Guidelines on How to Use Essences

Guidelines for Use

GREEN MAN ESSENCES are handmade using traditional methods. The energy signatures are held in water and preserved in brandy.

All our essences are provided at “stock” level which allows you to dilute
3-7 drops in a dosage bottle containing a water or a 60/40 mix of alcohol.

Flower and vibrational essences have traditionally been taken by mouth, that is, a few drops placed in a small glass of water or in a small dropper bottle full of water. A few drops can be placed under the tongue

Some people find the following useful:

Putting a drop on the pulse points (wrists, throat, neck, forehead, soles of the feet)
Putting a few drops on your hands, rub them together and then sweep around the body, a few centimetres above the skin or clothes
Rub a drop of essence between your palms and then cup your hands near your nose and breathe in the essence as it evaporates
Put a few drops into an atomiser or sprayer containing water. Spray around the body or room
Add a few drops to some massage oil
Add drops to your bathwater
An essence can be very effective when placed upon a specific chakra or meridian point.

A good guideline for using essences is 3 or 4 times a day, or you can determine the frequency or method by dowsing or muscle-testing.

If you wish, the essences can be provided as small sugar pilules, please ask .

Individual experiences with essences will vary. Sometimes there may be strong reaction, emotional or other. If this is uncomfortable, reduce or stop for a while. Remember, these essences help you to change yourself - they do not create change by themselves.
