Course Description
This foundational course in flower essences will give you the basic knowledge needed to start self healing and using flower essences. You will learn the history of the remedies, all about the Bach Remedies, how to make your own essences and how to work with them, about plant consciousness and journeying in addition to the legal requirements of becoming a practitioner, how to use essences with animals, plus much more! This course is especially for those who are interested in subtle energy healing and health. Flower essences are wonderful transformational tools which produce astounding results in all our bodies (mental, physical, emotional and spiritual). If you are not familiar with flower essences (or even if you have studied previously) this self paced course will give you the foundation needed to start using essences yourself and eventually move into practitioner status when you're ready.
Course Requirements
You will be asked to make at least one bottle of flower essences in this course. You will be given specific directions on how to do this and it's quite easy. This is a wonderful experience and you will be delighted to see your own work, effort and love produced!
Please either buy or recycle a small glass jar with top. Additionally you may want to purchase an amber or cobalt bottle with a dropper top. You will need to have access to at least one herb, flower or plant. These cannot come from a florist as they will be laden with chemicals for long preservation. You may drive out to the countryside and pick your flowers, herbs or plants (with permission). If you live in the city perhaps you're lucky enough to have some beautiful plants in your own back yard!
