Dear
Reader,
This is the first of my new monthly
newsletters to you. I invite you to experience the healing
power of flowers. Each month, I will share with you my findings,
my travels, and the many ways in which flower essences can uplift
your spirit and create beauty in your life. |

This
Month's Flower: Holly
We think of holly as a very prickly bush with red berries
used in holiday garlands. Its roots go deep both in
the soil and in history. In Ancient Rome, it was exchanged
as a symbol of health and happiness during the December Festival
of Saturnalia. In medieval times, Christians revered holly
as the symbol of love and goodwill. An evergreen, it symbolized
life during the long barren winters and was carried by men
as a good luck talisman. Holly water was sprinkled on newborn
babies for protection.
Holly is a revitalizing bloom, often used as an herbal remedy
or ingested in teas. It has been used for arthritis, gout,
persistent coughs, bronchitis, and urinary infections. South
Americans enjoy Yerba Mate, a tea produced from a native
species of holly, in gatherings to reaffirm friendships.
As a flower essence, holly opens the heart and united us
with Divine Love. A holly tincture or spray is especially
beneficial to those that are overcome with jealousy, resentment
and a lack of love in their lives. Incorporate sprigs of
fresh holly into your family gatherings this holiday season,
and watch it open everyone to Divine Love, which is so readily
available.

 Living
in Gratitude
As we approach the holiday season, many emotions surface...the
end of another year, a new list of resolutions, holiday shopping,
family gatherings. Even the change of seasons and the onset
of colder weather affects our moods.
It is because of these factors that we must remember to live
in gratitude, being thankful for all we have and all the
blessings that surround us. This is a time to reach out to
others acknowledge their friendship, and their support. I
would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone of
you for being part of my circle of friends. I am grateful
for every gift of friendship and communication I receive
from you, you truly make a difference in my world. I
am sure this holiday season will bring more joy as our perspective
shifts to a positive direction; then giving thanks and living
in gratitude is effortless.
Flower essences harness the pure beauty and energy that can
open new paths and create new ways of being. My flower
essence blends are formulated to instill balance and calm. My
recommendations for this season are:
- Prosperity: a blend flower essences and essential oils
of geranium, ylang ylang and nutmeg to open and connect
us to endless opportunities to receive and give abundance.
- Harmony & Balance: lavender, rosewood and pine essential
oils and flower essences will balance energies and harmonize
the body and the mind. I recommend bringing Harmony & Balance
to your holiday gatherings.
- Renewal: Depleted energy is transformed into centered
purpose and direction. An invigorating essential oil
blend of orange, grapefruit, yarrow, lime and bergamot,
with flower essences to uplift and renew our spirit.

 Vibrational
Energy
Have you ever gazed
at the vibrancy and beauty of a natural flower? Well if you
are like me, flowers speak to my senses and to my soul, especially
when I sit quietly with them.
Flowers are one of
God's most beautiful and vital creations. Each flower emits
a unique vibrational signature. The same is true of each
of us! We also have a unique vibration, and when we
come in contact with flowers, we resonate with their graceful
beauty, soothing fragrance and healing energy.
When we are clear
in our goals and intentions for what we want, we become aware
of different views concerning issues that may block us from
success and the choices we are required to make to manifest
our dreams.
