What are Flower Essences?

Flower Essence Magic ✨ People often ask “what are flower essences?” 

Flower Essences are a vibrational medicine, similar to homeopathy. Alchemy of water, earth, air, sun (fire).

Everything in the Universe carries a vibration, Spirit, this isn’t ‘woo.’ It is truth, the atoms that make up Creation are always moving: humans, colours, stones, plants, animal kin, butterflies, water, etc. All vibrating. Emitting & receiving wavelengths. We are energy.

We can see these different vibrations w/ colours for ex, Red=slower, Violet=faster vibration. We can also hear vibration through sound, music, rustling of Cottonwood leaves in early Summer…

Flower Essences resonate at the same vibration as what they are created of ~ Yarrow Flower Essence will have the same resonance, or vibration, as Yarrow. Obsidian will have the same vibration as Obsidian crystal. Embodying this wavelength & Spirit. Also embodying their “essence,” their being.

When we work w essences {flower, stone, gem, environmental} we are harmonizing that vibration into our bodies, into our cells & reminding our entire being of being in alignment w Creation. We attune our own vibration to that of the Plant we’re working with. Harmony. Remembering we are Nature embodied. We are attuned with this resonance. Our cells are attuned.

Working w flower essences may bring big & subtle healing/shifts in various ways. They act as a reminder to our bodies & spirits of their own alignment, original instructions. In harmony. I find they often help with support, vs magically ‘fixing’ {you don’t need to be fixed}.

Sometimes we may notice visions/dreams, connections, messages, changes in physiology, emotional changes, clearing, balancing emotions & patterns, helping ease aches, loss, grief etc. These shifts may extend to our ancestors & past/future generations, healing lineages.

Of course this is a *very* simplified explanation, it’s a start. I teach workshops on them, and we go much deeper.

Flower Essences are one of my fave medicines to craft & to work with for myself, my little one, pup & patients. I love including them in Postpartum bundles for the whole fam🌸
