Flower Limpias ~ a shower of happiness
“Wow, Aunty Eleanor, you should do this for everyone who’s been in a war!”
~ out of the mouths of babes. This is what my forthright sensitive niece aged eight said the first time I gave her a flower limpia treatment, a beautiful ritual with flowers that invites peace, love, and clarity.
It is simple physics that a bunch of flowers does indeed sweep away heavy loads, and then carries a wave of beauty and high vibration into your being. We know it from just receiving flowers as a gift.
When a beautiful bunch of flowers are intentionally prepared and used as a treatment - it’s life force in action!
Limpias—spiritual cleansings—are powerful rituals used to clear negative energy, emotional blockages, and spiritual imbalances. Flower Limpias are known for their beauty, gentleness and alignment with the heart.
It’s a natural medicine tradition, used by many cultures, sweeping flowers over the body to bring balance. When you study the physics, it’s frequency medicine, especially when it’s given by another person who directs the energy. A trained practitioner knows how to create a force which both discharges to clean, and then also generates a positive charge to leave the person with a feeling of vitality, energetically strengthened.
The first time I myself had a healing with a bunch of flowers was right at the beginning of my training in Mexican Curanderismo.
It was the first type of limpia we learnt, and we could only use white or yellow flowers at the beginning. I was lucky to be taught in a structured way to experience the different qualities of magnetic forces for different life-force elements.
~ A profoundly big bunch of little yellow chrysanthamums hit my chest, and a big movement of energy followed. What filled that space was joy, liquid sunshine entered my heart and I laughed. It was a direct transmission.
Regular flower treatments are a beautiful resource for anyone, and you can feel a tangible energetic shift! I know as a practitioner, when giving a limpia, it is either a temporary movement, a sweet blessing, or it will remarkably move things - it can be either, but it will bring you into balance, touched by beauty in the moment. They have certainly helped me in times of sadness.
Benefits of a Flower Limpia
Flower limpias are often sought in times of emotional stress, depletion, disassociation, illness, heartbreak, fatigue, major life transitions or also celebrations. You can expect to feel:
Lighter or “unburdened”
Emotional release and relief
Deep relaxation and peace
Reconnection with one’s intuition and centre
Energetic realignment and protection
Because flowers carry high vibrational frequencies, they restore balance in a subtle but powerful way.
Limpias can be done in private, or as part of a group activity which often heightens energetic support. Retreats, healings, baby blessings, before or after ceremonies, hen celebrations are also good places to have one.
