Flower Essences
What Are Flower Essences?
Flower essences are a form of healing using the frequencies of flowers to change negative emotional patterns.
Trauma, anxiety, depression, self-limiting beliefs and patterns of negative thinking can all be changed by using flower essences. Flower essences do not directly impact the body, but by adjusting the emotional components that contribute to disease, many find relief emotionally and physically.
How Do I Use Flower Essences?
I offer them in oral spray form which can be taken as you require them. You can also just add a spray to whatever you're drinking. In most drinks, the taste isn't noticeable. You can also apply them topically if you'd rather not use them internally.
Are Flower Essences and Essential Oils the Same?
Short answer, no. Flower essences are made using only the flowers of a plant and is a form of energetic healing. Essential oils are made from any aromatic part of the plant and are a biochemical form of healing.
How Will I Know it's Working/What Changes Should I Expect?
It does depend a little bit on how self aware you are, those around you may notice changes in you first. But some things you might notice are:
- New realizations
- Relevant dreams
- Changes in the way you look at things
- Changes in the way you see yourself
- Peacefulness
- Positive outlook
- Release of accumulated tension
- The ability to remember a formerly-painful event with a sense of peace and closure
How Long Do I Have to Take Flower Essences For?
It really depends. Day to day moods and stresses change quickly with flower essences, deeper rooted problems take some time.
You will likely feel fairly immediate changes but for the changes to be more long term, you may well need to take the blend for around three weeks to a month to notice real, more permanent changes.
A good rule of thumb is one month for every year you've had the problem. It takes time to learn a new habit, and this is what will be happening. You’ll be reversing habitual ways of reacting to negative events and replacing them with more positive ones.
Are Flower Essences Safe?
Yes flower essences are safe for everyone! Babies, pets, elderly, pregnant or nursing women, people on medications, and people with allergies can all use flower essences!
How Many Flower Essences Can I Take At Once?
The short answer to this question is 6-7 individual flower essences.
A blend already has that many, so only one blend at a time.
Why Is There Alcohol in These/Can I Get It Without?
Firstly, don’t worry, no one will be getting drunk from using flower essences! Brandy is the preservative in my flower essence blends both premade and personalised. If however you do need a blend without alcohol I can make one for you, although it will not have the shelf life that a blend with the brandy in it has.
The amount of alcohol is minimal and you will actually find more alcohol occurring naturally within your digestive system than is in a blend.
How long do flower essences last?
Head to Toe for Families flower essence blends have a shelf life of around 2 years. They have a small amount of alcohol as a preservative.
EFT
What is EFT?
Emotional Freedom Techniques or tapping is a simple process where we tap on meridian points on our body to reduce negative thoughts, beliefs, blockages causing pain, doubt, anxiety. We tap on these points while using phrases to acknowledge and change the way we are feeling. It could be described as a combination of Chinese acupressure and modern talk therapy.
How long does tapping take?
That is really up to you, if you are wanting to get rid of the immediate feeling that you are experiencing it may only take 10 or 15 minutes, however if you are looking to release the feelings you experienced about past events it could be worth putting an hour aside to work through those things.
Baby Massage
How Long Does It Take To Learn Baby Massage?
I teach baby massage over two 1 hour sessions, I do this because then you can go away and practise the strokes and we get the opportunity to connect again so you can clarify and go over the strokes again and I can answer any questions you might have.
I don’t live near you, how do we work together?
I offer phone consultations and also video call for consultations as well. Over the phone we can do EFT or Flower Essence sessions. Via Zoom we can do EFT and Flower Essence sessions I can also do a Baby Massage class via video call if that is what you are not able to get to me.
Get in touch and lets see what we can work out
Who Provides What For the Sessions?
You bring a change mat or such like, something to keep baby warm and all the other things you would take when you take baby out.
I will provide oil for the sessions, I will give you handouts of diagrams of the strokes to help you going forward. The classes are made up of just a few mums n bubs as too many is quite distracting for everybody. The groups will be small so I am able to provide each of you with the help you need and answer all questions.
What if my Child Is Older?
Well I massaged my children all through their childhood and until they were no longer living at home. So if you are wanting to learn some massage techniques for older children I can help you out, it will be a relaxed session with just you or perhaps a small group.
