FE Live: Community Chat 💬

Strategies for Managing Overwhelm

In this month's live community chat, we had a great discussion on the essences and strategies we're relying on to stabilize the nervous system, calm the mind, strengthen our boundaries, and stay grounded during trying times.

Live chats are hosted by Kathleen — usually on the 2nd Wednesday of each month. We offer this to our community as a chance to interact with each other on flower essence topics of interest. These events are recorded and posted on YouTube.

The Flower Essence Podcast 🔊

FEP73 Expanding Your Understanding of the Bach Flowers

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.

With guest Ruth Toledo Altschuler, 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, as modern practitioners we have further evolved the way we use and talk about these essences 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.

​

The Flower Essence Podcast is hosted by Rochana and Kathleen, and is available in all the places you listen to podcasts. You can also watch the recording on YouTube, and read show notes on the podcast website.
