Salal (Gaultheria shallon) – Walk the beauty way. Enlivens seeing beauty in the simple things in life. Encourages enjoying and receiving nourishment from the tasks and pleasures of daily life while keeping your attention on the larger picture of your spiritual process.
As the essence says of itself:
I AM beauty, presence and spirit in daily life activities.
Medicinal, Food & Wildlife Qualities:
Salal is a very common understory shrub in the North American Pacific Northwest coniferous forests. It grows from sea level to middle elevations, sometimes forming impenetrable thickets. Salal was an important food source for many First Peoples of the area. The dark juicy berries were eaten both fresh and dried into cakes. Salal berries were used to sweeten other foods and to thicken salmon eggs. Sometimes they were traded or sold, usually in combination with other native berries. These days, salal berries make a wonderful jam.
Symptom:
Use Salal Flower Essence when you think that spiritual practices are more important than mundane activities. Or when you get caught up in doing daily and "spiritual" activities and forget to feel the "spirit", the beauty, the heartfullness and the joy underlying the actions. Being rushed and looking forward to what is next instead of paying attention to what you are currently doing.
Action:
Salal Flower Essence helps you to remember that you are spirit having a human experience. That what you do is much less important than how you do it. Whether you are a fireman, nurse, yoga teacher, environmental activist, mother or meditation teacher, the way you feel yourself, the way you connect with your inner spirit is vital to the quality of what you contribute to others. It is also vital to your light-hearted sense of wellbeing and spiritual process. Salal flower essence supports pleasure in the simple things of life and presence in the moment with whatever you are doing; for example, cooking or eating a meal, washing clothes, taking the kids to school, watering your garden, going to work or taking a nap in the sunshine. Go de-Light-fully through your day.
While the essence was being made, gemstones of amber, cavansite, green tourmaline, icosahedron quartz, moldavite and drusy quartz were placed among the plants with the storage (mother) bottles. The sun acts as a transformer to step down spiritual energies from higher dimensions. While the essence was being made, Amber acted as a lens to receive and focus sunlight for this purpose. Amber also aligns the subtle bodies with the physical bodies, transmutes negative energy into positive energy, and emits a sunny and soothing energy that calms and enlivens the disposition. Cavansite supports receiving information from higher dimensions, connects you with inner truth, and enhances your ability to communicate that. It is soothes your frayed nerves and helps you to relax. Green Tourmaline helps you to overcome fear of change, enlivens your energy fields, and strengthens the heart. Icosahedron cut quartz has 20 (5X4) equilateral sides. It is a bridge between the 5th Dimension - the entry into the unified Spiritual realms - and the 4 cardinal directions (N, S, E, W) on Earth. Moldavite was formed as part of meteorites that fell to Earth more than 15 million years ago. It serves the inhabitants of Earth by facilitating strong, clear, and direct interdimensional interconnectedness between your consciousness and the higher planes of Light. Drusy Quartz crystals help to energize and stabilize your subtle bodies. The actions of the gemstones inform the way this essence seats into the physical body.
