A flower alchemy session starts looking at the wisdom of a specific flower, yesterday we worked with the Daisy. The flower helps us to sense the fuller, healed, unified version of self, acting like little gathering systems, as we come into a co-creational relationship with the flower, we enable a stronger relationship to our point of origin, our soul or united self. The prime wisdom of the Daisy is one of humility, joy and coherence, the white petals act as a gathering system for its golden spiral centre. The profound center of a daisy is a prime example of nature using mathematics for efficiency, with individual tiny florets arranged in interlocking spirals that correspond to Fibonacci numbers. The Milky Way, as do other spiral galaxies possess arms that resemble the Fibonacci spiral structure as do tornados, pine cones, sea shells and the DNA molecule within our cellls. The twists in a spiral shape, efficiently packs and organizes life in the simplest possible way. Math being nature’s quiet architect. As the Fibonacci spiral shows us the tiniest flower and the vastness of the universe are mirrors for each other. As above so below, as within so without, reminding us that the universe and a flower share the same geometry. The universe is patterned and ordered beautifully. We align through subtle movement, visualisation, journalling and breath to the flower, becoming receptive to the patterns within us and the wisdom the daisy is offering us……. Next session we are working with the wisom of Honeysuckle, I will share its wisdom in a couple of weeks!!

In January I started to deliver a course I call ‘Floral Alchemy’, we follow the wisdom and guidance that can be found in flowers through subtle breath, movement and journalling. The flower shows us its still and powerful centre point and expresses its pure essence in accordance to harmonic natural order. The aim is to call all parts of ourselves back into coherence, parts that we may have forgotten or left behind, to integrate and embody these parts within. This process creates a stronger lifeforce, peace and coherence within us, the flower being the perfect symbol of coherence radiating light, fragrance and geometry. Last Friday we worked with Tulip…. The Tulip resembling a cup or holy grail, reminds us true wisdom is held within. So the question that resounds is how may I receive more of who I truly am? Tulip asks us what we would like to receive? What wants to overflow within us?

Come rain or shine, I’m running a Forest bathing session on Wednesday 26th November at Franks wood in Colerne 10-11am. It’s part of @wildcolerne and @nationaltreeweek . This annual event marks the start of tree planting season, so if anyone knows of good places to plant Oak trees… do let me know!! Wednesday morning will involve breathing and tuning into our senses and the sounds around us. It’s completely free… so do come along! 😉💚 🌳

Thank you to the 8 pairs of beautiful feet that came to tune into their tap roots last Saturday, through conscious breath, ‘chi’ based movement and subtle (or not so subtle) energy to the mighty Dandelion…. What a flower 🌼🌞💛 indeed it is a lion!! Thank you @crystalherbs.essences for your wonderful Dandelion essence 🙏🏼 : : #subtleenergy #plantessences #floweressences #colerne #dayretreat #drbachremedies #sacredgeometry #subtleenergy #flowerhealing #vibrationalmedicine #floweressencetherapy 🤍

The Dandelion: We will be immersing ourselves in the wisdom of the Dandelion this Saturday…. It’s Doctrine of Signatures or gestures and what messages and medicine it can have for us…. Observing its structure and how we can use the plant as a template for concious breathwork and movement. All for building our ‘chi’, energy and lifeforce. This Saturday’s Repose session was originally advertised as Blackthorn, but the Dandelions are singing too loudly to dismiss! 😂 This Saturday is full, but the Bluebell is coming soon…. : #subtleenergy #plantessences #floweressences #colerne #dayretreat #drbachremedies #sacredgeometry #primroseessence #subtleenergy #flowerhealing #vibrationalmedicine #floweressencetherapy 🤍

. Primrose Repose Ceremony 🌼 I always aim to take photos of everyone, but it feels too intrusive!! So you will have to believe me when I say there was a beautiful bunch of humans who came to share an immersion into all things Primrose, through breathwork, sound, relaxation and taking the Primrose Dew drop 💧🌼💧 So you get a rare photo of me instead 🫣😂 Next Repose Flower Ceremony: 13th April 😉 : #peartreestudios #plantessences #floweressences #colerne #dayretreat #drbachremedies #sacredgeometry #primroseessence #subtleenergy #flowerhealing #vibrationalmedicine #floweressencetherapy

. The Primrose opens wide in Spring Her scent of every happy thing In sunny lane and wood I have not half the skill to sing And praise her as I should She’s dear to folk throughout the land She freely spreads on every hand Her petals pale and clean And though she’s neither proud nor grand She is the county queen of spring #cicelymarybarker 🌼💛🌼 #subtleenergy #plantessences #floweressences #colerne #dayretreat #drbachremedies #sacredgeometry #primroseessence #flowerfairies

. The Gesture or Doctrine of a signatures: This is where the characteristics of the flower/plant show how it can help similar aspects in ourselves. The Primrose has a sensitivity about her, The stem is covered with fine hairs which shows how the Primrose is receptive and sensitive…. Her roots are entwined and woven to form a closely dense community. She likes shade or plenty of moisture or she wilts and fades in harsh sun. As an essence: Primrose is indicated when feeling low, crushed or repressed. The Primrose essence helps us feel refreshed with a lighter approach to life. 🌼✨💛 The primrose can be male or female!! I choose to use her 😂 : Primrose Repose this coming Saturday 23rd March 9.30-11am…. : #subtleenergy #plantessences #floweressences #colerne #dayretreat #drbachremedies #sacredgeometry #primroseessence

So this week I am tuning into Primrose essence to see what this flower brings! Already it feels lighter and more sensitive than the Daffodil 🌼 Primroses are also believed to have healing properties, and have been used in traditional medicine to treat a variety of ailments, including headaches, anxiety, and insomnia. Primrose flowers have been a favorite motif in literature and art for centuries. In poetry, they often represent the fleeting beauty and fragility of life, as well as the purity and innocence of youth. Authors like William Wordsworth and William Shakespeare often use primrose flowers as symbols of beauty, grace, and serenity in their works. : #subtleenergy #plantessences #floweressences #colerne #dayretreat #drbachremedies #peartreestudios #daffodilessence #sacredgeometry #primroseessence

. ‘Flowers remind us to return to our own unique inner essence’ 🌼 : I love these grids, hopefully this will be the last of the Daffodils! Happy Friday to you all 💛 #subtleenergy #plantessences #floweressences #colerne #dayretreat #drbachremedies #peartreestudios #daffodilessence #sacredgeometry
