Active Serenity

Working primarily on the mental body centres, this combination is excellent for distress and fatigue. Tension held in the brain stem and alta major chakra (back of the head) is dissolved. One can experience relief in the frontal lobes, aiding critical thinking and decision making. The end result is that the crown chakra opens to a new clarity and mental energy which is calm yet energised. an excellent essence to use in times of major life transitions.

Being Present

Combining Walking to the Earth's Rhythm and Being in Time, this essence helps one to be present within one's surroundings. Very good to use after a long journey, to assist all the parts of one's body and mind to 'arrive'. Also helpful in facing difficult issues in conversation or in therapeutic circumstances.

Clearing and Releasing

There are times when we are have to address deeply-held or especially challenging energies, and it is for these situations, either within a space or within an aura, that the Clearing & Releasing combination was created. It is also an extra-strength space-clearing spray, bringing a cleansing to office or home even when there are very dark energies confronting one. Brings a very reassuring, positive and strong light to the space. Use the drops form if there are energies within a person which need clearing out, for example if there has been any history of drug abuse.

Double Espresso

For those times when one needs an extra boost to one's energy. an essence equivalent to a cup of strong java, not an essence to take daily or frequently, but rather in critical instances when extra energy is urgently required.

Gentle Geisha

Energetically almost the opposite of Double Espresso (immediately above), this combination is excellent for unwinding at the end of the day. Helps to calm the overly-active mind, bringing one - very gently, graciously - back into one's body. Imagne sinking one's head down into a soft silk cushion, and knowing that there are times when it is entirely appropriate to set aside concern for the many responsibilities and cares that one has acquired. Allow the energies of these three beautiful orchids to soothe and nuture you, while you relax with a cup of tea.

Gentle Sleep

Gentle Sleep is an enhanced version of Gentle Geisha, with the addition of the essence of Rhododendron griffithianum, made by Don in Achamore Gardens. Rhod. griffithianum produced a deeply calming, relaxing and peaceful essence. Yes, this 4th component is not an orchid essence, but these days, especially in the UK, disturbed sleep has become a major issue for many, and so the importance of 'bending' our tradition in this one instance felt appropriate. Gentle Sleep helps one to achieve a deeper and more relaxed sleep.

Happy Relief

Brings a sense of happiness and gentle yet strong vitality. Has the surprising effect of making one feel quietly happy, and at the same time clearing mental/emotional tension and distress. The Baihui (the "place of a hundred gatherings") in Chinese medicine opens to give the head a sense of upward lift. The vaihui point is on the summit of the skull just two fingers width behind the crown chakra. In the Chinese tradition it governs the major acupuncture meridians. A good relief in challenging circumstances.

Healing the Hidden (Heyoka)

Heyoka is the Native American Contrary or in England the Shakespearean Fool. Real spiritual power is non-structure dand can work in reverse or backwards motion taking things out of the aura. More inner space brings the cusal body into place. Energetically works on the outer aura and then inwards to the inner core and then to the head. If you are in tears, Heyoka will bring relief; if you are hiding tears, Heyoka will remind you that you are carrying that pain and grief. Why hold on to it?.

Party Time!

A celebration of the sensual dance of life. To everything there is a time and purpose, and with this essence we can remember the value of fun, and the enjoyment of the senses. Dance again, before you forget the joy it brings!

Positive Flow

Positive Flow came into being in response to a question put by our wonderful Japanese distributor, when she asked which of the LTOE would be best for helping with Abundance. This essence combines the positive mental attitude fostered by Positive Outcome, with the high reach and power of our essence Pushing Back the Night. This combination provides one with a shift in mental outlook combined with a strengthening of the solar plexus, and an intentsification of the "ajana" centre between the eyebrows. This centre is at the heart of our mental body's ability to make things manifest. So with this essence one remembers how to 'make things happen', and one is energized to do so with immediate effect.

Sacral Regulator

Sacral Regulator is a combination of three essences: Core Release, Source of Life and an essence called Child's Play. This latter essence was made by Rose Titchiner in Norfolk, England as part of her Light Heart Essences range. She stopped producing and selling her essences in 2009 for health reasons, but the Child's Play essence had been so vital to Adrian's work for several years that he bought the mother tiuncture, and arranged for it to be sent to us at IFER, for us to bottle, so there could be a continued supply. Along with Vital Core, Unveiling Affection, Unconditional Snuggles and Sacral Release, Child's Play has been a key energetic tool for Adrian in correcting blockages and imbalances in the pelvic pulsation points and receptors. Not a flower essence, Child's Play is one of what Rose referred to as her "Intentional" essences. There is a lightness and innocence to this essence which Adrian has found to be exceptionally potent in his Therapeutic Energy Kinesiology.

This combination does what the sum of the parts would be in that it acts on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 6th and 7th chakras; it is purifying of the liver and also produces an increased sense of wellbeing and comfort within the pelvic region after a period of disturbance. On testing the essence it is clear that it has a marked effect on both levels of the dead pelvis syndrome, and does start the process of renewing and regeneration of the Gate of Life.

We should explain that the term "dead pelvis syndrome" is used by Adrian for a set of energetic conditions he frequently finds in his work, whereby various of the receptors and pulsation points in the pelvic area are blocked or suppressed. Please see his chart in the second half of this book for an illustration of the points, and the essences he uses to re-balance these points.

Outside of the kinesiological descriptions, one is likely to find that Sacral Regulator gives a sense of wellbeing, emanating from the pelvic area, and at the same time an expanded awareness around the head. Sexuality moves away from "performance" to intimacy and deep communion.

Shiva's Crown

Heightens and deepens the soul's understanding of its journey in this physical body. This essence goes into a part of the brain known as the limbic system and connects the causal body with the soul's journey and its divine contract, thus enhancing the process of spiritual healing. Assists in the therapeutic effects of other healing processes in the body as well. On a slightly technical note, Shiva's Crown connects the dreaming point on the top of the head with two points on the temporal axis the right and left, the left being the shadow side of the energy system.

Sleep of Peace

Sleep of Peace helps to promote deeper and longer-lasting sleep, but in a different manner from our combination Gentle Sleep. The latter chiefly is helpful in bringing about a more relaxed state of mind and heart, to help ease one into a restful sleep. Sleep of Peace on the other hand is a combination which was originally arrived at by one of our therapist customers, who found these 8 orchid essences when combined helped her sleep pattern considerably. More research on this combination was then done by Dr. Brito-Babapulle and IFER, both to see how it could be made to optimum potency for most people, as well as to understand more fully how it is helping sleep.

Sleep of Peace appears to help with our processing of memories, so that the mind is in the first instance able to process the data from the day more efficiently while one is asleep. After a few or several days of use it appears to bring about deeper processing and shifting of old memories which are 'gathering dust' and interfering with the efficient processing of the daily data. It is this jumble of old memories, traumas and fears which are often a significant part of the picture of disturbed sleep patterns. In general it is best to take Sleep of Peace for no more than 10 days at a time, as the new pattern of deeper sleep is able to carry on without the essence, though taking a drop at bedtime once every two weeks should be helpful.

We are not claiming that this essence offers 'protection' against external disturbances of sleep (such as Tetra masts), but by enabling the psyche to process its information more efficiently, it appears that we become less susceptible to these external factors.

Which of our two sleep essences is best for one will depend on the individual. The challenges to our sleep patterns these days (technological and psychological) are so prevalent, that it makes sense for us to offer these two options for people to choose from.

Soul Shield

There are times when we need to protect ourselves, for a variety of reasons. People that work with light are highly likely to attract challenges from diverse and sometimes dark energies from time to time. As well there is the global situation, which is increasingly shrowded in threatening shadows. Soul Shield provides powerful protection at multiple levels, to help us bring that light we carry within safely through with strength and certainty.

Spirit of Life

There is a sense with Spirit of Life that this combination was the reason its two component essences (Furnace of Life and Fire of Life) were brought into being. In part this essence helps to clear 'tribal' blocks and ancestral patterns in the first and second chakras, helping one to become more centered within oneself. Much of the rest of the action of this essence is best described in relation to the Ming Men point.

In Chinese Medicine there is a point situated between the Kidneys called Ming Men (translated as 'The Gate of Destiny'). This key point is the major 'gateway' for the infusion of all physiological dualities in a way that supports life and fuels the process of evolution.

If we fail to accept life as an opportunity to cultivate virtue, or attribute disempowering meanings to challenging or painful circumstances, then the fires of Ming Men will be severely diminished and life will be governed not by highest universal intentions, but by self generated belief systems.

This smothering of the Ming Men point leads to further polarised dualities within one's subtle energy system, which in turn will create further painful challenges within the body and psyche. Spirit of Life helps to clear the mist from the lens of perception of the observer even more fully than Furnace of Life, and so more readily enabling the truth of any given situation to reveal itself effortlessly.

Spirit of Life is therefore the combination of two remarkable essences, which embody the highest universal male and female energies; and it fulfills their potential as spiritual enablers. Spirit of Life produces a calm certainty in relation to the inner path of the soul; this trio of essences has great potential for enhancing the human soul's journey into light.

Temple of Light

Temple of Light was created to meet a specific problem in that there is an incongruity between The Bai-Hui point and the inner chamber of the heart, and the seventh chakra and the fourth chakra as well. Most authorities believe that there is not real healing when these four points are out of synchronisation or not connected. There are various ways that these points could be connected but nothing that acts quickly or permanently. To assist a rapid resolution of this problem, this essence was called into being.

Temple of Light (5)

Temple of Light (5) was created to meet the challenge of the energetic instability of prolonged use of Temple of Light in that there are certain clients who are unable to allow the connections of the soul to the incongruity between The Bai-Hui point and the inner chamber of the heart, and the seventh chakra and the fourth chakra as well.

Vital Lift

This combination is the same as Double Espresso, but with the aligning and calming addition of Core of Being. Vital Lift gives one a calm, centred 'in-the-body' boost of energy. Helpful when one is flagging, giving stamina for focused work.
