Floral Alchemy:

Unveiling the Legacy of Hildegard von Bingen and Dr. Edward Bach

Welcome to the world of using flower essences with animals, where the ancient tradition of harnessing the healing properties of flowers converges with contemporary understanding. For centuries, people relied on the therapeutic potential of flowers and plants, long before the prevalence of modern drugstores. Meadows, kitchen gardens, and forests served as the natural pharmacy, offering remedies that promoted physical well-being and emotional equilibrium.

Just as essential oils and pharmaceuticals derive botanical compounds from plants, some of the earliest flower-healing practices were documented by Medieval Abbess and herbalist Hildegard von Bingen. In her care, morning dew collected from roses was believed to encapsulate the healing "essence" of the flower without retaining biological compounds. Today, floral essence users and practitioners explore the diverse effects of different essences on both the body and the mind, creating a bridge between ancient wisdom and contemporary well-being.

Blossoming Holistic Wisdom:

Tracing the Roots of Calm Animal Solution to Bach Flower Essences

Explore the roots of Calm Animal Solution's Flower Essences journey, where the pioneering work of Hildegard von Bingen finds continuity in the 1930s through the endeavors of British physician Edward Bach, MD. Dr. Bach, curious about exploring the possibility of countering dis-ease by restoring the health of the emotional system, transitioned to natural remedies and identified 38 all-natural flower essences. These essences, discovered by Dr. Bach, aim to offer clarity, dispel negativity, and alleviate emotional hurdles.

Remarkably, Dr. Bach served as his own experimental subject during the development of his essence system. Testing numerous essences on himself, he meticulously recorded their effects. In 1974, the World Health Organization acknowledged Bach flower remedies in a report, highlighting them among various forms of complementary medicine used globally. This rich history lays the foundation for Calm Animal Solution's commitment to holistic well-being through the transformative power of flower essences.

Balancing Well-Being:

The Transformative Power of Harmony in Animal Healing

Similar to Hildegard von Bingen's philosophy, Dr. Bach recognized the significance of aligning the body and mind in animals for optimal health. Von Bingen's healing principles, rooted in her spiritual concept of "greenness" or Viriditas—a cosmic life force present in the natural world—inspire a holistic approach to animal well-being. This concept, reminiscent of the Eastern notion of "chi," serves as the cornerstone for various energy healing practices, including those beneficial to animals, such as acupuncture, Reiki, and Qi Gong. The essence of this life force also resonates in the therapeutic movement of Tai Chi, showcasing the profound benefits of harmony in healing for our animal companions.

Harmony in essences:

Elevating Well-Being for Animals through Positive Vibrations

Whether referred to as "good vibes," an "energetic field," or "spiritual vibrations," the palpable difference between positive and negative energy is universally felt. Extensive research underscores the adverse impact of negative emotional states, such as fear, grief, anxiety, anger, and bitterness, on both the body and mind. Conversely, positive emotional states have been proven to foster healing, aligning with centuries of common sense and decades of clinical research.

In the pursuit of uplifting the energetic state of both humans and animals, Custom Essence Blends provides a potent and natural shortcut through personalized flower essence blends. These essence blends act as a turbocharged catalyst, promoting well-being with just a few drops a day. Beyond traditional methods like meditation, exercise, music, and art, this harmonious approach taps into the transformative power of flower essences, offering a tailored and efficient way to elevate the vibrational frequency for the benefit of animals and their overall health.
