What is a Flower Essence?

It is the energetic imprint of the life force of a particular plant. The carrier substance is water, the universal solvent, with a proportionate amount of brandy which acts as a preservative.

Although all flower essences tend to look and smell the same, they all have different ways of interacting with the human body, mind, emotions and spirit.

Flower essence therapy was first developed in the Western world in the 1920s by Edward Bach, a British physician and homeopath. When he began his search for a holistic medicine he was convinced of two things:

1. The human body had the innate ability to heal itself, so he was looking for something that would activate this natural process.

2. Medicine should above all do no harm, which of course is part of the Hippocratic oath by which all physicians swear when they become doctors.

Bach's 38 flower remedies have circulated the globe since then, and his methodology both for making the essence and for collecting research data has been duplicated by many other flower essence producers around the world.

By 1983 a morphogenic field around flower essences had been created. This is when six or seven developers from around the world, including Pacific Essences, began to publish information about the properties and gifts of flowers other than the 38 originally discovered by Bach.


Flower Essences Descriptions

The collection of 24 wild flowers contained in Kits 1 and 2 is a representative sampling of the energy of Vancouver Island and the Pacific Northwest. It includes the brilliant oranges of the Arbutus tree, and the magenta haze of Fireweed. The flowers come from roadside ditches - Blue Lupine, and from the depths of cedar and pine forests - Candystick.

Many of these plants were used by the Indians as food supply - Salal, Blue Camas, Hooker's Onion. Some were used in a medicinal fashion - Pipsissewa for kidney problems, Plantain poultices applied externally to draw out toxins, Nootka Rose hips as a source of vitamin C.

They interact with many aspects of the human energy system and offer healing of the heart, mind and spirit. These plants embody the unique and ancient vibration of the Pacific Northwest and we are proud to offer them as our contribution to the global endeavour of flower essence therapy.

Each essence is available in 7.5 ml kits, and individually in 7.5 ml and 25 ml.
