WELCOME from SALLY HOLMES REED

Flower and Energy Essences are a very special type of holistic healing that work with the nature spirits and elementals that give form to all living things. Our nervous system receives and transmits knowledge, accessing the bio-energy/life force that is unique to each flower or natural material. Essences work in subtle, gentle and safe ways on the fields of energy within and around our body, allowing healing to take place at all levels.

The Hawaiian language is beautiful and complex. The word, Akua, has many meanings. I use it here to mean the invisible, creative essence of nature, including the nature spirits that surround us. Please use these Essences with deep love and gratitude for the guidance, love, friendship and total commitment to our healing from the Flower and Nature Spirits.

Allow me to be your guide in choosing and working with the vibrational healing qualities of Flower & Energy Essences. Working co-creatively with the Akua, nature spirits, devas and elementals, each drop of the healing waters of Flower & Energy Essences vibrates with its own positive healing quality.

Molly from Green Hope Farm reminds us to follow our hearts when being guided to take Flower Essences.

It is my greatest pleasure to offer my combined training and experience in holistic hypnosis, vibrational healing, meridian tapping, educational kinesiology, breath awareness and Hawaiian healing to begin the process of change, activate healing and inspire a beautiful life with intuition, expertise, elegance, compassion, grace, truth, love and gratitude.

I hope you benefit from the information shared here. If this is different from what you have been taught, I am sorry. Please enjoy what is of interest to you and leave the rest.

Take care, Sally

ARCH and Hawaiian Wisdom

Reiki has been called the Emerald Ray because it operates out of the heart chakra (it's traditional color is green). ARCH, the acronym for Ancient Rainbow Conscious Healing, is the next step beyond Reiki. ARCH uses the full spectrum and encompasses all of the rays. It has the ability to heal instantaneously and resonates at a high frequency.

Not only does it use all the frequencies, but also it first works on the unconscious level, which is where people hold onto blockages that stop complete healing from happening. Then it works on the conscious level and ultimately on the Higher Divine Self.

Hawaiian Wisdom teaches about these three levels of increasingly higher life-force energy called mana (which heals the subconscious) mana mana (which heals the conscious), and mana loa (which heals the divine conscious).

When the mana is strong and people accept themselves as the powerful beings that they are - all things are possible.

Waxing Moon

The WAXING MOON is getting bigger. You can tell the difference between a waxing moon and a waning moon (getting smaller) by whether the cresent is on the right or the left. When it is a waning cresent about to disappear into the dark of the New Moon, it leaves from the left. The waxing moon returns (gets bigger) from the right.

Which comes first?

This is from Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert.

They say an oak tree is brought into creation by two forces at the same time. There is the acorn from which it all begins, the seed which holds all promise and potential, which grows into the tree. There is another force operating as well. The future tree itself, which wants so badly to exist that it pulls the acorn into being, drawing the seedling forth with longing out of the void, guiding the evolution from nothingness to maturity. In this respect it is the oak tree that creates the very acorn from which it is born.

Understanding Flower Essences

Molly from Green Hope Farm says:

Understanding Flower Essences can be a challenge. An explanation of Essences usually includes odd words like vibration and electrical field. To add insult to injury, when you ask us questions, we say more peculiar things like, "Any amount of Essence you use will work fine," or, "Rubbing Essences on your dog's ears will work as well as putting it in his water bowl." How can this be? Here is my latest attempt to explain these marvelous tools.

Flower Essences are INFORMATION, specifically electrical information. Though they come in a liquid, Flower Essences are NOT CHEMICAL. They will not do anything to you in the way that a chemical remedy might kill germs in your system. The liquid in the bottle is a way to store the electrical information of the Flower Essence because liquid holds electricity well. Here's an analogy. The paper that a newspaper is printed on is, to the news, as the liquid a Flower Essence is stored in is to a Flower Essence. Both the paper and the liquid are vehicles for information to get to you. Your electrical system seeks helpful electrical information to maintain itself.

Much as our world concentrates on our reality as physical beings of chemical composition, we are just as much electrical beings, holding various electrical frequencies in our body. Flower Essences offer helpful electrical information to your electrical system which is always problem solving and searching for solutions to keep your electrical system running well. Your electrical system is not controlled by your personality so it makes wise decisions about what electrical information to pay attention to and what to disregard.
.......
When you offer your electrical system the electrical information of a Flower Essence, your electrical system knows if the information is relevant and helpful to its electrical well being. It knows what is not needed. Your electrical system evaluates everything from an electrical point of view all day long. It knows immediately what will literally "add to the light of the situation" and what won't. That is why sometimes you may feel an almost magnetic pull to a Flower Essence. Your electrical system is trying to tune into the frequency of the Flower Essence that it knows will offer helpful information but it needs you to come closer to the Essence so that it can read the data.

To belabor the point (as I love to do!), your electrical system is working for your highest good and will seek out harmony over disharmony. This is why you can trust it to make good decisions about how to use the electrical information of a Flower Essence. First of all, Flower Essences are models of HIGH vibrations. A Flower Essence cannot offer your electrical system a bad vibration of anything. ... It knows what it needs. It knows what it does not need. It knows how to use the information a Flower Essence provides.

When you experience any emotional, mental, spiritual or physical symptom, it indicates that there is an electrical roadblock in your electrical system. Specific symptoms are linked to specific electrical roadblocks in specific parts of your body. This is why our Guidebook can link the vibration of an Essence to a symptom. This is why, if your electrical system solves the electrical roadblock, the symptom is resolved as well.

Many of these roadblocks are daily occurrences quickly solved by life's daily rhythms. For example, when your electrical system needs the restorative downtime sleep provides, you get sleepy and go to bed. Sleep, good food, connection with the natural world and joyful communion with others help us to vibrate more harmoniously and correct temporary roadblocks in our electrical systems.

Flower Essences are roadmaps to help when your electrical system runs into roadblocks that it cannot figure out how to solve. Flower Essences offer very specific electrical problem solving solutions for these more complicated roadblocks.

Your electrical system needs your help to bring the useful electrical information of Flower Essences into your electrical field where it can be read by your electrical system. However your electrical system will make the repairs without your help, once it has the electrical information it needs.

KA LEI ALOHA
Ho’oponopono

CIRCLE OF
LOVE
This is a blessing and a prayer of forgiveness that I have humbly adapted from ancient Kanaka Maoli wisdom.

KA LEI ALOHA CIRCLE OF LOVE KA LEI ALOHA
Ho’oponopono recognizes the negative situation and then moves past it to the positive benefit of the lesson learned from the experience, re-establishing health and balance. Balance is restored to the individual first and then throughout all of creation.

Ho’o
means ‘to cause’ in Hawaiian and ponopono means ‘perfection’.
Pono means to ‘make right’, to ‘rectify an error’ or to ‘restore balance and harmony to all’.
Being restored to pono means being right with ourselves, each other and all things.
In, pono au, we all have the capacity, to create for ourselves anything we desire.
Pule means ‘prayer’ or ‘blessing’. Be encircled with Aloha blessings.

Let’s start easy.
A ke mele ahua a pu’u (I connect with you in the song of my heart).

Visualize clear blue sky to allow your mind to settle and rest…..or just allow relaxation to spread throughout your body. As you relax……. move the energy in your body into harmony, happiness, and gratitude.

Imagine breathing slowly and easily ……….in and out through your heart………imagine your breath glows with white light……and fills your body with each inhale………radiating out from each and every cell……… containing all the colors of the rainbow …….

Be relaxed centered and peaceful. Release and dissolve any holding or tension. Allow this sense of relaxation to wash over you……… allowing love and joy and laughter to flow freely………… learn easily…… know what you know.

Ho – pay attention.

Aloha…aloha…___...___...Nui…Nui…___...___.

Now creating space to breathe….. inhale for the count of 4….. hold it to the bottom of your lungs for a count of 4..... exhale out to the sound of HA.....UH …… the breath begins and gathers power in the solar plexus…the belly….echoes and moves through the heart, then into the throat where it becomes spoken….HA..UH ….exhale to the count of 4………and hold for 4 counts.

PIKO PIKO…inhale in through your naval…na’au …..exhale out through your heart…pu’uwai….allow light to move through your body….
Inhale in through the top of your head… …and exhale out through the bottom of your feet.

And as you breathe... release any tension... any stress from any part of your body...heart… mind... any thoughts, memories and feelings... just let them go....dissolve and disappear… ......exhale with complete relaxation….. Perhaps even making a gentle “ha-a-a-a” sound, releasing all your muscles in a big sigh………… HAAAA……UHHHH….

Allow your awareness to rise above your head into your creative resourceful state above……….

As you breathe allow yourself to begin to experience a deep state of relaxation and …… begin experiencing your own internal power.

Experience how the energy in your body seemingly slows down while you exhale.

Now, as you inhale slowly, send your awareness deep down into the Earth below you, as if you have grown roots, down to the center of the Earth. Allow the power and resources you find there to travel up your roots. Allow this energy to enter through the bottom of your feet, easily moving up through your legs; up through your tailbone, filling your belly, moving through your heart, up through your throat, filling your whole head….front…..back ….and center………Take a moment to imagine every cell of your body completely filled with this energy,…….. opening easily and effortlessly, Again inhale slowly, and think of the sky above you and send your awareness high above your head – as if you have sprouted wings and now can fly far out into the universe………….

Imagine you follow a ray of light back…….. and allow yourself to be filled with this beautiful light through the top of your head……. now......

……Inhale in through the top of your head… …and exhale out through the bottom of your feet………. allowing light to move through your body.. warm energy that sends out rays of warmth and healing that penetrates every fiber of your being. …….. It is warming, relaxing, and healing at the deepest level of your being. ……

Feel the warmth spreading throughout ….. These rays are warming you, healing you, penetrating and joining with all that is you...Now imagine that these deeply warmly relaxing rays are tapping the powers of the universe and are healing and soothing your spirit, mind, and body. ….

experience it, see it, feel it flowing through your body and mind….literally cleaning house…re-arranging your thoughts into a pattern that allows you to become a part of your new future that is light and joyful…

Move that white light down through your body….filling your entire body with that bright white light….feel the energy come all the way down through your body until all of your parts….. mental, emotional and physical…. are aligned…..

Experience and feel that sense of peace flow through you... and sense of well being… and enjoy these positive feelings and keep them with you as long as you like....

Continue to be aware, ala, of your breath.

Kupono, to move straight towards a goal.
Your questions will be answered as the waves of understanding flow in.

State your problem or what you want to change. Intent releases power and energy, Mana Loa
Aloha, the joyful breath of life.
Enjoy the daily peace of blissful living, pa’anai and the true feeling of belonging, ‘ohana, aloha ‘aina

Noho iho i ka malie, be tranquil, safe and secure.
Know you are not alone and infinitely connected to your renewable source.

Ho’oponopono Pule,
Beginning Blessing/Prayer:

A Ke Akua, by your power and agreement
Ka lei aloha i Na KupunaIn the eternal circle of love in which we are surrounded by Spirit
I am in the Moment, noho au i keia manawa

Breathing with intent restores balance and harmony to all…………..being right with ourselves, each other and all things…….in balance……. we all have the capacity, to create for ourselves anything we desire.

Enjoy the feeling of peace and the true feeling of belonging,
As you connect to the breath of life…………… the waves of understanding flow in.......become a moving stream of intention and intelligence.

Say to yourself, “In the providence of the mind I am unlimited.”

Ka Hea, the call, Ho’opaipai hele mai kahea

Ho’opaipai O Ke Nalu, ..... be in the Pa’a, the now...... be receiving….. aligning to the God of Light within….. your own Light Center of Gratitude..… encircling you with Aloha blessings…..gathering of the Halau (all healers in all dimensions, vibrations and energy)….. preserving and restoring wellness

that manifests as the problem, pilikia.

'Uhane Nui, Spirit Greatness, Divine creator,
Original Source of Infinite Love, All That Is,

Aumakua, ‘Uhane, Unihipili as one...
In darkness and light, now and forever

Ka hana mahiki, connect with joy, love, support, respect.
With nahenahe, compassion, Self trust comes to you

I ask from the center of my being, if I, my family, relatives and ancestors
have hurt, harmed or offended you, your family, relatives and ancestors
in thoughts, words, deeds and actions, within or without, above and below
from the beginning of our creation, to the present moment, I Keia Manawa,
awakening to what has always been and will be in the eternal now, Pa’a ,
authentic unto yourself, grounded, comfortable, secure and solid.
Alignment of your body, mind and spirit into vertical time
and for this and all times… forever into the future.

‘olu ‘olu, humbly, ha’aha’a, we ask your forgiveness, Kalana

Take all these memories, thoughts, and feelings, kaono,
layer beneath layer, mahiki
in my mind, body and life, that are attached to any person, place or thing
and release and set free, in this moment, in order to be released and set free,
kala kala i keia manawa …
Allow Spirit Greatness to kala’i, clear, neutralize, dissolve, cleanse, purify, release,
aka, cut all the unwanted negative, memories, blocks, energies and vibrations of any kind and

transmute these unwanted energies to pure light, creating a sacred void,
the emptiness of true freedom…

Now …In ‘oia ‘i ‘o, akahai, hilina’i, ahounui and lokahi,In truth, kindness, trust, patience and unity
I ask Spirit Greatness, ‘Uhane Nui,
to come in and fill the void with pure healing light
and never ending love, Aloha pau’ole,
Journey back to wholeness,
Kou ala a me aloha,
Like a beam of sunlight, please extend a Band of Gold light
around each and every atom, every molecule of reality

I am so grateful for this good work Po’okela, and return to

Mana iho, the power to choose.

I am plenty, I am enough. Life can change.

Give gratitude for the grace received
O ka maluhia no me oe…Peace be with you…

Conscious Femininity by Marion Woodman

The work of Jungian analyst and writer, Marion Woodman. One of my favorite authors. She has taught me well.

Quotes from Conscious Femininity:

I am learning how to move into the conflict and hold the opposites and create a new path.

I am learning how to communicate my own experience of myself without blaming, attacking, or betraying you or me.

Learn to separate what is real from what is unreal, what stays and what goes.

I am learning to identify my preferences and communicate in a neutral way so you can receive them and not be threatened, hurt or betrayed.

Experience teaches me deeper questions and fewer answers.

"The Weirds"

Tree of Dreams by Lynn Andrews:
Through difficult times you struggle to find your balance, you loose your sense of self or identity. The period of struggle is called "the weirds". You redefine your own sanity.
