The Indian flower therapy is different to the Bach flower therapy which is more widely known. The Indian method has the dew or flower collected in the apparatus, and a preservative like brandy or glycerin added. The whole framework is built upon the notion that water has the memory and hence it can retain the energy received from the flower for a long time. This therapy has nothing to do with the aroma therapy or essential oils. Flower medicine can be used orally or used for external applications. If we know the meaning of the sanskrit word used to describe the particular flower, we will know where it has to be used.

Cacti : Helps a person to strive harder; notice how it lives in hard conditions.

Morning creeper : It is for those who want to feel fresh in the mornings.
Many diseases have their roots in our mind and emotions. In fact some diseases may as well have its roots in our childhood. As the growth of the human body occurs, the transformation occurs at emotional level and the physical change is long lasting. Flower therapy does not over react , it balances any disorder in body. The ancient philosophies need be mentioned as and again : We cannot enjoy total well being unless the mind , body and spirit are balanced. The healing power of flower lies in their ‘energy fields’, which give them their unique healing characteristics. The evidence came to light when in 1940s, a Harold Saxton Burr accidently discovered them around plants and animals. He called these fields bio-electrical or electro-dynamic L-fields. The essences can also be used in agriculture for better growth to warding off pests.
