Plant Spirit Essences

I use the term Plant Spirit Essence in most cases when describing my own essences and formulas rather than Flower Essences or Flower Remedies. This is because all parts of the plant can be used to make an essence, with varying results to the vibration then imprinted into the menstrum (in my case water). When I began to formulate, I was a flower purist, shall we say, but over time and through direct communication with the plants I realised that any and all of the plant could be used, not simply the flower.

What is interesting from a plant spirit medicine perspective, is how different plant parts will give different aspects of their healing vibration. Seeds for example will hold a variation that is connected to but not exactly the same as that held in the leaves. Flowers probably hold the pinnacle of the healing vibration but their energy can be so expansive and hard to resonate with, for us mere mortals, that much of their vibration is left unintegrated, we assimilate what we can. This is why long term use is so beneficial and can produce life altering results (the more often we take in the vibration the more we are able to integrate and assimilate it), and yet instant effects can be felt, such as with Bach's Rescue Remedy.

We are dealing here folks with an aspect of healing that can be baffling to the logical mind, and as you don't need to understand the hows and whys to receive the benefits, I'll leave the more 'cosmic' aspects for a more pontificating blog post.
