Addictions Busters Flower Essences

Whatever your patterns of addictive behavior are, Addictions Busters hones in on them and repairs the urges that keep you hooked.

Dealing with addictions is one of the toughest cultural dilemmas of our times.  There are many forms of addictions:

-- smoking/tobacco
-- alcohol
-- drugs (whether prescription or "recreational" and illicit)
-- shopping
-- gambling/gaming
-- sex
-- food (either overeating, or addictions to particular food groups such as sugar)

Often, too, a person can overcome an addiction to one substance or behavior, only to switch patterns and use something else to cover up painful or uncomfortable feelings, or to help them feel good enough to make it through the day.

Addictions are definitely a problem, because of the lost time -- and quality of life -- for everyone involved.  Addictions destroy health, relationships, jobs, families, and lives.  And while there are many books, self-help programs, therapies and ways to deal with addictions, one of the least known -- and most powerful -- is natural:  flower essences.

I'd like to share my own personal story about one form of addictions (to cigarettes) and how I ultimately overcame it using flower essences and natural remedies.  For me, it took over a decade of failed attempts -- humiliating defeats-- until I began using flower essences and homeopathic remedies to help me.  Those worked where nothing else had.  And yet, it was one of the hardest things I've ever done.  So I know from personal experience how important flower essences can be in recovery.

And then I want to talk about how flower essences can help you get ready to face -- and deal with -- your own addictions, to whatever substances or behaviors may be keeping you (or a loved one) from leading a full, happy, healthy life.

The flowers that go into formulas for addictions address all the issues that you need to face:

-- denial
-- painful or uncomfortable emotions that have you reach for a substance (or bad habit) to cover up something in your life
-- the physical component of addiction; how your body is currently wired to create cravings
-- how to stop cravings cold -- for once and for all
-- withdrawal symptoms while you detox
-- recovery and sustaining new, healthier patterns and habits

The flowers contain the wisdom that you currently lack -- about what to do, what to change, and how best to help yourself become the free person that you long to become.

If you are drinking alcohol or using substances such as drugs (whether they are prescription drugs or not) you will need to stop taking them (or in the case of certain drugs be in a medically supervised detox program) in order for the flower essences to work.

The only times the flower essences have not worked is when the information they contain was unable to reach the consciousness of the person taking the formulas -- because the circuits were being "overwritten" with the chemical imprints of the substances they were using.  Don't let that happen to you!

That is why it matters that you get (and stay) clean and sober in order for the flowers to do their work.  If you can -- on your own or through a program or course of therapy of your choice -- manage to make the decision to stop and not put any more of the substance into your system, the flowers will work to get you past the addiction.  Period.  But you have to take that first step.

Are you ready?

Then reach for the flowers instead of your favorite addiction.  You will be so glad you did.

Oh.  One more thing.  For people worried about whether it's safe for them to take flower essences because the ones you buy in a store come in alcohol, with our formulas you have a choice of preservative.  (So that's not an excuse. . . )

Our default preservative is red shiso (in a white vinegar base) because it holds the formula very stably.  But depending on your personal needs, you can request any of the following preservatives instead:

-- vegetable glycerine (made from coconuts)
-- white vinegar
-- brandy (not for people recovering from alcohol or drug addictions)

Regardless of your special need, there will be a preservative that will work very well for you.  Just let us know which one you need.

Do allow the flowers to help you heal from one or more of the worst problems of our time:  addictions.
