"To
see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour."
- William Blake
Flowers,
trees, mountains and seas have been restoring our bodies, calming
our minds, and uplifting our spirits forever. Just as Renaissance
alchemists turned to the divine wisdom of natural magic to address
ills of the previous epoch; our new millennium is ushering in
a golden age of holistic philosophy in response to 20th century
mechanization of society and medicine.
Vibrational essences have roots steeped in ancient
alchemy and the use of plants, crystals, and curative waters
as sacred medicine tools. Currently they are cutting-edge multidimensional
liquid healers containing the harmony, heart and soul of Nature.
Today
as a multitude of essences are serving to integrate bodies,
minds and spirits, they are also bridging primordial wisdom
and the future of holistic healing.
Flower essences are light-filled infusions of
plant energies, potentized by the sun into pure water and stabilized
with a natural preservative. Co-creatively manifested through
the five elements (earth, air, fire, water, ether) and the cooperation
of the nature
kingdom, properly made flower essences are holographic plant
spirit medicines that embody the plant’s life force patterns,
consciousness and archetypal wisdom.
While flower essences and gem elixirs have been
in use for eons, recent decades have witnessed an exponential
expansion with the field embracing many other aspects of Nature.
The collective term “vibrational essences” includes
those made from flowers, crystals, minerals, sea life, stars,
planets, geological formations like waterfalls and volcanoes,
sacred sites such as healing springs and stone circles. Esoteric
energies are captured ceremonially, for example, power animal
totems, angelic realms, and astrological
events. Absorbing vibrations ranging from the Brazilian rainforest
to Himalayan alpine meadows to starfish to whales to Venus to
higher realms has become a simple matter of accepting a few
vibrant drops of their essence into our energy fields.
Every essence vibrates at the characteristic
frequency of its source and offers unique healing qualities.
Each droplet acts like a divine tuning fork, restoring electromagnetic
balance to our etheric, emotional, mental and spiritual subtle
energy fields through the
principle of resonance. They clear energy blocks at their frequency
level by flooding us with the positive opposing vibration; for
example, replacing the energy of fear with the energy of courage.
If a recipient has no imbalance at their particular frequency,
an
essence has no effect.
Essences
are purely energetic substances without biochemical constituents,
side effects, toxicity or contraindications for use. Their benign,
noninvasive, self-regulating qualities make them safe for all
living beings. They’re gentle enough for those who are
fragile or oversensitive, and suitable for use with babies,
the elderly, and the infirm. They do not interfere with and
are highly supportive of other treatment modalities. Their subtlety
belies their power, however.
Essences have a sphere of application seemingly
as infinite as the gifts that Nature bestows so freely. Providing
equally valuable healing potential for everyday challenges and
deep personal growth, various essences address trauma and abuse,
fears and anxieties, outdated emotions, thoughts and behaviors,
learning and socialization difficulties, daily stresses and
major transitions, grief and loss, and life purpose and soul
path matters. They can release past life and karmic issues as
well as balance current patterns that might otherwise cloud
our futures. Some common uses include: children’s nightmares,
attention and focus difficulties, lifestyle changes, social
anxiety, seasonal affective disorder, hospice support, and animal
rescues, adoptions and behaviors.
Essences
are truly holistic substances. When well-chosen, they harmonize
the underlying root causes of imbalances so related symptoms
may dissolve of their own accord. What most people experience
when using essences is a peaceful release of inner discord and
outer tension. Their profound effectiveness is a demonstration
that wellness lies in enlivening our true nature rather than
going against it, that dis-ease is often fundamentally a discomfort
with or denial of our true selves or the true nature of life,
and that Nature is a primary key to healing.
Essences are microcosms of Nature, as likewise
we are microcosms of the whole. They remind us that we are children
of the universe. Vibrational healing has long addressed the
links between body, mind and spirit, and now quantum physics
offers an explanation of how these links work. At long last
we have a modern interpretation of the hermetic axiom “as
above, so below; as within, so without.”
By bridging our subtle energy bodies and our
souls, they empower us to tap into our innate wisdom and to
remember who we are. They teach us to release feelings, thoughts,
beliefs, and behaviors that are not truly ours, and to rest
in the comfort of being ourselves. By offering the pure essence
of who they are, they demonstrate how we can become the pure
and perfect essence of who we are. And when we aren’t
sure who we are, they help us to see ourselves more clearly.
In encouraging us to explore the world within us and the unseen
world around us, they support us in finding our place in the
universe.
Vibrational
essences serve our era as inspiring antidotes to the complications
and stresses of our pressured lives and culture. By helping
us to unfold as gracefully and effortlessly as flowers unfurl
their blossoms, essences gently bring us into harmony with our
true nature and with the nature of all life. In that wholeness,
we find the inner joy and peace that are our birthright and
in turn can give them to others.
