Flower Essences for Children

Parents, siblings, grandparents, neighbours, friends, teachers, TV, radio, movies – young children absorb information like sponges from all these sources whilst still mostly pre-verbal. Nature wired us this way so that we could figure out how to negotiate our environment. However, nature did this when we were living in small tribes close to nature (a very different scenario to modern living in western culture).

It is estimated that 90% of our sub conscious patterning is formed by the time we are 3 years old. Given that much of our conscious behaviour is driven by our subconscious patterning, this gives serious pause for thought.So, if your view of the world was mostly formed by the time you were three – whose programs are running in the background? How much are these programs pulling your strings? Are these values aligned with your own values, dreams and goals? When something stressful or traumatic happens, do you respond or react? How old are you at these times? Interesting questions to contemplate…

As a parent, are you concerned about the effect of this myriad of influences on your own children? If you see your child taking on values not congruent with your own, or if they experience a trauma, would you like to have a natural, accessible means of helping them?

One way is with flower essences – gentle, self adjusting remedies that help bring into balance intense or negative thought patterns and emotions. One of the most beautiful things about flower essences is that they are a totally safe – you simply cannot do any harm with a flower essence. Anyone can choose and use a flower essence, and it is impossible to overdose on them. If you take the wrong one, all that happens is that it doesn’t work.

Australian Bush Flower Essences have 69 flower essences to assist with a wide range of emotional, attitudinal and spiritual patterns. One is a remedy called Paw Paw, which is specific for resolving conflict between conscious thoughts and sub conscious programming.

Is your teenager bowing to peer pressure? Sturt Desert Rose can assist them to stay true to their own personal integrity and values. Is lack of confidence an issue? Try some Five Corners. Perhaps bullying is a problem – Rough Bluebell helps perpetrators gain a sense of empathy, while Southern Cross allows those being victimised to more easily stand up for themselves.

Learning and literacy problems, as well as ADD and ADHD often benefit from Bush Fuchsia.

Tantrums? Mountain Devil works wonders.

Feeling like you don’t fit in? Tall Yellow Top.

Rebirthing is form of guided meditation – a healing technique used to discover whether specific beliefs were taken on board during the birthing process or while still in the womb. For example practitioners experienced in rebirthing have documented that if a baby got stuck during the birth, they may grow into a person with a pattern of getting stuck later in life. If they were ‘rescued’ via medical intervention during the labour, they often wait to be rescued if they ‘get stuck’ in life. Whereas if they went on to be born naturally, they can often push through the obstacle themselves. It really is fascinating research. Our birth story is powerful, and knowing it can bring deep insights about our life and emotional patterns.

Imagine a world where your past traumas have been healed and your negative beliefs and limiting thought patterns dissolved, so that you are free to be the best person you can be. Imagine entering adulthood knowing who you are and what you want to do with your life, with good self esteem and the confidence to go out into the world and just go for it. Imagine a world full of people who are healthy in mind, body, heart and spirit.

I truly believe that Australian Bush Flower Essences can help bring this about, especially when I see the profound differences they have made in countless adult’s lives, including my own, and when I meet teenagers and young adults who have been raised on the Essences. I see it in my own family. I see it in the many children in my community whom I have given the Essences over the past ten years, sometimes from birth.

I am fortunate to also see this often as I teach my workshops around Australia and North America. Many people come back for new workshops over the years, or repeat a course just to be amongst like minded people for the weekend. It is wonderful to hear them describe how the Essences have enabled them to let go of and heal patterns that were not serving them. It is beautiful and heart warming to watch them blossomed as a result. Their journeys are truly inspiring.

ABFE College Course Part 1

The Australian Bush Flower Essences College Course is 16 hours in length and is available in various formats to make it more accessible. These include weekend and midweek dates. You do not need to have ever used an essence before or to have been to any other Australian Bush Flower Essence course to attend this one.

It is a stand alone course and you do not need to do Part 2.

This beautiful course is for everyone with an interest in natural healing either for themselves, their family, or professionally.

The College course was developed by, and is fully accredited by, Australian Bush Flower Essences and has been taught in naturopathic colleges for over 20 years. However because it contains such valuable knowledge (that anyone can use), it is now being made available to members of the community and practitioners in more informal venues outside major cities.

If you have already attended the weekend and one day workshops, you will find the information in this course new, and from a different perspective.

However, you don’t need to know anything about flower essences or natural healing to do this course, nor even have an intention of using the essences on anyone other than yourself, your family, pets and friends. We start with the basics and by the end you will be a confident and competent flower essence practitioner.

If you are a professionally qualified practitioner, you will find this information exceptionally useful in your clinical practice, enhancing your existing knowledge base and modality.

You will learn:

  • The history of the development of Flower Essences
  • How Flower Essences work
  • The Doctrine of Signatures
  • The Healing Power of Nature
  • Human subtle energy anatomy (the chakras and the aura).
  • How thoughts and emotions affect wellbeing
  • The cutting edge science validating the ancient healing systems of Ayevedic Medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine.
  • Major emotional issues and corresponding Essences for each theme
  • All 69 Essences in the Australian Bush Flower range
  • Our ready made combinations
  • How to actually prepare an individual Flower Essence, which you then take home, use, and observe its effects
  • Different methods of Bush Essence application

Further, as a journey through the chakras, this course has the potential to be a gentle yet profound healing experience on a personal level. Many people describe it as life changing.

At the conclusion of the course, you will receive a Certificate from Australian Bush Flower Essences, equal to that obtained by naturopathic students who have completed this course in formal Naturopathic Colleges. An additional qualification of “Advanced Practitioner Certificate” is available upon submission of three cases histories of suitable quality after course completion.

Energy medicine is at the forefront of creating a whole new world of options and outcomes, not just for practitioners, but for everyone. The Australian Bush Flower Essence College Course explores and teaches this new paradigm of health and wellbeing based on subtle energy systems, creating new opportunities for “healing in the whole person”.
