10ml Bailey Essences

10ml Bottle	Algerian Iris (Iris unguicularis) We sometimes find ourselves overcome with desire, the sex drive is an incredibly powerful thing, and we become blinded to adverse factors within the relationship. This essence helps us to take a more light-hearted view of sex and our sexuality so that we can be a little more restrained with our wants, easing the pressure that blind 'love' can put on our emotions. It also helps us to see that our sexuality is a part of our nature and needs to be treated with love.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Almond (Prunus dulcis) Almond essence is the inner teacher and guide helping us to remove ourselves from past troubles and see the path ahead. The past holds a strange attraction to us and it is often hard to let go of, but almond will help us through the challenges which inevitably rear their heads when we are truly finding our right path, it will be a gentle guide during these hard times ahead. It will also help us to see how old patterns restricted our lives and the benefits we received during hard times that we not be able to see without help.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Apricot Poppy (Papaver postii) This little flower grows where not much else can live and its qualities are much the same, bringing inspiration for change to those who have none. This essence is very soft in its action yet is very powerful. It encourages us to move forward, leaving stagnation behind so that we may embrace change and new knowledge with joy instead of dread.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Arizona Fir (Abies lasiocarpa var. compacta) It is unfortunate that in many religions, we are told that enjoying life is not "spiritual" and that life should be hard. This is a distortion of the truth and clinging to this path of suffering is disastrous to our personal growth. Many do not enjoy their lives and do not realise that if they viewed it differently, it is actually an amazing and wonderful thing which should be celebrated. This essence helps us to realise that there is nothing wrong with enjoying life, it softens our rigidity and allows us to truly celebrate the miracles we see around us everyday	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Betony (Stachys officinalis) This essence is for unrecognisable and unidentifiable fears. These fears come from the subconscious and can dominate our lives. They stop us from realising our true worth and can often appear as inner 'demons' due to conditioning at childhood that to be human is to be full of sin. We need to shed light on these 'demons' and see them for what they really are so that we can go beyond this negative thinking. Betony helps in this, helping us to experience the glory of being alive and to see the opportunity we all have to be able to grow and develop on this wonderous planet we call Earth.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Bistort (Polygonum bistorta) This is the essence for those who find themselves at a point in their life which calls for major change, but they feel unable to do anything about it. This is a crisis point for many which ends up with some suffering 'nervous breakdown'. Bistort can help turn breakdown into breakthrough and help those who cannot see the way forward, to realise the support system they have both from others and from within themselves. This can be very empowering and help people to find the resolve and strength needed to rise above thier difficulties and make the necessary changes.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Black Locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) This tree has beautiful fragrant flowers in the spring and it is the energy of the flowers which helps us when we feel vulnerable to attack or undesired attention from others. These feelings can be the result of jealousy or anger and usually the people responsible have no idea what they are doing. What is more, we do not have to believe in attack on this level to be a victim or a perpetrator, we can still experience its effects. If you find your energy depleted with no cause then this is the essence to take. The Black Locust tree also has large protective thorns alongside its beautiful flowers, helping to protect us from unwanted attentions.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Blackthorn (Prunus spinosa) Blackthorn is for the ultimate state of despair, that black hole with no way out. Everything seems lost to folk needing this essence, neither life nor death has no meaning and this is the point where self-destruction becomes possible. From these depths, a way of growing into a much lighter way of life is possible but we must accept the challenge for our growth and acknowledge that a different way of life is possible. This essence can help ease the trauma of these times of change and light the way forward, opening up a new and totally transformed way of life.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Bladder Senna (Colutea orientalis) Everyone has episodes at some point in their life that they are ashamed of or feel guilty about. The wisdom of hindsight often shows us things about the past situation that we do not like now and makes us feel guilty about what we did. Guilt is a very destructive emotion, it takes us away from the present moment and produces unnecessary worries. We need to let go of these feelings and old emotional responses by forgiving ourselves for that which we think we did wrong. This essence also helps us clear out other false and unworthy emotions, cleansing our mind and removing blockages to our progress.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Blue Pimpernel (Anagallis arvensis var. caerulea) This essence relates to our ultimate goal - rediscovering our spirituality after growing up in a material world. We are influenced while growing up by just about everything and everyone around us, only starting to question these opinions and actions as we go through puberty. This essence helps us to untangle true spiritual teaching from the dogmas and teachings of organisations which seek to control us. Blue Pimpernel helps us to discover our real spiritual nature.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Bluebell (Hyacinthoides non-scripta) A Bluebell person will typically be someone who has lost most of their self-esteem, feel rotten inside and dislike themselves intently. They become locked into negative ways of looking at themselves, the cause of this probably coming from childhood conditioning that nothing they did was good enough. This flower helps bring light and joy where there once was darkness and fear, unlocking our hidden potential and bringing about a period of personal blossoming.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Bog Asphodel (Narthecium ossifragum) This essence is for those who look after others almost slavishly but take no care for themselves and their own needs. They cannot see when the time has come for someone else to deal with their own problems without help and can block the healing process for someone by trying to assist at the wrong time. This is a good essence for healers who can find themselves attached to the healing process of someone they are treating. Lightness of touch and slightly whimsical approach are essential to healers if they are to help others fully and not become trapped by their work.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Bracken Alc (Pteridium aquilinum) Bracken Alc. Is for those who still play the role of the child even in adulthood. This may be because of parental or other domination and not being encouraged to take increasing responsibility for their lives as they grew older. The alcoholic extract of Bracken help to dissolve the influence of these old childish states and allow a quiet resolve to develop. These people then begin to realise that they don't need to throw their weight around to assert themselves. It may help to take an essence to help with self-esteem at the same time as this, as most needing Bracken Alc have problems in this area too.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Bracken Aqueous (Pteridium aquilinum) This essence is for blocked psychic sensitivity while still a child. This side of children (all are naturally psychic at birth) is usually squashed by adults who call it childish imagination. This often leads to a deep-rooted fear of the intuitive mind, often thinking that there is something wrong or unreliable about it. These people often appear very logical and 'left-brain'. Bracken Aqueous gently unblocks the intuitive mind, enabling communication on levels other than the logical.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Butterbur (Petasites hybridus) This essence is for those who suffer from a low self-esteem and trust in themselves usually resulting from their situation during childhood. These folk fail to see their own innate goodness and when working on personal growth, will block off their self-esteem and personal power as they are afraid their power will be destructive. Butterbur helps them to open up and trust their innate power as well as develop their self-esteem to see what they should be using it for.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Buttercup (Ranunculus acris) Buttercup is for those who find it difficult to let sunshine into their lives. Because of their experiences, they have a sunny nature which is suppressed and turned into a negative and jaundiced view of the world around them. They are usually cynics with no confidence in others, probably due to past betrayal. This essence helps them to open up to others without prejudice, judgement or suspicion of ulterior motives.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Compact Rush (Juncus conglomeratus) This is the essence for those who feel that life is passing them by, becoming sad as life goes by for what might have been. They feel they have missed out on life and are not being fulfilled. This sadness is suppressed anger at the fact that things were not different, causing resentment towards the actions of others or blame towards themselves. This essence brings about new beginnings, wiping the slate clean and helping us to look on the past with compassion. It opens up the possibilities of the future, enabling us to embrace the present moment with new energy and insight.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Conifer Mazegill (Gloeophyllum sepiarium) Conifer Mazegill is the essence for when we find ourselves in the midst of sudden, abrupt and irrevocable changes in life. Events such as bereavement, divorce or a major natural disaster. These things happen when the old has to die and be replaced by the new. This is a deep acting essence, which may be taken alongside the Grief and Shock & Trauma compositions. When the initial sting has gone from a situation, this essence should be continued, maybe for a few months, to ensure the energy of positive change is activated fully and we do not become trapped by old memories.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Cymbidium Orchid (Cymbidium hybridus) This essence relates to the hidden side of our nature, particularly concerned with the negativities which hide just below the surface of the consciousness. This is where old resentments, anger and repression may be hidden and this essence will help to bring them to the surface. As this happens we see them for what they really are, old shadows from the past and they lose power over us. Cymbidium brings insight and wisdom to our intuition so that we can see the true nature of the dimensions of our being for ourselves.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Cypress Rock Rose (Fumana arabica) This is a very deep acting essence, much more so than the Bach Rock Rose. It is for deep terrors and fears which are difficult to expose and resolve, allowing us to distance ourselves from the cause of the terror. We can then look at the situation without getting emotionally entangled with the energies involved. It is a good essence for those who are feeling suicidal and for those terrified of facing their inner demons and the forces which dominate our lives from time to time. This delicate yellow flower can lead us to breakthrough and total transformation.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Deep Red Peony ("Paeonia lactiflora ""Suminoichi""") We live in a time of great change within our world, a time of cleansing and renewal and the resulting chaos is causing may people to re-evaluate what they are doing and how they view the world. This can be an unnerving experience as we see behind the facade of attitudes, beliefs and opinions. There are an increasing number of children who are being born with symptoms that are medically diagnosed as Aspergers, ADD and Hyperactivity Syndrome among others and they see the world as a frightening place. They are intelligent and often bored by the world they see, causing trouble in school with their honest insights, and why should they take an interest in things which are boring or untrue? Those needing this essence have to be able to harness their energy without the risk of burn out or withdrawal from the world as they have much to offer with their understanding. They have the ability to lead others into a new and better way of living. They have the ability to see how mankind as a whole should change and if they cannot release their powers of wisdom, they end up feeling alienated and alone. This essence is particularly for those who are growing up as a spiritual being in a materialistic world, bringing out their latent potential at a gentle pace.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Delphinium (Delphinium consolida) On old maps, areas of unknown territory used to be marked with "Here be dragons", indicating the fear of what was there in the unknown. This essence helps us to access the "Here be dragons" areas of our minds without fear knowing that what we discover there will be for our benefit. It helps us to develop insight with a wide perspective so that we are able to see as wide a view of a situation as is possible. This can be uncomfortable for many but it is a vital part of our progress.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Dog Rose (Rosa canina) This is the Wild Rose of Dr Bach's Remedies but the method of making this essence is different and produces different qualities. This essence helps us when times are hard, when we need loving support from another source to that of our friends and family. When our hurt and need have gone deep, such as in bereavement, we need something to bring solace and support without dulling the senses. The Dog Rose helps to take the sting out of situations, yet provides us with comfort, support and protection.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Dwarf Purple Vetch (Vicia villosa ssp. Eriocarpa) This essence is for old patterns, usually originating in childhood, relating to relationships and sexual attitudes. It works particularly well for difficulties which arise during puberty. During this time changing personal power and sexual roles often produce anguish and uncertainty producing blockages in the understanding of the opposite sex. The desire to relate to our opposing gender is often stifled by fear of being ridiculed leaving open relationships impossible with the opposite sex, sometimes the idea is even revolting. This essence frees us from the ghosts of the past and enables us to open the door to our true personal and sexual freedom.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Early Purple Orchid (Orchis mascula) This essence helps us to get in touch with our true nature particularly when we are getting rid of old patterns but new ones have not yet taken root. At times like this we can feel vulnerable and without a sense of identity, leaving us open to falling back into old ways just because they are familiar. Early Purple Orchid helps to dissolve the blocks, including those within chakras, to bring harmony to mind, body and spirit. This essence can often assist the actions of another, for example that of Milk Thistle for a blocked-off ability to love.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Double Snowdrop (Galanthus nivalis flore-plena) Double Snowdrop is for those who need more flexibility in their lives due to frozen attitudes. Sometimes they seem as if they have been left behind clinging to patterns belonging to the past. The folk needing this essence will feel stuck in a rut and unable to get out of it. They need insight to see that everything is changing and that change, uncomfortable as it may be, is necessary and a fact of life. It is the change these people fear and this essence helps them to rejoice in the newness of life again. They begin to see that nothing is the same from moment to moment, breaking up rigid attitudes which keep out joy and freedom and feeling a sense of security through this period of transformation.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Firethorn (Pyrancantha atalantioides) This essence helps us to balance our fire energies, which can become unstable when we suppress emotions, often caused by old conditionings, so they build up and stay hidden until they finally explode. After this release of energy, people will often panic and retreat into themselves. Suppressing emotions in this way means a person will 'blow hot and cold' making life very difficult for those around them. This essence brings the ability to let emotions ebb and flow as they should bringing greater tranquillity. Once the energies stabilise in this way, the causes can be seen and healed, if they haven't been already.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Foxglove (Digitalis purpurea) This is the essence for those who feel they have lost their way in life. They can lose all drive, knowing there is a way out of difficulty but not being able to find it. This creates frustration meaning that although there is usually a clear way out, they are blind to it. Foxglove reduces our emotional entanglement with the difficulties we see before us, creating distance form the problem. This quietens the mind so that new ways of looking at things can emerge and a way out can be found. Those who are always looking for new therapies may benefit from taking this essence.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Fuji Cherry (Prunus incisa) A tense mind creates a tense physical body. Fuji Cherry encourages the mind to relax and brings in a sense of calm and detachment from worries and difficulties. As the mind relaxes, the stress in the body eases. Take this essence to help you develop a quiet, reflective mind.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Flame Azalea (Rhododendron calendulaceum) This essence reminds us that to work with others in ways suitable to us is a large part of what life is about. We all need solitude form time to time but we will not reach our full potential if we cut ourselves off from others. Flame Azalea helps us to remember the energy and power we have within enabling us to face an uncertain future knowing we have the choice in what happens. Taking this essence helps us to regain our life force and to co-operate with those around us to bringing a sense of loving purpose. This essence works well along with Conifer Mazegill when someone has had major and sudden change in their life helping to energise the new situation and changed life direction for the best.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Flowering Currant (Ribes sanguineum) Flowering Currant is for those who feel they are facing inevitable defeat but still have the energy to keep going. They try to protect the spark within but the emotional pressure can make them feel twisted, indeed their physical body may reflect this. The trouble with these folk is they don't recognise their own strength and power of insight, finding it difficult to look at what opposes them. They hide their faces away hoping it will all go away, not realising that facing up to what stands before them is the way to overcome the difficulties. This essence helps them to let go of their fears and open up to the reality of the situation at hand so it can be dealt with as it should.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Forsythia (Oleaceae intermedia) Forsythia helps us to open up to our spiritual nature, bringing joy and a sense of freedom. It helps us to get rid of outgrown ideas which would get in the way of our development and encourages us to open up to our own spiritual reality which our logical lower brain tries to oppose. This essence also helps us to keep an open and non-dogmatic mind.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Giant Bellflower (Campanula latifolia) This flower helps those that want to change their lives. It gives us the ability to get rid of the old and bring in the new and smoothes the path ahead to help us along the way.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Greater Celandine (Chelidonium majus) This essence is for those who fear their spiritual nature. Many put up a mental block between ourselves and the source of our reality. There may be deep rooted fears to do with death or the psychic dimensions of life and they may seem bitter and self-hating. Greater Celandine helps to dissolve the barriers between the two sides of the brain allowing the intuitive side to take its rightful place as part of the whole bringing a new alignment of mind-body-spirit.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Hairy Sedge (Carex hirta) This essence is for those who find it difficult to live in the present and tend to dwell on the past or possible futures. This can cause problems with short term memory. These people can be brought into the present with the something that has an impact on their wellbeing or by something which gives them pleasure but it is usually short lived. There may be a reluctance to see what is really happening around them as they feel threatened in some way, causing the memory to be selective with anything they don't want to know. Hairy Sedge helps bring them into the now and to see the whole picture without feeling any threat to themselves.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Hawkweed (Hieracium vulgatum) This essence is for the despair brought about by a lack of self-confidence. These folk feel like they have lost touch with their roots and there may be a feeling of being lost in a hellish alien world. There is a sense of being a victim and pressure such as this can cause abrupt personality changes. Hawkweed gently helps to ease us out of depressive emotional states, allowing us to feel at home in the world again with a greater sense of balance and inner wisdom.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Heath Bedstraw (Galium saxatile) Heath Bedstraw supports us as we let go of our tensions and find new and better ways of living. Change on a personal level is nearly always challenging as many of our beliefs are put to the test and found to fall short of our actual needs. The stress of this may be enough to make us want to stop our transformation and go back to our previous ways. This essence helps us to relax and feel supported in these times of major change and can be used with other essences used to actively promote the changes needed.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Himalayan Blue Poppy (Meconopsis betonicifolia) This flower is able to help us to recognise the talents we brought into this world with us and then to develop them for our personal fulfilment. We need to build on skills and strengths we have brought with us to this life if we are to reach our potential in this one.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Holly Leaf (Ilex aquifolium) Holly Leaf is the remedy for anger and resentment, it mirrors our difficulties in its sharp defensive prickles. There are two forms of anger, firstly we have the natural and healthy reaction to unreasonable provocation which we can express appropriately dealing with the situation and secondly there is the anger we are unable to express which is held in the mind and body emerging as resentment. It is the second kind which causes us problems. This essence works in two ways acting as protection so we don't rise to the bait so readily and it also helps to take the sting out of a situation by deflecting any desire to hurt us.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Honesty (Lunaria annua) This is the essence for a lack of openness and receptivity. This can happen when the intuitional aspects of a person are active in a negative way. The assertive side of a person (Yang) has usually been suppressed and then the feminine aspects (Yin) attempt to assert themselves. The problem with this is that the Yin cannot imitate the Yang side of a person and this leads to deceitful behaviour as we try to keep control of a situation. Honesty helps us to overcome the need for this behaviour and encourages openness and honesty. As this happens a balance comes about between the Yin and Yang energy.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Honeysuckle (Lonicera periclymenum) Honeysuckle possesses very strong healing properties with regards to sadness and loneliness. These feelings isolate us from others and when we feel isolated we turn away from the world and become introverted. This essence helps us to change our energy at a subtle level making us more approachable to others. We open up to the world as this essence dissolves the barriers we put up and eases the pain in the heart.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Indian Balsalm (Impatiens glandulifera) This flower brings quietness and healing to the mind which is overrun with thoughts which cause distress. It does this by reducing emotional tensions in the mind, enabling us to take our thoughts less seriously. This in turn helps the never ending loops of negative thinking and to quietly observe the world around us in peace.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Ivy (Hedera helix) Ivy helps to us to ground ourselves in situations where shock or similar circumstances might tend to make us lose the will to live. There are times in everyone's life when we feel life is just not worth the effort. It might be some unfortunate accident or just fortune that makes us crumble like this and whichever it is we will need some help to help us feel rooted in this world again and make us feel secure and loved. Ivy encourages us to put down roots once more and live life again.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Larch (Larix decidua) This essence is for awakening the true power of Yin within us - the power of the intuitive and receptive. Yin represents many things in the East, it is shadow, it is depths rather than heights, it is soft and it is nurturing. It is receptive and intuitive within our nature rather than logical and mental. Yin wisdom is far deeper than Yang ideas of truth. This essence helps us to balance the Yin side with our Yang side, which is something both men and women struggle with this most of the time. Men tend to be dominant Yang and because Yang fears the wisdom of Yin, Yang tends to dominate Yin. Yang covers this by thinking intuition is just wishful thinking. Larch is a powerful activator of the Yin energy and helps the Yin side to be more assertive so that we can hear our intuition above the logical side of our personality.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Leopardsbane (Doronicum pardalianches) This is the essence for those who are waking up to who they really are, whether consciously or not. They may feel they are living on a knife edge and indeed in the extreme, may even think they are going quite mad. It is actually a positive sign that they are breaking through the veil of conditioned thought. However, these feelings can lead to serious depression and maybe even suicidal thoughts. Leopardsbane lessens the attachment to emotional extremes and allows one's perceptions to broaden so that they can see beyond pain and suffering. They begin to accept that madness is part of life until someone begins to wake up and change the way they see, feel and think. This essence helps you to see your own suffering and that of others in a new light of compassion and understanding.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Lesser Stitchwort (Stellaria graminea) Lesser Stitchwort is for those who need to escape from thought patterns which influence them. These can be their own or those imposed on them by others. They can become dominated over by these thought processes and we need to reduce our dependency on them if we are to break free of them. When we can do this, we let go of everything we don't need and keep that which we do. This essence acts as a guiding star during this process, lighting the path ahead and giving us insight and encouragement along the path we will see ahead of us.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Lichen (Marchantia polymorpha L.) Lichen enables us to bond firmly with the universe and all that it contains, not only at the material level of the physical earth, but also at the psychic and spiritual levels which are all part of who we really are and where we come from. This is not always an easy essence to take as it can be uncomfortable for us to realise just how much we are a part of things, we have a tendency these days to feel detachment from many things including the very source of our being. This is because true love is not an easy thing to accept when you are not used to it but it is vital for our health and well-being.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Lilac (Syringa vulgaris Massena) This essence is for those who have had their personal growth stunted, usually during childhood, by dominant forces of one kind or another. They may feel shrivelled up and unable to blossom fully in life. This may be echoed in a stunted physical appearance. This kind of domination leaves them unable to express what they feel like but this essence encourages an opening up so that we can begin to grow and develop once again. It may be the case that folk who need this flower have become addicted to being a victim and as such will have difficulty accepting their own value and potential. Lilac gives love and encouragement as we open the door to our cage and begin to go through this major change of releasing our bonds.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Lily of the Valley (Convallaria majalis) This is the essence for those who desire things which are unobtainable. It may be that they are in love with someone who does not return the feelings or they may yearn to contact the 'spiritual realms' and cannot achieve it. We cannot reach these things while we are so stuck in our own desperation and as such the answer lies in giving up the search. Lily of the Valley helps us to find the 'empty cup' within us so that what we truly need can find us and enter. The real secret to this is trusting the forces that created us in the first place to provide that which we truly need and not that which we think we seek.	£5.30
10ml Bottle	Magnolia (Magnolia x loebneri Leonard Messel) The essence of Magnolia is concerned with our Heart Chakra and is associated with love and compassion. The message of this flower is simple, surrender to love and to your own inner wisdom which knows no limits. This is not an easy thing to do as we are used to the sentimental side of the love we know, which is not true unconditional love. This essence shows that true love does exist and that while it can present us with challenges, it will also provide us with the answers.	£5.30
10ml Bottle
