What are flower essences and gem elixirs?
Flower essences are diluted herbal infusions or decoctions, made from the flowering part of the plant, which have an affinity for addressing emotional and mental issues. They are similar to homeopathic remedies because they are diluted and potentized to increase their effectiveness. Dr. Edward Bach, an English homeopath, developed his own set of remedies in 1930 and they have been used ever since. Gem elixirs are created using the same methods except gemstones are immersed in the water for a certain period of time to infuse the water with the energy and healing effects of the gems.
