Our essences are made with reverence & dedication, prayerfully.
They are dedicated to the spirits & devas of the Natural world who direct & protect the work, & the Masters who oversee it.
I intended at one time to make up a combination of essences which could be used as a general aid to sleep - it seems that failing to achieve restful and recuperating sleep is one of the most common problems that people have.
I found it just wasn't practical. It's not that vibrational essences don't help, they certainly can and do work very well to help people sleep in a healthy way. The difficulty in producing a catch-all combination seemed rather to be that there are many different reasons why people sleep badly, and many different ways that they sleep badly, and a one combination solution just doesn't seem to be the best answer to this.
Some people can't get to sleep; some can fall asleep easily enough, only to wake soon after and toss and turn for hours; some sleep easily and long, but feel rotten when they wake; some want to be more aware of their dreams, while some have nightmares. There are just so many ways that you might find your nights' sleep unsatisfactory.
Here are some suggestions for essences for you to use in response to a variety of sleep patterns.
INSTANT CALMER
If you are having trouble sleeping for some reason which is connected with stress, anxiety, or grief then INSTANT CALMER may be the most useful for you. It is a combination of essences which is designed to relax, diminish anxiety and generally ground and balance both the body and the mind. I was first alerted to its usefulness in aiding sleep when a friend suffering bereavement reported that taking it at bedtime helped her sleep again. Useful for those who are experienceing nightmares or night terrors, and great for children at that age when they become afraid of the dark..... Also for children especially, though anyone else too......
CHRISTMAS ANGELS
Christmas Angels is an essence you might immediately think of to bring an atmosphere of calm and warmth to a house or room: use it as a spray which is laced with Tuberose essential oil- the scent of Angels. However, used in a child's room it will bring a sense of security and safety. Also, with children in mind especially...
HEART'S EASE
Spray this too, or rub on the skin, and it will bring a sense of calm and relief, and it is useful for helping to sleep when the cause is some kind of fear or anxiety.
NARD
Nard is an essence associated with deep sleep, and it has a profound and still nature. It is traditionally associated with the passage of the dead, and was used historically to aid serenity and calm for the dying. It is also useful to aid clear dreaming and in meditation.
CONCORDANCE
& SPINY CATFISH WEED
Have you ever been kept awake by that sense of being full of electrical energy which you just can't discharge? When your body twitches and you feel heat and discomfort and thrash about unable to relax, then either of these essences may be the one which will help you most.
If your sleep is disturbed because of a disruption to your diurnal rhythms, because of jetlag for example, try TALL PURPLE FLAG - a must in jet lag combinations.
If you are concerned with issues of protection, then ANGELSWORD and PENNYROYAL are very useful. If you are having trouble with nightmares, or night fears, then SPIDERWORT may be most appropriate: it is useful for panic and unreasonable fear - 'creeping menace'.
If you want to promote constructive dreaming, or you want to dream more, and be able to remember your dreams, there are a number of essences which may be useful:
BLUE NILE LOTUS
In any situation where you want to facilitate your connection with higher worlds, then think of this essence. It opens the crown but also grounds, and so has a protective quality to it. A lovely essence.
BLACK VELVET ORCHID
This essence 'pierces the veil', and enables you to see 'across the universe', like looking through a spiritual telescope.
WOLLEMI PINE
The Wollemi Pine is a unique tree found in New South Wales, a dinosaur among trees, rediscovered after being believed long extinct. It's site is closely protected, and it is being cultivated by cloning, soon to be available to the public. The properties of the essence are associated with 'long sight', and 'far sight' - to take this essence is like being in the crow's nest of a ship, seeing far away. It's name originates from the aboriginal, and means to 'look around'. If you seek prophetic dreams, try this.
ROSSLYN
This essence is high and rare - if you seek spiritual guidance, or sleep as prayer, try this.
MOONFLOWER
Moonflower is associated with the cycles of the moon, with night and dreaming. It has a very smooth and calming nature, and to take it is like being rocked to sleep by the gentle lift and swell of the ocean.
