FLOWER ESSENCES:
A note about flower essences: Flower essences are subtle liquid extracts made from a sun infusion of a flowering plant and used to address profound issues of emotional well being, soul development and mind-body health. The essence is the life force of the flower and is vibrational in nature. Each flower has a specific energetic pattern which can be used to influence mental, emotional, and physical well being within the human energy field without effecting a person on a chemical level. It can be compared to the effect we experience from hearing a particularly moving piece of music or seeing an inspirational work of art. The specific structure and shape of the life forces conveyed by each flower essence resonates with and awakens particular qualities within the human soul.
