No Open Circle gathering in September
While Ruth is traveling this month, you might want to check out posts from her substack. This one feels timely for the collective moment:

FE Live: Community Chat π¬
What's Your Flower Essence Story?
In this month's chat we shared our flower essence stories. The discussion prompts were:
π Who was your first β what was the first flower essence that you ever tried?
π€― Who blew your mind β what was the first essence that really clicked for you?
Thanks to all who joined and participated in the chat - and we thank you watching this in replay too :)
Live chats are hosted by Kathleen β 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.
In this episode, Kathleen and Rochana bring you an excerpt from their new course, Bach Flower Foundations, (we just started live sessions and you can still hop in and join us).
We share a segment from the module, Bach Flowers for Modern Life, where we springboard from Dr. Bachβs original insights on personality types to think in terms of the Bach flowers as archetypes representing personality βpartsβ and how they interact in relationships.
Itβs a fascinating discussion highlighting some of the most βactiveβ Bach flower archetypes and some corresponding βreactiveβ patterns, with examples that help us understand these personality parts better. Itβs a great way to envision some of the characteristics of the Bach flowers that we cover comprehensively in the course. β
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.

Reader, you may be wondering: What makes our Bach flower course different from all the others out there? Same old stuff There certainly are a lot of "courses" and information outside of the School for Flower Essence Studies that cover the Bach flowers. Many are just the same publicly available information that's been around for decades, often repeated, and now multiplying at lightening speed with books and courses being spit out by AI. How we're different We went beyond the conventional...
I used to think so Rochana here β and I have a confession to make. When I began working with flower essences, I wasn't attracted to the Bach remedies. How could I think this? My understanding of them was only pamphlet-level deep, and the language describing their use seemed a bit...boring and outdated. I was an herbalist doing shamanic plant journeys and focused on working with plants that were either medicinal or found in my surrounding ecosystem in Northern California. I considered taking a...
