Bougainvillea - Bougainvillea sp.

Bougainvillea is the poet among the flower essences.

Its essence works on getting involved in one‘s own phantasy that it feels like real, which is a necessary step to make creative imagery and hypnosis work, to consider the impossible, to accept the unacceptable, to enjoy the little miracles in one‘s everyday life, which are so often overlooked. Did you ever think about somebody who calls you that very moment on the phone? Did you ever see faces and  watch movies in the clouds or in the flames of a fire? Then you have an idea of what Bougainvillea is all about.

Bougainvillea makes the common something inspiring and wonderful, it helps to find the sparkle in the greyness of your everyday routine, makes us able to enjoy playing simple games. Losing this ability reduces our life to meaningless struggle for material things, which of course are the basics of existence, but what is a joke without a laugh? Bougainvillea makes everything more interesting and attractive, makes us feel like on a trip to an adventure, when we just go to work. It fills the boring emptiness with little miracles.

This essence helps us to remember our creative side. Do not think this essence interferes with your logical and analytical abilities, on the contrary it adds something new, a creative, funny, magical, sensual and inspiring component. Once you have adapted this ability it is still up to you to decide whether you like to to be rational or silly. Be the director of your own life, but do not leave out its magical aspects.

Let your child and/or your inner child discover magical worlds where other see a street or a field. Bougainvillea enhances your meditation, helps with guided imagery as well as shamanic travelling. Bougainvillea makes you love to flirt with everyday life!
