I use this essence before a workout at the gym for motivation and strength.
Prickly Poppy is happy to give away seeds and pods for healing. The touch of the prickles is not too painful—it turns my fingers tan, a color gifted by its natural berberine content. Berberine is known for its ability to fight infection and restore balance in the body, especially in cases such as yeast overgrowth. It’s fascinating how even through touch, Prickly Poppy offers cleansing and protection.
One flower is enough for a Prickly Poppy essence. Prickly Poppy feels incredibly sacred.
It is a plant endemic to Hawaiʻi, and this essence contained one flower and two seed pods. The infusion brewed the evening of September 6, 2025, through the morning of September 7, 2025—an overnight infusion during a lunar eclipse. The essence was tended by lava rock during the infusion, in a similar manner to the Flame Tree essence.
For sacred discipline, intentional movement, and embodied strength.
Prickly Poppy Essence carries the medicine of presence in action. Created under a lunar eclipse with a single blossom and two seed pods, it anchors the energy of movement as meditation — strength that is both physical and spiritual. This essence reminds us that power can be sacred, purposeful, and grounded in the body’s natural rhythm.
