“You are the voice of the flowers. They need you to speak for them.” It came through so loudly
and clearly that I was taken aback. However, I was otherwise occupied at the time, mothering,
practicing, teaching and writing my first book, The Essence of Woman, so I put it on the

over my garden into the rainforest beyond when I spotted what seemed to be a ghostly apparition peeking though
the greenery. Drawn to it as if magnetically, I came across a large, white ethereal-looking flower, one of many, on a
spindly tree, which became visible after I pushed my way through the undergrowth and tangle. It was around the time
when my second daughter had just started her periods and was experiencing
agonising pain at the outset. This flower spoke to me! It said, “Let me help

In the latter case, it is well known that a mother’s influence is one we carry, regardless
of gender, throughout our lives. Is it not the mark of a man that he cut the apron
strings as he is stepping out into the big, wide world so that he can exert his
masculinity? By having power over the women in his life, especially when it comes to
his sexual partners, he is able to exert his male dominance, a natural urge scripted
into his male biology. This attitude has been especially evident in a numberGof

Weeds are only so named due to someone’s prejudice. They have been classified as second-rate plants because
someone, at some time, deemed them to be less spectacular or less worthy of attention based on a set of criteria that

For example, many weeds have a highly nutritious medicinal use and have been used for many hundreds of years in
Nature’s Herbal Chest; for example, dandelion, which is a powerful liver tonic.
Furthermore, weeds are highly adaptive; they love being in the wild and free. They grow rampantly so they have a
strong vital force and reproduce under a variety of conditions. Generally, they nurture and support the underlying
animal and plant life that they cover, providing valuable animal corridors and protection for delicate plants that

In recognizing that the planet is a living entity, and flowers, as the colourful crowning glory of plant life, carry a
healing consciousness for humankind, we can begin to understand that flower essences are one of Mother Earth’s
gentle ways of enabling the human race to heal. The way that this occurs is that the essences bring about inner
alignment and connection to our natural inner knowing; that part of ourselves connected to the Source of life itself.
Through this reconnection, we can fulfil our highest potential as living beings on this planet.
EIVINGWhen we use medicines made from flowers - flower essences - we are directly accessing Nature’s wisdom and working

the Human Kingdom arrived upon the scene fairly recently, in the greater scheme of things, that the planet has been brought

Doctrine of Signatures of each individual herb was applied to a distinct aspect of the human anatomy. Significantly, science

Mainstream medicine focuses on the physical body alone, whereas vibrational Mind-Body medicine focuses on the vital
forces that animate and breathe life into the bio-machinery of living systems.
The subtle energy anatomy describes the systems of energy that animate the dense matter of the physical body.
There is a hierarchy of ‘subtle bodies,’ all of which participate in the full and complete functioning of the sentient human being.
The ‘etheric body’ is the first body in the complete subtle energy network.

Females and males are biologically designed to be different. And what’s more, their differences are built into the way

CHAKRA TWO - THE WATER/SECOND CHAKRA
As we enter the second chakra, we enter change. Our singleness becomes duality and we have
obtained a degree of movement and fluidity.
Change is essential to the expansion of consciousness - this is how it evolves. Through change,
we discover difference. In intimacy, through the other person, we hold the mirror up to ourselves
and can recognize difference.

making our way in the world at large. Here we arrive at a point of self-identity- knowing who we are
and having the confidence to go out into the world, self-empowered and able to effect a change.
Located here are the major organs of digestion and the associated energy of transformation - we

CHAKRA FOUR - THE PIVOTAL CHAKRA
The heart chakra is located in the central pivotal place between the three chakras of the lower self
and the three charkas of the higher self. As the core of the chakra system, it is the inner spirit that
unites all the other forces above and below - above the mental realms and below the worldly chakras.

Ether is the element of the fifth chakra. Ether is fine particulate matter so small that the particles cannot be seen by the
naked eye. It is the substance that moves through the meridians of the body, described and mapped thousands of years
ago by the Chinese and utilized in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Known as Qi, it responds to thought; ‘where thought
goes, qi flows’ is an axiom of TCM. It is known in esoteric circles as ‘etherium fluidum’ and as the name suggests has the

Intuition is our inbuilt guiding system. If you want to access your intuitive side regarding a question about yourself
ask, ‘Does it make my heart sing or sink?’ This is the question that reveals the truth of our intuitive knowing. If we can
honestly make decisions in our life based on the body-mind experience of answering this simple question, then we are
following our intuition.

This is especially true when heart energy is closed off for fear of being hurt. This effectively puts up a barrier to intimacy,
where an open discriminating aura is needed.
Acacia helps to balance the aura, whether it is too open or too closed.

“As the baby begins to focus her eyes and ‘see,’ the most important and reassuring vision is that of her mother’s face. In
fact, what the baby needs is not only to see the face, but to see the face adoring her. Babies need total adoration and
acceptance at this stage of being. According to developmental research, a baby can discern at a very early age if her
mother is smiling at her. The one genetically encoded, visual circuit in the baby at birth is the ability to recognise and
respond to a human face at a distance of 15 to 30 centimetres. This indicates how important it is for the baby to connect
visually with
the mother. The
reason
that the baby needs a reassuring smile is to validate her own existence. She does

(universes within universes, beyond our own). They can be likened to the organisational intelligence of the living world/s

and all life forms that inhabit her.

There are angels that oversee the Animal, Mineral and Plant Kingdoms, as well as the Human Kingdom. Among these
are our closest companions - our guardian angels - along with others who watch over virtually every aspect of human

Follow the directions you receive: You will receive guidance in any number of ways: a voice in your head, a dream,
a vision, knowing or an intuition. You may even hear the solution from someone else’s lips, even though the person is
not consciously focusing on your situation. Your Guidance may direct you to take some action or steps to resolve the
dilemma, such as calling someone, visiting an old friend, or seeking help from a Natural Health practitioner.

response to our innate evolutionary drive for higher and higher states of awareness. It does this by enabling us to
move forward with ease and grace through emotional attitudinal blocks that hold us back from expressing our highest
potential. For example, in healing a past relationship it allows us to become aware of the unhealed aspects from a

restricted. This essence can help her realize how powerfully erotic and sexually stimulating her breasts are to her partner
and understand where his sense of ownership is based in a need to protect his woman.

passed over, she managed courageously to heal a lifetime of emotional wounding just before she died.

Harbouring secrets causes the qi of the body to knot and remain contained. This containment will be expressed in the

Cassia grants us the power and strength of will to recreate ourselves. It works on addictions - to substances, relationships,
comfort zones or work situations - by allowing us to tap into our deep inner strength to let go of the old and embrace
the new, whatever that might be, without the comfort of the addiction to shore us up.

Jenny was a girl who loved to party. Married for twenty-something years with two adolescent boys, she still managed
to live the lifestyle of a single girl - drinking copiously every weekend, a string of extra-marital liaisons and a cavalier
approach to life. She was an extremely fit person, and her gallbladder has been removed at some point in her past. She
presented in my clinic with severe inflammation of the Achilles tendon that was preventing her from her usual program
of daily running.

By physically clearing the Gallbladder channel, she had been able to clear the emotional pain that had stopped her
from going forward in her life. By assuming control once more, she is taking back the fragments of her soul that she
had given away to someone else.
Jenny stayed true to her decision, one that accorded with her best interests. Two months after her last phone call to
Mark, she declared that she had completed her first pain-free run for six months. Shortly after, she announced that

Masaro Emoto, a Japanese scientist, devised experiments to show the effect of sound vibration on water. He demonstrated
that water takes on a pattern in its molecular structure, consistent with the sound that it has been exposed to. Emoto
clearly showed that the quality of the sound determines the quality of the form created by its vibrational resonance (the
sound template).
Our bodies are 75 percent water at the cellular level. The sounds that we make (using our voice) affect the cellular

EssenceBlends
Blends
The brilliant blue colour of this little flower, and the shape of the petals, like angels wings, is reminiscent of Archangel
Michael, whose classic role is to protect from psychic invasion.
The fifth chakra assists us to express our creativity. Sometimes we can be blocked because fear freezes the flow of energy
and we lose access to our Higher Self. Commelina reinstates qi flow, opening us up to our creative expression.

Men don’t know what women’s fear feels like. They are biologically programmed to protect their mate and family, and

It also addresses those women who haven’t yet tapped into their own feminine intelligence and power, but rather detour
their soul and life’s energy into that of their spouse or mate, believing that this is the woman’s place.

‘know their place’ and ‘stay out of men’s affairs.’

A word of caution is necessary here. In taking this essence, a person may ‘prove’ and face the ghost of their aloneness.
This means that they may feel their aloneness more acutely for a short time. This is part of the healing process. If the
feeling persists stop taking Cordyline for a day and use Crisis Calm, then resume the Cordyline when feeling settled
again. The loneliness will resolve in time to feel more comfortable.
For fear of being alone, abandoned or deprived.

The 12 leaves are in a circular arrangement lying flat on the ground. It is as if the physical form, with its 12 meridians
that distribute the vital force throughout the body, is ‘flat’ without the necessary vitality derived from the Mind component
to vitalize it. It even has the energy it to sit up and take notice of its surrounding. There is a maxim in Traditional Chinese
Medicine that goes, ‘Where thought goes, qi (energy) flows and where qi flows, blood follows.’ This saying shows how
necessary closely thought and body energy are connected. TCM is holistic medicine, meaning all aspects of the person
- mental, energetic and physical - are interconnected and mutually vital in

Many people lose years of their lives in this way, lost in the realm of their own thoughts until one day they wake up and

The secret to fully living life is to be present in the moment. Dandelion assists us to come into the present to fully
appreciate being alive. Some relationships are conducted in this way. The heart connection is rarely made because one
or both parties are living in the realm of their own thoughts and can’t close their thoughts down to be present to the
other.

Communication has the power either to create harmony or disharmony in our relationships. From an energy perspective,
communication is the language of the heart - it is through our words and body language that we convey the intention
behind what we say to others. The other aspect to communication is hearing or listening. We also need to ‘hear’ with
our heart.

to maintain a sense of constant connectedness in the way a woman wants arouses in them feelings of inadequacy or
shame that they cannot reciprocate. This underlying sense of inadequacy means that any conversation challenging the
way they express their undying devotion will throw them into stress - straight into the left orbito-frontal cortex of the brain

of the children’ and drove Jason to martial arts each week to make sure that he got the exercise he needed to support

Simultaneously, she felt hurt that he was emotionally withdrawn and grief that their relationship was virtually nonexistent. There was no touch between them and they had not shared a marital bed since she left it, declaring that his
loud snoring disturbed her sleep, some time after his retirement. She felt empty and yearned for connection to satisfy her
need for closeness and intimacy. She did not want to spend her life simply looking after her grandchildren.

When we cannot tap into the inner strength that lies beneath the surface, we can feel strangled by the profusion of
life ‘in the fast lane’ and become anxious and fearful that we will not be able to manage. This ‘fear of life itself’ is the
underlying emotional cause behind asthma. Lantana is good for asthma.

Similarly, when a significant person in our lives, such as a parent or partner, overburdens us with their worries for us, we
can feel choked, smothered and can pick up on the negative energy as a vote of no-confidence. ‘If she or he doesn’t
believe in me then I mustn’t be capable.’ The ensuing lack of confidence leads to worry and guilt about doing the right
thing - or the thing right!
From an energy

Anger expressed in a balanced and controlled way becomes the spearhead of assertion and is the key to personal
power. The assertive person is doing what they want to do and can relate to their immediate environment with a sense
of authority, obtaining a response from the world around them.
Anger expressed in an uncontrolled and imbalanced way arises when the expression of personal need has been
suppressed, depressed or constrained. Being a powerful energy/emotion, unexpressed anger, in some people, triggered

h
The key to letting go of resentment is forgiveness. Forgiveness is a conscious act that opens the compassion of the
heart. It is the first step towards healing and calls back the fragments of the soul given away in the absence of personal
empowerment. Lomandra assists us, as women, to start the process of letting go, which is the first step to forgiveness.

In the words of Mark Twain, “Forgiveness is the fragrance given off by the rose to the heel that crushed it.”
Essence

Forgiveness is not a thought but a feeling that arises from a deep inner state of peace and connectedness, and asks
simply that thoughts of hurt and injury be let go. Forgiveness recognizes that the longer we hold grudges, resentments
and anger in our heart towards another person, place or being, the longer we maintain a belief in our own victim-hood.
Forgiveness is a conscious act of taking back our own power.

Macaranga opens the heart to self-love and self-value. It helps a person recognize that love is not just about giving,
giving, giving, but it is also about receiving. Just like the heart organ that receives blood in equal measure to that which
it disperses, a person who gives and gives needs to receive, otherwise they eventually become empty. If the heart did
not receive blood but continually gave out, it would collapse.

Many species of Morning Glory seeds contain d-lysergic acid amide,
poisonous. Ergoline derivatives have been used in the treatment of migraines, but perhaps the most well renowned use
is in the manufacture of the psychedelic drug LSD, popularized during the ‘flower power’ era of the 1960’s and 70’s.
LSD was seen to ‘open the doors to perception’.

Morning Glories are excellent seed voyagers and their efficient propagation is one of the reasons they are declared a
weed. The other reason is that they are capable of fast growth given the right conditions.
As strong, twining climbers, they can grow into the canopy of the rainforest. Their rampant growth can successfully form
a curtain of stems, which is capable of destroying intact rainforest canopy. They are mainly found growing in heavily

Morning Glory is also for healers so that they do not become arrogant, believing that it is they who are doing the
healing. It assists them to call on the light and let it pour through them, rather than work with the notion that it is them.
By changing this attitude, they do not tire or find their healing sessions to be burdensome. It also helps them to pass on
their knowledge graciously, in the attitude of giving service to humanity.

possible birth defects. It also denies the nerves that bring pleasure during orgasm, the stimulation that normally occurs
by the engorgement of blood in the genitals during sex, resulting in frigidity.
Stuck blood comes about through a combination of lack of movement (exercise) and cold penetrating into the lower
body congealing the blood flow. Native Hibiscus assists painful menstruation and helps with sexual frigidity by increasing
blood flow in the pelvis.

Native Hibiscus helps with feelings of sadness after a miscarriage, triggered by seeing other Mums with their babies. It
also helps a woman who feels unsupported by friends or family while going through a miscarriage.
It helps those who have karmic links to a baby in a past life. It cuts the ties and lets each entity go to their highest good.
Native Hibiscus clears the ties that bind her to her part-term baby, energetically clearing the space for a new soul to

“My, but you are like your father,” and you may not be able to see it. However some of these patterns may be the
seeds of destruction that can go on later to be the underlying cause for a disease condition to arise. For example, a

its dire effects. That is not true in the light of new research into gene expression. This new evidence tells us that gene

FOR RE-PROGRAMMING OLD BELIEFS
Pink Shamrock helps those who need to re-programme beliefs they have acquired within the family, that are no longer
working for them in the wider world. It can be used with Milkweed to clear out old patterns learnt in childhood that no
longer serve us. It also assists teenagers to get in touch with their own truth and act from a position of inner strength
when immersed in the all-consuming energy of the peer group.
EIVINGPink Shamrock works on the Kidney and Heart meridians, supporting easy transition from childhood through adolescence
to adulthood.
