Flower essences (different from essential oils) are liquid, potenized plant preparations which convey a distinct imprint, or etheric pattern, of a specific flower. Because they contain only minute traces of physical substance, flower essences are not classified as biochemical medicine. They belong to a new modality of potentized remedies which derive their active powers from life forces within substances. Flower Essences expand our understanding of health care, recognizing a relationship between body and soul, and the interweaving of spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical aspects of wellness.
