Newsletter
December 2007

Dear Reader,
Welcome to my Christmas Newsletter, 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 flowers and their essences can uplift your spirit
and create beauty in your life. |

This
Month's Flower: SCOTCH PINE
Everyone loves the smell of pine trees with its branches reminding us of the winter holidays. Early Europeans used
pine wood for building houses, the tall straight trees for the masts of sailing ships, and its needles to stuff
their mattresses. The Native Americans ate the tops to prevent scurvy. The cones were boiled with other herbs and
honey to relieve a cough, and the needles were pounded and added to the bath to relieve arthritis. Its resins and
turpentine makes solvents for paints today.
Pine is warm and dry, and is an excellent expectorant for clearing phlegm from the lung, bronchial and sinus, as
well as being antiseptic. It aids digestion, stimulates the kidneys, helps arthritis and gout, and can be given
for physical and mental depletion, exhaustion and anxiety. Always mix it into carrier oil such as almond, sesame
or jojoba, never put an essential oil directly on your body.
As a flower essence remedy, it is given to those who blame themselves, feel responsible for the problems and mistakes
of others and live with constant guilt. Pine works to help us learn self-acceptance and how to set appropriate
boundaries. Your holiday pine tree, wreath or garland will not only brighten up your home, it highlights the lesson
of the Season---love and forgiveness as we take a moment to realize the sacredness and divinity first of ourselves,
and then of all others. |

Trust
Spray
In 2002, I traveled to Perth,
Australia to study with Vasu Barnao, Australian Living Essences owner and teacher. My mission was two fold: to
gain clarity on the next direction in my life as I was soon to celebrate my 62nd birthday, as well as a keen desire
to participate in the Earth Sauna Healing experience with Nunjan, the Aboriginal leader of the Bibulmun tribe,
which I will discuss at a later time.
In my work with Vasu, he led
me through a process of picking the flower essence cards to address my issues of Trust. Like many others, I had
situations in my past when I felt very unsafe, starting in early childhood. Vasu used the Bahui method of working
with the flower essences, which was an amazing process of seeing how this essence would heal me. He then gave me
a very large (16 oz) bottle of essences with instructions to take 4 drops in water every evening before bed. I
did this for two years and although I still sometimes find I am unsure of which direction I need to go--- I always
know that I can "Trust the Universe" to show me the way. This essence promotes inner knowing, the confidence
that all will turn out exactly as it is supposed to. Trust is rooted in love and acceptance---you have to first
of all accept yourself and who you truly are and be comfortable with that in order to open your heart and allow
others in. I have since shared this essence with many of my clients and friends, with wonderful results.
In this time of change and
uncertainty I feel it would help others to add, "Trust" to my flower essence product line. I have added
to the original Flower Essence formula from Vasu, and combined the Aromas of Sandalwood and Pine Essential Oils
for the spray. During my research for this month's flower I found that Pine works closely with the trust issue.
It is also available in a tincture (without smell).
A
Special Gift...From Me to You!
To share this wonderful essence
combination with you I am offering a Christmas special discount price of $12 (normally $15) plus shipping for the
1 oz spray or tincture, and $20 (normally $25) for the 2 oz spray. This offer will be good for the month of December
only. |
Vibrational Energy
What is your favorite flower?
Most people I talk with have a flower that stands out for them, they love the smell, the color or just the shape
of it. That special flower brings something wonderful to their mind and heart. For me it is Iris, in the wild,
bulbs or a bouquet, they always make me smile. I find that fresh flowers add joy to my home and workspace, so whether
it is a single rose, a bouquet, or a potted plant take time to bring the Joy of Flowers into your life. Fresh flowers,
Essential Oils or Flower Essences resonate with our Mind, Body and Spirit to restore us to harmony and balance.
Give the gift of flowers this
Holiday Season, buy flower bulbs-Daffodils, Paper Iris, Crocus or Hyacinth -- at a nursery, a simple glass dish
(2 inches deep), and small rocks from the hardware store. Place the rocks and 3 or 4 bulbs in the dish and wrap
them up. Include a reminder that the bulbs need to be kept watered, and when they bloom next month your friends
will still be celebrating their joy with you.
