Hydrosol, Flower Essences and Homeopathy--The Real Story

2009-12-06T22:06:00.012-10:00

Hydrosol, Flower Essences and Homeopathy

Since 2001 I have been studying the art of distillation and over the years I have had the privilege to be a part of the growing hydrosol movement. It is a pleasure to see more and more people becoming aware of the great benefits these herbal waters can provide. It is important to realize however that hydrosols--in and of themselves--are not energetic by nature or considered homeopathy anymore than adding water to concentrated orange juice creates a orange homeopathic remedy. They just aren't folks. Homeopathy is a form of alternative medicine, first proposed by German physician Samuel Hahnemann in 1796, that treats patients with heavily diluted preparations which cause effects similar to the symptoms presented. This is referred to as “like treating like.” Homeopathic remedies are prepared by serial dilution with shaking by forceful striking, which homeopaths term "succession," after each dilution it increases the energetic effect of the treatment. Homeopaths call this process "potentization". Dilution often continues until none of the original substance remains. It is possible to create a homeopathic remedy from a hydrosol by succussing and diluting however this information is required to be displayed on the label. 1x 2x or 3x are the most common succession ratios.

Flower essences on the other hand are aqueous extracts of the fresh flowers of various plants chosen for their effects on specific mental or emotional symptoms. These are created by sun-soaking the wild flower blossoms and adding a preservative such as alcohol. Bach flower essences are the most widely recognized essences of this kind because Dr. Edward Bach first discovered this technique and documented the extraordinary results he received form using these essences in his practice.

It is from this modality that our energetic remedies have evolved. We have discovered a natural process of combining the energetic quality of flower essences and formulating them within the distillation process. This proprietary process has been developed over many years to create a new and exciting type of energetic remedy that influence the external energy fields of the body while stimulating the limbic system through aromatherapy. Energy Essences are energetically infused hydrosol unlike anything else on the market. Click on the link below to learn more about our formulations.

Dr. Edward Bach, the founding father of flower essences demonstrated that the subtle, invisible frequencies emitted by flowers can significantly influence ones health. These flower essences stimulate awareness of imbalances on the mental and emotional levels, and support balance. Early civilizations such as oriental, East Indian, American Indian, and Hawaiian cultures as well as more recent homeopathy have also taken an expanded view of how the body functions. Taken into consideration are the electro-chemical impulses in the brain and central nervous system and its inter-connection with human emotions. Energetic aromatherapy ® a new and cutting edge vibrational therapy is founded from Dr. Bach’s research and enhanced with the physical influence of aromatherapy. Developed within the last five years on the island of Kauai the process combines pure flower essences, aromatic plant matter and steam distillation. The result is a spring water based infusion of aromatic plant molecules and potent flower frequencies. Energtic aromatherapy mists are used by spraying onto the skin, air, and energy fields of the body with an atomizing mister. This delivery system is designed to potentize the flower frequencies, while releasing aromatic plant molecules. Ones external energy body is immersed in flower essence and are readily absorbed into the bloodstream through the skin and inhalation. With the addition of aromatic properties the function is to positively influence the limbic system of the brain, the center of emotions, memory and instinctual programming to promote balance and positive shift.

PLANETARY HERBALISM

PLANETARY HERBALISM
&
THE PATHWAY TO A BALANCED AND DYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM.

Every individual contains his or her own vibrational signature that manifest at birth and continues to develop and change through out ones lifetime. The influences of the planets and their connection to herbs and plants found on the earth have proven an affective tool to create health and balance both physically and energetically. Seemingly esoteric at present, this forgotten knowledge is again emerging into modern civilization. This is a blessing because when we are able to utilize this understanding and align our selves with those plants that resonant directly with us, we can restore severely depleted energy or balance over-active un-healthy energy patterns, thereby creating a dynamic equilibrium and a foundation for healing on many levels. What exactly does that mean?
Putative energy fields or bio-fields contained within every living thing on earth has within it vital energy or life force. Known under different names in different cultures, such as Qi in Chinese medicine, in Mana in Polynesian culture, Kampo in Japan and Dosha in Ayurvedic medicine.
Astrology provides a path to the herbs and plants that resonate directly with our own vital energy field which is as unique as our fingerprints.Once we know what plants resonate with us, we can then begin to incorporate them into our lives
There are several ways to use the vibrational energy of herbs to enhance health by shifting and balancing ones own energy field. The most popular method is currently Bach Flower Remedies. We have discovered that by using this same vibrational methodology combined with a unique process of distillation and astrological guidance, we can create vibrational remedies aligned to an individual. This process allows for 100% natural remedies that contain zero alcohol and insure the integrity of the plant energy as well as the biologic and aromatic properties that are captured and utilized therapeutically.

The Bubonic Plague, Ingenuity and Inspiration

2008-06-29T18:01:00.003-10:00

The inspiration behind Airborne Shield

In the 1600’s when the black plague ravaged Europe, more than decimating the population, a few found a way to profit from the misfortunes of others. 4 alchemists and perfumists in London concocted a blend of oils which proved effective against warding off the deadly plague. This ingenuity—regardless of its dark intentions--allowed the men to ransack the homes of the dead and dying. The recipe became public knowledge when the magistrate offered leniency to the thieves if they would share the recipe for the concoction. Airborne Shield borrows greatly from this recipe with our own added improvements. Check out our Travel Shield. 2 oz carry on for clearing the air in the stuffy, germ crawling airplane cabin.

Ginger-Allspice Protection--an Evolution

2008-05-25T22:12:00.001-10:00

I have come to believe that the creation of the greatest, most effective remedies begin from a spark of divine insight. We all have the ability to connect and when it happens it is followed by a deep sense of gratitude. Once a remedy is brought into being, it will often evolve beyond any expectations. Take for example
Ginger-Allspice Protection This remedy was originally formulated for health care professionals and people who deal with a heavy load of psychic bombardment. This is a true “Energy Essence” and uses the extracted flower essence of Beach Vitex combined with Iris. This combination works with subtle energies and emotions of the body as described by Dr Richard Bach, and helps filter psychic negativity while establishing positive boundaries.
It’s a known fact that not everyone is sensitive to these subtle energies however aroma is familiar to everyone. The physical constituents of Protection remedy are Wild Ginger and Allspice and have proven to be extremely calming and grounding--yet touch many people on a very deep and primal level of the limbic system. Interestingly, I was talking to a friend about the stress she experience's as a single parent of an autistic child. I told her about Protection Remedy and as I was explaining the qualities of Ginger-Allspice to her, I was amazed to hear that they have been using allspice for years to calm autistic kids and instill a peaceful environment through olfactory senses. Apparently the school boils the dried berries of allspice all day. WOW! I gave her a bottle of Ginger-Allspice Protection to try for herself and her child. The results have been very positive (that is--when she remembers to use the remedy).
I believe there are no coincidences and we are constantly on the edge of discovery. Its very exciting and rewarding when you can feel the path unfolding below your feet but more research is needed. I want to get this product out to people who can benefit from it and quantify the results. If you or someone you know is dealing with autism; you work in the health care profession; or are experiencing severe stress and just want to try it for yourself then I invite you to go to our website www.kauaiherbals/ginger.allspice and use this coupon during checkout for $5.00 off the listed price. code: gap5 Your input is very important however participation is strictly optional and we won’t bug you. It is our sincere goal to make a difference in peoples live. If you would like to reach me in person with questions or suggestions please email: shanon@energyessences.com
Thanks for your participation.
Ginger-Allspice Protection. Ingredients: Spring Water, Wild Ginger root and blossom, Allspice leaves and fresh berries, Wild Beach Vitex, Iris and Organic Grapefruit Seed Extract.

IS IT, OR IS IT NOT A "REPELLENT"

2008-05-19T09:50:00.000-10:00

Does it effectivly repel mosquitoes, ticks and fleas--YEP! Is it registered with the FDA or the EPA--NOPE!

How can it be that one little word “Repellent” can send shivers of fear and frustration down the spines of natural product producers such as Kauai Herbals? For the past 2 years we have been developing an all natural highly effective “repellent” for mosquitoes, fleas and ticks.
Driven by the desire to truly help people by giving them an alternative to DEET products, we have received nothing but frustration and grief when trying to register this product with the FDA and EPA. It is totally insane! For one thing it’s upwards of $150,000 and the bureaucratic red tape is so confusing and convoluted it most certainly is devised to scare us little guys away. How can these government agencies who claim to be in the business of protecting American consumers make it so difficult for small business to compete regardless of a products effectiveness? It’s no big surprise that these government agencies cater to big business but as natural product producers and a small business, we refuse to be bullied. The fact is—our not really a “repellent” Herbal Defense, is not only highly effective against mosquitoes, fleas and ticks, it also utilizes Lemon Eucalyptus which is regarded by the CDC (another government agency!) as the most effective bio-pesticide for repelling mosquitoes. Honestly we have given up trying to register this product and instead have become creative with the labeling. No where on the label do we refer to Herbal Defense as a “Repellent” (even though it certainly is!) It is referred to as an “outdoor spray”. A little confusing for the consumer? ---YES! But we refuse to pull this effective alternative to DEET of the shelves. It is a “repellent” regardless of what the label says and it works, therefore the public deserves to have a choice.
