Datura stramonium can be used to heal the deep wounds of trauma and purify oneself of negative energies, whether they are coming from external forces or from yourself.  Datura stramonium is weedier and more tenacious than datura inoxia. If you are deep in a dark hole, it is the better choice to borrow datura stramonium’s incredible fierceness and phoenix-like ability to bounce back no matter how bad things are.

Lily of the Valley is used in flower essence therapy to reconnect to the divine when we feel lost and to regain child-like innocence and trust after being wounded. It’s medicine can potentially help overcome the feelings of betrayal and despair over the lies of society that conceal hatred, racism, xenophobia, and inequality and to help see the good in people and the good things people are doing to help each other.

Snowberry is a plant for the resistance. It gives us the strength to resist and persist. It gives us strength to get through darkness and through winter. Use snowberry flower essence to overcome emotional trauma and be ready to accept things and yourself as they are here and now, moment to moment. 

Valerian is used in flower essence therapy to encourage self-esteem and self-love and reduce the need for external validation from other people so you can be happy being you even when alone. Valerian soothes, calms, and helps with frayed nerves and mental exhaustion.

Yarrow is used in flower essence therapy to create an energetic shield of protection around sensitive and empathic people who easily become stressed and overwhelmed by their surroundings and the people in their proximity. Yarrow can strengthen and protect your personal boundaries so other people’s energies are kept out and your energies are kept in and aren’t absorbed by others. It excellent for psychic protection.

Flower essences embody a living tradition of magical herbalism. In use since the early 1900s, flower essences are not tinctures but diluted cold water infusions of the fresh flowers which are harvested in a mindful ceremony and prayed over. Developed by Doctor Edward Bach in the early 1900s, they are meant to be ingested in homeopathic amounts to help with emotional pain such as fear, uncertainty, loneliness, oversensitivity, burnout, sadness, and trauma. Flower essences made from poisonous plants are safe to ingest and can be used for spiritual cleansing, magical rituals, anointing, and plant spirit communion.

We sell flower essences as 30 ml stock bottles. A stock bottle is simply 50% best brandy and 50% aquifer water. Three drops of a flower’s mother essence are put into this stock bottle and we ship it to you ready for use. The mother essence is the pure cold water infusion of the fresh flowers which are harvested ritually, prayed over, and infused in the morning sun for a couple hours before straining and using to make stock bottles. The finished flower essence you receive is a diluted version of this mother essence preserved with the alcohol. There are only three drops of a mother essence in each bottle of our flower essences.
