Aloe Vera Flower Essence is needed by those burning the candle at both ends. These individuals may have an innate abundance of fiery forces, but tend to overuse these forces, resulting in burnout. Typical users of Aloe Vera flower essence are workaholic types whose drive is so intense that they neglect their emotional and physical needs, often sacrificing rest, food, and social contact in order to accomplish their goals. Such an attitude cripples the ability to experience life in a heart-felt way, impoverishing the 'feeling life', and draining the body and vital energy. While will-power can carry such persons quite far, eventually they reach a point of exhaustion, burnout, or breakdown.
Aloe Vera flower essence helps the soul and body aspects to come into greater harmony, by bringing the nourishment which comes from the 'water' polarity of life - the 'flowing' qualities of renewal and rejuvenation. When the soul learns to balance the fiery forces of the will with the fountain of feeling from the heart, a tremendous outpouring of positive creativity and spirituality can be realized.

Cosmos helps those souls whose higher mental bodies are not properly integrated with the speaking and thinking functions of the nervous system. Such individuals often feel frustrated and overwhelmed as they attempt to convey the true inspiration of their Higher Self through their thoughts and especially through their speech.
These persons can be flooded by too much information, rendering the speech pattern rapid and inarticulate; or the thoughts may be superficially glib but lacking in deeper concepts. In extreme cases the speech may actually become dulled and the soul forces introverted, as the personality no longer makes contact with the higher mental function. Cosmos harmonizes the thinking and speaking patterns with the higher soul functions, so that the true spirit can shine forth from the personality.

It is thought that one might blow upon the dandelion seeds, and as they drift into the wind, they will carry your wishes to your lover. The soul needing Dandelion essence feels a natural intensity and love for life. Such individuals are compulsive “doers” who enter with great zeal and zest into many activities.
Unfortunately, they can over-plan and over-form their lives beyond the natural capacity of the body to sustain such intensity. Furthermore, such persons may become unable to experience more contained moments of reflective activity. The unexpressed inner life of the soul and the harsh demands on the body collide to create extreme tension, especially in the musculature.
The Dandelion flower teaches these individuals how to listen closely to emotional messages and bodily needs. As tension is released the soul feels more inner ease and balance, allowing spiritual forces to flow through the body in a dynamic, effortless way.

Healing Properties: Dogwood flower essence promotes unity on the physical and energetic levels, and healing from abuse. The Dogwood creates a lightness in your body. Abuse victims will often carry trauma with them in their physical and spiritual bodies, even long after the trauma has passed. Our bodies have the unfortunate ability to hold onto trauma as a physical manifestation of fear. The victim’s body becomes a shell, with a protective outer aura to prevent further damage – even after the damage has already been done. Erase this aura of protection and release your physical and spiritual life with this flower remedy. Begin to let your spirit and body move with grace!
Latin: Cornus nuttallii

Pansy is an immune builder as it draws out from within the individual the purest quality of heart and mind.

This essence helps to clear those conditions on the physical level.

Healing Properties: The I. Fulva of Southern Louisiana is a feisty, little Iris if ever there was one, which is why we have given her the nickname "Rainbow Passion." Standing only two to three feet in height, the I. Fulva was originally limited to the vicinity of New Orleans where she grew wild along the bayous and canals in the heart of the city. Her claim to fame is the fact that she single-handedly introduced the color red to the entire genus of Iris.

The positive Snapdragon flower essence type possesses strong physical presence. Such persons are highly energetic, with powerful wills and libidos. In some cases, these energies are so pronounced that they may override the other chakras of the body. In other instances, these forces may have been culturally repressed, causing the energy to be improperly released elsewhere in the body.
With both these patterns of imbalance, the individual will misdirect digestive and sexual forces which rightly belong in the lower energy centers, distorting them through expression in the communication center. The spoken word is misused in a harsh or destructive way, with the tendency towards biting sarcasm of lashing criticism. There can be extreme tension in the jaw and mouth, grinding of the teeth, or the need to eat foods which provide continuous biting, crunching, and chewing activity.
Snapdragon flower essence helps such persons to re-direct their powerful metabolic and sexual energy into its rightful channels. At its deepest level, the Snapdragon flower essence helps the soul to distinguish its use of creative forces-especially those which radiate from the lower energy centers, and those which are used for spoken word. By harmonizing the relationship between these energy centers, the soul evolves in its use of creative power.

The Sweet Peas have been climbing up the bamboo trellis outside my office door since early March and they are finally in full bloom. The mixture pink, purple, white, crimson, and blue flowers are singing in the sun, heralding a happy recognition of summer.
I planted the Sweet Pea in honor of my dear friend Lisa who we lost her battle with cancer in December of 2008. She was a prolific gardener and her Sweet Peas were the finest every year. It was about this time each summer when Lisa would arrive for a class or a session with a bundle of Sweet Peas tucked in burlap accompanying edible snap peas, radish, a first summer squash, and some lettuce.
The time was on ripe June 31st to make the Sweet Pea flower essence that I had been wanting to make for some time. The summer sun was rising into a blue sky day and there seemed to be more birdsong in the air than usual. I carefully worked around the Sweet Peas choosing the opened blossoms that seemed so ready and eager for the task on hand. The Sweet Pea essence was ready to set in the sun and I placed it amongst the rooted plant…aside the little garden gnome.
I went to my bookshelf and pulled the poetry book written by Lisa entitled Bright Omens. I opened the book somewhere in the middle, randomly, just to see what message I may find there.
Here is the poem:
From Where You Are: You Get a Message to Me In memory of my sisters Today a heron stopped
I looked into the blue twilight
of her wings and saw the breadth
of freedom that belongs to you
Sky in your throat whispering
there is more to you than this body
fixing that soft sentence
like a net and
I could finally
fall
After reading the poem I sat for a bit. I would usually go back into my office to work, but I felt a tug from within and walked back outside to the Sweet Peas. There, near the essence bowl, lay a bright blue feather….
I share my story with love and gratitude that this essence is made with the overlighting grace of Lisa and her cherished heart.
Sweet Pea essence is perfect taken together with Shooting Star.
Shooting Star is for those who have a special destiny to complete and must find the endurance and confidence to share these unique gifts with the world. Shooting Star is for those who feel alienated and yet have many offering to share with the world.

Healing Properties: The essence of Trillium offers the virtues of balance between the material plane and the spiritual plane. It assists one in understanding the bounty of love, abundance, and earthly pleasures by way of its three petaled shape which reflects the Trinity, and the lore of the feminine. The bulb of this flower was once made into a powder and rubbed on the body as a ‘love medicine.’ When the heart is opened Trillium will align the individual’s energy toward abundance and goodwill for all. Those who have a fear regarding money or acquiring monetary gain or loss will do well to take the Trillium essence.

Healing Properties: On the mountain slopes, Wall Flower’s bright yellow glow is seen in little splashes here and there. Often standing alone, one can see how the term, “Wall Flower” was associated with those who stand in the background of a social event, not feeling as thought they can join in. Wall Flower assists those who feel alone, shy, lonely, or unable to meet the social protocol of a party, social event, dance, or any group activity. Its yellow hue connects to the solar plexus, or third chakra, and brightens ones inner hope and courage along with a new found Self Will.

Isha has hand-crafted a new flower essence using the radiant White Magnolia flower.
White Magnolia is used during a healing crisis, moderating the aggravation of symptoms that often happen when healing takes place.
It regulates the strength of the healing energy provided by the essence mix to the optimum level and stabilizes protection from the outside energies, including X-rays, negative states of consciousness, and all forms of radiation. And I found these points repeated in many descriptions:
Key Points:
• For developing insight and understanding for issues one is struggling with;
• Helps one deepen spiritual awareness;
• Helps spiritually minded people with balance and integrity.
A beautiful connection to The Mother of Auorbindo and the Magdalena energies are realized through the signature of the White Magnolia.
SRI AUROBINDO ON THE MOTHER
“The lights are the Mother's Powers -- many in number. The white light is her own characteristic power, that of the Divine Consciousness in its essence.”
