ABOUT THE BOOK
This groundbreaking new title is the first to bring this simple, gentle and effective therapy to a general market. Being hailed as the medicine for the 21st century, flower essences are already used successfully by pain clinics, child psychotherapists and vets, as well as all manner of complementary therapists. These miraculous essences act subtly but effectively to ease depression, restore energy and vitality, purify and detox, heal past traumas, release supressed emotions and bring relief for many other problems. Now you too can experience the phenomenal power and energy of these essences, which go straight to the heart of the most challenging problems, fast! They are perfectly safe, with no side effects, so are perfect for self-help and for giving to family and friends. They work equally well on women, men, children, animals and even plants. The introduction provides background on the history of energy medicine and flower healing in particular as well as a guide to finding the right essence or combination for every situation.
Chapters focus on a number of different emotional issues ranging from stress and grief, anxiety and fear, exhaustion and depression, to sexuality and relationships. Between ten and twelve different essences are suggested for each issue as well as help with grounding, protection, intuition or developing your psychic powers. Each entry includes a brief description of the essence, the negative points it can address and the positive invitation it offers. Over 100 flowers are illustrated. A repertory cross-reference section enables you to look up your problem and find the most appropriate essence. Names, addresses and websites of essence makers and suppliers are given in the appendix.
"...Safe, side effect-free and very easy to use, flower essences can be given to treat a remarkable range of mental, emotional and physical conditions, ranging from PMS to depression, and from toddler tantrums problems to sleeplessness.
Effects can be immediate. Already being prescribed by a wide variety of therapists, including homeopaths, naturopaths and psychologists, flower and other essences are now widely available for the public to use.
This highly informative book (the first of its kind) looks at 150 essences from all over the world, explains what they can do for you and your family, and offers an invaluable introduction to the astonishing healing power of flowers.'

This is the `taking off your dark glasses' remedy, a good one for getting you out of the habit of looking negatively at the world or at others. It can be very helpful for those times when you seem always to be looking for the worst, or for what's not right.
Celandine shows you that you do have a choice about how you perceive things, and helps you to focus on the good in your life or in the world: to see that glass as half full, rather than half empty.'
