DEEP HEALING WITH FLOWER ESSENCES

Real healing requires going beneath the symptoms to the underlying layers of imbalance and incomplete growth processes. Traditionally, our culture has not supported deep process-oriented healing. We're still encouraged to mask our physical symptoms with pharmaceutical drugs and suppress our true feelings and just "get over it". These methods of dealing with our pain and wounding tend to exacerbate the underlying imbalances. Our psyches, however, are wired up to try to get our attention when we are out of balance. That's how and why we create illness, accidents, drama, and disease. If we continue to ignore the messages, sometimes our unconscious gets more adamant or we cycle a similar scenario over and over. Utilizing the healing tools and transformational facilitation that are currently available, however, can help us deal with our imbalances and create healthy change and growth.

Every thought, idea and behavior that we humans have are a result of vibrational energy patterns. These patterns are contained in the complex web of our subtle anatomy which includes the chakras, meridians, subtle bodies, and nadis. An important and powerful healing tool that is often overlooked and has the capability to interact with our vibrational energy patterns is flower essences. Essences can facilitate deep energy shifts and re-balancing on spiritual, emotional, psychological, and physical levels.

Essences, which include flower, sea, animal, star, and gem elixirs accomplish their healing slowly and subtly. When ingested, they enter the circulatory and nervous systems and the meridians, then they are etherically directed to where they are needed by the body. They provide that extra love and support in our lives on a daily basis to encourage us to shed those limiting patterns and behaviors that do not serve our highest good. Patience, trust, and intention is necessary when using the essences because realigning our subtle anatomy takes time. If we spent years internalizing a dysfunctional pattern, then it may take months or years to transform it.

Something to be aware of while using essences is the fact that you may encounter a healing crisis. This can happens when we bring up an old layer of stuck energy that we've been avoiding for too long. Most often you will experience physical symptoms along with the emotional discomfort. I'd like to share a personal experience that demonstrates this phenomenon. I woke up one morning and could barely get out of bed. My middle back felt as though someone had kicked me hard. Of course, that hadn't happened but I was working through a layer of childhood wounding where someone had energetically kicked my third chakra out of my body. This healing crisis was about me taking back my power and asserting my will.

It's important to identify a healing crisis as such, breathe into it, don't judge it, and allow it to come to the surface where you can embrace it and integrate it with gratitude. If it feels unbearable, please don't hesitate to seek some professional counseling or at least the support of a trusted friend.

For the most part, flower essences are gentle and forgiving, and it is impossible to overdose on them because they are self-adjusting. Also, they are non-toxic and non-invasive. Nature is said to hold everything we humans need for our healing. With thousands of essences now available, there is an essence or essence combination that can benefit everyone.
