Ways to work with flower and vibrational essences

Orally

Flower essences are typically taken 1–5 times a day, either directly on the tongue or added to a glass of water to sip slowly. They can also be incorporated into food.

On the skin

Flower essences carry a subtle vibrational energy, a small pressure wave, which can be absorbed through the skin. Apply drops to areas of pain, tension, or specific meridian points to help open energy channels in the body. Alternatively, you can add the drops to a mister and spray around your body for a broader effect.

In water

You can also place drops of flower essence into a bath or foot bath. While the essence is diluted, many believe this is when the energetic exchange is most powerful.

For a more subtle effect, try placing the drops in a bowl of water and leaving it in a room where others will be. The energy will subtly influence anyone who passes through or uses the space. Flower essences can also be used in group settings or classrooms to create a harmonious atmosphere.

Ceremonial Lustral Bowl

(Adapted from teachings by Rosita Arvigo, Belize )

To create a Lustral Bowl, you need just five simple ingredients.

If you’re picking a fresh flower or leaves, approach slowly, standing quietly before the plant. Set an intention to connect with the Source:

“May all that is released be received

May all receive complete healing and transformation” 

Place the flower essence drops into the water, knowing that each one represents light, love, and faith. If you’re using fresh plants or flowers, gently massage them into the water. Using water from a natural spring or leaving it out under the moonlight can amplify the energy of the prayer.

“I have great faith that all who are graced by this offering will be transformed”

Allow the Lustral Bowl to sit for a couple of days. You’ll intuitively know when it’s complete. Once ready, pour the water and its contents into the soil or compost to support regeneration and growth.

Thoughts

As you continue to work with flower essences, they become powerful allies, helping to open areas of your spirit that need healing. Studies suggest that, much like dogs sensing when their owners are coming home, plants can also detect the presence of those who care for them, even from a distance.

This reciprocal relationship is one way that flower essences contribute to healing the world.
