A Good Read - Essences for Empaths

29th January 2024

White Bluebell flowers

Are you highly sensitive to other people’s emotions and energy? Do you intuitively know things without anyone telling you? Chances are you’re an empath. Many people who take flower essences are empaths, and while the ability to empathise with others means you feel beauty and connection very deeply, the flipside can be feeling the pain of the world and being unable to filter out other people’s emotions and energies.

Resolving Anger & Inner Conflicts

20th December 2023

Rose of Sharon flowers

The Inner Peace Essence helps you to release feelings of anger and helps to bring resolution to inner conflicts. It’s also helpful if you find it difficult to deal with anger in other people or find your own anger difficult to deal with. It can also be helpful when there is difficulty connecting with any emotions at all. The emotion of anger is something that we are all familiar with even if we may not be particularly comfortable in its presence. It can be a positive energy if we are able to use it in a balanced and mindful way but quite destructive if it is unmanaged and disowned. You can find out more here:
