Disease is caused by obstruction the free flow of the vital force throughout the four levels of being: Spiritual, Emotional, Mental/Intellectual and Physical. If this obstruction is allowed to continue, then disease can progress into all levels. So to truly restore harmony, treatment needs to occur on each level. The cause of the illness must be treated, not just symptoms.
Flower essences heal in many ways. They help to give clarity to one’s life, as well as courage, strength and commitment to follow and pursue one’s goals and dreams. They help develop a higher level of intuition, self esteem, spirituality, and creativity.
The effect of essences has been described as similar to that of meditation, in that they enable the person to access the wisdom of the higher self. They help release negative beliefs that are held in the subconscious mind and allow the positive virtues, such as love, joy, faith, courage, to come into your being. When this happens the negative beliefs and thoughts are dissolved, balance is restored and true healing can occur.
There are myriad reasons to take essences. They help catalyze profound changes, accelerate any healing process, strengthen coping abilities, enhance and balance mental, physical, and spititual health and well being, raise consciousness, increase intuition, and help you to feel more alive and in touch with your values, creativity, goals and dreams.
Take the essences at least four times daily, seven if you can, especially when you wake up in the morning and when you go to sleep at night. They can easily be added to your bottled water and taken with you, accomodating even the busiest of lifestyles. As the essences work on the principle of vibrational healing, it is the frequency with which you take them, not the quantity taken, which is important. In times of need the essences can be taken every fifteen minutes.
In addition to taking the essences orally, they can also be of benefit when used externally by applying them directly to pulse points or on chakras, by adding them to massage oils or by putting a few drops in your bath.
