Close your eyes and imagine yourself in a rose garden - notice how you feel when thinking about the big, colorful, fruity and powdery-scented roses filling your nose.
Now imagine yourself walking in a vast field of wild white daisies, waving back and forth in the breeze and the sunshine.
How about a redwood forest? Or burying your face in a bunch of huge ruffly peonies? Or sitting underneath a willow tree? Or admiring a pristine pink lotus or water lily in a pond?
That feeling that you feel - whether in reality or through visualization - is indicative of the benefits and special qualities of that particular flower, tree or plant.
Those qualities can be captured, collected and infused into water, Mother Nature's greatest recording device. Water, like the shiny substate on CD's or the magnetic strip inside cassette tapes, records information. In this case water can retain the special qualities of a flower.
Flowers are the part of the plant used for the collection, because they contain the highest concentration of energetics within the plant. A flower elixir is a solar infusion of that flower in water, which can then be preserved and stabilized with alcohol. As the perfect encapsulation of the quality of the flower, an elixir can be taken internally or applied topically, shifting your mood within minutes.
For example, when Cheryl came to see me, she was terrified of flying on a plane. For years she refused to travel.One month after taking a flower elixir regularly, she got on an airplane!
After six months of taking flower remedies, she had flown so much that she started to accumulate enough frequent flyer miles to book free travel! She was overjoyed to be able to reconnect with family + friends in other parts of the country + take vacations internationally.
I’ve spent the last 20 years working with flower elixirs and observing their transformative effects on people.
At a time when we are more distracted, fatigued and stressed than ever, flower elixirs not only help us be our best selves, but they also show us our full potential.
Different from aromatherapy, flower elixirs don’t have a scent and they work through the acupuncture meridians. It is a liquid infusion of a flower or plant's 'chi' or life-force, whereas an essential oil is distilled or extracted from the plant into a highly aromatic oil. Essential oils also require huge amounts of plant material for distillation, but in the making of a flower essence, only a small amount of blooms are required -- making it one of the most sustainable forms of natural remedies.
Flower elixirs are super simple to take - you can put five drops in your mouth, at least five times per day and/or you can put a dropperful in your water bottle and drink that throughout the day. Literally takes a couple seconds each time!
In addition to specializing in flower elixirs, which are the traditional method of taking flower remedies (internally), we also infuse the flower essences with wild-crafted essential oils into aura mists, anointing oils, balancing serums and bath salts to be used externally. With the different methods of application/intake for the flower essences, it becomes super easy to incorporate their healing energies into our daily lives.
But I know that flower essences can be a bit of a mystery … so I thought I would write down everything I know about the real-life benefits you can receive from taking our flower-powered elixirs.
When I sat down to write, I was surprised by all the insights that poured out of me. I guess I shouldn’t be that surprised - I’ve been working with flower essences for over 20 years - I’ve consulted with hundreds of individuals and top spas on how to get the benefits of flower essences, and I’ve literally spent over 20,000 hours consulting!
Even so, every time I think about flower essences + their effect on people, I get so inspired!
Everyday we get heartfelt emails from people sharing their experiences with our flower elixirs. I recently got a really sweet phone call from a woman who’s been married for 14 years - she said that after using the Infinite Love flower elixir regularly, she feels like when she first met her husband - super attracted + heart fluttering when she sees him. She was shocked at the level of heightened love she felt for him from using the elixir.
And we have incredible stories from many long-term clients who have been using the elixirs for up to fifteen years! Think: transformations in relationships, career, jobs, where they live, what they do in their free time, the level of dreams-come-true is pretty wonder-full …
I know, I know … I get it. I’m still amazed by it every day + I’ve been taking flower essences for over 20 years!
Flower elixirs work through your acupuncture meridians to create more balance.
One recent scientific study showed flower remedies as highly effective at reducing environmental stress on the body (EMF’S from computer use + other electronics).
Another study showed a 50% reduction of prescriptions in pregnant women due to a drastic reduction of stress through flower essences.
And what we’ve noticed from our own 15+ years of empirical research is that people most often feel a difference in their state of mind in as little as 3-5 days, if they’re using the recommended amount: five drops, five times each day.
Additionally, when people use flower remedies regularly over several months, I’ve noticed that there is a three-stage process of transformation that most everyone experiences.
I wrote almost 20 pages about all the little details in each phase. It not only prepares you for what to expect, but it also shows you what's possible in a very short amount of time.
It’s WAY more jam-packed with info than I would usually do for a blog post, so I created a free e-book for you to download:
If you have used our flower elixirs before, feel free to comment below about your experiences, so that others can learn from you + be inspired by you!
Love + flower petals,
