More than twenty years ago, my dear friend and astrologer, Barbara Shere (who die about four years ago), told me that she saw me making things to empower people. "Flower essences, I think."
At the time, I thought "I don't want to learn anything new. I have plenty to do."
Then, about seven or eight years later, I found myself in a garden I had designed and created - backbreaking work and all. I was making a flower essence. As I remembered Barbara's prediction, I smiled. When I was finished with the essence, I went inside and called Barbara.
"Do you remember telling me I would make flower essences?"
"Yes."
"Well I was just in the garden making a flower essence from my own garden!"
We laughed and talked for a bit, and then I went back to my work.
Eventually I had made more than fifty flower essences, and a number of crystal essences as well. I began muscle testing and making essence combinations for anyone who would sit still long enough to let me work. I learned a lot. I also used my own self as a test subject, learning how the essences worked, subtly and powerfully.
These days I test myself daily, and seldom get a "Yes" on the question "Do I need an essence or combination?" Recently however, I got the inner nudge to test myself for essences. I kept testing and taking the essence that tested positive for me, until I finally got to a combination of three single essences plus a combination a friend had made. I laughed out loud when I read the definition of the first essence, Calathea. It helps one to follow a single thought when there are many thoughts and ideas crowding the mind. This is something I work on all the time. In our busy world many of us attempt to multi-task. It never works. The other essences were equally powerful, lifting anger and opening the heart. I am taking it for many months - in fact as long as I am also using a process from Perelandra Ltd. called a "calibration."
The calibration, as I understand it, "unsticks" energy and patterns that are jammed or not moving for some reason. In working on burning the excess fat off my body, I realized I needed help. What came up for me was to do a calibration every day for a long period of time. My muscle testing for the essence combination gave me a twice a day dose for the same time remaining for doing the daily calibration. I don't understand all the reasons and what exactly is happening. I do know it is working for my highest and best.
This is one small example of how essences can work.

Essential Sprays
Another way to use flower essences is in a spray. I have a group of "Essential Sprays." They contain carefully selected flower and gem essences, along with essential oils.
Scent is very evocative, as we all know. A recent buyer told me his deceased wife loved one of my sprays, Clear Space, and he has been using the spray because it reminds him of her and comforts him. It has a clean scent at the same time it energetically cleans the space.
Abundance, with flower and crystal essences as well as oils of Myrrh, Oakmoss and Tangerine, is just what it says, an assist in manifesting what you ask for - abundantly.
Angelic Rainbow attracts angelic assistance with Angelica flower essence and Angelica, Rose, Rosemary and Lavender essential oils.
Blessing is Lavender flower essence with Lavender essential oil. Lavender is an amazing herb and flower, with antimicrobial properties. Most people enjoy the scent as well. It is relaxing and clarifying.
Focus is just what it says: use it to help focus - when you're on a tight deadline, when you have a an important meeting, or when you need to have a serious conversation - anytime you need to be clear and focused.
Harmony contains flower essences that promote calm, serene heart focus in any situation; clear thought; clear, peaceable communication; and the ability to see other points of view. The oils are Bergamot, Lavender, Rosemary, Vetiver and Ylang Ylang essential oils.
Sweet Dreams is soothing and relaxing, and enhances dreaming. It contains Saint John's Wort and Lavender flower essences and Essence of Herkimer diamond. The Herkimer Diamond is very useful in clear dreaming and remembering of dreams. The Oils of Lavender and Jasmine essential oils are relaxing as well. Mimosa essential oil opens the heart to unconditional love, and also facilitates intuitive and spiritual connections in the dreamtime.

Tools for thriving
So how did I continue to thrive through all the intensity of the current administration (endless war, shenanigans beyond belief, and greed running rampant) and the political campaign that seemed to last forever? Flower essences were part of the answer. Believe me, flower essences are potent and wonderfully easy to use.
The first flower essences were made by Dr. Edward Bach, a respected surgeon and general practitioner in London during the early part of the last century. He went on to create homeopathic remedies, and then created what are still know as the Bach Flower Remedies.
Another doctor, Dr. Bjorn Nordenstrom, gave us the next piece: the human electrical system. In the 1950s, he pioneered a series of radical innovations in radiology that are now routine at every major hospital in the world. He was then promoted to the most respected position in his field: head of diagnostic radiology at Stockholm's Karolinska Institute. In 1985 he served as chairman of Karolinska's Nobel Assembly, which chooses the laureates in medicine. He was a brilliant, very innovative, very imaginative scientist, who has made significant contributions to radiology and medicine.
In the 1960s, he saw something on an x-ray that he had never seen before, and set about finding out what it was. In the process, he discovered that our bodies have an electrical system, and it is way beyond the system described in acupuncture. The circuits are switched off by an injury, an infection, a tumor, emotional upset, or even by the normal activity of the body's organs; voltages build and fluctuate; electric currents course through arteries and veins and across capillary walls, drawing white blood cells and metabolic compounds into and out of surrounding tissues. This electrical system works to balance the activity of internal organs and, in the case of injuries, represents the very foundation of the healing process. It's as critical to the well-being of the human body as the flow of blood. Disturbances in this electrical network are involved in the development of disease.
He started to work with patients who had gone through every protocol and still had tumors. He experimented, manually connecting the electric circuits of the body through the tumors. Most patients were cured just by that treatment. The rest, who still had some tumor, were treated with very low doses of chemo and became cancer free. And they stayed cancer free long enough to be considered "cured."
In 1983 Nordenstrom published a 358-page book covering more than two decades of experimental work, entitled Biologically Closed Electric Circuits: Clinical, Ex- perimental, and Theoretical Evidence for an Additional Circulatory System, and it's about electrical activity in the human body – the biological equivalent of electric circuits.
At this point, it is still cutting edge in the scientific world. Okay, so why is this relevant to flower essences? Because flower essences are essentially an electrical pattern. The flower petals that are floated in water in the making of the essence hold the electrical pattern of the flower. Each flower has a healing potential that can be used in repairing, balancing and stabilizing other electrical systems (human, animal and so on). So if we select the correct essence, we can easily repair our own electrical systems.
How do we select the correct essence? That too is easy. We use our body's electrical system to tell us which essence will repair, stabilize and balance our own electrical system - through applied kinesiology, also called "muscle testing." Muscle testing uses the electrical circuits of the body to accurately answer any yes or no question. Many of us are already using the simple technique to repair stabilize and balance the electrical systems of our bodies. Flower essences, properly selected and used, keep the electrical system working properly, which brings the whole body into greater balance and health.
In my practice, I have had so many clients look at me and ask some form of "How did you know that was an issue for me? I haven't told anyone" or "How did you know that is what I am working on in therapy?" The answer is in the electrical system. It still amazes me with its simplicity and absolute elegance. And it works so well.
Until next time. . . .
