May Tulips

While the garden is very happy for the rain, not so much the people, though. When it’s dark and gloomy out, the mood of a lot of people seems to be, “Get Me Outta The Funk!”

I suppose that’s why I made this new formula. It’s for those times when everything seems all-too-much, and whether it’s the rain or the news, nothing seems right with you. This formula will perk you right up! Get Me Outta The Funk does just what it says; it helps you find the sunny side of life again, and helps lift you out of a temporary gloomy mood.

Now, if you’re feeling depressed most of the time, it would be better for you to try one or both of these: Illumine or Depression. They are for a sadness and depressed mood of longer standing; both will work quite well whether or not you’re taking herbs or antidepressants. They’ve been tested and proven effective over a long period of time.

So. If it’s just a recent spot of “the funk” — or whether it’s something you’ve been struggling with for a long time, we’ve got you covered. Naturally!

Go get yourself Outta The Funk now — and enjoy the Spring flowers again

While Spring can be fun, it has a downside too. It can be depressing for those who are struggling with finances, relationships, and job security. Or just feeling bad about all the problems in the world. While I have many essences that can really help with some of these things (see some of my previous posts about depression, healing, and more) there is one combination formula I’d like you to know about that is just right for many of you during these challenging times. It’s called Illumine.

This one comes from the Flower Essence Society, and it’s a nice balanced little formula that helps you when you are feeling down, going through any kind of crisis,feeling discouraged, or having health problems. It’s also very useful for your animal companions who may live around depressive caretakers or in a joyless environment.

The light is returning with the Springtime sunshine and flowers; let some light into YOUR life with the Illumine formula — and start enjoying our beautiful world again. You’ll be able to more easily tackle whatever’s on your plate that way

Go here to order yours now.

But for some of you, the weather isn’t enough to cheer you up. Some of you are feeling anxious, feearful, and discouraged. So I wanted to take a moment today to let you know what we have going that can really make a difference.
First, we have the Anxiety Formula. When you’re anxious about what’s going to happen, this flower essence formula will calm you down and give you some hope that things are going to get better.

Next, we have the Essence of Perelandra. Wow, this one is really out of this world! This formula makes you feel like you’re on the top of the world, cradled in the sweet hands of Mother Nature. And hey, it’s Earth Month in April ~ so get in touch with you Earth Mother by letting Essence of Perelandra lead the way for you.

And finally, if money is the problem, we can’t put that into your pockets but we can give you the energetic tools to attract to yourself everything you need. The Prosperity Package is specially priced right now (both Quantum Prosperity and Manifestor, for a low combination price), so get this one for sure.

And finally, don’t forget the Safe Harbor Formula, from our new Italian Alpine Flower Essence Collection!

Get them all here.

This is very sad news! It’s sad because of the losses, but it’s also sad because there are so many alternatives to depression ~ many of them natural and very effective. How can you tell someone’s family that a suicide didn’t have to happen? That’s cruel and useless information after the fact.

So what needs to happen is for better information to reach a bigger number of people. And that’s why I’m writing this blog post today.

Help is easily available for depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts and feelings, grief and loss, post traumatic stress disorders, and so much more. We have very effective flower essence formulas right here, at affordable prices, for all these conditions. If you or someone you love is having trouble right now, PLEASE send them to my web site and get them some help.

Flower essences are effective, have NO side effects, come with a choice of preservatives (in case you can’t tolerate the alcohol, as it is usually sold in stores) — and the cost is very reasonable. Don’t suffer from depression; get help!

There are a lot of stressful things going on in the world right now, but you will cope with all of them better when your own system is thriving again. Here’s the link again. Please get some natural, safe help. Today.

Before I found out how bad it’s getting out there, I thought from articles I’d read a few years ago that the spring time is (oddly enough) one of the most dangerous times of the year. Worse than holidays, birthdays, or anniversaries put together. Why? Because in the spring time most people feel more hopeful and positive; the weather starts to get nicer, flowers start blooming, and the life force energy is stronger. But for people who are lonely, in pain, or depressed, that just makes it worse! What should be hopeful is instead a reminder of what’s just out of reach.

So if this spring finds you in a bad situation, remember there is help. And reach for it!

If the flowers can push through their obstacles, I believe we humans can figure out how to do that too!

First Crocus of Spring

By now, we also have a riot of colors with the other croci and a few iris reticulata.

But the first one’s always special. And this one is so cheerful and exuberant, I just had to share her with you!

Happy Equinox.

And be sure to look around our web sites for some flower essences that will just the thing for getting you out of a slump and into a sunnier place: flower essences for people and kids and flower essences for animals.

So it’s a good thing I’m in a line of work where I know what to do for these things; yes, that’s right, I made myself a flower essence formula. And man did it ever work! Of course I had to call it Get Me Outta The Funk! ~ because that’s just what it does.

Now, this is NOT for someone who is truly clinically depressed. There is a different formula for that — and you need to be under the care of a licensed medical practitioner (not to take the flower remedies, but to be sure that your depression is being clinically supervised.) Remember, we’re not allowed to “diagnose or treat any illness” — and that includes what can be termed emotional illness, too. So if you feel (or know) that you are clinically depressed, please seek help.

Then, if you and your medical professional agree that it would be appropriate for you, come see me about flower essences for depression. I participated in a longitudinal study sponsored by the Flower Essence Society on depression, with eight clients. All but one completed the study and had wonderful results; the eighth one discovered what was making her depressed and decided not to make the change at that time. We know that flower essences can be of enormous help for people with depression. And, you can take them at the same time as antidepressants (if you need to take pharmaceuticals for a while); flower essences do not interfere with any medications and are completely safe.

That said, if you’re just having a sudden dip in mood, and feeling kind of “funky” without really knowing why, then Get Me Outta The Funk! is a formula you really ought to try. I guarantee it will brighten up your day and get you over the rough patch, so that you can get on with things in your life.

Here’s a sneak peek at what’s in the works and almost ready for release.

• There are some new research flowers available that I am very enthusiastic about; I’ll be adding some to the older formulas.
• One of the older formulas that has almost had a complete makeover, there were so many wonderful new flowers to add to it, is the Healers Formula. This one isn’t just for healers ~ it’s for anyone who is sensitive to take on energies from other people, whether in close work or crowds. I’ll be writing more about the changes to this formula, and hope you’ll try the new version soon.
• For the first time ever, I’ll be adding gem essences to the mix for selected formulas. At first I was just experimenting with them, but soon grew to love them. In fact, this year I might even make a gem essence of my own!
• I’m working on a brand new line of shamanic reiki flower essences, in collaboration with Jim PathFinder Ewing, author of Reiki Shamanism and Annette Waya Ewing energy worker and teacher.. The work I did on this line is some of the best work I’ve ever done. You are going to love these, especially if you’re an energy worker or reiki practitioner.
• The Relationships group I started last year is filling out. I’ve got a whole bunch of new formulas to add, just in time for Valentine’s Day for all you romantics out there
• I have new formulas to help you Clear Clutter, Dance With Your Shadow, and much more.
• Green Hope Farms will be planting their greenhouse seeds in February, and then we’ll learn if the Bright Wings Asclepias seeds that I gave Molly are viable. If so, we will have a new Bright Wings Essence this year Can’t wait!
• This summer, we will have the Tibetan Gentian flower essence from Avena Farms in Maine. That essence is also something very special. I had hoped we could make the essence last year but we missed the bloom period by a couple of weeks, so we had to wait. It will be worth it though!
• There is another top secret project I’m working on that I can’t talk about yet; stay tuned for it. You’re going to love it, though — I can promise you that.

So many good things coming along! Oh but I almost forgot. . .

The best news of all is that we’ve LOWERED our prices! Yes, all the essences that were previously $25 are now $20. This makes it easier for you to get more of your favorite formulas

And as always, do let me know if there is a special formula YOU would like. I’m, always working on new ideas and welcome yours.

This Thanksgiving I looked through my repertory (which is growing every week, it seems ~ I now have more than 1200 individual flowers in stock) to see if there are flowers that really help people get more in touch with feelings of gratitude — especially if they are having a hard time finding things for which to actually BE grateful.

Very quickly one of my favorite little flowers popped right into mind. She’s the delicious Pink Water Lily!

Pink Water Lily

Pink Water Lily is a flower I turn to when a person really has forgotten how to simply BE with things. It shows up in more formulas than I originally thought it might, because of how powerful an ally it is when we want to find ways to reconnect to our gratitude ~ and remember that there really ARE so many blessings we have, if we would only stop focusing on what we don’t have and think we should.

Now if I were to make a Thanksgiving combination formula, I might also add a little Borage, which is bright blue and overcomes just about everything. It’s a fragile little flower but tough, and it reminds us how to weather all storms and be strong in who we are.

Together, the colors of the flowers blend to a purple vibration, which is very spiritual. Just the thing to help us remember where to turn when we need help ~ and Whom to thank for every good thing.

Oh and how could I forget Zinnia? She helps us remember how to be joyful! That is a very important ally for gratitude, after all; it’s hard to be grateful and sad at the same time. . . which is one reason why psychologists have their depressed clients keep a daily gratitude journal.

And finally, I’d add one of the new flowers from our Italian Alpine Collection: Fleur de Soleil. This sweet little flower carries the energy of the Sun, which shines equally on all Life ~ helping us remember that we are connected to something greater and warmer than what we may experience in the moment.

Fleur de Soleil

Fleur de Soleil makes the heart beat with joy and gladness, like the warmth of the sun making the face warm and happy. It helps you remember that even the Sun knows how to treat everything the same, none higher or lower than another; the patterns of Fleur de Soleil help you release long-held judgments about people, ideas, or things ~ so that you can relish the enormous diversity and variety of everything here on the planet that we share together.

Be here now, without judgment, in whole-hearted embrace and gusto of living underneath an exuberant and generous light of the Sun, relating openly and without fear with all other living beings. These are the gifts of Fleur de Soleil

When things around you (or inside you) feel all too gloomy to bear, purchase and take Fleur de Soleil. She will teach you how to find your natural strength and exuberance again..

Today I want to talk about some simple ways you can help yourself ~ your kids ~ and even your pets ~ live with a LOT less stress. You may not be able to change some of the bad things (hurricanes, bank failures, government messes, tainted food supplies, and oh the list is getting very long!) ~ but there are some simple, safe and natural ways you can keep things on a fairly even keel no matter what.

• Know that all things pass. They just do.
• Know that you can get through whatever comes your way. Humans are a resilient species.
• Make time to be still. Get quiet. Seek out beauty, in whatever form appeals most to you. Allow yourself to be refreshed by both the stillness and the beauty. (Hint: Nature is often great at offering both!)

Now, our company is here to support you in having a GREAT life, no matter what’s going on. Here are some of the ways we can help.

• Get our Stress Busters formula here. This one helps you cope with the extremes of fear, anxiety, gloom and doom — and yes, stress. Stress is very real, and how you cope with it will determine both your health and your ability to successfully navigate whatever comes at you. These days, it seems like a lot!
• If financial woes have you down, there are two great ways we can help you get back in the swing of things: get our Prosperity Package(Quantum Prosperity and Manifestors) contains all the flowers that help you remember where your power is, and how to use it to co-create whatever you want and need in your life, release the fears and doubts, and raise your self-esteem. A very useful package to have on hand during uncertain economic times!
• If you’re feeling really down, you may also want to consider getting some support for depression. Our Depression Formula available here has been used successfully even by people who are on anti-depressants and wanted something less expensive without so many side effects. If you are clinically depressed, you should be under the care of a medical doctor, in addition to whatever natural remedies you reach for; just be aware and consult with them when you need to!)
• If you have experienced loss recently ~ or just feel sensitive because so many others are feeling some ~ then Grief and Loss Formula available here helps you do the healing work of grieving. There are many stages of grief, and it’s very natural. But too many times we try to “keep it bottled inside”. That’s definitely NOT a healthy way to cope, even if you really do have a lot of responsibilities to manage. This formula helps you do the grieving AND stay on track in your life. (Good thing the flowers know how to help!)
• We have one formula we can’t live without, for both people and pets. Get your ETS (Emergency Trauma Solution) here ~ one for people, and one for animals. If your trauma circuits get triggered (and it seems like that’s happening a LOT lately. . . ) this will re-set your circuits to “normal”, so that you can deal with whatever it is without the added layer of shock and panic. Wonderful to have on hand for everything from a hangnail to an auto accident (or bank failure!)
• Oh and there’s one more thing. Here is a natural product that clears the air, dispels negativity, and uplifts your spirits ~ immediately. Purchase Blue Eagle Invocation. Healers know about this secret tool; but it’s not just for healers. It’s for everyone who wants to change the energy field around you and in your space. Wouldn’t that feel wonderful?

Wishing you and all your loved ones a safe passage through some of the roughest times, and that you stay strong and healthy. Let us know how we can help ~ that’s why we’re here
