The Legacy Lives in the Forest
From Mother and Daughter to Keeper and Student of the Forest
Hawaiian Rainforest Naturals was founded by Joy Johnson and her daughter, Melia Goodenow, who studied directly with Kahuna Lapaʻau Morrnah Simeona — the beloved teacher of modern Ho‘oponopono — and Papa Henry Awae of Hilo. Their teachings were clear: healing begins with relationship — to self, to land, to spirit.
“The forest embraced me,” says Melia. “It taught me how to listen — and how to make medicine that heals what words cannot.”

Medicine Made in Pono
- Ask Permission – Before harvesting, the healers enter prayer and ask each plant if it’s ready to share its medicine.
- Harvest with Gratitude – Blossoms are gathered only with affirmative permission.
- Infuse in Sunlight – Flowers float in pure water, capturing their energetic imprint.
- Dilute and Return – The infused water is preserved, and blossoms are returned to the earth in gratitude.
“When the plants say yes, their medicine carries the life force of the flowers,” Melia explains. “When we listen, nature always tells us how to heal.”

Where Science Meets Spirit
Flower essences aren’t about chemistry — they’re about vibration. Like tuning forks for the soul, each essence harmonizes the body’s subtle energy field, releasing emotional tension and restoring clarity.

How are flower essences different from essential oils?
Flower essences are vibrational remedies that work through energy and emotion — not scent or chemistry. They’re gentle, non-toxic, and safe for children and pets.
“You’ve tried the oils, the herbs, the therapies — but something deeper still calls for peace. That’s where the flowers begin to sing.”
From Stuck to Free
Each essence in HRN’s collection carries a specific emotional frequency. Letting Go supports release and forgiveness. Self Love helps you remember your worth. Relax calms the nervous system. They’re not perfumes — they’re prayers in liquid form. They capture the energetic patterns of fresh flower blossoms and bring those patterns into your energy system. Now you can bloom.
Can flower essences help with stress or anxiety?
Yes. HRN’s blends like Relax and Stress Release are formulated to soothe emotional overwhelm and promote calm through vibrational resonance with the flowers. When our energy is flowing at the level of peace, we can handle any situation with aloha for self and others.
"Your emotions determine the quality of your life," says Melia. "Our flower essences bring your emotions into Pono and harmony, then life begins to flow again."
The Land Is the Healer
Healing That Belongs to the Land
Every bottle of HRN flower essence begins with a relationship to the land. Created among the native plants and ʻŌhiʻa Lehua forests of Hawaiʻi Island, our essences are deeply connected to this living landscape — volcanic earth, abundant rain, and generations of Hawaiian plant wisdom. Each essence carries the mana of Hawai‘i — the life force that remembers balance.
“We don’t own this medicine. We care for it, so it can care for others.”
HRN’s connection to the Hawaiian rainforest ensures that every essence carries a unique energetic signature of the land — vibrant, grounded, and alive with mana.
