Join herbalist, homeopath, and flower essences practitioner Debra Bluth for an introduction to flower essence workshop.

Flower essences are energetic remedies made from the blossoms of living plants, potentized by the sun or moon, and created with intention and ceremony. Taken orally, these essences work on a vibrational level to support emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. Each essence carries a unique energetic imprint, guiding the body and mind toward greater balance and healing.

In this immersive workshop, you'll explore the foundations of flower essences, including their history, uses, and the subtle yet profound shifts they can facilitate. A significant portion of the day will be spent outdoors, where each participant will have the opportunity to create their own flower essence.

Prerequisite: Participants must have attended at least one of Debra’s Medicinal Plant Walks or have prior approval from the instructor.

Ages: 18+
