Mental/Emotional Flower Provings
Developed by Robert Stevens, NTS, ND
Only God and Nature Heal
— Dr. Randolph Stone
Let us not condemn nature, but try to understand and obey her. She is our best friend, if we first learn to obey. Understanding her, we may work in close cooperation with her to our very great advantage. It may be assumed that all pain and all suffering, mental or physical, which human beings are ever called upon to endure, have as their chief function to drive us toward
a more perfect cooperation with Nature. If only we could learn that lesson
it would save us many a ruined life, many a heartache, and many a wrecked
body. But so long as we do not obey Nature, we must go on suffering endless
ills.
— Dr. Julian Johnson

The 43 Healers
| African Tulip Tree |
helps nature restore balance from trauma during childhood. These intense mental, emotional, and physical disturbances caused a loss of the sense of the emerging self in childhood. African Tulip Tree fosters an inner environment which allows the collapsed child to reemerge into the structure of the ego. |
| Agave |
is for strength. The increase of strength is brought about by an increase in the ability to accept destiny. Strength comes through humility and surrender to the ups and downs of life without complaint. For going with the flow. |
| Banana |
is a key for opening the heart chakra. Banana helps to unfold understanding and unconditional love. Our ability to feel into others is increased, but the aspect of unconditional love brings a warm sense of detachment. Banana brings forth compassion from the heart chakra. |
| Banana Passion Flower |
releases memories of hatred, cruelty, and vicious heartless acts. These memories were observed; they are not a part of one's true character. Banana Passion Flower increases the ability to observe these memories being erased from the consciousness. Very strong feelings will be released, yet the observer within is also being enhanced. This remedy promotes courage, understanding and the ability to observe the release of very strong emotional scars. |
| Be-Still |
is for centering & calming. Be-Still added to any other remedy will mellow the emotional healing process. Be-Still is useful in any emergency or stressful situation. A compass to your center. |
| Bougainvillea |
promotes the growth of healthy relationships, both inner and outer. Bougainvillea lifts sadness and depression caused by early childhood trauma. The mixed messages, the confusion of inappropriate parental role models, the scars of abuse are all eased out by Bougainvillea. The scars of abuse from early years often lead to a deep-seated confusion between the inner female and male polarity. This confusion results in uncoordination on the mental, emotional, physical planes of being. After the sadness and depression are lifted, a clear viewing of the damage to the inner male/female polarity are viewed. Many strong emotions will become conscious, centering around this damage. As these strong currents are being released into the stream of consciousness, an original phase of balance slowly comes into the personality. |
| Cinquefoil |
deals with schizoid knots. The following is an example of a schizoid knot:
Kathy's mother is really busy. The house is full of guests and many additional responsibilities are falling on her shoulders. Mom says, “Kathy, would you please help today and make your own bed. I would really appreciate this and you would really be a good girl by helping me.” Kathy runs with glee to the grown-up task of making her own bed with anticipation toward pleasing her mom. With the task completed Kathy stands beaming next to the made-up bed. She is sure that her job is the best any four year old could do and also feels very happy and proud to help her mother in such a way. Kathy’s mom comes into the room and sees the job Kathy has done. She says, “This is a mess; now look what you have done. I just have to do it over again myself. I already have so much to do and now this just adds to it.” The schizoid knot has tied itself within Kathy's consciousness. There are numerous examples of these knots. Cinquefoil assists nature in untying these knots. Apparently, numerous schizoid knots will eventually lead to schizophrenia. |
| Coral Hibiscus |
assists nature in healing the child that has been dropped or abandoned. The child’s needs have not been met by the parents. These exist within the consciousness as a sense of lack of fulfillment, a sense of hopeless abandonment. This early life experience may lead to addiction in later life. The substance of addiction plays the role of providing a false sense of support and bonding. Coral Hibiscus combines well with Agrimony (Bach system) for problems of addiction. Death of a parent, divorce, adoption, absent parent. |
| Creosote |
builds confidence and inner conviction around issues concerning healing - fear of illness, acute healing, chronic disease, fear of cancer, paralysis, fear of death. Creosote promotes the elimination of toxins, environmental poisons, drug residues, etc. as well as the elimination of emotions which hold back the forces of healing such as worry and fear. |
| Daisy |
balances conditions of the female reproductive system. Emotions which have not been dealt with fall to the pelvis which provides a convenient place to bury them. Here they create imbalance in the female reproductive functions. Daisy awakens these emotions resulting in greater balance. |
| Desert Willow |
is for spirited gaiety, joyfulness and mirth, the lightening of all levels of depression. |
| Ginseng |
increases receptivity to Divine Love. Ginseng flower (American) increases the flow of energy through the nadis (etheric nervous system). This in turn helps increase balanced nervous system functions. The main emotional factor that seems to shut these systems down is deep-seated grief. This flower essence is good for those that cannot release tears. This gift from nature not only releases all aspects of grief, but assists in manifesting a balanced sense of nothingness which helps increase our receptivity to Divine Love. Grief is the elemental emotion of the ether element. Throat. |
| Glory Bush |
is for shock. This remedy is for the elimination of shock and the entire root system of emotions appended to shock. For people that have experienced great levels of shock start with Star of Bethlehem. |
| Help |
is a combination of flower essences useful for any emergency or stressful situation. We often need some extra help in life and this combination remedy offers just that - help to those that are unable to ask for or seek help in life.
Contains Cherry Plum 12x, Clematis 12x, Impatiens 12x, Rock Rose 12x, Star of Bethlehem 12x, Be-Still 12x, Jasmine 20c, and Plumeria 6x. |
| Hyacinth |
helps assist nature to stop or quiet the mental tendency toward suspicious thoughts about other people. The mind projects and worries about fantasies concerning people, coworkers and one’s abilities related them. As a result of this mental activity, the person experiences a severe loss of energy which results in a lessening of all immune functions. |
| Hyssop |
assists nature in healing excessive admiration for or fascination with oneself. All levels of narcissism. Inability to form meaningful relationships due to being in love with the reflection of one's material image. Obsession with one's appearance. |
| Ilima Lei |
assists the inner feminine nature to establish normal, healthy boundaries. |
| Jasmine |
assists the soul in bringing new impulses into the mind. These new impulses will assist the individual in forming new ways of thinking and acting. Jasmine combines extremely well with all of these flower remedies as well as the Bach system. |
| Mullein |
assists nature in controlling attachment to material objects. |
| Olive |
is for peace. Olive assists in resolving conflicts such as disputes and quarrels both within and without. Olive attunes us to peace and attracts contentment into the personality.
This flower essence combined with Help, Ginseng, and Impatiens is useful for the relief of pain (physical, emotional, and mental). |
| Plumeria |
Nature’s potent sedative, induces a deep level of relaxation. When the need to say, I don't care, I just need to let go and relax arises, Plumeria is a powerful aid to letting go and unwinding. This remedy addresses the stress and tension of modern life - insomnia, tight muscles, nerves strung like tight wires. Plumeria helps put life’s demands into a proper balanced perspective. |
| Red Passion Flower |
builds a bridge between the unconsciousness and the consciousness. Opens up communication with buried trauma and the consciousness. For understanding the symbols of dream states. This remedy is very important and useful. |
| Sacahuista |
promotes purging of the fire element — neutralization of false fire symptoms such as neck and shoulder tension, digestive disturbances, liver/gallbladder imbalances, loud voice, yelling, shouting, tight diaphragm, anger, resentment, bitterness, jealousy, hatred, envy, absence of joy, eyesight problems, red eyes, strained eyes, blurred vision, solar plexus disturbances, thigh problems(anterior/posterior), head imbalances, lack of energy, lethargy.
The release of these fire frustrations brings a sense of calmness into the personality. This remedy increases clarity of insight by relaxing, tonifying all aspects of the fire element. |
| Sage |
assists nature in bringing out the predominately yang aspects of assertion, authority, and taking control. For example, your father or some other dominant male figure in childhood exhibited frequent fits of rage. Contact with this rage was terrifying. Within your own being a decision was made that qualities associated with the male (yang) will never be acknowledged. Sage helps foster an attitude of honor toward these yang expressions.
Combines well with Bougainvillea, Ilima Lei & Jasmine to assist male/female polarity balance. |
| Sandalwood Tree |
assists nature in the healing of damaged and disorganized pathways of energetic life force. Combines well with all of these flower remedies and the Bach system.
Use in combination with Ginseng for all nervous system disorders. |
| Self Heal |
removes the masks covering our essential nature. Self Heal touches all of our most sensitive buttons. Opens up those blocks that keep us away from our highest potential of healing.
Caution: This flower essence is very deep acting. Do not use with Spider Lily please! |
| Sensitive Plant |
opens the closed. Assists the sensitive, closed up individual or those that are unable to feel comfortable within themselves and find the outside environment oppressive and invading. Sensitive Plant is suited very well for those with environmental illness and allergies. When our sensitive nature is too acute, this remedy assists in bringing about a balance and allows us to function comfortably.
Combines well with Ilima Lei & Yellow Spined Thistle. |
| Shooting Star |
effectively relieves embarrassment, a state of being thrown into self-consciousness. |
| Silversword |
deals with passion and love. Human life is created out of passion and love. The breath of God has gone forth, and established the rhythm and duration of life’s journey. Material thought views the formation of life when sperm fertilized the egg. Some people are born with an abundance of passion that was originally shared within the act of love as a procreative force. Others are conceived without passion, without the intense desire for producing a child. This person may feel life as passionless, without the spark of life as a mysterious journey toward understanding.
Silversword assists nature in fostering the passion toward life that was absent during conception. Flat liners, no juice. |
| Spider Lily |
destroys the black widow energetic memory form. A portion of the unconscious is trapped within a complex web of feelings. Each strand of the web represents a feeling. The being is trapped within the center of this web like a helpless insect. This entire subconscious structure of the web/black widow spider energy becomes conscious. This is very painful. Spider Lily dismantles this entire thought form.
This remedy is appropriate for males and females. Chronic physical body imbalances may represent the exact area where the black widow energy is attacking/killing the individual. The chronic physical body imbalance is attached via a web-like structure throughout the subtle bodies. Spider Lily assists in dismantling all levels of this deep-seated structure. The destruction of the black widow herself is not easy, nor is the assimilation of what this energy represents. Spider Lily offers tremendous healing power to accomplish this very deep level of healing.
Do not use with Self Heal, please! |
| Tea Tree |
brings the soothing, comforting caress of Nature and the balm of gentleness. Nurture, like being held and rocked within the arms of Mother Nature. |
| Wild Ginger |
assists Nature in uniting the self-divided. |
| Wild Fuschia |
is for attachment to issues regarding past fragmentation of the opposite polarity. The blockage is from the emotional/astral body to the sacral chakra to the 5th lumbar/sacrum junction. This attachment is an intense ball of pain on all these levels which decreases freedom of motion on all these levels.
If male, the wounds to the female side have caused fragmentation. If female, the wounds to the male side have caused fragmentation.
The wounds are of the nature of attachments, inappropriate memories of attachments, worry, confusion, a sense of being cut in half, nonintegrated, distortions around sexuality. The healing of these past attachments results in a deeper inner relationship, an increased balance of polarity, a greater clarity of the female/male forces. |
| Wild Violet |
assists nature in eliminating hatred. Wild Violet will bring forth self-hatred if present. |
| Wind Orchid |
helps us to forgive and forget past darkness. Emotional and mental trauma lodges within the astral and mental bodies as dark energy forms. Wind Orchid allows the release of these darkened forms of thought and feeling. These dark forms come out of the inner bodies like sheets of blackened energy. The process of release is like the blowing of a gentle wind. Yet those dark patterns that are tenacious will cause some negative discharge into the personality. Ability to forgive and forget past darkness will increase. Energy in the physical, emotional, mental levels becomes more resilient. Wind Orchid precedes the use of Bougainvillea exceptionally well. |
| Yellow Ginger |
Each cell has its own cell mind. Yellow Ginger erases (eliminates) the cell mind of hereditary poisons. Treats all known miasmas. |
| Yellow Spined Thistle |
assists nature in breaking chronic symptom patterns induced by a dominating, self-centered parental influence. |
| Ylang Ylang |
fosters an inner awakening of deep trust that life experiences are divinely guided by unconditional love and wisdom.
Combines well with Ginseng and Banana to create what is known as the Love Triad. |
| White Rose |
assists nature in repairing a broken heart. The heart may experience sharp, shooting pains. There may be a sensation of the heart being split in two pieces.
White Rose is administered in the 200c potency. It is recommended that a single dose be given and then wait. |
| Poppy |
A child looks out at the vastness of God, a humble beginning. Safe within the vastness of God, a drop. A feeling of bliss and the being enveloped in unconditional love. As one begins to think and grow into the bosom on “I” ness the small is exchanged for the vast spaces of “I”. Through the eyes of the egocentric everything is cloaked in anything but unconditional love. What happened to the small, safe, perfect drop? Poppy flower essence may offer an answer.
Administered in the 200c potency. It is recommended that a single dose be given and then wait. This flower essence may be repeated periodically through the span of life. |
| Pink Rose |
brings forth a sense of gentleness toward the self and others. Helps to release memories of events in life's journey that were not gentle.
Administered in the 200c potency. It is recommended that a single dose be given and then wait. |
| Rose of Sharon |
complete exhaustion. Deep feeling of fatigue. Thoughts seem slow. Feeling of thickened space within head. Spaced-in. Lack of interest in life, work, interaction. Lack of interest in being involved with any person, event, work, etc. The energy is simply not there to deal with the course of life.
“Leave me alone, I am so very, utterly exhausted.” This state of mind is underneath anxiety. Anxiety requires energy. The more one suffers anxiety the deeper the exhaustion. This remedy helps one to see the underlying state (complete exhaustion) as a result of chronic anxiety. The exhaustion is so deep and vast that when accessed a person is simply unable to be anxious about the trivial events of life. Now the concern becomes: “I am so weak, so tired. How will I carry on with the demands of life?”
Rose of Sharon helps teach flow of life force. It teaches the importance of the consequences energetically of becoming out of synch with the life energy. A relaxer and a friend in setting limits and boundaries. A builder of subtle confidence, but deep confidence. Life is flow. I am a part of that flow. Where is the need to be anxious or exhausted in a relaxed flowing life?
Administered in the 200c potency. It is recommended that a single dose be given and then wait. |
| Fig |
Bewildered, confused. Simple mental tasks difficult to perform.
Example: counting money over and over, can not get amount correct. Numbers confusing. Anticipating feeling of doom. Something bad, terrible is going to happen (impending doom). Sensation as if brain could be bigger in head. If brain would completely fill head thinking would improve. Shortness of breath. Sensation as if not being able to breathe deeply enough. Heart palpation, dizziness. Spatial confusion. Disorientation. Befuddled mental state.
May be useful for loss of memory, effects of stroke, Alzheimer's, senile states, learning problems. Promotes mental clarity.
Administered in the 200c potency. It is recommended that a single dose be given and then wait. |
It is highly recommended to add Jasmine to all medicine bottles. This addition will assist Nature in making healing transitions much more creative and fun.
This recommendation does not apply to flower essences that are 200c potency.
