For over 44 years I have researched and documented how roses affect every part of our major cultures since ancient times. Roses were used in prayer, foods and beverages, medicines, skincare, haircare, natural perfumes, celebrations, births, deaths, emotional trauma and to attract lovers. ancients understood roses to raise and intensify life experiences in beautiful ways.

My Mother used to soak roses my Dad grew in water and drink the water, saying "it makes you feel good", but how?

I remember from physics that everything living has an electromagnetic frequency and is in constant motion. All is measured in a standard system of units as electromagnetic radiation and sound waves that pass a point in 1 second. Hertz measures 1 wave cycle per second. Kilohertz measures 1000 waves per second of sound. Megahertz measures 1 million sound waves per second of sound.

A wavelength is measured between the distance of crests or peaks. The shorter the wavelength, the the higher the frequency will measure. This frequency is a measurement of  constant vibration motion of sound. For example, 1 megahertz is close to the center of A M broadcasting radio waves.

Megahertz measures sound waves beyond human hearing. Ultrasound exceeds 200 megahertz. Cats and dogs can hear sound on the lower end of of ultrasound. Very high frequency is used in medical imaging for MRI and PET scans.

In comparison, Roses, especially antique roses, have the highest plant frequency at 320 megahertz! Lavender, another lovely herb with fragrance is 118 megahertz. Compare these measurements to humans, resonating from 5 to 16  megahertz. For a human to experience joy, happiness, 30 megahertz is needed. It only takes 40 megahertz to enhance the frontal cognitive thinking mode.

Roses and other flowers have a consciousness that raises our frequency to enjoy more in life. They sense our feelings, pain and energy. This is called Primary Perception. Plants see light and color. Recently, scientists have discovered plants can make neurotransmitters without having a brain. They may be instrumental in finding ways to change brain chemistry affecting many diseases in the future.

Roses communicate their aroma to us in 1/100th of a second, raising our frequency in ways we experience as joy, alertness, increased awareness and compassion.

In my research in hospitals, clinics and private practice and experiences, I used antique rose and flower essences to beneficially affect personality traits, self talk and help recuperating from emotional and physical trauma. Roses reduce triggers from painful memories, allowing the personality to correct deficiencies and experience greater success.

The effects are immediate, yet subtle and profound. One mother, bought a rose essence for her son, who politely refused it. She decided to wear it. Weeks later, I met her again and hardly recognized her. She was radiant and beautiful, moving through life challenges with grace. Her son had recently decided to use the essence also. She came for a refill.

a friend was putting 2 drops of a rose essence in her husband's coffee to enhance his mood. son didn't believe it could help until they were stuck in a Dallas- Ft. Worth airport traffic jam. As her husband's mood changed for the worse, her son exclaimed, " Get the drops, Mom!".

Roses affect us in many beneficial ways. Explore hundreds of recipes, remedies, foods, beverages, aromas, skincare, pet and child care using roses you can also learn to grow and enjoy. These roses originated millions of years ago and evolved to support and celebrate humans and nature. You will never look at roses the same way after reading Antique Rose Collection with over 100 colored photos of the most ancient to modern roses.

For the past 35 years Harmony and Relaxation therapeutic blends have been used successfully in patient care to reduce the Nocebo effect. The blends are used before and after chemotherapy and cancer treatment at Baylor Hospital's Healing Environment program in Dallas and Irving Texas Patient care began with bone marrow and stem cell patents and quickly spread throughout all departments, including speech therapy. Topical application allows the aromas to be used with other modalities.

The Nocebo effect occurs when expectations and negative suggestions cause symptoms or illness to occur. Nocebo effect is both biochemical and physiological, displaying with a variety of cues. Cortisol and histamine levels dramatically increase, targeting adrenal and hypothalamus involvement. Recently, Ted Kaptchuk at Harvard medical, proved Nocebo occurs without conscious awareness.

 Therapeutic aroma blends lessen anxiety and unconscious responses. I have clinically used Harmony and Reduce Stress essences in the United Kingdom and USA for over 25 years to balance a full spectrum of stress. These aromas change brain chemistry within seconds affecting moods and fears. Given a repose from the stress response, the brain can adjust to homeostasis.

How mitochondria dysfunction impacts illness

Mitochondria produce energy in every cell and organ function of your body.  They combine hydrogen from dietary carbs and fats with oxygen to produce ATP and heat.  ATP is energy produced for most cellular biochemical reactions.  Mitochondria also regulate cellular calcium and allow cells to die and regulate how long they live.

Impairment or defect of mitochondrial function caused loss of energy and organization, leading to genetic and complex illness.  Mutation of genes in Parkinson’s patients has been related to mitochondrial impairment. (The Scientist, Feb. 2011: “The Genes of Parkinson’s Disease”) Mitochondrial dysfunction causes DNA deletions in the substantial nigra of a Parkinson’s brain to mitochondrial dysfunction to date.  Other illnesses associated with mitochondria impairment include chronic fatigue syndrome.  This illness involves several organs and systems; a mutation in DNA is cause by mitochondrial dysfunction.  There are hundreds of research papers describing mitochondrial dysfunction leading to DNA impairment in cancer patients.  Several neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s, ms, epilepsy and autisms are related to mitochondrial dysfunction.

Dopamine (neurotransmitter) releasing neurons in the substantia nigra of the brain require large amounts of energy. Without this energy, the neurons die a premature death, which can lead to Parkinson’s or palsy (shaking limbs.)

Petite Fleur Essence Energy aromatic blend enhances dopamine neurons. It reaches the brain through inhalation to help produce energy. Energy Blend can also reduce stress by allowing for more glutathione for cellular energy.

Multiple Sclerosis / Seizure / Fibromyalgia

Multiple Sclerosis causes extreme nerve pain in the arms and legs, difficulty walking, muscle weakness, poor balance, memory loss and visual disturbance. Inflammation of the protective myelin sheath coating nerve fibers in the brain, brain stem and spinal cord causes scarring over nerve fibers. This slows and even blocks nerve signals controlling muscle coordination and strength. Lymph Flow and Circulation Booster lotions massaged on the arms and legs, twice each, daily reduces symptoms. Mobility blend massaged on the neck 3 times daily can be applied to enhance nerve signals. Regenerate blend reduces scarring.

Seizures can result from abnormal electrical activity in the brain causing convulsion, staring, muscle spasms and loss of consciousness. Essences that reduce trauma include Reduce Stress and Manage Pain. Harmony blend can enhance proper rhythm to electrical impulses. Relax the Shoulders lotion, applied to the neck and shoulders daily reduces tension and trauma from injury. Daily use of these products is necessary to improve symptoms over a period of several months.

Fibromyalgia is the most common musculoskeletal pain disorder in the Western world. Symptoms include fatigue, depression, pain, burning or stiffness in the hips, shoulders, neck and spine. Irritable bowel, sleep disorders, headaches and dizziness may also occur. Fatigue and Manage Pain essences are most helpful in reducing recurring pain cycles. Pain Management and No More Pain lotions help lower back, hip and shoulder symptoms. Relax the Shoulders alleviates neck pain, numbness and dizziness.

Hormonal changes can increase pain and occurrence. Female Balance and Male Power support hormonal balance.

Irritable bowel is sedated by Abate Anger blend and strengthened (immunity) by Inner Strength.

Deep Sleep and Relaxation blends enhance sleep patterns and restore health.
