Floral essences from Madeira will spread the island’s good vibes around the world.
Madeira in your pocket… could it be? If essences from its flowers are collected in small flaks, then yes!
That is what Madeira Mountain Flower Essences proposes. This project was started fifteen years ago at the Madeira Orchid Gardens and consulted with a Canadian firm. Its purpose is to use essences from Madeiran flowers to relieve us from harms wrought by our daily routines such as anxiety, stress and fears.
It is all about ‘taking people in a travel through their fears, to reach peace’. That is the motto of the project as it aims at spreading the good energies of the island around the world.
This comes out of extensive research done on the volcanic soils of Madeira which, coupled with its microclimates and the fact that it is at the mercy of the Atlantic winds creates unique conditions for plants to grow in.
The result? Forty seven essences sold in small flasks that work as a food supplement which aims at balancing our physical, emotional and mental energies through the life force of the plants grown in Madeira. The goal is a state of total wellbeing.
Their idea is in fact quite simple: you just add some droplets of your chosen essence(s) to a bottle of water and drink it throughout the day. Say, if you wanted to take care of dizziness and an associated blurred vision, you would treat those with the essence extracted from the famous bird of paradise (Strelitzia). Should you instead want to treat a skin rash or nervous twitching around your mouth or eyes, you would do well to use the passion fruit flower (Maracuja Edulis) based essence. A number and a mantra are assigned to every product.
But, if you want to learn how to use these products to their fullest, you would be better off taking part in one of Madeira Mountain Flower Essences’ training sessions in which each and every single one of these forty seven essences are explored in detail.
