What is a Quick Guide?

What you see below is four years compilation of proving information garnered from stage 1 and 2 provings on flower and gem essences. A prover is a sensitive person who, for a period of time, takes an essence (and does not know what they are taking). They then, as the essence's energy moves through them, write down all the effects and symptoms it creates in them, on a piece of paper. The effects may be spiritual, mental, emotional or physical. Every one of them is written down and noted. In homeopathic language, a symptom is known as a "rubric". All provings are placed under strict homeopathic proving protocols.

The information is then garnered and accumulated and appropriate HEADERS (in capital letters) are created to put that particular rubric or SYMPTOM in that section.

A stage 1 proving is done by one or more individuals "out in the field" when they are making the essence. They note the botany, the soil conditions, the weather of the plant they are making an essence for. They drink some of the mother essence water and write down how it is affecting them. This is just the beginning of a 3-step process to find out what a particular flower or gem essence is about. Those notes are put on file for later compilation.

A stage 2 proving is done by a group of people, two or more. Sometimes upward of 20 people. They do not know WHAT the essence they are taking, is. They put four drops under their tongue, close their eyes and wait for it to move through them. As it does, it creates very specific symptoms on the spiritual,mental, emotional or physical planes of themselves. A second "round" of drops is taken about five minutes after the first. A stage 2 proving takes,roughly ten to fifteen minutes to undertake. A proving manager is there, and is the only one who knows what the essence is. The manager is careful not to in any way, psychologically affect the provers by body language, voice tone or saying something inappropriate. The proving is done in absolute silence. No one is allowed to talk to anyone else.

After the proving, the manager then calls upon each prover. That prover gives his or her symptoms that s/he felt during the proving process. What we find out, every time, is that no matter how many provers are involved, or how few, we find the same symptoms coming up again and again. The manager writes all of this information down, questions the provers for more specifics, and then the provers hand in their notes from the proving to the manager. All this information is then collated and collected and placed under headings, such as below.

The "quick-guide" is a compilation of stage 1 and 2 provings. We also conduct stage 3 provings, but they are two-weeks long, and the provers do not know what they are proving, and they are from around the world and male and female. The information from these provings is going into a huge data base and will be published in book form and in ongoing volumes. The name of that book series will be: Flower and Gem Essences Materia Medica and Repertory. It will have color photos of each essence that has been proved.

Our provings are rigorous and scientific. We do not "intuit" the plant at all. What you will find below is hard evidence, painstaking details, and countless hours of work to bring this information to light. It is not clairvoyantly conceived, nor from intuition, but felt by sensitive provers who actually experienced the symptoms.

HOW TO USE THIS GUIDE:

1. Match your symptom(s) by choosing the heading (in capital letters) and looking for the rubrics (symptoms) of the provers who took the flower or gem essence. Their initials will be behind the entry. If you find one without initials, this is an observation made by Eileen based upon Stage 3 (2-week proving) proving and it is considered a strong aspect of that essence and can be counted upon to be utilized as such, beneath whatever the heading is.

2. Go through the entire quick guide in order to identify as many of your symptoms as possible and write down the essence on a sheet of paper. We suggest you take the main or major symptoms that are bothering you the most, and not minor ones.

3. Once you have listed the essences which directly parallel your symptoms, look for matches or repeats of a particular essence. For example, you might have five symptoms, and 3 of them fall under Chaparral. The next question is: Are those symptoms the WORST ones for you? If they are, then you need to order Chaparral.

4. If you have, as an example, five symptoms, and you have three different essences that parallel them, then you will have order all three. Or, another way to do it is to take your WORST symptom, and purchase that essence only, and start there. Many times, we find that just ordering that one essence has a "trickle-down" effect and you'll be surprised at how many "other" symptoms (sometimes major, and many time, minor ones) will be addressed.

5. We suggest using no more than five or six essences at once. However, for maximum benefit, we suggest the use of one, if possible, and perhaps, two, if necessary. The strategy here is: less is more. Using one remedy is like a bullet fired at a bulls-eye. Using a 2, 3, 4 or 5 essences is like firing off a shotgun at the same bulls-eye--it has a scattering effect. One essence will engage your Vital Force and work hard to alleviate the symptoms. You CAN use combinations; they do work. But because of the 'scattering' effect when it engages your Vital Force, it is slower and you must (usually) take them for a longer period of time. However, that's not always so, because all people are uniquely different. What works for one may not work for another, etc., so there is some experimenting you must do on yourself and your Vital Force to know what works best for you. And the only way you will find out is to try it out.

WILL YOU BE ADDING TO THIS BASE OF KNOWLEDGE WITH OTHER ESSENCES AS TIME GOES ON?

Absolutely! We've just begun. Unfortunately, the man hours to compile this information is tremendous, so it is an ongoing labor of love. You can always tell if something has changed or we've added new info. Simply look at the REVISION information at the beginning of the Quick-Guide. It will also have a date. If you garnered your information from rev. 2 and it says rev. 3, now, then you should peruse the Quick-Guide and see what's new and what's been added. We have over 100 essences that we have proving information on. The only problem is that we don't have the time to devote exclusively to it--so it gets worked on by volunteer interns who want to work for free (free board) and spend at least a week with us working on the material. The more interns we have, the faster the information will be posted to the Quick-Guide.

DOSAGE: When you order the essences(s) the instructions are on the bottle: 4 drops beneath the tongue 4 times a day. In acute emergencies,you may take it as often "as needed" which is dictated by the circumstances you find yourself under. Once the acute symptoms go away, STOP taking the essence. Do not take it again unless or until the old symptoms come back.

WHAT IF I'VE HEARD OF ANOTHER FLOWER OR GEM ESSENCE AND AM INTERESTED IN IT. HOW DO I KNOW IF YOU CARRY IT OR NOT IF ITS NOT ON YOUR 'QUICK-GUIDE'?

You can look throughout our Flower and Gem Essence sections of The Medicine Garden. Most of the essences we are or have proved, are in there, but with much shorter explanations and no symptoms/rubrics such as you find in our detailed Quick-Guide. Simply email Eileen Nauman at docbones@gotsky.com, and ask. Please describe the symptoms you want to get rid of once and for all, and she'll be able to tell you and suggest an essence--if we have it or if we are aware of an essences that produces those symptoms, which you have--and she'll email you back, usually, within 72 hours.

IF I HAVE A SPECIFIC DISEASE AND I DON'T SEE ANYTHING LISTED IN YOUR 'QUICK-GUIDE' WHAT DO I DO THEN?

Flower and gem essences work on symptoms, not medical diagnostic labels that you might be used to in traditional medicine. Instead, we apply our information along homeopathic philosophical lines and that is: we look at all your symptoms, without giving it diagnostic label, and then find a suitable essence(s) that will parallel them, and then suggest the essence(s) to you. Simply email Eileen Nauman at docbones@gotsky.com, and ask. Please describe the symptoms you want to get rid of once and for all, and she'll be able to tell you and suggest an essence--if we have it or if we are aware of an essences that produces those symptoms, which you have--and she'll email you back, usually, within 72 hours. This service is FREE.
