Flower Essences: Helping You to Make Friends With Fear

If you’re finding things are quite full on at the moment, take heart, you are definitely not alone. The recent energetics and events have been fast moving and filled with rich opportunities to open up your inner journey to deeper pathways of exploration. This process is certainly not without its challenges though and can temporarily leave you feeling a little confused, distracted and off centre, until you find a new level of balance again.

So we thought that we would highlight one of the strongest themes that we have seen coming up for people over the last little while and offer some essence suggestions that are specific to help you work with that somewhat challenging thread of energy.

Fears of all Shapes and Sizes

Fear in all of its many guises has been an uncomfortable travelling companion for many people recently as they followed the pathways of their inner journey of transformation. Fear is an energy that underpins so many of our old patterns and one that we often encounter as we journey deeply within ourselves.

It is a legacy of many lifetimes in which we have explored what it is like to forget both our indivisible connection to Source and who we are as souls. It has been a grand game of polarity in which we have experienced separation to its fullest and had many rich but often painful experiences. As we move into a more expanded heart based consciousness these old stories and experiences have to be recognised and re-evaluated and new choices made so that we can move on.

Fear is the vibration that has accompanied us through many of these life experiences because it is indelibly woven into the fabric of our existence. It is so familiar to us that it can often be difficult to spot initially as being the reason why we are feeling so out of balance and harmony with ourselves.

Changing the Legacy of Fear in our Past

It is worth remembering that in many previous lifetimes fear has actually kept us safe because it has alerted us to the presence of very real dangers in our environment. We have also left many lifetimes in fear because of the events that we have experienced. For instance, conflict, persecution, natural disasters etc.

While all of this was a necessary and chosen experience for that lifetime, we have to remember that it is mostly no longer relevant, because today we can make new choices as we step out of the old matrix. However, while we might know this consciously the less conscious parts of ourselves still connect back into the old programming and the stories about certain experiences being unsafe. For example, speaking your truth or practicing healing have both been something once punishable by death and many of us still carry buried threads of fear around these and many other similar issues that today have no relevance but might well try to keep us ‘safe’ when we decide to explore those activities in this life.

All of these old redundant stories & beliefs, along with the accompanying emotions like fear, are being pushed into our awareness for transformation as the frequencies rise on our planet and our souls gently remind us that we came here to let go of them so that we can help anchor something new.

Resistance and the Rabbit Hole

The vibration of fear can become a huge rabbit hole that we can easily find ourselves falling into if we are not very mindful. It is a familiar frequency which easily attaches itself to anything that you allow it to. Given the opportunity it will very quickly draw you in, lower your vibrational frequency, close your heart and cut you off from your guidance in ways that feel very uncomfortable. From inside the rabbit hole it is harder to see the bigger picture of life and to remember that you are just needing to bring some fragmented aspects of yourself back into your heart and allow them to transform in your own vibrant light and love.

If you should happen to find yourself wandering the winding pathways of the rabbit hole of fear, recognise that you have probably hit a patch of resistance in your inner world. Resistance happens when the fragmented parts of ourselves that still believe that the original reason for the fear is real get activated, making us uncomfortable so that we instinctively push back against the flow of transformational energy that is trying to help us clear it away.

Keep in mind that the very fact that you are feeling resistance means that you are very close to being able to break through the wall of fear into the sunshine again. I find that it helps in this situation to remind myself often, that fear has been very accurately described as being False Evidence Appearing Real. Nothing that it presents to you is actually true, just a distortion of reality that you will be able to see beyond as soon as you stick your head out of the rabbit hole again.

Moving Beyond the Resistance of Fear

The quickest way through a patch of resistance is to remember to take some nice deep breaths, gather all of yourself back into your body, ground yourself fully into the Earth and feel deeply into what is going on for you, physically, emotionally & mentally.

Allow the story to arise without getting attached to it. It may feel intense and very real, but do your best to stay with it and let it reveal itself to you. Own it all as part of you, no matter how much you might be tempted to blame something outside of yourself for the situation. We are each responsible for our own thoughts, beliefs, emotions and actions and for the creations that these bring forth.

As creators we also have the power to change anything that we are willing to accept as our own. Just invite any traumatised, fearful parts of you that need help, to step into the love in your heart space and give them a safe space to express themselves. The resistance will drop away more easily then and you will be able to move on with greater ease.

Flower Essences to Help with Fears

Flower Gem & Crystal essences are catalysts for change and are a wonderful resource to help us dissolve and transform old fear based patterns. The positive, life affirming frequencies that they carry, gently but powerfully help to loosen up, release and transmute the layers of fear that have become stuck in our physical, emotional & mental bodies so that we can see beyond the old story that we have become stuck in.

Four Essences to Help… here are four suggestions for essences that have a particularly strong focus on helping us to transmute the vibrations of fear. Check them out to see which might most help you.

1. Revival Remedy from the Bach Flower remedies

Three bottles of Revival Remedy combination

Revival Remedy is our version of Dr Bach’s rescue combination. In any situation where you find yourself experiencing threads of fear coming to the surface this is the essence to turn to first. It is powerful, but gentle acting and will very quickly help you to find greater balance within yourself so that you can see the situation more clearly.

You can use this essence alongside any other essences that you might be taking as well as any of the other essence suggestions below. In acute, difficult situations take 4 drops on the tongue every 10 minutes until you feel calmer. In less acute situations take 4 drops on the tongue at least 8 x a day. It is great for children, animals and plants in any situation of fear, upset or shock.

Over the years Revival Remedy has been a faithful friend that I have turned to many times for help, so I make sure that I always have a bottle around me in case of need.

2. The Inner Calm Essence

The Inner Calm combination is one of our best selling combinations at the moment. It is a deep acting combination of flower, gem & crystal essences each with a focus on dissolving old fears.

It is a powerful combination to take when you need some support with fear based patterns of any kind. It will very quickly help to release and dissolve the crystallised fears that are holding you back, making it easier for you to release and move on with greater courage.

You might also choose to take this combination in a situation where you find yourself stuck and having difficulty discerning what the issue behind it is. It is highly likely that fear is involved somewhere and the Inner Calm combination will help to dissolve this so that you can begin to see the picture more clearly.

3. The Pink Rose Flower Essence

A bottle of Pink Rose Flower Essence

Pink Rose is a fantastic essence to help bring into awareness any old, forgotten fears that you might be carrying from past lives. This is the essence to use when you are aware that you are feeling afraid but can’t fully put your finger on exactly what it is about. It is also good to help in those situations where your fears have been triggered off disproportionately, by something small and seemingly insignificant in your current life.

In either situation taking Pink Rose for a few days will usually help the fear to pop into consciousness and assist it to dissolve and clear through. Over the years I have used Pink Rose many times to help facilitate understanding and resolution of my collection of old fears. It is still a faithful friend and I am sure that it will help you to walk more boldly along the pathways of your own inner journey.

4. The Strength & Courage Essence Spray

Two bottles of Strength and Courage Essence Spray

Vibrations of fear can very quickly take over and cloud our view of ourselves so that we forget just how powerful we really are as a being of light and love.

The Strength & Courage Spray is the one I turn to when I find myself getting a bit lost in the vibrations of fear for some reason. I find that it very quickly clears my energy field, dissolving vibrations of fear and reminding me of my own innate strength and courage and the love that is my true self.

Use it consistently and often when your inner journey brings you into contact with old stories that contain threads of fear at their core. It will keep you walking forward and help to prevent you from falling deeper into the rabbit hole of fear.
