Flower Essence Therapy
Flower Essences are infusions made from the flowering part of a plant.
For centuries, flower essences have been used around the world to address our emotional and mental wellness.
Each flower has a different vibrational energy that can be used to heal what may be lacking or depleted in our lives.
For instance, the Opium Poppy can be helpful in finding the balance point between activity and rest. It is indicated in circumstances where one has a hard time being aware of past accomplishments and is forever looking toward the future and staying busy.
Whereas, Angelica can help us connect with the abundance of spiritual support and protection available to us all. It helps us be connected to the earth and brings the feeling that all is safe and good. It can also help trace the connection from spirit to mind to emotion so the mind can learn to relax and keep a broader, general perspective.
What should I expect in a consultation?
Before a Flower Essence consultation, you will receive a pre-evaluation form to assess your needs and gather information that will inform our session.
During the consultation, we will work together to discuss and evaluate your emotional and spiritual wellbeing.
Some indications might be: struggling to relate to other people on a deeper level, thinly-veiled anger that seems to have no direct cause, a feeling of disconnection from the world around you, or clearing remnants of past traumatic events.
Flower essences can also be used for lighter goals, like trying to dream deeper and recall your experiences or remembering a childlike sense of playfulness in your daily life.
We will craft a personalized blend for you, based on our discussion and your goals.
I also use the Human Design system to look at your unique energetic makeup and see where there might be pinch points, stressors, and misalignment that we can address.
You will receive resources on how to properly use flower essences with the consultation.
If we are working together remotely, we will discuss the shipping for the essence blend during the session.
Blends will contain Alaskan Flower Essences, Bach, and/or Flower Essence Society Essences.
How do they work?
Essences (or remedies) are homeopathic in nature, so no plant material is left in the essence. This preparation makes essences gentle and widely safe for use.
In general, essences are recommended to be taken for a longer period of time (weeks or months) when working on deeper issues. This length allows the layers to unwind to get at root causes and patterns.
Flower Essences are a very natural and safe way of healing. They have no side effects and can easily be integrated into any program of care as they do not interfere with other forms of treatments.
