Our Hemimorphite crystal essence is a really interesting and very useful crystal essence.

This is the essence to use when you feel stuck or frustrated because you cannot seem to manifest all that you know is possible. We've just updated the definition for this essence, and have really enjoyed re-connecting with it's energies. You can find out more here:

At a soul level we carry all of the wisdom that we've accumulated over many lifetimes and the knowledge of why we are here at this particular time.

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.

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.

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:

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.

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.

23rd September 2024

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.

As always, we highlight some essences that might be particularly helpful to assist us to move through the month with greater ease and grace.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!
Postage: we have also updated many of our international postal rates, and as we've moved to new Royal Mail dispatch codes, some of the prices have even gone down a little, which is great news.

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:
