5.0 out of 5 stars A Gold-Mine!, 28 Feb 2008
By 
This review is from: Flower Essences: Reordering Our Understanding and Approach to Illness and Health (Paperback)
PLEASE get this book if you are using Essences in any way or want to learn about them - it's a Gold-Mine!
THE BEST BOOK ON THE SUBJECT ON THE MARKET! -read on!

It is a gold mine because you learn how to use essences effectively and effectively - in detail!

The author herself is an amazingly dedicated nature researcher and offers highly valuable information in an really inexpensive book.

The first part is about Perelandra Essences - which are of fantastic quality, but these you may, or may not, use.

For me, the MOST IMPORTANT part was in the second half of the book: I learned how to use essences effectively and effectively! Actually through this book I realized what a REAL treasure Flower Essences are - once we know how to use them well!

I have used Flower Essences for about 15 years prior to reading it, but once I read this book my working with essences accelerated exponentionaly! Through this book I now REALLY know how to use them well - for myself and helping others...

It also explains how to prepare essences yourself - if you are so inclined ( I leave that to others for the time being anyway).

If you are using Essences PLEASE get this book!!!

PS: There is also a Video about this subject by this author/Perelandra - completely different and complementing information (not a repeat of the book at all). Well worth getting too!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A detailed and well-written book - a must for those working with flower essences, 25 Mar 2011

(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Flower Essences: Reordering Our Understanding and Approach to Illness and Health (Paperback)
I would deem Machaelle Small Wright to be the most knowledgeable person on the planet as regards flower essences. First and foremost, she has direct access to the horse's mouth, so to speak, that is, the Nature Spirits and Devas, or perhaps Deva in the singular, who tell her all she needs to know about making the flower essences and about the qualities and applications of the specific essences.

I don't myself work in this field at all, though on reading the book I have become convinced of the absolute value of flower essence treatments.

There are two extensive passages by the Overlighting Deva of Flower Essences, one at the beginning and one at the end of the book. The first explains: "We of Nature consciously accepted a partnership with humans that related to the development of their physical form and ... the upkeep and maintenance of that form ...". Also, "we took on the responsibility to balance the human form during times of dysfunction." "There is contained within Nature a pattern of healing that responds and relates to every specific dysfunction within mankind." "... it is the plant kingdom that we primarily utilize for infusing into the blueprint human healing patterns." This explains how flower essences are so valuable for our systems.

Machaelle begins by introducing us to Perelandra, her home and nature research centre, explains about her "co-creative energy gardening" and provides us with definitions of "devas" and "nature spirits".

In the first chapter she explains how the Perelandra Flower Essences are made. Then we are given definitions of each of the Perelandra garden Essences and the Perelandra Rose Essences. These definitions identify "the specific healing pattern that has been released from the flower into the water". She provides us also with short definitions for easy access. For example, "Cauliflower: Stabilizes and balances the child during the birth process", "Dill: Assists individual in reclaiming power balance one has released to others. Victimization." and "Summer squash: Restores courage to the person who experiences fear and resistance when faced with daily routine, Shyness. Phobia."

The book explains how we can get our own definitions from the Deva of flower essences for those flowers and vegetables not listed. This is quite an exciting process in my opinion. I haven't tried it myself, of course, since I have at present no desire, or rather time, to work with producing essences. Perhaps in another life.

There is a useful and detailed chapter on "Kinesiology: the Tool for testing". This includes a passage by Universal Light. And there's a chapter on when to use flower essences.

Machaelle describes the process involved in the basic flower essence test and advises about surrogate testing, testing for others.

There is a long chapter on additional flower essence procedures, including peeling and telegraph testing. Sometimes whatever is making you feel unwell or unbalanced is in layers and the peeling process removes the layers one by one until you become clear. Telegraph testing is a tool to move through symptoms at lightning speed, minutes instead of hours or days. by the use of visualization or focus. (It's a bit complicated to explain so you will need to read the book, if you're interested in this,)

There are sections about testing your family or group, on another process called the two-week essence process, on finding out causes of past problems, essences and the death process and essences and animals.

Machaelle is intelligent and articulate, and the book is extremely well-written, everything being explained in absolute detail. I don't think you could find a more qualified exponent on flower essences than this expert, her explanations being backed up by theoretical statements by such high beings as the Deva of Flower Essences and Universal Light.

I thoroughly recommend this book to all those interested in flower essences.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quintessential Book on Flower Essences, 15 Jun 2003
By Dee Carroll - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Flower Essences: Reordering Our Understanding and Approach to Illness and Health (Paperback)
If you read just one book on Flower Essences, this is the one to read. Ms. Wright takes using Flower Essences to a whole new level. I will admit I was a little skeptical at first by what is being put forth in this book and I was unsure as to where to start. I have now gotten my feet wet and I am trying some of the various techniques covered. I was taught that flower essences just treated emotional problems. In this book, Ms. Wright takes it farther. After all, if you take a wholistic approach to health, then you know that illness starts on the emotional, mental & spiritual levels and then filters down. Therefore, you can realistically say that treating your emotional, etc problems would greatly benefit your overall health. I also realized that when I have a cathartic reaction to a course of essences, that I can just retest myself when that happens to address the issue that has come up. But read the book for yourself and expand your use of flower essences.

5.0 out of 5 stars the best and only flower essence book you will ever need, 13 Oct 2010
By ac - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Flower Essences: Reordering Our Understanding and Approach to Illness and Health (Paperback)
I own one book on flower essences and this is it. I make and sell my own essences. I use essences on a daily basis, treating my self and friends and even animals and the land. I have over 100 essences from which I make different blends ranging from chakra blends to the elements to PMS, headaches, and spiritual development. I even make blends for my acupuncture friends and acupuncture protocols. All of this was made possible with the help of this book. (by the way, Perelandra makes the best essences on the market today in my opinion). This book is amazing, solid and it rings true with no 'woowoo'. Michelle Small Wrieght is very scientific in all her research and writing. This book is for the open-minded skeptic. It is for the beginner and seasoned professionals alike. I love everything Perelandra has to offer. thanks Michelle!
