Working primarily on the mental
body centres, this combination is excellent for distress and
fatigue. Tension held in the brain stem and alta major chakra
(back of the head) is dissolved. One can experience relief
in the frontal lobes, aiding critical thinking and decision
making. The end result is that the crown chakra opens to a
new clarity and mental energy which is calm yet energised.
an excellent essence to use in times of major life transitions.
Combining Walking to the Earth's
Rhythm and Being in Time, this essence helps one to be present
within one's surroundings. Very good to use after a long journey,
to assist all the parts of one's body and mind to 'arrive'.
Also helpful in facing difficult issues in conversation or
in therapeutic circumstances.
Celestial Defender is a combination
of Defender from the Dark and Celestial Siren. Celestial Siren
is like a gentle inner call to experience the divine; yet
in the experience of high levels of meditation, there is some
risk of leaving one's core unprotected while engaged in the
transcendental journey. This essence leaves one protected
and watched while the activity of celestial Siren is enhanced
due to the presence of a protected space. On a more mundane
level, one is likely to feel a clearing of one's head when
taking this essence.
There are times when we are have to address deeply-held or
especially challenging energies, and it is for these situations,
either within a space or within an aura, that the Clearing
& Releasing combination was created. It is also an extra-strength
space-clearing spray, bringing a cleansing to office or home
even when there are very dark energies confronting one. Brings
a very reassuring, positive and strong light to the space.
Use the drops form if there are energies within a person which
need clearing out, for example if there has been any history
of drug abuse.
Contains: Angelic Canopy, Releasing
Karmic Patterns, Pushing Back the Night.
There is a kindredness of spirit
between Defender from the Dark and Protective Presence. Both
orchids display a fierce attentiveness, warding off malign
influences. When one is faced by external negative entities,
this is a very powerful combination to provide protective
armouring for our spirit. It helps to re-energise our determination
to move forward on life�s difficult paths,
with a deeper sense of our true worth. The signature of the
Protective Presence is that of ancient symbolic and protective
spirits of the Chinese dynasties, and the "wrathful deities"
of Tibetan paintings. Defender from the Dark complements this
energy entirely, making it yet more effective.
Contains: Defender from the Dark,
Protective Presence.
Defender of the Light a combination
of Defender from the Dark and Violacea Veritas, and it is
useful in that the powerful impact and expansion of the 3rd
eye (brought about by Violacea Veritas) may in some instances
lead to a person being exposed to probes of negative energy
which can disturb the psyche. This combination allows the
activity of Violacea Veritas to take place under a sort of
protective canopy, enabling a transformative experience from
the essence. One is likely to notice a pronounced awakening
of the 3rd eye / brow chakra, and a strong sense of alertness.
Defender of the Source is a combination
of Defender from the Dark and Source of Life. The latter is
a profound essence which awakens the beauty of the second
chakra, helping us to express our true sexual nature. However,
as sexual energy has its dark side the action of Source of
Life benefits from the inclusion of Defender from the Dark
in providing the sacral area with protection against interfering
dark energies. This essence seems to act like a guard to the
gateways to the soul.
For those times when one needs
an extra boost to one's energy. an essence equivalent to a
cup of strong java, not an essence to take daily or frequently,
but rather in critical instances when extra energy is urgently
required.
This combination has been created
in response to the very worrying situation inn Japan, brought
about by the earthquake and tsunami of March 2011. We are
not permitted of course to say what we believe this combination
essence is able to help achieve, but our aim in researching
this combination was to create a support and protection for
the healthy energetic matrix of the body at the cellular level.
This essence is also noteworthy
for two reasons in particular: it is the first combination
we have ever made which includes the Narnia Sphagnum Moss
essence, with its energetic signature of vibrant, healthy
cellular growth. It is also the first essence we have made
for general release to our customers which includes a small
dose of sea salt. We have long been adding 1% sea salt to
our essences which are sent to Japan, as this is the only
way the authorities there will permit flower essences to enter
the country. Yet in our testing we have always found that
this was not a negative, but rather that the inclusion of
the sea salt was a mild enhancement of the action of each
essence. As most of the bottles of this new combination in
the first few months are likely to be sent to Japan, it made
sense for us to muscle-test the impact of sea salt being added
to it, compared with a non-salted version. And it was very
clear that for the purposes of this essence, the addition
of the sea salt is beneficial to its energetic action.
Contains: Light of My Eye; Core
Release; Moon Child; Wisdom of Compassion and Narnia Sphagnum
Moss.
Energetically almost the opposite
of Double Espresso (immediately above), this combination is
excellent for unwinding at the end of the day. Helps to calm
the overly-active mind, bringing one - very gently, graciously
- back into one's body. Imagine sinking one's head down into
a soft silk cushion, and knowing that there are times when
it is entirely appropriate to set aside concern for the many
responsibilities and cares that one has acquired. Allow the
energies of these three beautiful orchids to soothe and nurture
you, while you relax with a cup of tea.
Gentle Sleep is an enhanced version
of Gentle Geisha, with the addition of the essence of Rhododendron
griffithianum, made by Don Dennis in Achamore Gardens. Rhod.
griffithianum produced a deeply calming, relaxing and peaceful
essence. Yes, this 4th component is not an orchid essence,
but these days, especially in the UK, disturbed sleep has
become a major issue for many, and so the importance of 'bending'
our tradition in this one instance felt appropriate. Gentle
Sleep helps one to achieve a deeper and more relaxed sleep.
Brings a sense of happiness and
gentle yet strong vitality. Has the surprising effect of making
one feel quietly happy, and at the same time clearing mental/emotional
tension and distress. The Baihui (the "place of a hundred
gatherings") in Chinese medicine opens to give the head
a sense of upward lift. The vaihui point is on the summit
of the skull just two fingers width behind the crown chakra.
In the Chinese tradition it governs the major acupuncture
meridians. A good relief in challenging circumstances.
Heyoka is the Native American
Contrary or in England the Shakespearean Fool. Real spiritual
power is non-structured and can work in reverse or backwards
motion taking things out of the aura. More inner space brings
the causal body into place. Energetically works on the outer
aura and then inwards to the inner core and then to the head.
If you are in tears, Heyoka will bring relief; if you are
hiding tears, Heyoka will remind you that you are carrying
that pain and grief. Why hold on to it?
For children and adults who may
have been unloved while in the womb, the energetic and emotional
impact of that circumstance can be challenging. The underlying
message one receives is that of not being wanted, and therefore
being unloved. Love Beyond Love has been created to help address
these embedded imprints on the psyche, to help the inner child
to know that he or she is loved and worthy of love.
Contains: Just Me, Love's Secret,
Moon Child, Unconditional Snuggles and White Beauty.
These four essences individually
each have the effect of improving the clarity of mental processes
& our retention of information. Combined they appear to
help all the more so with this process in students, in people
with age-related memory problems & in cases where memory
function is poor. Appears to improve the processing of information
from the primary storage capacity of the brain & shift
it into the deeper storage areas of the brain, thereby freeing
up available mental capacity. Supports the bio-energetic process
of the brain.
Contains: Liberation/Deception,
Moon Child, Positive Outcome and Serene Overview.
A celebration of the sensual dance
of life. To everything there is a time and purpose, and with
this essence we can remember the value of fun, and the enjoyment
of the senses. Dance again, before you forget the joy it brings!
This essence combines the positive
mental attitude fostered by Positive Outcome, with the high
reach and power of our essence Pushing Back the Night. This
combination provides one with a shift in mental outlook combined
with a strengthening of the solar plexus, and an intensification
of the "ajana" centre between the eyebrows. This
centre is at the heart of our mental body's ability to make
things manifest. So with this essence one remembers how to
'make things happen,’ and one is energized to do so
with immediate effect.
Sacral Regulator is a combination
of three essences: Core Release, Source of Life and an essence
called Child's Play. This latter essence was made by Rose
Titchiner in Norfolk, England as part of her Light Heart Essences
range. She stopped producing and selling her essences in 2009
for health reasons, but the Child's Play essence had been
so vital to Adrian's work for several years that he bought
the mother tiuncture, and arranged for it to be sent to us
at IFER, for us to bottle, so there could be a continued supply.
Along with Vital Core, Unveiling Affection, Unconditional
Snuggles and Sacral Release, Child's Play has been a key energetic
tool for Adrian in correcting blockages and imbalances in
the pelvic pulsation points and receptors. Not a flower essence,
Child's Play is one of what Rose referred to as her "Intentional"
essences. There is a lightness and innocence to this essence
which Adrian has found to be exceptionally potent in his Therapeutic
Energy Kinesiology.
This combination does what the
sum of the parts would be in that it acts on the 1st, 2nd,
3rd, 6th and 7th chakras; it is purifying of the liver and
also produces an increased sense of wellbeing and comfort
within the pelvic region after a period of disturbance. On
testing the essence it is clear that it has a marked effect
on both levels of the dead pelvis syndrome, and does start
the process of renewing and regeneration of the Gate of Life.
We should explain that the term
"dead pelvis syndrome" is used by Adrian for a set
of energetic conditions he frequently finds in his work, whereby
various of the receptors and pulsation points in the pelvic
area are blocked or suppressed. Please see his chart in the
second half of this book for an illustration of the points,
and the essences he uses to re-balance these points.
Outside of the kinesiological descriptions,
one is likely to find that Sacral Regulator gives a sense
of wellbeing, emanating from the pelvic area, and at the same
time an expanded awareness around the head. Sexuality moves
away from "performance" to intimacy and deep communion.
Shadow Defense is a combination
of 3 essences: Defender from the Dark, Pushing Back the Night
and Shadow Warrior. The latter helps us to not have our shadow
side be dominant in our daily life, whilst Pushing Back the
Night brings a powerful temple of energetic support to this
process through strengthening & heightening our inner
alignment. Defender from the Dark provides protection to this
inner process, preventing exterior dark influences from interfering.
In other words, this essence combination provides us with
protection against both inner and outer shadow elements.
If further support is found to
be needed, then Spike Thorn from the Platbos African Tree
Essence range is highly recommended.
Heightens and deepens the soul's
understanding of its journey in this physical body. This essence
goes into a part of the brain known as the limbic system and
connects the causal body with the soul's journey and its divine
contract, thus enhancing the process of spiritual healing.
Assists in the therapeutic effects of other healing processes
in the body as well. On a slightly technical note, Shiva's
Crown connects the dreaming point on the top of the head with
two points on the temporal axis the right and left, the left
being the shadow side of the energy system.
Sleep of Peace helps to promote
deeper and longer-lasting sleep, but in a different manner
from our combination Gentle Sleep. The latter chiefly is helpful
in bringing about a more relaxed state of mind and heart,
to help ease one into a restful sleep. Sleep of Peace on the
other hand is a combination which was originally arrived at
by one of our therapist customers, who found these 8 orchid
essences when combined helped her sleep pattern considerably.
More research on this combination was then done by Dr. Brito-Babapulle
and IFER, both to see how it could be made to optimum potency
for most people, as well as to understand more fully how it
is helping sleep.
Sleep of Peace appears to help
with our processing of memories, so that the mind is in the
first instance able to process the data from the day more
efficiently while one is asleep. After a few or several days
of use it appears to bring about deeper processing and shifting
of old memories which are 'gathering dust' and interfering
with the efficient processing of the daily data. It is this
jumble of old memories, traumas and fears which are often
a significant part of the picture of disturbed sleep patterns.
In general it is best to take Sleep of Peace for no more than
10 days at a time, as the new pattern of deeper sleep is able
to carry on without the essence, though taking a drop at bedtime
once every two weeks should be helpful.
We are not claiming that this essence
offers 'protection' against external disturbances of sleep
(such as Tetra masts), but by enabling the psyche to process
its information more efficiently, it appears that we become
less susceptible to these external factors.
Which of our two sleep essences
is best for one will depend on the individual. The challenges
to our sleep patterns these days (technological and psychological)
are so prevalent, that it makes sense for us to offer these
two options for people to choose from.
Contains: Clear Mind, Boundless
Peace, Settling with a Smile, Purity of Heart, Behold the
Silence, Pushing Back the Night, Sacral Release, Protective
Presence.
This combination is aimed at transforming
the single-child syndrome (which is especially common in China,
due to former State policies), wherein the one child may develop
as a rather self-centered & solitary individual. Due to
the lack of sibling play, the psyche of the soul is unable
to develop fully in the usual social context, leaving them
lacking in the emotional ability to relate in a communal spirit.
It is important that Solus is followed up after a few weeks
with either Wisdom of Compassion or Love Beyond Love, to help
the emotional and compassionate side of the child or adult
to develop more fully.
Contains: Moon Child, Night Soul,
Voice of Courage and Violacea Veritas.
There are times when we need to
protect ourselves, for a variety of reasons. People that work
with light are highly likely to attract challenges from diverse
and sometimes dark energies from time to time. As well there
is the global situation, which is increasingly shrouded in
threatening shadows. Soul Shield provides powerful protection
at multiple levels, to help us bring that light we carry within
safely through with strength and certainty. Now with Defender
from the Dark added to the formula, to give protection in
further dimensions of our chakra system.
Contains: Pushing Back the Night,
Protective Presence, Knight's Cloak, Defender from the Dark.
There is a sense with Spirit of
Life that this combination was the reason its two component
essences (Furnace of Life and Fire of Life) were brought into
being. In part this essence helps to clear 'tribal' blocks
and ancestral patterns in the first and second chakras, helping
one to become more centered within oneself. Much of the rest
of the action of this essence is best described in relation
to the Ming Men point.
In Chinese Medicine there is a
point situated between the Kidneys called Ming Men (translated
as 'The Gate of Destiny'). This key point is the major 'gateway'
for the infusion of all physiological dualities in a way that
supports life and fuels the process of evolution.
If we fail to accept life as an
opportunity to cultivate virtue, or attribute disempowering
meanings to challenging or painful circumstances, then the
fires of Ming Men will be severely diminished and life will
be governed not by highest universal intentions, but by self
generated belief systems.
This smothering of the Ming Men
point leads to further polarised dualities within one's subtle
energy system, which in turn will create further painful challenges
within the body and psyche. Spirit of Life helps to clear
the mist from the lens of perception of the observer even
more fully than Furnace of Life, and so more readily enabling
the truth of any given situation to reveal itself effortlessly.
Spirit of Life is therefore the
combination of two remarkable essences, which embody the highest
universal male and female energies; and it fulfills their
potential as spiritual enablers. Spirit of Life produces a
calm certainty in relation to the inner path of the soul;
this trio of essences has great potential for enhancing the
human soul's journey into light.
Temple of Light was created to
meet the specific problem of an incongruity between The Bai-Hui
point and the inner chamber of the heart, and the seventh
chakra and the fourth chakra as well. Most authorities believe
that there is not real healing when these four points are
out of synchronisation or not connected. There are various
ways that these points could be connected but nothing that
acts quickly or permanently. To assist a rapid resolution
of this problem, this essence was called into being.
Temple of Light (5) was created
to meet the challenge of the energetic instability of prolonged
use of Temple of Light in that there are certain clients who
are unable to allow the connections of the soul to the incongruity
between The Bai-Hui point and the inner chamber of the heart,
and the seventh chakra and the fourth chakra as well.
Contains: Core of Being, Pushing
Back the Night, Renewing Life, Releasing Karmic Patterns,
Protective Presence.
Vital Defense is a combination
of Defender from the Dark and Vital Core. Vital Core has a
close affinity to the "sacral gates" (energy receptors
just below the lower back) and therefore has a rekindling
effect on the Ming Men. Vital Core helps to clarify shadow
aspects of the 2nd chakra, and so this combination can be
seen as a useful adjunct to Defender of the Source. These
essences are all related to the increased need for awareness
of the soul's true purpose without the clutter of the baggage
which we invariably carry.
This combination is the same as
Double Espresso, but with the aligning and calming addition
of Core of Being. Vital Lift gives one a calm, centred 'in-the-body'
boost of energy. Helpful when one is flagging, giving stamina
for focused work.
