About The Cornish Holy Well Essences |
What are Cornish Holy Well Essences?
What is an environmental essence?
Edward Bach is said to have made the first documented environmental essence Rock Water by dipping a glass bowl into a pool of well water gathering the water from a source deep underground and then infusing the water with life giving sunlight. He felt Rock Water essence carried the ability to see things freshly and to understand and allow everyone who uses the essence to gain through their own experience and find positive perspective on their lives.
He acknowledged that the water itself has an experience imprinted upon it by its journey from sea to sky and back to earth where it travels in its many forms to every life form on the planet. We have no life without this magical element.
Places where water flows have been venerated from Roman times and it is said that the Romans adapted their water worship to pagan sites which were already part of a pre-Christian culture of divine respect. Medieval monks travelling to spread Christianity built their churches near wells and springs encompassing ancient beliefs into important ceremonies. Thus, wells became holy wells.
We all have a favourite place where we feel rested and restored. Our body and mind respond to visiting the sea, mountain or woodland and we feel rested. This is sometimes described as our innate vibration resonating with what we feel is lacking in ourselves and that visiting our special place seems to recalibrate us. According to new perspective of Einsteinian and quantum physics, the biochemical molecules that makeup the physical body are a form of vibrating energy and everything on the planet has its own vibrational signature or energy.
Just as Edward Bach captured the energy signature of flowers, trees and Rock Water and preserved them with brandy or vodka and water, other essence makers have co-created with the power of places like stone circles and the sea to imbue environmental essences with intuited messages from the natural world. Cornish Holy Well essences are co-created with the naiads, devas, light beings, the Well Guardians, and the person making them, at the site of holy wells and sacred springs with the lifeforce of plants, the weather and time of day when the essences are made.
The intuitive messages sent to us from holy wells and sacred springs respond to our vibrational selves and where we are on our personal journey. Whether selecting individual Cornish Holy Well essences or taking a voyage of discovery with the whole set you are developing a melody for self-development.
Cornish Holy Well Essences are made with a blend of vodka and water enclosed within a bottle placed at the energy centre at a holy well or sacred spring to retain the purity of the contents.

Testimonials
“Lesley Oates’ Cornish well essences are beautifully made. I am currently using All-is-Well made at St. Pialia’s Well, Phillack. It contains ‘Gentle goddess energy that reassures you that the Universe is supporting you in every circumstance and everything is going to be OK’. Just what I need at the moment! “
“I was recently inspired to take Lesley’s Connect Well essence. I was in a very delicate situation that needed dealing with but from which I had been holding back to avoid confrontation. The essence helped me reflect on all sides of the situation and enabled me to speak out in a positive way that led to a resolution and moving on”.

“When I held Transit-well I noticed that I took a deep breath and held it for a few seconds before letting my breath out strongly and with intent thorough my nose. After taking the essence over the next few weeks, I began to realise that holding my breath could relate to waiting for events to happen. At that time there were certain things in my life that I was expecting to happen, and this essence made me feel like there was no hurry, everything had its time; I could breathe easy. I started to feel relaxed. I also had a sense that this essence would be helpful if one was waiting for an event/situation to be over. Holding my breath could relate to an experience that I wished to be finished. This essence seemed to be about timings and allowing events to unfold in their own time.”

History of The Saints & Cornwall
When the first peoples walked across land bridges and plains, our ancestors travelled to all corners and established their custody of the land. They made their primal connection with spirits of the landscape and shore and built round houses on Cornish tors (hills), always close to a water source. Water was venerated as a constant in these precarious pagan times, and it can be imagined how rites of passage would play out as important life moments were reflected in this flow from source.
Cornwall is known for saints, missionaries, that landed in coastal areas bringing their passionate belief in a type of Celtic Christianity that was an amalgamation of Roman, Jewish, Coptic, and Egyptian Christian traditions, taking influences from trade routes through Gaul, Northern Spain, and Greece. High born families sent their sons and daughters to monasteries for a good education, and some became monks and nuns. These emissaries travelled from Ireland and Wales to places like Cornwall.
Saints local to West Cornwall landed in St. Ives Bay at the Hayle Estuary and St. Gothian’s Sands. Those that weren’t massacred by local chieftains settled throughout West Cornwall and their names are linked with the medieval churches that remain as sentinels on the horizon. The sacred waters of our pagan ancestors were adopted by medieval saints who built churches close by, thus integrating their new religion with the accepted ceremonial role of springs and wells thence “holy wells” honoured the sacred spirit of the place.
Pilgrimage walks to St. Michael’s Mount in Cornwall were popular and holy wells and well chapels were visited along the route for prayer and respite on the journey. A revival of twenty first century pilgrims now walk the Saint’s Way in North Cornwall and St. Michael’s Way in West Cornwall as part of the Santiago de Compostello route as pilgrims have done for centuries. In reflection they pass churches, chapel remains and holy wells treading in the footprints of the saints.
