Flower essences are considered to be the vibrational essence of a flower. They preserve the vital life force of a substance for use in healing.
Though essences made from flowers are the best-known type, some like to call them "vibrational essences" because they can be made from many other energies besides those of flowers. This includes other parts of plants besides flowers (stems, leaves, roots, buds, the whole plant), minerals/gems, animals, energy of a place (called "environmental" essences), light (star, moon, colored), healing energies (like Reiki).
