The mere presence of flowers in a bouquet or adorning a garden walk can change the energy of people and places. The arena of plant consciousness is gaining widespread attention as science begins to recognize what shamans have known for millennia: plants are intelligent beings with heart, soul, and spirit that have profound healing abilities.
The fragrance, color, beauty, and essence of flowers open ancient doorways by awakening memories of when we lived in accordance with our own true nature. Join us as we focus on the flowers whose vibratory imprints carry patterns that enable deep healing to occur on physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels.
This informative and inspiring retreat will be chock full of classes on flower essences, medicinal flowers, and plant spirits. We will explore their multiple uses both personally and in a healing practice. As we delve into healing at a source level, our co-creative relationship with nature emerges as a primary and necessary ingredient.
Jane Bell of Alaskan Flower Essence Project will be our special guest. She has been a Flower Essence practitioner, educator, and researcher for 22 years, and she is a pioneer in the field of Energetic Architecture. She has a highly developed capacity for seeing into the heart of nature and teaching others to open to the love, support, healing, and wisdom of the natural world. Her keynote address will focus on co-creation as an evolutionary imperative, and she will teach a class on the flower essences of Bali and Alaska and an intensive on attuning with nature as a way of life.
