FAQ's

Here are some answers to some common questions about flower essences and this site.

What are flower essences?
The biggest question of all! What are flower essences? Short of magic, they are graceful healing tools made from flowers.  They are vibrational infusions of the energetic patterns of flowers into spring water. 

Are flower essences the same as flower remedies?
Yes, just semantics; Dr. Bach originally referred to his work with flowers as flower remedies and now it is common to see both terms used.

Will flower essences get rid of my problem?
No, but they will help you to live in greater harmony. Thus what you perceive as a ‘problem’ may shift and no longer be a ‘problem’.

If they don’t get rid of my problem what to they do?
They help to soften the emotional body.  This shift fosters greater fluidity especially in areas where we feel stuck. The greater fluidity helps us to shift how we respond to our emotions. Our emotions are meant to be fluid, to have movement, ever notice the word ‘motion’ in emotion. When we get stuck or feel stuck we start to perceive that as a problem.

FAQ’s about working with flower essences therapeutically.



One Offs -vs- Long Term Care
The value of working together over time cannot be over stressed, long term care is a vital to the healing process. By working together over time we have the opportunity to dive deep and uncover the roots of our biggest challenges. So while one offs are helpful, I love it when my clients commit to work together for at least 3 months as the benefits to be gained this way exceed what can be done in one session. 

Self Treatment -vs- Working with a Specialist
I understand many people like to experiment with self treatment, this was how I first learned about essences. Self treatment is a fun endeavor but I do encourage working with a specialist. Because of the tremendous value an outside opinion and view point provides. We cannot see our blind spots, that is why they are called blind spots. The work I do with clients is a mix of coaching and therapy. I use the past and future as  guides to understanding the present. Then I find the right essences that support personal growth and development. 

Power of Commitment
When we make a commitment it activates powerful forces in the universe. Because we are energy and energy needs to be directed and commitment is a great way to direct our energy, focus and potential. The power harnessed through commitment will serve your healing journey. In whatever healing path you undertake whether it is working with me or another person consider how you will use the power of your commitment to serve your well being.

Resistance
Resistance is normal. Yes, I will say it, it is normal for you to want to resist making a commitment to the healing process or even addressing what needs healing. We ever  are always moving towards homeostasis and change work, threatens this. It forces you to re-calibrate and you will have to shift to find a new balance. When we come up against resistance simple acknowledge it as a natural part of the process and then  proceed towards your highest potential.
