We are confident that you will not have a diet consisting only of flower heads such as broccoli and cauliflower. We all know how important it is to have a diet consisting also of root and stem vegetables, of fruits, nuts, seeds, and primary protein sources.

Likewise, with essences that promote your inner growth and balance, it is vitally important to have varied diet to generate essence wellbeing. Flower essences need to be balanced by using falling leaf, root, seed and tree bark essences. Flower essences have only about 10% of the transformational potential inherent in the whole plant, so it is impossible to achieve a well-balanced growth with flower essences alone. You might like to look at the Birthdate Essence section to get an idea of which essence families are most well-suited to your individual constitution.

Overconsumption or exclusive consumption of flower essences to the exclusion of counterbalancing essence families can lead to a variety of problems, just as a diet consisting of broccoli and cauliflower heads alone would generate profound deficiencies and imbalances. As with the Wheel of Wellbeing in general, your essence wellbeing flows from the principle of balance.
