  • Honouring your natural design and the cycles of nature. Periodically returning to a natural state of rest, by default.
  • Spiritual progress is not achieved through ( internal, ego-driven ) pressure. ‘Fruit naturally ripens’.

  • Casual. Adopting a more relaxed approach to life and being light-of-heart.

  • Looking for stress in any area of life affects the mind/body system. Removing from your life tension that is unsustainable, inefficient and weakens you.
  • Approaching life from a relaxed position, by default. Able to respond to problems as they arise instead of being stress-depleted before you even begin.

Negative – Serious ( Intense Focus ), Important ( Emotional Emphasis ).

Practitioner Notes ( Doctrine of Signatures )

The Pineapple is the most widely recognized of the Bromeliads because of its commercial value as a food crop. The name ‘Ananus’ is derived from the South American Indian word ‘na’, ‘na’. Which means the ‘sweet fragrance’ given off when the pineapples are ripe.

At one stage in history, the Pineapple was known as ‘the King of Fruits’ and cost ‘a kings ransom’ to hire ( yes, hire, not eat ) for dinner parties. This gesture of showing off ones wealth to honour guests became a symbol of welcoming.

As a food crop, Pineapples take 18 months to fruit. A whole year-and-a-half is a long time, indicating that its general properties revolve around patience, ‘slow progress’ and living life at a relaxed pace. In fact, these key signatures provide the best clue about how to approach life, the life process and spiritual development as a whole.

“You will ripen in your own sweet time”… ‘so don’t even try to rush the creative or process of your self development’.

  • You cannot make yourself ripen or achieve enlightenment, etc.
  • You can only participate in a slow ripening and fruition. This allows you to enjoy the many life experiences you have along the way!
  • Life moves at the pace of life. Spiritual unfoldment moves at the same gradual pace.

Medicinally, the Pineapple is well known for its anti-inflammatory, muscle-relaxing properties. Commercial medicine made from Pineapple can be purchased at any chemist under the name of ‘Bromelain’, a compound which is derived from the stem of the fruit. This widespread use is testimony to the highly medicinal value of Pineapple as a remedy for stress-related issues.

While the muscles are the target of such medicine, vibrational remedies made from Pineapple reduce stress from the inside. Such as mental tension ( seriousness, importance ) and emotional emphasis ( sustained pressure ) that mirrors in the mind/body system as muscular tension, etc.

In vibrational medicine, the Pineapple makes an amazing flower remedy because of these stress-reducing properties. They lift ‘whole layers-of-stress’ up and out of the system, not just individual ‘issues’.

  • The Pineapple is a ‘general tonic’ and is commonly used in combination flower remedies.
  • The Pineapple is one of the 3 ‘rescue flowers’. The Pineapple, Queens Tears & the flower of Calm are great in crisis situations.

Kinesiology

Kinesiologists can use the 3 Pineapples in the Skyflowers range as a barometer to indicate stress levels. Each Pineapple deals with an increase in stress and the problems that arise from increasing pressure in the mind/body system.

  1. The Pineapple deals with stage 1 or ‘temporary stress’ and is used for common, day-to-day issues. It signals a need to take rest breaks during the day and adopt this as a regular habit.
  2. Pygmy Pineapple is indicated for stage 2 stress & when pressure is rising toward boiling point. It signals a need to decompress multiple issues and unwind before problems mount up.
  3. Dwarf Pink Pineapple is for stage 3 stress & the system-wide breakdown ( dis-ease) that is beginning to manifest because of long-term stress and pressure. Illness is natures way of attempting to release pressure ( mental attitude ) by forcing you to slow down, change your ways and return to a natural, less dogmatic approach to life.

The Pineapple will be covered in depth in the Skyflowers: Clinical Manuals.

Homework

  • Prescribed Rest, as part of your daily routine.
  • ‘Prescribed Rest’ is the practice of taking regular rest breaks. It is the discipline of ‘returning to a mental & physical rest state’ before tending to new tasks. This takes practice. Breaks in thinking ( mental focus ) are key.
  • When the Pineapple is indicated, it signals that stress has built up in the mind-body system and the pressure needs to be released. Stress reduction has become the priority and is the way for moving forward. I.e. Pushing or forcing things is counter-productive.
  • If you lead a busy lifestyle, break up your day with a variety of smaller tasks. ‘Rest’ does not means to take an hour-long siesta after every task. It means to ‘rest your thought process so that it does not tire’. Fresh energy comes from passive awareness and new lines of thought.
  • Holidays and long periods of vacation are beneficial but can indicate inefficiencies in your overall lifestyle. Create a lifestyle with smaller, regular rest periods each day instead of leaving it until the weekend to rest or taking holidays because you are exhausted or burnt out.
