Who would have ever thought that flower essences could be so powerful and healing?! Well they are and this book will show you exactly how. It’ll show you the actual physical steps on how to create your very own flower essences as well as how to use them in your life to transform your world and facilitate your healing as well as the healing of the collective.

It details how to work with flower essences for connecting with nature such as the moon cycles and Mother Earth, how to use them with balancing your chakras, working with trauma & systemic oppression (how flower essences can support multi-generational, intersectional healing), and certainly last but not least how to meditate with flower essences for ritual, protection, and grounding. I really appreciate the amount of helpful information the author has put into these pages. She has given us a guidebook that we can use over and over again with recipes and healing techniques that hit our senses and open us up.

The illustrations by artist Chelsea Granger, which are ethereal and detailed, are used cohesively throughout the book to beautifully display an array of flowers and other concepts. It’s definitely a book that is pleasing to the eye for a quick browse as well as for a more detailed read.

Thanks to Netgalley, publisher and author for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I work with essential oils so I was happy to review this wonderful book for the publisher. Thank you to the publisher and to Net Galley. This is a wonderful education in using essences. This is a exemplary body of work quite well organized to the use of essences with even various modalities included. I found it well researched and easy to follow with many wonderful new receipes to try. For everyone that works with essences and wants to expand their knowledge this is a must read for your home library. This is a great teaching took for beginners to.

This is a really enjoyable and beautiful book. She presents the information in a unique way. Flower essences are vibrational medicine. She explains this thoroughly, and in many different aspects or points of view. The author also gives helpful exercises throughout the book to guide you on your way to healing yourself and others with
the flower essences. All in all this book is helpful, factual, and a good way to introduce yourself to the field of flower essences.

I thought that this book sounded like an interesting new age topic, and right up my alley for the year: I've just started gardening. However, what I found is that the book is highly philosophical and historical, and not very accessible for my reading right now. I'm sure it is all very interesting and well-researched, but it went a lot deeper than I am able to study right now. Thank you for the opportunity to review this title.

I am very interested in holistic medicine and alternative healing. This book appealed to me because many medications are derived from plants, so I thought that this would offer some of the healing qualities of plants.

This book has a main focus on vibrational healing and using flowers as the way to get to that healing. There was little information provided on how flower essence actual aids in healing.

This book was not what I was looking for and it did not seem to provide the scientific study that was suggested by the summary of the book.

I do have to make note of the artwork by Chelsea Granger. The art within the book is so beautiful it really made the book enjoyable.

The Bloom Book is much more complex than i expected. More than just about flower remedies, the author goes into ways flower remedies can be used in conjunction with other therapeutic modalities such as Reiki, or allopathic medicine. It's quite insightful for those new to spiritual concepts such as intuition or chakras but those well versed could just as easily skip halfway through the book.
