In this month’s E-Light we explore the energy flow for December which is set to take us even deeper into this process of change and transformation. We look at how we can best keep up with the speed of change, how to engage the help of those parts of ourselves that know exactly how to assist us with this and review the abundance of light, love & spiritual inspiration flowing in for us over the next few weeks.

You can find December's edition of E-Light in the archive here....
NEW Quartz Crystal Essence Set
12th December 2024
The Quartz Crystal Essence set brings together ten powerful crystal essences each made from a different type of Quartz. Quartz crystal essences carry a particular focus for renewal and regeneration. They are very good at providing your energy system with a very accessible template of energetic patterning, one that reminds your own etheric blueprint and DNA system how to realign with your original patterning for wholeness and balance. You can use the ten Quartz Essences in this set to help you re-balance at many levels and flow more easily through this time of transformation in which our energetic systems and physicality are coming into a place of greater balance and wholeness.
NEW Tree Flower Essence Set
2nd December 2024
The ten beautiful Tree Flower Essences in this new set are each made from a different species of tree. Tree Flower Essences hold the vibrational frequency and qualities of a particular tree and help to connect you with the regenerative, restorative properties of trees in a way that your energy system can easily integrate and assimilate. Trees are a wonderful, bountiful and vibrant aspect of Mother Nature. They hold a very strong lifeforce energy, each species with its own particular qualities and vibrational signature. Each of the flower essences in this set will interact with your energy system in its own unique way, helping you to find greater balance, wholeness and wisdom from within.
New Flower & Crystal Essence Definitions
2nd December 2024
We've been updating some of our Flower & Crystal Essence definitions. Some of these were quite old and short definitions and the essences offered so much more! The Essences are such beautiful vibrational frequencies to explore more and this always feels like a real pleasure to do. So here are the updated Essences:
Flower Essences: Yew Flower Essence | Silver Birch Flower Essence | Pear Flower Essence
Crystal Essences: Rainbow Quartz | Blue Quartz | Spirit Quartz | Elestial Quartz | Rutilated Quartz
New Bach Remedy Set Option

Dr. Bach's Seven Groups
18th November 2024
Explore our new shop category for the Seven Bach Groups - the Seven Bach groups are a useful guide to choosing which Bach Flower Remedies will help with particular issues and types of people. Dr. Edward Bach originally created the seven groups as a way of helping people to better understand the remedies. Each of the 38 Bach Flower Remedies are divided into seven personality groups; each group representing the differing ways a particular thought pattern or emotion could be seen and experienced in the personality.
Essences for Loneliness, Isolation & Separation
18th November 2024
We have a new category in our Find An Essence To Help section for loneliness, isolation & separation. All of the essences in this category will help you in different ways with the difficult feelings around loneliness, feeling alone, isolated, separate or shut off from yourself or others in some way. When we step into our hearts and feel a greater inner sense of oneness, unity and togetherness, our perception of life can change quite dramatically. Many of the essences in this category work with the heart chakra or patterns and issues related to the heart as this is where much of the difficulty around loneliness is held. You can explore all of the essence in this new category here....
A Watershed Moment | E-Light Newsletter
18th November 2024
In this month’s E-Light we are looking at the grand opportunities that are being presented to us to contribute to the fast-accelerating process of change and transformation on our planet. We look at the bigger picture, the importance of our choices, and the energetic highlights of November’s cosmic energy flow. We also review how we can best negotiate energetic intensity and the need for us to keep our personal vibrational frequencies as high as we can. You can find November's edition of E-Light in the archive here....
How to Be Fully Present in Your Body
23rd October 2024
The cosmic energy flow contains some pretty intense energetics at the moment and to successfully ride the waves of transformation that these energies are bringing forward we need to remember to stay awake, aware, and fully present in our bodies, anchored deeply into the core of Mother Earth. I have created this short video to remind you how to fully inhabit your physical body and to engage the flow of love and light that connects you with Mother Earth and with Source, in an ever moving spiral of expanding light that can help to hold you in balance and connection, no matter what is going on around you.
Flower Essences are Catalysts for Change
15th October 2024
Embracing & Making Change - what is your relationship with change like? It can be an interesting question because at various times in our lives, we’ll all experience moments when we feel a deep inner need for change. A sense of feeling stuck and that our inner journey has arrived at a fork in the road, an intuitive knowing that something needs to change so that we can move forward in life. A feeling that we need to be able to look at life from a different perspective. Change is not always easy, but Flower Essences are really good catalysts for helping you to make those changes. Find out more about change and flower essences in our new blog post.
The Power of Acceptance: Loving Acceptance Rose Essence Spray
11th October 2024
The beautiful space of loving acceptance is a state that is so needed in the world right now. It takes us out of the right / wrong, us / them, polarized, separative dynamic that has been so much part of our world up to now, and reminds us how to see everything from a more unified perspective, where we are free to make positive, new choices for ourselves. Holding this frequency consistently also means that we broadcast it into the world around us, strengthening the collective field of loving acceptance and offering others the opportunity to remember and connect with it themselves. Our new Rose Essence Essence spray will take you deep into your heart to embody more of the powerfully transformative energies of loving acceptance. You can find out more in-depth here:

The Life of Nora Weeks - the story of the lady behind the Bach Flower Remedies
8th October 2024
Over on our dedicated Bach Flower Remedy website you can find the story of the lady behind the Bach Flower Remedies. This is a story about Nora Weeks, the lady behind the Bach Flower Remedies. Her story is integral to the story of Dr Edward Bach and the Bach Remedies, and it is a story of quiet tenacity and dedication. Without Nora Weeks’ determination to preserve her friend and colleague’s work, it is doubtful that the Bach Flower Remedies and the understandings of Edward Bach would have flourished in the way that they have. Discover more about Nora and how she took Bach’s legacy out into the world.

Staying Awake and Aware | E-Light from Crystal Herbs
7th October 2024
In this month’s E-Light we are looking at how important it is for us to stay awake and aware as we negotiate the powerful, fast flowing energies that are part of the cosmic line-up for this month. We view the bigger picture of what is unfolding and the need for us to be fully present in our physical body in order to be an effective anchor point for change to take place, as well as reviewing some of the ways that we can maintain our point of balance in a changing world. You can find the archive version of October's edition of E-Light here:

Spiralling Deeper into Transformation | E-Light Newsletter
23rd September 2024
In this month’s E-Light we are looking at what we might experience as we spiral deeper into our journey of transformation, remembering how to look beyond the edges of the old patterning to see the new possibilities that are opening up for us and how important it is for us to fully own our own authority and power. We also look at the cosmic energy flow for September, and the opportunities that this will bring forward for us all and, as always we highlight some essences that might be particularly helpful to assist us to move through the month with greater ease and grace. You can find the archive version of September's edition of E-Light here:
Essence Making
1st August 2024
We’ve been busy making some new mother tinctures in the beautiful sunny weather that we’ve been having recently.
Making mother tinctures for our flower essences is a beautiful and heartfelt process and a co-creation with the Devas, Nature Spirits and the Ascended Realms. This is a lovely Queen Anne's Lace flower potentising in the sun. As a flower essence, it’s really useful for the development of clairvoyance ( inner vision ) and telepathy. It opens the crown chakra and calms the mind so it will enhance your ability to see the bigger picture of a situation. Queen Anne’s Lace flower essence is also helpful if you tend to be overly intellectual in your approach to life as it calms the mental body and enables you to make choices from the perspective of your higher wisdom.

Pink Rose Flower Essence: Transforming Deep Seated Fears
23rd July 2024
Fear is very common but it can be a tricky vibration to work with because it feels so real if you get stuck in it. It creates a very effective smokescreen that prevents you from seeing beyond it if you are not very mindful. We can all be affected by fear because it is a vibrational frequency that sits at the bottom of many of the old emotional patterns and stories that we have. Today we’re exploring the Pink Rose Flower Essence which is an excellent essence for when you feel like you cannot get to the root of a deeply held karmic fear or for if you experience general phobias or fears with no apparent cause in this lifetime.
Keeping Your Balance in a Changing World | E-Light from Crystal Herbs
18th July 2024
In this month’s E-Light newsletter we are exploring the opportunities for deep transformation that are being offered to us and how we can best position ourselves to take full advantage of them. We look at the art of managing energetic intensity and how we can stay firmly on our own surfboard as we ride the waves of transformation this month. We also look at the cosmic energy flow for July, the need to manage our own vibrational frequency and the importance of avoiding distraction so that we can stay in balance, harmony and neutrality to help facilitate positive change. As always, we highlight some essences that might be particularly helpful to assist us to move through the month with greater ease and grace.

10th July 2024
The inner journey is one of change and transformation and it’s both beautiful and profound.

Flower Essence Essentials - Our Online Essence Journal
5th June 2024
Art is like flower essences because both are transmissions of energy. Like an essence, art works on the energetic layer and shifts and transforms the consciousness of the person who’s perceiving it. And whether it’s art or essences, the more sensitive you are, the more you will be aware of how this energetic transmission is impacting you. Soul artist and vibrational healer Beki Crowell has spent her life exploring how the beautiful vibrations of nature dissolve patterns of disconnection and she is sharing her story, her wisdom, and a process for you to receive a transmission of Beauty for your heart and your soul.
A Small Price Increase
5th June 2024

We hope that you will continue to enjoy using our range of Flower, Gem & Crystal Essences, and as ever, if you need any help or advice, please do be in contact and we'd be pleased to help.
The Transmission of Beauty: Flower Essences and Art
31st May 2024
Art is like flower essences because both are transmissions of energy. Like an essence, art works on the energetic layer and shifts and transforms the consciousness of the person who’s perceiving it. And whether it’s art or essences, the more sensitive you are, the more you will be aware of how this energetic transmission is impacting you. Soul artist and vibrational healer Beki Crowell has spent her life exploring how the beautiful vibrations of nature dissolve patterns of disconnection and she is sharing her story, her wisdom, and a process for you to receive a transmission of Beauty for your heart and your soul.

Paying Tribute to Colin
3rd May 2024
We would like to offer our heartfelt gratitude and appreciation to Colin Burbridge, one of Crystal Herbs co-founders, who recently passed peacefully into the light on his way to more grand adventures. Colin was one of the founding members of Crystal Herbs and was a stalwart pillar of our team from 1990 until 2011 when he retired. He held a very clear, consistent vision for Crystal Herbs as it took its first steps into the world as a supplier of quality vibrational essences, as well as helping to guide its progress as it gradually developed and expanded.
The Feel Good Norfolk Podcast: Nature in a Bottle with Sam Cremnitz
12th April 2024
Sam was recently on the Feel Good Norfolk Podcast – “The Power of Nature: Nature in a Bottle” – to talk about all things Bach Flower Remedies & Flower Essences. And it’s just been released, which is really exciting! In the podcast Sarah and Sam talk about the importance of connecting with how you’re really feeling and diving deeply into the core beliefs and layers of emotion that we all carry. It’s when we begin to feel into and transform these old patterns that the magic really happens and we move forward, evolve and make meaningful change our lives.

Loving and Accepting Yourself: The Self Acceptance Essence
11th April 2024
Do you sometimes find it difficult to love and accept yourself fully? Deep down, do you have painful feelings of being unloved, unwanted or not good enough? Our Self Acceptance Essence is designed to promote the ability to love and accept ourselves, without condition or restriction. It’s all about dissolving painful feelings of being unloved, unwanted, not good enough, or judging yourself. Loving and accepting ourselves is a foundational part of the inner journey to remember who we are as a reflection of the love of Source. However, for many of us, the inability to accept ourselves as being worthy of love sits at the bottom of some very deep, old painful experiences.
BFVEA – Flower Essences and More at the 2024 Gathering

A Good Read - 3 Reasons Why You Don’t Trust Your Intuition and How Flower Essences Change That!
14th March 2024
Have you ever felt bad vibes about something for no logical reason only to discover later that it was your intuition warning you off? Have you ever felt a strong pull towards a book, a place or a person without knowing why, then realised it was significant for your spiritual path? Our intuition speaks to us all the time through sensations in our bodies, feelings, gut instincts, energetic vibrations and simply ‘knowing’ what is best for us. Flower & Vibrational essences can offer you a way to reconnect with your inner knowing by releasing fears, doubt and uncertainty about trusting your own inner voice.

News Update: A Busy January
31st January 2024
We've been a bit quiet recently on the latest news page, but that's not to say that there's not been a lot going on! January has been a busy month for us with a lot going on behind the scenes, from newsletter updates, to new postage and workshop plans.....
Newsletters: Firstly we have been busy updating our email newsletters. With a new year comes change and we thought we would start 2024 by refreshing our ‘Essences for Sharing’ newsletter. We've added tips for consciously working with Essences, related Essences, and more as well as changing the name to ‘Essences for the Inner Journey’. We feel that this new name better expresses what the newsletter is all about now and we hope that you like it!

A Good Read - Essences for Empaths
29th January 2024
Are you highly sensitive to other people’s emotions and energy? Do you intuitively know things without anyone telling you? Chances are you’re an empath. Many people who take flower essences are empaths, and while the ability to empathise with others means you feel beauty and connection very deeply, the flip side can be feeling the pain of the world and being unable to filter out other people’s emotions and energies.
Festive Greetings and a Very Happy New Year
21st December 2023
From all of us at Crystal Herbs we wish you a very Happy Christmas and may 2024 bring you Peace, Love, Joy & Abundance!
Resolving Anger & Inner Conflicts
20th December 2023
The Inner Peace Essence helps you to release feelings of anger and helps to bring resolution to inner conflicts. It’s also helpful if you find it difficult to deal with anger in other people or find your own anger difficult to deal with. It can also be helpful when there is difficulty connecting with any emotions at all. The emotion of anger is something that we are all familiar with even if we may not be particularly comfortable in its presence. It can be a positive energy if we are able to use it in a balanced and mindful way but quite destructive if it is unmanaged and disowned. You can find out more here:

The Brow Chakra Essence: for Intuition & Inner Knowing

The Brow Chakra Essence is a combination of Flower, Gem & Crystal Essences for opening and balancing your Brow Chakra.
