The final chapter of Bach Flowers in Contemporary Practice is here! 🏡️


Bright flower greetings, Reader,

We're excited to announce the final installment of our beloved Bach flower "study group" that is so much more.

Bach Flowers in Contemporary Practice Part Four is an in-depth exploration of the last eight essences in the series: Holly, Pine, Clematis, Honeysuckle, Elm, Hornbeam, Water Violet, and Olive.

If you've joined us for any of the earlier parts, you know how this works. Kathleen and Ruth teach through live, unscripted discussion, visual plant immersion, and real client and animal cases drawn from decades of combined practice. We devote an entire hour to each essence, with a spaciousness that allows for real, ongoing discovery.

Remedies that look nearly identical on paper have, more than once, turned out to be worlds apart in practice. Sessions regularly turn into a live, collaborative sorting-out of exactly where one ends and the other begins, the kind of nuance you don't get from written descriptions. Past participants have described it as receiving the essence simply by being in the conversation.

clematis flowers

Dear Reader, You may already know Holly. You may have reached for Pine dozens of times. Clematis and Honeysuckle may have been sitting in your kit for years. So why spend two hours with each pair? Because one of the things we’ve learned from decades of working with flower essences is that familiarity can sometimes hide as much as it reveals. We learn the indications. We recognize the patterns. We develop our shorthand. And then a plant, a client, or a conversation shows us something we hadn’t...
