Frequently Asked Questions

Flower essences are solar infused, vibrational imprints of a flower/plant in water. They are typically preserved in brandy and diluted multiple times. They address mental and emotional aspects and help us to connect more deeply to our Higher Self. Think of them as a bridge between the body and soul, as they work to regulate the nervous system. If one is quite sensitive energetically, they may be felt more so than to those who are not. However, they will work to strengthen your ability to tune into this subtle energy if you are not typically capable of this. If not felt immediately, trust that your energetic body is receiving it and will work just the same.

Flower Essences are the most sustainable form of plant medicine, using little to no physical parts of the plant. There is a "no touch" method that I sometimes use (depending on the permission that is given by the plant), where the essence is made using only the energetic field of the plant and no flowers are infused. Otherwise, only a small number of flowers are used for the infusion.

Flower essences work on the subtle energetic body, where as tinctures for instance, work on the physical body. They address mental and emotional aspects and help us to connect more deeply to our Higher Self. They help to bring about positive feelings when we are in a negative emotional state. Flower essences are energetic, using the energetic signature of the plant as the medicine. They do not contain physical extracts of the plant matter and can be taken alongside other medications and modalities.

In my personal experience, the plant ally you are meant to work with will always find its way to you. You may be drawn to the plant simply by its beauty or frequency. Perhaps you keep seeing a particular flower show up in your life. Maybe you've been dreaming of a flower. However it happens, you will always be connected with the appropriate ally.

My advice is to sit in silence and listen to the subtle sensations you receive from your intuition, heart space and physical body. Don't think about it so much from a mental perspective and trust that the appropriate essence will come through.

You may also use the search bar to enter emotions, feelings or desired states of being (ie anxiety, grief, higher consciousness, clairvoyance etc.)

If you're familiar with muscle testing or pendulum, these may be utilized as well.

I recommend 4 drops, 4 times a day for 21-30 days (typically how long a 1 oz bottle will last). You may also take some flower essences in moments when you need relief immediately. Flower essences are more effective the more frequently you take them, not by how many drops you take overall. You may take them directly into your mouth, in herbal tea, fresh juices, in a bath or topically onto the skin.

I don't recommend taking more than four essences at a time. However, this should be done by asking permission of the flowers. If you are taking a blend, I wouldn't take any other essences. I personally like to get to know each flower intimately before combining it with another.

Yes! They will receive the benefits just as adults do. For pets, you may add to their water or wet food or administer orally. Children can take them orally (non-alcoholic apple cider vinegar) or topically. Keep the dosage the same as recommended for adults, 4 drops 4 times per day.
