Flower Essences & Vibrational Medicine

Flower essences, a form of vibrational medicine, are dilute extracts of various types of flowers and plants that are used to treat animals and people. They are similar to homeopathic remedies in that they are diluted and potentized to make them more effective than just using the original flower as a herbal extract. The person who first developed the original flower remedies was Dr. Edward Bach, a famous English physician. He developed the Bach Flower Remedies when he was working as a homeopathic practitioner and devoted the last years of his life to researching and developing his remedies, from 1930 onwards. He wanted to find a simpler form of treatment that would not require anything to be destroyed or altered.

Dr. Bach believed that diseases of the body come about as a result of imbalances or negativity at the level of the soul, and by correcting the problem here healing would result and the body would heal on all levels. The flower remedies act to balance inharmonies in the emotional and spiritual body, and bring about a gentle healing by bringing the body back in balance with itself. They act almost a catalysts to cause healing. There were originally thirty eight Bach Flower Remedies that at that time Dr. Bach felt would correct all imbalances that were possible. There are remedies such as Holly which he found would heal the state of anger, and open the heart, and remedies that deal with a variety of other emotions from lack of confidence to over enthusiasm and impatience.

Animals respond just as well to Bach Flower remedies as people, and seem to have similar emotional imbalances that can be corrected with the appropriate remedy. The flowers are gathered from nature when they are just at the point of perfection and it is important that the flowers are free from any toxins and preservatives. The remedies are made by leaving the flower out in the sun and the extracted essence is then diluted in water and preserved with alcohol to make a mother tincture. The resulting remedy is then diluted in spring water to make a solution that can be taken by an animal or a person.

Subsequent to Bach's work other Flower Essence Societies have been formed and remedies have been developed that are appropriate to that particular area, or the times we are living in. The most important of these are the California Flower Essences that are developed from native American plants in the Sierra Nevada foothills in California. The Flower Essence Society has developed an extensive research program and been very important in helping people understand and use Flower Remedies as a healing tool.

Bach Flower Essences

Bach flower remedies are dilutions of flower material developed by Edward Bach, an English physician and homeopath, in the 1930s. The remedies are used primarily for emotional and spiritual conditions, including but not limited to depression, anxiety, insomnia and stress.

The remedies contain a very small amount of flower material in a 50:50 solution of water and brandy. Because the remedies are extremely dilute they do not have a characteristic scent or taste of the plant. Vendors state that the remedies contain something called the "energetic signature" of the flower, and that this can be transmitted to the user.

 

Floralive Flower Essences

FlorAlive® is the next evolutionary step in flower essences, allowing the creation of much more powerful and deeply acting preparations. How the UNCUT Flower™ essence process arose, and its relationship to Dr. Edward Bach flower essences is described in an article on our home page titled: "Dr. Edward Bach is Smiling."

The creation of FlorAliveŽ flower essences was possible due to the herbal research background and clinical practice of Dr. Brent W. Davis. As a young practitioner, he founded Phytotherapy Research Laboratories, Inc. (PRL) to manufacture the highest quality fresh plant herbal extracts possible for health professionals. PRL continues to this day, and its products are used and highly esteemed by leading health professionals internationally.

At the turn of the millennium, however, Dr. Davis shifted the focus of his research and practice to the discovery, clinical proving and production of our patented UNCUT flower™ essences.

This research took him to some of the last pristine places on Earth, where he encountered the divine Source frequencies of certain extraordinary plants, often growing around vortices of enormous "information transfer" downloading to Earth. Traditional healers frequently lead him to these remote and sacred environments.


Aware of the power of intention in achieving a goal, Dr. Davis created patented methods of collection and extraction that are in harmony with the healing intentions of Nature.

(The designation "UNCUT" refers to a unique, co-operative, non-invasive approach to the plants themselves, necessary for the highly sensitive process of full transfer of their healing information.)

Today, the FlorAlive® "family" consists of people around the world who, in various ways, support our appropriate technology and our contributions to the betterment of their communities and our planet. These include: porters, guides and shamans in the high Andes and Amazonian basin; botanists and conservationists in the bush of Western Australia; herbalists and naturalists internationally; kahuna elders in Hawaii; as well as thousands of health professionals and others who have used and benefited from FlorAlive® essences.
