The healing power of flowers permeates every aspect of our lives. Flowers help us mark every event and ceremony from birth to death and bring us joy and solace throughout the years. They have inspired poets, authors and artists and come to symbolize the whole range of human experience. From exuberant red peonies to sweet-smelling primroses, exotic lilies and heavenly-scented roses, flowers have the power to reconnect us with the conscious intelligence of nature that we are a part of and to heal our ills in a myriad of ways. Anne McIntyre’s revised and expanded edition of her previous work The Complete Floral Healer tells the story of the mythological and historical origins of flowers in healing and medicine and reminds us of their significance which is as powerful today as it was in ancient times.
Beautifully illustrated with vibrant color photographs by Julie Bruton-Seal, the book explores sixty-four flowers from around the world – from Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) to Heartsease (Viola tricolor) alongside chapters on edible flowers, growing and gathering, and distilling flowers. Each flower entry reveals the plant’s historical and folkloric importance, details the modern medicinal use of the flower as a herbal remedy relating to its biochemical constituents, and explores its use in aromatherapy, homoeopathy and as a flower essence.
