A practitioner’s guide to the energetic healing system of flower essences
• Gives a comprehensive process, including case examples, for using essences to alleviate stress, trauma, anxiety, and physical illness
• Offers practical and innovative guidance for researching the healing patterns of new flower essences, including the observation of alchemic signature, flower form, and color
• Details ways to upgrade and standardize qualifications for flower essence producers and practitioners to ensure the integrity of the field
Drawing on 35 years of experience as a flower essence producer and practitioner, David Dalton comprehensively explores the field of flower essences. He honors the pioneering work of the past and details the developments that are hallmarks of the field’s present.
Dr. Edward Bach discovered the first 38 flower essences in his work to alleviate the root cause of disease, which he found to be a split between one’s personality and soul. In advancing this work, David Dalton details how to make and use additional flower essences, beyond Bach’s original 38, including how to store them to maintain their potency. He gives methods for determining the action of the flower essences he has used for specific situations, including plant attunement, reading the elemental energy of each plant, and observing flower structure as it relates to the chakra system.
Sharing his in-depth interview process, Dalton explains how to review a client’s past and present stresses, traumas, emotions, behavior patterns, and physical imbalances to create a full clinical picture and determine which essences to use. He shows how to select and combine flower essences based on the client’s need for support and grounding and their readiness to process past experiences. He then shows how to target thoughts and behaviors for change, how to move stuck emotions, how the body processes stress and trauma, and how to release trauma and triggering shadows with flower essences.
Elevating Dr. Bach’s work for modern needs, this book brings flower essence healing forward into an advanced system for a healthier life.
