ok
so i did a kind of shaman-y thing
i guess yesterday
i bought some flower essences
now before you say
that's not very shaman-y
all flakey new age chicks buy flower essences
or
what the hell is a flower essence
or
how is a flower essence shaman-y
let me tell you
i've been seeing flower essences
it feels like everywhere
all of a sudden
and it's probably because i'm looking for tinctures
and if you make tinctures
you might also make flower essences
but
i have found myself to be very dismissive of the whole
flower essence experience
and
i'm not sure why i'm having that reaction
when i was a teenager i discovered the whole bach's flower essence system
at the health food store
and i tried a bunch of them
and
i never felt like any of them did anything
except the rescue remedy
which i found to be incredibly effective
especially in the spray and the cream formats
i'm pretty sure i had those in my medicine cabinet
throughout my twenties
but
by my thirties
i was swayed by the stronger effectiveness of herbal supplements
that i never really looked back
but then yesterday
or the day before i'm not 100% sure now
someone i follow on instagram was recommending
other makers they love
and one of them was a flower essence maker
and i trust them
if they say the shit works
i believe it
so i was intrigued and i liked the name
and it turned out to be a guy
which also intrigued me
because i think of flower essences as being
ya know
pretty heavily weighted toward women
[dr bach notwithstanding]
so
interest piqued i looked through his wares
and i don't need to be spending money
but
read these and tell me i wasn't gonna buy them

For those of us who have struggled with deep rooted ancestral patterns such as addiction, alcoholism, depression etc., this essence unravels the generations of ancestral karma and societal conditioning we have endured. Joshua Tree grants is a new beginning, a better sense of identity and a rebirth into a joyous life ahead.
During the Summer of 2018, I received a distinct calling to travel throughout the American Southwest and make a collection at various vortices. A vortex is an amplified energy point on Earth where people usually experience things like joy, tranquility, insight, emotional or physical healing amongst other things. These areas are known to be great spiritual sites, a lot of times with beautiful scenery that our ancestors revered for healing and ceremonial purposes. Paranormal activity is also very common amongst these sites. This collection will always hold a special place in my heart for the immense and also intense, emotional and spiritual healing it has given me. I invite you to explore the unknown mystery of the American Southwest vortices.
Flower essences are water infused energy patterns or vibrations of the flower stabilized in alcohol. They are used to help us with emotional imbalance. The flower being the highest manifestation of the plant, holds the powerful vibration and essence of the plant. When taken, the essence raises our vibration, expands our consciousness and clears our energy fields of negativity. This helps clear the physical body of any imbalance.
A healthy body vibrates between 62-68 MHz. When our vibration reaches 58 MHz or lower, we become susceptible to sickness and ailments. The goal is to maintain a high and healthy vibration so that we can decrease the risk of our emotional imbalances reaching our physical body and creating disharmony.
I handcraft my essences in Santa Fe, New Mexico using filtered water and preserve them with local Santa Fe Apple Brandy. Each bottle is also charged with Reiki Energy. I only use flowers in the wild or in my own garden, free from car pollution and pesticides. I connect to each plant speaking with the devas or "spirits". Once I've made the Mother essence, I work with the essence to develop a true understanding of the medicine being offered. Note* This is not a tincture!
2)Known for its hallucinogenic properties on a physical level, this plant is ready to take you into the unknown with its energetic flower essence properties. Sacred Datura is a safety blanket of sorts, one you wear when you know you have to deal with darker forces. It shields us in such away, that maybe we are no longer here. Maybe we can now travel into other dimensions and see things in a new light. It helps us shift into newness during times of transition, shamanic journeys or meditation. Let this essence take you on a wild, inter-dimensional ride!
