What are Flower Essences?

Flower Essences are made from the blossoms, leaves or stems of a particular flower and then potentised so that the energetic healing properties of that flower are imprinted in the essence.

They come in the form of oral drops which are placed directly on to the tongue. All Flower Essences are non-addictive and totally natural.

Flower Essences work on a vibrational level in the body, helping the body start its own self-healing.
Each essence is very individual, having its own characteristics.

I work with a number of different lines of Flower Essences from all over the world, including the Australian Bush Flower Essences, Masters Flower Essences, Baileys Essences and Bach Essences.
There are also other essences that are made from natural substances such as gems.

What happens in a consultation?

A Flower Essences consultation with me lasts between 60 and 90 minutes. I will take the time to listen to you and understand your particular needs. It is important for me to gain as much detail about you as a person in general as well as the issues you would like help with, so that the essences I select are best suited to you.

I will then choose one or more essence for you to take. Sometimes a combination of essences will be taken at once, whereas other times I might ask you to take the essences sequentially.

The essences are taken in the form of oral drops and can help with a variety of issues simultaneously.
You can take them alongside other medication as they are totally natural and have no side effects.

Usually I will ask to see you at monthly intervals so that the essences have time to work, however this very much depends on the person and their needs at that time.

What conditions can Flower Essences help with?

We all have stresses and strains to deal with on a daily basis. Flower Essences can help us deal with these challenges more easily, so that we are not knocked off balance so easily. They are so supportive and comforting that I often refer to them as ‘a hug in a bottle’.

Flower Essences are particularly effective in helping with emotional issues, and are able to help us dissolve old behavioural patterns and thoughts that no longer serve us but which are so deeply engrained that they have become habitual. Then we are able to embrace and bring to the fore the positive qualities that are within all of us but sometimes get hidden.

Physical symptoms can also be helped with Flower Essences. This is because there is such a strong link between mind and body that when you address the underlying emotional imbalances, the physical ailments often resolve too.

Children can also really benefit from Flower Essences to help them through more difficult times such as having nightmares, being bullied, not wanting to speak up in class, exam nerves, homesickness…to name but a few!

A small selection of conditions essences can help with include:

• Bereavement/ grief
  
• Exam stress
  
• Studying
  
• Giving up smoking
  
• Addictions
  
• Fears and phobias
  
• Lack of energy
  
• Sleep problems
  
• Low self confidence/ low self esteem
  
• Decision making
  
• Poor concentration/ memory
  
• Resistance to change
  
• Anxiety

Flower Essences can be used as a stand-alone therapy or in conjunction with other therapies.
I will often prescribe them alongside remedies when treating someone homeopathically.
