About the essences

Infused preparations made from native Australian bush flowers, taken as drops under the tongue. They work with emotional patterns and unconscious beliefs. The range was developed and researched by Ian White in the 1980s.

No, and Neimiah makes both. Essential oils are concentrated plant oils that work through scent. The four aura sprays are made with essential oil, water and a dispersant, and the scent is the point of them. Flower essences are made by leaving flowers in sunlight, and they work with how you feel rather than through scent. Your personal essence is a flower essence.

No. Flower essences are a complementary practice. They are not medicine, not a treatment for any condition, and not a substitute for medical care. Please keep doing whatever you’re already doing and speak to your doctor about anything health-related.

Light. Lavender is soft and floral, rose geranium is floral, frankincense is woody and earthy, and lemon grass is bright citrus. They’re mists rather than perfumes, and they don’t linger on fabric.

Choosing and using

Seven drops go under the tongue, morning and night, for a usual two weeks. The bottle is discarded after 30 days. If you miss a dose, just move on to the next one.

The aura sprays last indefinitely, just use them as you need them. The 30ml personal essence has an expiry date of one month.

Most people take one essence at a time and let it finish before starting another. Sprays are different, you can keep more than one and reach for whichever suits the day.

Aura sprays can be used around others without concern, with a little discretion. If you are pregnant or have small children, check with your GP first before using bush essences.

Consultations

We talk for about half an hour, by Zoom or on the phone. If you are on the Gold Coast, I am available for in-person consultations on request. You tell me what’s going on for you at the moment, I draw some essence cards and give you an intuitive reading. Afterwards I choose your essences, curate them by hand and post them to you, with a written list to keep. It costs $70, which includes the reading, the essence and postage in Australia.

No. You don’t need to have anything worked out or said well. Most people don’t, and that’s the point of talking to someone.

Monday to Saturday, between 8am and 4.30pm Australian Eastern Time.

Yes. I’ll speak with the person it’s for rather than with you, and the essence goes to them.

Orders and postage

Sprays are posted the next business day after your order. A personal essence is made after our session and posted the next business day after it. Australia Post usually takes 2 to 7 business days from there.

Nothing extra. Postage anywhere in Australia is already included in the price, and it stays included whether you order one bottle or several. Everything is sent with Australia Post.

Because every bottle is curated by hand and personal essences are made for one person, I can’t resell a returned bottle. If something arrives damaged or isn’t what you ordered, write to me within 7 days and I’ll put it right. Full policy here.

Anything else

You are buying from me, Neimiah. I curate every bottle by hand on the Gold Coast and I read every message this shop receives myself. ABN 56 392 075 506.
