Really interesting, thank you for taking the time to write this up! I have a bit of a different view regarding people who are openly skeptical. More specifically- around 90% of the men I've ever worked with were the spouses of my clients, and a number of them were very open about the fact that they were only there because their wives/girlfriends were "making them." lol I always told them that if they wanted to give this flower essence thing a try that they don't have to believe in it, they just had to take their drops consistently. And damned is some of these guys didn't see some truly profound shifts take place, despite their skepticism! So yes, I certainly agree that someone being invested in their flower essence work is the best case scenario, but don't think it's strictly necessary. Along that same train of thought, I consider how well flower essences work for animals and babies/children. They are kind of neutral, blank slates, so to speak- neither believing non believing - and flower essences are hugely impactful. So yeah- flower essences are so fun, aren't they? More on reddit.com

Not from the Bach line but there is Blackberry from FES (California). I guess it would be good to better understand where the loss of interest or momentum is coming from as we should be selecting essences from the pattern of imbalance rather than just the outcome we'd like to see. Maybe Tansy, maybe Cayenne, or Hornbeam. Really depends. More on reddit.com

From my understanding, they are different. The flower essences require 3-4 hours in the sun to imprint the energetic signature of the flower into the water. These effects don’t act on the physical body like a tincture does, but on your energetic body, your vibration. (We have 3 bodies, our physical body, our mental body/mind, and an energetic body). Sometimes this energetic signature can be transferred without sun using heat/boiling/etc, but without the meditation/intention beforehand the plant might not transfer over its energetic signature. The plant needs to know you want some of its energetic essence as the tincture is created. My understanding is that if you don’t meditate and connect to the plant, the flower essence returns to earth when the plant is cut. The meditation during the preparation (and talking to the plant) is what allows the essence to transfer. You can always try meditating with the tincture you have though. I still think the tinctures can connect to the spirit aspect of its mother plant, and it costs you nothing to try. Meditate with your tincture, try and connect to the spirit of yarrow and ask it for help. Talk to it, tell it what you need. You might be surprised at what that does!! A great book on flower essences is “Flower Essences and Vibrational Healing” by Gurudas. It’s a channeled book, from an author who channeled an entity named Gurudas. He describes techniques used in ancient Atlantis and Lemurian times. It’s one of the best books out there on making flower essences. Making flower essences is fun and easy! If you don’t want to buy a book chat gpt can walk you through step by step how to do it. My advice: talk to the plants, ask them for help. They do listen. More on reddit.com
