Poppy offers a gentle descent into rest, into depth, and into the places we often resist going. This essence can help to support the kind of surrender which facilitates a conscious release instead of the collapse into dissociation that we’re culturally encouraged towards. It can help us soften the grip we hold on control, vigilance, and emotional patterns we’d rather not let go of. For those navigating grief, exhaustion, or spiritual fatigue, Poppy can create space to drift inward and allow what’s been buried to slowly rise.
I find that Poppy essence can help to ease the nervous system, open the gates to dreaming, and offer support in threshold states - those moments when you feel you’re neither here nor there, but somewhere in between. Poppy invites you to rest in what IS without pushing for clarity. It may be especially useful during transitions or endings.
I can’t go without mentioning the fact that in the U.S. at this time, the number one cause of death for those under 50 is opioid overdose. Everyone has been touched by this epidemic. For those who have struggled with opioid abuse or who have lost loved ones to it, this essence may offer gentle support for the layers of grief, numbness, and disorientation that can often remain. Poppy essence doesn’t replicate the dissociation of the drug; instead, it can help the body and psyche gently reconnect and soften around what’s been too painful to feel, and begin to release the imprints left behind. It may also be helpful in honoring the complexity of feelings tied to addiction, creating space to feel without judgment or overwhelm.
