How New Zealand Fern Essences Support Emotional Healing

Aotearoa, New Zealand is a very special country for many reasons one of which is the sheer variety and proliferation of ferns that are endemic to this land. As a distinct feature of the landscape of New Zealand, ferns can be found growing on the highest mountain peaks right down to where the land meets the sea.

In her book the Sacred Plant Medicine of Aotearoa, Franchelle Ofsoské-Wyber, creator of First Light Flower Essences of New Zealand® says that because native New Zealand ferns have over 400 million years of evolution behind the, this makes them the unique carriers of the special powers of nature that have the ability to access deep levels of the human psyche or soul and restore neutrality and equilibrium.

This quality of neutrality and equilibrium is what we can lose when we are traumatised.

“We only begin to heal when we address our initial wounding and its associated pain and trauma. This trauma can result from a single event or from repeated experiences of abuse or deprivation”.  

Anthony Wyber
