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 discuss what it's like on the business side of being a Flower Essence Practitioner. We share our stories and some of the common challenges when setting out on your own as a service entrepreneur (hello imposter syndrome, overwhelm, and undervaluing!), and offer some helpful essence ideas for working through them.

We've found that participating in masterminds, group coaching/mentoring, and community forums are incredibly helpful to this process. The value of hearing from your peers, their struggles and questions, learning how they solve them, and the wisdom that evolves from the group mind, cannot be underestimated.

 

NEW! Announcing the Professional Practice Mentoring Group launching at the School for Flower Essence Studies. It's a unique online community space with live group coaching meetings, beginning May 1st. We're piloting it for 6 months, and we'd love for you to be part of it!

Kathleen and Rochana address misconceptions about flower essences and how they work. Get answers to these common questions and concerns: 

• Will they take away my stress? 

• Are higher doses more powerful?

• How long will it take them to “work”?

• Why does an essence stop working? 

• Can they help me endure an intolerable situation? 

• Why can’t they fix all my problems at once? 

• Can I take an essence if I’m allergic to the plant?

Misinformation, Disinformation, Propaganda, Artificial Intelligence, Deep Fakes, Brainwashing, Phishing, Spam, Scammers, PsyOps, Cults, and sleazy Marketing, oh my!

There’s a war at play for our attention, our thoughts, our beliefs, and of course our money – whether it's just an advertisement to buy a product or something more complex with higher stakes. 

It’s crucial now more than ever to cultivate skills of discernment, to be able to listen to that voice inside that raises a flag on what we see and hear. Yet, the daily practice of this can breed skepticism and distrust that may block the flow of life energy. 

How can flower essences help us with this practice in a healthy way, so we can navigate and survive these times?

Meet Australian Flower Essence Practitioner Tracy O'Meara Smith! 

Tracy combines Flower Essence Therapy with a gentle and holistic form of bodywork (Bowen Therapy), and through this integration guides clients through periods of profound inner transformation, crisis, and pain. She empowers individuals to trust their intuition, act on newfound insights, and discover effective ways to cope, live, and ultimately be.

Well-versed in the Australian essences, Tracy was recently certified by the Flower Essence Essence Society through the online Practitioner Certification Training Program taught by Ruth Toledo Altschuler.  

Our conversation spans her profoundly connective experience of participating in an Aboriginal flower pit ceremony, how the FES training up-leveled her understanding of flower essence therapy, and the deep integration that bodywork brings to the process.

Ever wonder how we got from Dr. Bach’s research to where we are today? In the late 1970s and 80s there was a simultaneous explosion of new flower essences being discovered, researched, and produced around the world. Yet, this “second wave” of producers didn’t initially know about one another until the first international conference was held.

Ruth Toledo Altschuler came on the scene just as these gatherings began to happen, and she became a major importer of essences into Brazil at that time. In this episode, we have the honor of hearing her stories and adventures — how she met the people and visited the places of the FES, Alaskan, Australian essences, and more, in these early days of the post-Bach flower essence renaissance.  

Join us for this rare treat and glimpse into the modern history of flower essences.

We went to the movies! And saw Barbie! This was a rare treat for us, as we live on opposite sides of the county. We laughed so hard, then had a great chat about it during lunch, and we knew right away we wanted to discuss some of the themes in our next podcast.

We address some typical challenges experienced by those of us not at the top of the patriarchy:

• constant feelings of not being enough and having to work twice as hard to get less

• feeling obligated to do more for others than for ourselves and letting our self care suffer

• being too "nice" and putting on a happy mask to appease those with more power

We talk about essences for these states and to boost a general feeling of empowerment.

There's no spoilers except for a certain kick-ass monologue that we just had to repeat. But if you haven't seen the movie, go take some self-care time and do it!
