Flower essences have played an important part in my healing over the years.
The essences that have helped me the most are: Rescue Remedy (essence of Cherry Plum, Rock Rose, Impatiens, Star of Bethlehem, and Clematis) which helps me stay calm under great stress, Holly- from www.fesflowers.com: Positive qualities: Loving and inclusive gestures to others; heartfelt compassion; ability to express gratitude to others
Patterns of imbalance: Social isolation; jealousy, envy, suspicion, anger
and Yarrow: Positive qualities: Luminous and strong auric field, compassionate and inclusive sensitivity, refined and flexible psychic forces
Patterns of imbalance: Extreme vulnerability to others and to the environment; easily depleted, overly absorbent of negative influences, psychic toxicity.
I have used Bach flower remedies and Flower Essence Service remedies but there are many other brands/flowers out there. A good book I have found on the subject is the Flower Essence Reperatory.
Does anyone else use flower remedies? What has your experience been?
From my experience, flower essences feel like they provide a certain type of emotional energy, depending on the flower, that assists one in learning about one's self and helps in healing of the emotions or soul.http://www.fesflowers.com/faq_essences.htm#e1 said:What are flower essences?
Flower essences are herbal infusions or decoctions, made from the flowering part of the plant, which uniquely address emotional and mental aspects of wellness. The first 38 flower remedies were formulated by a British physician, Dr. Edward Bach, in the 1930's, although new remedies from other plant species are now available.
How do flower essences work?
To understand how flower essences work requires a recognition that the human being is more than a physical body, but also incorporates a "body" of life energy, a "body" of sensitivity and feelings, and a spiritual essence or Self. Flower essences are energetic imprints of the life force of plants which interact with these subtle bodies of the human being, and evoke specific qualities within us. We can say that they work in a similar way to inspirational music or art, which carry meaning through the vehicle of sound or light, while the flower essences work through the medium of water.
Modern physics has known for nearly a century that matter and consciousness are intertwined. However, medical science still generally works with a nineteenth century model of the human being as a mechanism in a world of machines. We expect that in the coming century medical science will develop ways of studying the impact of consciousness on health, and we will learn more about the ways in which flower essences work. However, empirical research, which consists of the collection of case studies and practitioner reports, will remain the primary source of knowledge about how flower essences work.
