All About Flower Essences for Health

For over 30 years, I have traveled and researched herbals in many countries and cultures. My “classroom” includes jungles, rain forests, Native American reservations, clinics and hospitals, households and ancient texts. Every indigenous culture I studied made flower essences in a variety of ways to assist healing. My background spans generations of herbalists from Italy and they all made flower essences. I perceive essences as a part of herbal therapy and offer them as an adjunct to herbal and nutritional healing. They are used topically or internally to assist immune function, neurochemistry and endocrine balance. Simply said by my mother, “they make you feel good”. 
 My knowledge and interest in flower essences expanded when I gave birth to twins with immune deficiencies. They were not expected to live and did not respond well to conventional medicine. The pediatrician told me to “go home and do what I know to do”. I began to organically grow and make essences. They had dramatic healing after several weeks and the twins continued growing healthier. I developed many immune essences over several years.
 By the time I had a third child, I had Crohn’s disease in the small intestine. Working on myself taught me how to heal the personality using essences, an evolving process. By age 2, my youngest son lost half his hearing, diagnosed as nerve damage. It made quite a stir in the medical community when Jason’s hearing returned 100%. Family members were hard to work with. However, I developed over 130 essences and learned how to use them in ways that helped other clients with cancer and challenging illnesses and emotional patterns.
 In hospitals, the essences are used topically, utilizing the skin as the largest immune and detoxifying organ. The brain is a hologram, so any healing touch activates an electromagnetic and neurochemical response throughout the body. The effect is immediate.
 Subtle body healing with essences initiates a message to the limbic brain in 1/100th of a second. The limbic brain utilizes the responses throughout the body. I blend essences to assist the autonomic nervous system reducing anxiety, pain, every day or unusual stressors, nausea from chemotherapy and side effects of many medications. The goal is always to increase quality of life, longevity and peace of mind. These essences are used in complementary hospital programs for bone marrow, stem cell transplant patients, chemically dependent recovery, weight management, maternity care, sickle cell anemia, chronic pain, palliative care, diabetic support and sleep therapy.
 Ancient cultures used flower essences to alleviate toxicity, emotional imbalance and headaches. Essences were used topically to focus energy to an injured area. Healers balanced large nerve centers generating energy from the spine, called charkas. Disease can manifest from restrictions or injury to any part of the spinal energy. Flower essences enhance balance and focus healing energy, while herbals nurture related organs and their functions. The combination can bath the nerve centers in pure energy and light from electromagnetic resonance. 
 As healing occurs, the recipient begins to speak their truth and walk the path of self awareness and self mastery. The combination of herbals and flower essences assists individuals to reach their highest potentials in health, beauty and conscious growth. They take decisive action, experience less frustration, illness and develop latent talents. Skin and hair become radiant. The mind and heart rest in peaceful awareness.
 The use of flower essences in plant medicine encourages us to develop our roots in herbalism and seek more knowledge for health. The reward is allowing the body to accomplish what it does naturally, heal itself.

Enfleurages -Fragrant Flower and Herbal Essences of the Ancients

Enfleurages – Fragrant Flower Essences of the Ancients

Ancient cultures first produced flower essences as enfleurages. Fresh flowers were repeatedly soaked to saturate a medium, such as animal fat or oil. I use the humectant properties of vegetable glycerin to pull off the flavors, scent, and catalyzing properties of highly scented flowers. My process takes 1-3 years to extract the fragrant healing properties. When applied to the skin, body temperature will produce a subtle scent as well as chemical action, catalyzing healing from within as well as from external influences. These may help people or create beneficial environmental elements that enter our lives as teachers and benefactors.

As a healing agent, enfleurages sedate and soothe the skin. They may be safely applied to soothe skin, such as the face or to open wounds or inflamed skin. Their action is slowly released over a period of 8 hours. Enfleurages are applied undiluted directly to the skin. They are especially beneficial for children, pets and people who are sensitive to alcohol.

Their subtle fragrance is non-offensive to chemically sensitive people and very attractive to both men and women. Enfleurages immediately affect brain chemistry and neurochemistry, subsequent hormone production, as well as the electromagnetic energy affecting the chakras. Therefore, they have similar healing qualities of essential oils and flower essences. They balance the immune, endocrine, and neurological systems by passing the blood brain barrier and connecting the 7 chakras to the folds in the cortical brain. This connection will hand the intellectual mind into Universal Consciousness. The time for expansion is upon us as we move from a separateness experience of nationalism, religious, and political sects into a group consciousness benefitting all as one.

Scents that Heal

Enfleurages either sedate or stimulate brain chemistry to affect inner harmony. Choose and attractive scent for an appropriate response. Enfleurages are more fragrant than many of the Petite Fleur Essences. 

Enfleurages can be applied as a moisturizer to dampened skin reducing fine lines by holding moisture to the skin.

Sedating enfleurages may reduce anxiety, fever, hyperactivity, hot flashes, emotional outbursts, crying, pain, red, itchy or weeping rashes, sneezing, rhinitis, hiccups, insomnia, headaches that throb and angina.

The following examples are sedating enfleurages:

Lemon Balm calms desires, hyperactivity, fevers and allergic rhinitis

Lilac enhances self-love and forgiveness to heal a broken heart.

Magnolia increases self-appreciation, protein assimilation balancing the small intestine and pituitary hormones.

Wisteria opens the heart, increasing cardiovascular flow, and feelings of warmth and generosity to others.

 

Stimulating enfleurages increase energy, stamina, alertness, memory, passion and creativity. They help to abate aching, malaise, melancholy, and depression.

The following are stimulating enfleurages:

Curry puts talents into action.

Gardenia attracts love and lovers.

Iris enhances artistic creativity

Jasmine (Queen of the Nile) increases sensuality

Old Blush increases energy

Sweet Annie increases memory, alertness, and memories of good times.

Texas Marigold Mint has an anise scent that warms a cold heart and increases peripheral circulation to the limbs.

White Ginger , a favorite of hummingbirds, hopes the highest centers of the creative mind.

Petite fleur essence blends

I am stunned at what is happening to me, and I have you to thank! I bought Recovery, Harmony, Abate from Anger, Reduce Stress, with the idea to heal from 16 years of dealing with chronic pain and complications from a severe back injury in 1993. Instead, I am healing from my childhood abuse! How do I know? The empty hole that has been with me all my life is GONE! And in its place is a bubble of great joy and happiness! Oh, Judy, how can I thank you in mere words? If I had the means, I would send all seven of my brothers and sisters the essences I have been using, for they are all walking around disconnected and empty from the brutal, and I mean brutal, beginnings of their lives. Miracles do happen! So, when, and I am saying when, the means come to me, they will each be getting a very special package from me, with your essences! I love you, Judy.  Continue reading

Aromatherapy Love Notes

Love Notes

Everyone has a unique scent they carry throughout life. This scent originates genetically just like a peach or an apple, enhancing our reproductive, social and maternal or paternal behavior. The people and experiences we attract are often determined by our unique odor.

The Antique Rose love note enfleurages attract the people who can be trusted into your intimate circle of friends and lovers. They carry the spiritual nature of the Petites as well as the soul of each rose. Antique roses are cuttings from the roses imported to the West at least 150 years ago from the Orient. They contain the original immune system of the most ancient roses, as well as the genetic memory of the history of man. Wear 2 drops of these love notes topically on the heart chakra. They can also be combined with essential oils and flower essences and applied topically or diluted in an atomizer and misted. Use 2 drops per ¼ cup of water.

Men may enjoy combining Antique Rose enfleurages with sage, lavender, and curry essential oils or other Petite Fleur Essences.

 

Alfredo de Damas is a fragrant cabbage rose encouraging self-healing and attracting love from others. A friend and teacher studying to be a principal wears it in combination with rosemary and vanilla essence in the classroom to improve student/teacher relationships.

 

Lady Eubanksia promotes the compassion of a safe, encouraging trust from others. It is often worn by teachers and lecturers, as well as lovers.

 

Fortune’s Double Yellow has a subtle scent that quiets internal chatter and dispels loneliness. Wear it to reduce anxiety or jealousy about a lover.

 

Old Blush has a tea rose fragrance that sustains energy and enthusiasm to warm the cold heart of a lover.

 

Rose Gardenia has a subtle scent meant to fulfill the heart’s desires. This rose was parented by an ancient China rose and heralding the age of climbing roses.

Organic Steam Distilled Essential Oils

ORGANIC STEAM DISTILLED ESSENTIAL OILS
Produced to be Pure
by Dr. Judy Griffin
 
I organically grow, steam distill and produce pure essential oils without hexane. I make blends with AromaHealthTexas organic essential oils for layman and patients in hospitals and clinics. The herbs are organically grown onsite and steam distilled, with the essential oil being separated by glass. This process avoids the use of hexane - a toxic chemical solvent. My AromaHealthTexas blends are used with stem cell and bone marrow transplant patients, as well as other patients being administered chemotherapy treatments. These blends are used before and after surgery by hospitals, and also used with sickle cell, chronic pain, pulmonary, cardiac, ADD/ADHD, voice therapy, gynecology, obstetrics, weight, chemically dependent, and allergy patients to reduce nausea, stress, anxiety, pain, fatigue, memory and enhance healing. The Healing Power of Flowers documents many aromatherapy complimentary care uses in an hour long program, that airs on television and is available for direct ordering on my website,www.aromahealthtexas.com. 
 
Hexane is a petrochemical product. obtained from raw crude oil. used by many manufacturers to extract essential oils. Their products may be labeled organic due to their coming from plants. (Currently there are no organic labeling standards for personal care products.)   Hospitals and clinics prefer to avoid essential oils extracted using hexane. Hexane produces a metabolite that causes cross linking of proteins and amino acids. This leads to degradation of the peripheral nerves in the arms and legs called peripheral neuropathy, Other common symptoms of inhaling hexane is nauseaheadachespoor coordination and atrophy of skeletal muscles. Although hexane may be cooked off, the effects can be dangerous to sensitive and immune compromised individuals. Hexane is used as a solvent to manufacture canola oil.     
 
I began steam distilling my organically frown herbs and roses after giving birth to immune compromised twins. They were more responsive to application of herbs and their oils on the skin. The skin is the largest immune organ and the first line of defense against toxins and allergens. Everything that is touched their skin had to be pure. I also fed them organic foods, often home grow by their father. The twins built immunity to overcome 105 degree fevers, asthma and anaphylactic shock to become the healthiest children at school and very environmentally friendly adults. By the time the twins showed definite improvement, my youngest child lost half his hearing at 2 years old. I was told it was irreversible nerve damage. I immediately began application of my essential oils and Petite Fleur essences and my son’s hearing returned to 100% in 3 weeks! Nature provided a self-healing therapy for all of my children. I promised to make these products available for others to enjoy for radiant health and pleasure.
 
Aromatherapy is a safe and effective complimentary therapy for health and beauty. It is the oldest art and science of holistic healing. Inhalation of pure essential oils changes brain chemistry in 1/100th of a second. Application of AromaHealthTexas essential oil products increases circulation, lymphatic detoxification and relaxation of muscles, nerves and tissues within minutes. I tell my clients and patients, “the nose knows.” If you enjoy the aroma, your body will enjoy the healing effects.

Neroli Part IV

In Europe, Neroli is regularly recommended for headaches, confusion, insomnia, stress, shock, and hysteria. I decided to use neroli for grieving clients. Grief is a shock to the psyche that is at first numbing and works into confusion, insomnia, and acute feelings of loss. Neroli helped my clients in every situation of worry and grief. The easiest way to administer the scent is to sniff it from a perfume vile or make a simple blend. Neroli blends well with lavender rose geranium, ylang ylang, jasmine, clary sage, and other citrus oils. A vial of only Neroli can be carried and sniffed throughout the day and night.

 

Compassion Blend

 

In a 1 dram, 3.7 milliliter, dark bottle combine

        7 drops Neroli

        3 drops Ylang Ylang

        2 drops Rose otto (steam distilled)

Fill the bottle with 190 proof alcohol or distilled water. Cap tightly and cure for one hour.

Neroli Part III

To reduce premenstrual pain and cramping, Neroli can be taken as a bath 7 days before the onset of menses. Add 10 drops of the essential oil in 2 tablespoons of honey or cream to a warm bath. Soak 15 to 20 minutes.

 

        Neroli and other citrus essential oils are best stored in the refrigerator. Bottle the essential oils in small, glass containers, tightly capped. Citrus oils can quickly become flat when exposed to oxidation and temperature changes.

 

        In perfumery and aromatherapy, Neroli is a heart note. It holds a blend together, giving the aroma definition and coherence. Heart notes are middle notes, building on the foundation of base notes, such as vanilla, vetiver, frankincense, myrrhand, and sandalwood. Floral and rose oils are middle notes that carry the message of the blend. Heart notes are very passionate, even erotic aromas, hat keep your attention and connect with the complexity of your personality. The heart center will open and unfold like a thousand petal flower. The sensation is deep and lingering. While the base notes hold the perfume or blend the heart notes take you on a journey, releasing endorphins from the depths of your soul.

 

        Aromatherapy and perfumery builds blends using base, heart and top notes. These are determined by the volatility of the essential oil or, how fast it lifts into the air. The base notes are grounding and “fix” the blend so it releases over a longer period of time. Heart notes initiate intimacy within and with others. They are warming, loving, and transforming. Top notes reach out to great us on an aromatic journey. They are the first scent we smell, establishing an initial aroma before dissipating. Top notes are uncomplicated and sociable. Enticing the recipient to begin an aroma journey. As the initial scent dissipates, an unfolding movement of scent begins. True healing occurs as the psyche releases unproductive thoughts and actions to discover self-actualization. Our goal is to participate fully in life’s journey.
