Hiya Civ! :)
To use flower essences effectively, you must find out which ones are balancing for you and what the dosage is. It could be one or several in combination together. The best way to find out for sure is to use either a pendulum or kinesiology.
Machaelle Small Wright has an excellent book on FE's, and explains how to do kinesiology to test for essences. Basically, you state your intent to do an essence test, place the box of essences in your lap and ask, do I need any of the essences in this box? (test) if positive, test each one incividually. "Is this the essence I need?" (test).
Once you have what you need, ask, "is this the correct combination for me now?" (test) Then test for dosage. "Do I need them more than once today? (test) if yes, then, "twice today?" (test) etc. Or ask if you need them for more than one day.
If you don't want to buy the book, you can learn how to do kinesiology for free from her website. Did you see the link for that? The document is on the www.perelandra-ltd.com site, under the "education" link.
Hope that helps! :)
