask you specific questions to deepen my understanding of your specific state and to enable us to go beyond surface emotions and feelings to the underlying, deeper emotions and hurts many of us have collected since childhood or even earlier in-utero or birth trauma. To determine the right essences, I may ask you to hold specific essences and observe your reactions. I may also use muscle testing to determine if your body 'likes' or 'dislikes' the specific essence or combination.

What is in the blend and how do I use it?

We usually choose four to six flower essences to make up your formula. This blend is a synergistic combination specific to your current emotional climate intended to help you become aware and slowly balance out reactive patterns.

It contains 2 or more drops of each selected flower essence, water, and glycerin (preservative). It needs to be taken orally at least 4 times a day (4 drops) and lasts approximately 3 to 4 weeks. At this time a 0.5 to 1 hour follow-up session is held to review and address emotional & behavioral shifts and refine/change the blend if needed.

How does it work?

Flower Essences are designed to uplift the spirit and encourage a connection to our "Higher Self". Like beautiful music that cheers us up when we are listening to it, they are helping us with their specific vibration to replace fear with courage, hate with love, and insecurity with self-confidence.

While they do not terminate life's challenges, they can help you maintain your inner balance during difficult situations. They are also helpful in "jump-starting" areas that are 'shut down', repressed, or when you find yourself repeatedly falling into the same patterns. This also makes them a perfect complimentary agent in psychotherapy and other healing practices such as acupuncture, massage, reiki, yoga, movement etc.

Do Flower Essences interfere with any medication or herbs?

There are no "active ingredients", as in herbal products or in allopathic (pharmaceutical) medicine. They are completely different from essential oils or aroma-therapy products. They do not contain any physical traces of the actual flower (or tree), but the flowers healing vibration imprinted in water and preserved in a stock-bottle.

While this may appear similar to homoeopathy, they do not address symptoms but the underlying emotional, mental, or spiritual cause that are leading to those symptoms. They cause no side effects or contra indications with drug oriented medicines or any other therapies.

Flower Essences are not cures for any specific illness and do not substitute any conventional medical treatment. They are chosen on the base of mental and emotional issues, rather than specific physical ailments.

Even though Flower Essences may help to remove underlying imbalances and increase self-healing, they are not meant to replace professional medical treatment, but rather to be included in a Wholistic approach to a person's Health & Well-Being.

Always consult a qualified health practitioner if you have a serious mental, emotional condition, or a known physical medical problem.
