Flower Essences Method

Flower Essences Method

Flower Essences are a simple and natural method of healing using the energy of the plant kingdom. Until recent years all pharmaceutical preparation relied upon the use of natural substances. the flower remedies however do not use the physical material of the plant but rather the essential energy that is found within the flower. This healing energy is extracted in a particular way and stored in a preserving liquid. This subtle substance is used to treat the cause of illness at the subtle level. While most medicine treats the physical complaint with a physical material, the flower remedies treat the unseen or psychological cause with an unseen energy. It is not the plant that represents the healing quality here, but the energy that is within the flower. This energy is extracted by the most careful yet simple methods. An infusion is made from the flowers, and by a process of natural alchemy, the healing energy within the flowers is transferred into the liquid. When the flowers are removed, the liquid is poured into bottles where alcohol (usually brandy) is added. This acts as a preservative. This extract from the plant is the 'essence'. Two drops of essence are sufficient to potentise a one ounce bottle of brandy - this is now 'stock' of that particular remedy. the stock is further diluted in water and brandy to make it ready to be taken. A dose would be approximately 4 drops, four times a day for as long as is required. For more information see our Products Page. The South African Flower Essences The South African Flower Essences are produced in the Cape of Good Hope at the tip of the African Continent where the Indian and Atlantic Oceans meet. It is a place of exceptional and dramatic beauty. Table Mountain, around which the city of Cape Town is situated has long been regarded as a sacred site and one of the chakras of the planet. It is on the slopes of this mountain that the essences are made. Our planet has six floral kingdoms and the Cape of Good Hope is home to one of these. It is the smallest geographical area to have its own floral kingdom, being a size comparable to the area of Portugal. There are over 8600 species of plants indigenous to this floristic region. Table Mountain alone has 1500 indigenous species, many of which are found nowhere else. By comparison the whole of the British Isles also has about 1500 indigenous species. In the 17th and 18th centuries when European botanists arrived in the Cape they were amazed to discover an unrecognisable plant life, a new and unique botanical world. New names had to be invented for whole plant families. Many of these plants were taken back to Europe and today it is often not known that species such as Geraniums, Freesias, Sparaxis, Gladioli and Agapanthus originate from the Cape. Certain of the plants from the Cape of Good Hope are used by other flower essence producers. For instance the Agapanthus and Belladonna lily by the New Perception Essences in New Zealand, and the Arum Lily (called Calla Lily in California) by the Flower Essence Society. For the most part the energy of this wonderfully rich and diverse floral kingdom, which includes the vast Protea and Erica families, has not been accessed. It is believed that, as we near the end of the millennium, there is an increasing awareness that we live in a world composed of electromagnetic energy and that we ourselves are vibrational beings. Increasingly, we understand that true healing occurs when we raise our vibrational frequency to a level where negativity and disease cannot exist. As human beings we have free will and it is essential that we exercise this will to bring about the changes we desire for ourselves and our world. It is the thoughts we think, the feeling, beliefs and attitudes we hold which combine to create our vibrational frequency. The South African Flower Essences work to help us access the depths of our psyches and to bring an awareness of what it is in our past experience that holds us back from being all that we could be. Using flower essences to lift our frequency to higher levels, we can have different perspectives on our lives and can make different choices and decisions. When we hold this new vibrational frequency, negativity disappears and blockages in our auric field and energy meridians dissolve. Because the aura creates the physical body, as it changes, these changes are reflected on the physical level. It is believed that the energy of Africa, which is focused in Table Mountain where the leylines of the whole continent converge, has much to offer the world. South Africa, having been through a cycle of withdrawal from and ostracism by the international community, has rejoined the global family. 1994, the year of South Africa's first free elections and the year of Nelson Mandela's instatement as president was also the year that these essences chose to manifest. The vibrational rainbow of the South African Flower Essences is now blending with the energy streaming in from all over our planet to contribute to planetary healing.
