The Master's Flower Essences were developed in 1977 by Lila Devi. She choose the essences based on the psycho-emotional descriptions of different fruits and vegetables made by the famous teacher and yogi Paramhansa Yogananda (his book Autobiography of a Yogi is a spiritual classic).Yogananda felt that food has a consciousness and by ingesting a certain food we benefit from its vibration. This is particularly true of flower essences which are made from the part of the plant which contains the highest vibration: the flowers.

The name, Master's Flower Essences, also has a further meaning - the attainment of self-mastery and inner freedom. Flower essences can be an important tool to assist us in the process of becoming masters of our own lives. Life is a series of changes, ups and downs, joys and sorrows. The 20 essences which make up The Master's Fower Essences represent the qualities needed to live life in a balanced and harmonious manner.  We may have little control over certain events, but we do have control over how we react to them.

These essences are prepared from organic fruit orchards and vegetable gardens in the Sierra Nevada foothills and the island of Kauai.

Lila has also written a book on the Master's Flower Essences entitled The Essential Flower Essence Handbook: remedies for inner well-being.
