When you’re short on sleep or dealing with chronic sleep issues, what do you turn to?
Pick any “tired mama” meme and it would suggest a large mug of coffee is the popular choice to get through the day.
But is putting stimulating caffeine really the best choice to bring your body back into balance at night?
Whether you’re a parent or not, you know how crucial a good night’s sleep is to your AND your child’s well being. And not just one good night of sleep here and there, but regular deep, restorative sleep every night.
Your best healing and detoxing occurs when you sleep—so when your slumber is cut short, you aren’t getting those natural health benefits!
The inability to sleep well is a symptom of something else going on.
In my clinic, I’ve found that one of the main causes of sleep issues in adults and children is…
…unresolved emotions.
When you sleep, your body processes emotions. It’s also when your brain processes memory.
Remember, all parts of you are interconnected. And if your body-mind isn’t ready to process something difficult or there’s something it’s avoiding or not wanting to deal with, your body will wake you up or prevent you from falling asleep so that you’re not processing those emotions while you sleep.
This is where flower essences can do their best work!
What are flower essences?
At the heart of flower essences is the belief that plants possess unique energetic signatures that can positively influence human emotions and mental states.
Unlike essential oils or herbal extracts, flower essences capture the subtle vibrational imprint of a flower through a process of infusion. This gentle extraction method preserves the flower’s energy without involving its physical properties—there is NO scent or fragrance—making it safe and suitable for everyone, including children and pets.
Everything in life has an energetic frequency. Your brain and your heart, for example, communicate to your body via electrical energies.
But different emotions have different energetic frequencies, too.
If you’ve been in a room with an extremely angry person who is flying off the handle, you’ve probably felt the frequency of their anger. On the flip side, when you experience unconditional love from God or someone you love, your body is flooded with the highest vibrational frequency.
The concept behind flower essences is based in the principles of energy medicine—where imbalances in our emotional well-being manifest as disturbances in our energy fields, causing disease, pain or dysfunction.
Flower essences work by harmonizing and rebalancing a person’s energies, addressing the root causes of emotional challenges rather than merely alleviating symptoms.
Real-life success stories
Here are 3 real-life examples from clients in my clinic—plus one from my own life—where flower essences resolved sleep issues:
How End2Panic flower essence helped a toddler sleep through the night
A mom brought her 2-year-old son to me for help because he wasn’t sleeping through the night—at all. His mom was so frustrated because both of them were so sleep deprived. She’d tried so many things and nothing really seemed to help him.
During his session in my clinic, we determined through muscle testing that the End2Panic combination flower essence was the best for his situation since he was dealing parents’ difficult relationship and picking up on their emotions.
He started taking the flower essence in water right away and that first night after bringing her son to see me, he slept through the night! And he continued to sleep well.
The flower essence did a deep, but gentle work to help him process the emotions that were not only hard to face on his own, but impossible to verbally work through since he was so young.
Helping a child overcome bedwetting
A different client brought her older child to see me because they were having chronic bedwetting problems. Through muscle testing, the kidneys and bladder came up. Kidneys/bladder are the seat of fear in the body, which is why when a person is anxious they often pee frequently.
After being on the right flower essence blend for several weeks, the child eventually had consistent dry nights! The flower essence didn’t “cure” the bedwetting. And the fear didn’t resolve overnight. But the blend did help her child’s body/mind process some emotions of fear and anxiety that were behind the bedwetting.
Dealing with past traumas
One woman came to me for some other health issues. She was a regular client and at one point, her sleep suddenly started to become irregular. She had been dealing with past childhood trauma and the aftermath of a divorce, and was becoming anxious. Finding the correct flower essence blend to support her body in dealing with the traumas her mind was remembering helped her sleep gradually return.
How my father’s death affected my sleep
After my father passed away last year, my sleep fell apart. I was waking up every 90 minutes and wasn’t even able to get through a single sleep cycle. I especially couldn’t sleep between the 3 and 7 a.m. time frame, which is the time in our bodies associated with lungs and the large intestine, respectively. Grief is the emotion associated with lungs.
I tested myself and it came up that my lack of sleep was emotional, so I put myself on a flower essence. It wasn’t an instant fix, and I didn’t expect that, since processing the loss of a parent doesn’t happen overnight. But once I started taking the flower essence, it did gently help me process the loss of my dad. By giving myself space to grieve, my sleep returned.
Plus it was a huge relief to simply recognize that the reason I wasn’t sleeping wasn’t a physical issue. It was my mind and my body dealing with a difficult emotional experience that I’d never been through before and I needed some extra support.
Do you need your own custom flower essence blend?
Whether your issue is lack of sleep or something entirely different, having your own custom blended flower essence matched to you—which is determined through muscle testing—can help support your body in facing or dealing with something that it can’t do on its own.
When you book a healing session with me, we can test whether a flower essence is needed at this time, and if so, which one is the correct match for you!
