Kathleen Aspenns and Rochana Felde are joined by Ruth Toledo Altschuler to embrace the energy of creativity as a lifeline that sustains us with aliveness during challenging times.

We discuss:

• How flower essences and gem elixirs can be used to spark and nourish creativity whether or not we think we’re creative

• How the creative process itself can be liberating and an integral part of healing because it's connected to the vital life force within us

• How using art, writing, and creative acts as therapeutic tools in conjunction with Flower Essence Therapy can be synergistic for both processes

And we honor the creative energy of Spring bursting forth in the Northern Hemisphere. Happy Equinox!

In this episode Kathleen and Rochana dive into the current energy of overwhelm that so many are feeling.

We bring in our favorite tried and true flower essences and gem elixirs for not only managing the onslaught, but also strengthening our fields and building resilience. Whether the overwhelm comes from too much information, energy, emotions, sensory signals, environmental factors, or all of the above, Nature helps bring us back into balance.

In this episode, Kathleen and Rochana welcome back our partner in the School for Flower Essence Studies, Ruth Toledo Altschuler.

During these times of progressive overwhelm, we believe that Nature is here for us, and we have the capacity to take in new information when we attune to the plants. In light of this, we’re excited to embark on a deep exploration of nine more Bach Flowers in our upcoming study group, which is more like an “experience group”.

We discuss the value of having a solid foundation of lineage teachings to build on — in this case, Dr. Edward Bach’s original discoveries which have been much enhanced by Julian Barnard’s lifetime contributions in this field.

Now, we as modern practitioners have further evolved the way we use and talk about the Bach flowers in our practices. Bach flowers are well combined with the concept of parts work (Internal Family Systems) and other contemporary ways of addressing emotional challenges, affirming that they’re more relevant than ever.

🌸

​Bach Flowers in Contemporary Practice​ is our in-depth Bach flower essence study group in which we slow down to learn directly from the plants and the people who have long been using these essences with clients. You’re invited to join our upcoming iteration beginning February 20th, 2025. This is Part Three of a series, but can be taken in any order!

Be sure to register by February 7th to save $30!
