What is Flower Essence Therapy and How Does it Work?

Flower essence therapy is a natural healing modality that uses the vibrational energy of flowers to stimulate the body's natural healing abilities. Flower essences have been used since the middle ages and Australian Aboriginals have used Australian bush flower essences to enhance emotional balance. This therapy involves the use of flower remedies, which are made by infusing the energy of flowers into water and preserving it with alcohol. The resulting essence contains the vibrational imprint of the flower and is said to have the ability to affect the energetic body and promote emotional healing.

How is Flower Essence Therapy Different from Other Alternative Therapies like Aromatherapy or Herbal Medicine?
Flower essence therapy is different from other alternative therapies like aromatherapy or herbal medicine because it is based on the energetic properties of flowers rather than their physical properties. While aromatherapy and herbal medicine may use the physical properties of flowers to promote healing, flower essence therapy uses the energetic properties of flowers to promote emotional healing and overall well-being.
How to integrate Flower Essences into daily life:
Flower Essences are very versatile and can be easily implemented into your daily routine in many ways. Individuals can use flower essences for self-care and personal growth such as relaxation and sleep, they can incorporate it into their wellness routines and they can use flower essence remedies for children and pets.
What are the different Flower Essence Therapy techniques?
Oral administration: Flower essence therapy can be used in the form of drops, or sprays. It is generally mixed with another liquid such as water. You can also ingest it by placing the liquid on or under your tongue.
Topical administration (lotions, creams, baths): Flower essences are also very beneficial when applied topically from the bottle, as well as using a mist around the body, direct application to pulse points or energy centres on the body, mixed in creams or added to baths.
What Should I Expect During a Flower Essence Therapy Session?
During a flower essence therapy session, the practitioner will typically begin by discussing your emotional concerns and health history. They will then recommend specific flower essences based on your needs and create a personalised treatment plan. The flower essences can be taken orally or applied topically, depending on the practitioner's recommendations. In Australia, many practitioners use a blend of Australian bush flower essences which is personalised to every individual bottle based on your current emotions and feelings to bring a natural harmony back to your mind, body, and spirit.
