Positive Effects
This Essence teaches us to be in the now moment. It slows us down. Expands awareness of ourselves, the world around us and our intuition. We can learn to focus.

Indications
When we desperately need to slow down, when events around us seem out of our control. For when we cannot focus and our thoughts are scattered. When we have lost our connection to people, ourselves and the world, because we are on the fast roller coaster of life and cannot get off. For when we don’t give ourselves time.

Qualities
Being in the Now moment means you have slowed down and are paying attention to the details of life, your thoughts, your body and how it feels and what it is telling you, conversations and how they impact, the flow of life, the coincidences and what they are saying. The right side of your brain is working in a more balanced way instead of the controlling left side. You begin to have expanded awareness in the Now and life takes on a new sense of values.

Positive Effects
To Teach you to be aware of how you are being in every now moment.
To teach you how to be still, quiet and peaceful. To stop your minds endless chatter.
To become aware of your contentment with life, realising you no longer need to strive, compete or yearn.
To learn to access your inner knowing.
To learn to be in your heart not your head, and what this means and feels like.
To be rather than do.
For self realisation.

Indications
For when you feel a desire to know more about yourself.
For when you realise there is more to you than your everyday self.
For when you ask the questions who am I and what am I .
For when you are out of balance and doing is all you do.

Qualities
This essence is for when you stop allowing life to rule you and realise you can rule your life. That you are a being in your own right, a spirit having an experience called life. This essence allows you to access the part of you that you had hidden, your heart self??who you truly are. When you master the art of being you can be in balance with the side of you that does the doing [which has been in charge up until now] P'taah [A spiritual teacher] once said it is how you are being while you are doing that counts.  It is helpful to take Slow Down Essence in conjunction with Being.

Positive Effects
Maintaining a centered state; maintaining the integrity of our emotional body. Remaining tranquil and calm in the face of adversity, not getting drawn into the dramas and chaos of others, and not taking up their anxieties.

Indications
For when we loose our centered states by being impacted by the anxieties and fears of others. When we are inclined to be knocked sideways and dip in and out and we are unable to keep ourselves on that emotional even keel.

Qualities
As we grow in consciousness and are able to access our heart space , be in the joy , be tranquil and serene , we are at times unable to maintain these states when all around is in chaos and people are in fear and anxiety. To be a beacon to help emanate calm and peace we need to be able to maintain these states of being. For our own welfare as well as that of others. I think of The Dalai Lama’s face and how he maintains his serenity, this essence helps us to do this.
