This essence relaxes you while at the same time enhancing your memory and concentration. It helps you to get a clear view of yourself, you'll feel more alert and attentive.
Alert helps you feel safe and warm. It enhances friendship and is a sort of higher guidance and protection. You can learn from the experience of others and then take the next few steps on your own. It helps you stay close to yourself while growing and also helps you to look at things from different angles.
To me, this essence reminds me of a big cat, lying somewhere high up in a tree, surveying all she sees. Appearing extremely relaxed while at the same time noticing everything that goes on.
