A note from Linn:

Its no secret that I am a huge fan of flower essences.

As a herbalist, I practice wholistically, meaning my philosophy is to consider the whole person - emotionally, mentally and spiritually. All these other aspects of us affect our physical health.

Herbs are excellent for treating physical problems, however most dis-ease starts as an imbalance in your thought patterns (attitudes) or emotions. There can be no true healing from illness unless the emotions and attitudes that caused it in the first place are also healed.

Flower Essences can be thought of as "medicines for the emotions". They work on emotions and attitudes, helping to gently brin them back into harmony. As such they make wonderful preventative medicines and help improve your quality of life.

The best thing about flower essences is that they are a very accessible healing tool that anyone can use. You don't need to study for years to become qualified in their use. They are very easy to use and affordable, making them perfect for home use. However many professional therapists, natural and mainstream, also use flower essences as part of their healing regimes because they complement and enhance all other healing modalities - natural and medical, helping to bring about better healing outcomes in shorter time frames.
