Welcome to Yogananda’s Spirit-in-Nature Essences™. These natural remedies stimulate spiritual qualities within our nature that in turn promote psychological and emotional healing. The essences are prepared using the elements of sunlight, pure spring water, and blossoms in their peak of bloom. They are completely safe for adults, children, infants, pets, and even plants.

Yogananda’s Spirit-in-Nature Essences™ are inspired by the teachings of the great Master Paramhansa Yogananda, author of the spiritual classic Autobiography of a Yogi.Yoganandaji explained that specific uplifting influences and energies are inherent in certain foods.

Swami Kriyananda, a direct disciple of Yoganandaji and founder of Ananda Sangha worldwide, commissioned Lila Devi to create these flower essences using the blossoms of the fruits and vegetables the Master listed.

Since 1977, the essences have gained worldwide recognition and acclaim. They are rapidly finding their way into homes in Yoganandaji's native country, India.

“For quite some time, I was feeling that my memory was diminishing gradually. I couldn’t concentrate on my studies. I was really worried and did not know what to do as it was affecting my performance at school, too. Then, one day I read about Yogananda’s Essences on a website. So, I thought to give it a try and took Avocado. The result was amazing. Avocado had not only helped me immensely, but also revitalised my memory. Now, I take Avocado regularly for my strong memory and good performance." —Rishab, student (IX) in Delhi
