5.0 out of 5 stars Gently, Profound Wisdom for Healing the Personality, February 11, 2001

By

This is an excellent book for guiding oneself in healing self-limiting aspects of one's personality. I have found remarkable success in following the principles and essences outlined by Ms. Devi in moving beyond some negative thinking patterns. With a focus on the positive prototype of one's potential personality or being, rather than a focus on "what is wrong or not good enough", I begin to see immediate success and reassurance that I can free myself to become more of who I know deep within myself I am. I cn stand back (with Banana) and see my traditional patterns of reaction and thought to situations, (with Avocado) find new thoughts and possibilities, and (with Tomato) feel more capable of changing old patterns for new ways of thinking and feeling. This is such a gentle, yet highly effective methodology. I have seen several of my friends respond as immediately as I did to the higher qualities of the flower essences which Ms. Devi outlines in her book. Bravo!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best essence book I've read!, October 18, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Essential Flower Essence Handbook: Remedies for Inner Well-Being (Paperback)

I've dabbled with several types of flower essences but none have worked for me like these. Lila Devi developed her essences based on the the ancient teachings of yoga about foods and the spiritual qualities they enhance. These essences change your consciousness and in my experience the results are immediate. I've had great success with orange for depression, and date for opening my heart. A friend of mine had immediate success with avocado to correct his sense of spaciness and lack of focus. Lila Devi's writing style is clear, readable and filled with people's own stories which illustrate the qualities of the essences. Her book is a complete guide which teaches you how to evaluate yourself or others for essence use and also how to make them yourself. She also sells the essences if you'd rather use those. I used to work in a natural foods store in the supplements section. When people asked for recommendations around an emotional issue I usually suggested flower essences and the essences that seemed to work the best for people were these.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating and delightful!, August 6, 2000

I was immediately drawn to reading this wonderful book from the start. The first line of Lila's introduction reads:' This is a book about becoming the master of your own life'. How? In addition to healthy living, by keeping ourselves in a state of psycho-emotional balance through the use of flower essences. A few years ago I had the pleasure of attending one of Lila's weekend workshops on Master's Flower Essences. I came away feeling emotionally and spiritually uplifted as well as being energised. Lila brings her wisdom and practical experiences of these flower essences, along with her own beautifully composed music for each flower essence, which she plays and sings joyfully! Master's Flower Essences are practical for use in everyday situations. Both my wife and I have used them with positive results, helping us to live more in the expression of our highest potential. I enjoyed reading Lila's delightful and fascinating stories, illustrating the positive and practical benefits of using Master's Flower Essences. This book is easy to read, very clear, informative and ajoy to read! I would recommend all therapists, councillors and those who seek to master their own life to read this book.
