Dear Friends:

Since our last correspondence in December 2007, we are happy to announce that with the blessings of Swamiji we have made considerable progress toward launching Yogananda's Spirit-in-Nature Essences in India. We believe that our product has the potential to be quite successful from a financial point of view and also as an instrument for spreading the teachings of Yoganandaji further in India.

Yogananda's Spirit-in-Nature Essences are now available in Mumbai in the following areas:

• In Dadar with Satishji during the satsangs: contact 2414 5283 or
  92243 68351.


• In Juhu with Seema at her holistic salon: contact 2660 6566.


• In Andheri (W) with Yogesh (during the satsangs) on 5697 6377 or
  98671 93394.

In Gurgaon, they are available at Ananda Sangha and at Ananda's store, The Wishing Tree, on the 2nd floor of the Metropolitan Mall.

In Noida, at Ananda Center (during the satsangs) Sector 52, E–18.

Claudio, Deborah, and Indu welcome Surekha and Gitanjali from Delhi, who have recently joined our team and we are now looking to expand our presence in Delhi and the NCR by outreach such as introducing promotion offers, offering seminars, and approaching the holistic community in Delhi.

We have seen that personal contact is the most effective way to help people to understand what the essences are and how they work. If you feel drawn to learn about the essences and sharing them with others—either among your own circle of acquaintances, or more broadly as a practitioner—please contact us.

We are looking forward to hearing from you, whatever your level of interest in the essences. You can phone us directly or email us.

Blessings, Deborah and Claudio Gregorelli

Yogananda's Spirit-in-Nature Essences

What are flower essences?

Flower essences are herbal infusions that stimulate and awaken positive qualities already within our own nature. Nature has given us fruits and vegetables so that we might benefit from their nutritional sustenance; flowers so that we might be inspired; and flower essences to help us transform ourselves through their purity and power. In taking the essences, we manifest their positive qualities in our lives.

All flower essences do the same thing: they restore us to a state of balance in which our internal, intelligent life force is activated. Life force is the real healer; the energy of the flower essence creates a vibrational resonance that gently stimulates the life force. And since the uplifting qualities embodied in the essences are our truest nature, to resonate with those qualities is only natural.

How to take them?

Take two to four drops under the tongue, four times daily. (the first one on awakening; the last before going to bed). Essences can also be added to water, juice, or tea. Topical application, especially on the wrists, is equally as effective. As with homeopathy, take them without food—ten minutes before a meal or one hour after.

Their effectiveness is greatly enhanced, however, when combined with specific affirmations, uttered out loud or mentally with concentration, will power, and energy. Repeating affirmations helps to engage the conscious mind and uplift the subconscious mind, and can strengthen the benefits of the essences. The affirmation can be found on the box of each individual essence.

Flower essences work vibrationally rather than biochemically; they do not need to be absorbed into the bloodstream or go through the digestive system to take effect. They are completely safe to use: nontoxic and without contraindications, side effects or the possibility of overdosing. Their benefits are complementary to other herbal therapies and treatment. Please note that flower essences do not directly treat physical symptoms.

How can I know which essence(s) to take?

Unless you have a clear "hunch", start with Pear for peacefulness. In most cases, this essence will clarify which essence to take next. Our list of 20 essences along with the spiritual qualities listed in our brochure will help you determine what to take. Trust your intuition. Also, with every workshop, we offer time for private consultations.
