The Five Element Formulas [EN]

by Cynthia Athina Kemp Scherer. Soft cover, 72 pages, English. ISBN 9780996252744.

Studying the five elements — the air, earth, fire, water, and wood elements — is a way of understanding fundamental characteristics that each person has in varying degrees.

This book introduces each element and how to recognize its effect in yourself and others. The process of looking through the filters of the elements can be insightful and fun.

Most importantly, it can help you learn about yourself, why you view the world as you do, and why you react in certain ways to situations in your life. It can show you what you need to feel safe and secure in your life and dealings with others. It can also help you understand more about others’ perspectives and actions.

When one or more elements are out of balance, either to an excess or deficiency, desert flower essences can help restore you to a sense of well being. The composite formulas offered for each element have been used for over thirty years to help people find balance with the characteristics that the elements embody.

The approach in this book is not about learning a set of rules to use the element formulas, but rather to give a foundation that you can use with your own insights and creativity.

It is truly an art to create balance with each of the elements. This work can be a beginning point to understanding your unique elemental balance and how to achieve harmony within you.
