I know you certainly feel ridiculous playing with little wooden cars, making „wrrrmm-wrrrmm“ noises with your lips and imagining that you are a racing car driver. But wouldn‘t it be nice to get so deeply in touch with the world of fantasy and imagery for a little while?
Be proud of your inner world -- this is Bougainvillea‘s message.

Our Mamboya Archetypal Essences kit consists of a spectrum of remedies to provide healing for difficulties related to certain Jungian archetypes. Archetypal essences are meant to make flower essence therapy more complete and holistic and are not intended to replace other flower essences. Archetypal essences do not work on the emotional level but on the unconscious level. In archetypal flower essence therapy, we look for a basic weakness of an archetype that causes the symptom.

Everything that exists in the material world is simply the manifestation of a certain idea behind it: an archetypal idea. The archetype determines size, form, color and character of everything it creates. In the 1930‘s, it was the Swiss psychoanalyst, C.G. Jung, who took up the concept of archetypes, defining them as blueprints of the human soul.
Jungian psychology claims that each person has not only an individual unconsciousness based on archetypes, but that there is also a collective unconsciousness that contains ideas and images common to every human being on Earth, no matter their age, sex or place of origin. The collective unconscious can be understood as the home of the archetypes in everyone. This home has, for example, original images of women and men that help with the orientation of being part of the human society.

When I first learned about flower therapy, I was taught to use lists of questions in order to choose essences. Although the lists were very rational, patients usually felt they needed many of the Bach Flower essences. Choosing from the list left me feeling like I making a Flower Therapy Supermarket shopping list. Sometimes I just talked for along time to the patient, but setting priorities among the possible choices was occasionally difficult.
I do use my intuition, mostly in setting priorities between remedies, but I rely even more extensively now on clients‘ drawings and dreams. In working with patients, I provide color pencils and paper in the waiting room and encourage the patient to feel free to draw whatever he or she wants. We begin the interview as usual, but toward the middle, we discuss the drawings, and I show them Bach flower photos from a deck of cards as a way of choosing an essence.
