I am taking a class at WWU and found you looking for cleaver seed information(?). From there I wondered to this great post! <br />I wanted to thank you for your lovely post, as I too have aspired to Bach's works(and my own) and needed some community there(aka, common interest sharing)! I have had experience with the Bach (FERR) with a similar route to your's. I am in awe of my local naturals and I am learning of my local pals; dandelion, clover, purnella, honey suckle and cleavers which abound and are my specialities, if you will. It is wonderful to see the wonders and find your wonderful works as well! Thank you for sharing this and your wonderful photos too. I am interested in honey suckle and prunella energies. I know a little and study at length. I basically am looking for more on that and to find community there. Mine is a diverse place, but lovely.<br /><br />Again, thank you for sharing all of your great works and inspirations! :D<br /><br />Much gratitude,<br />Allison D of Kelso, WA US :DAllisonianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15142083282210958697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3765060233389739578.post-25201578976438614972011-07-17T17:30:15.618-07:002011-07-17T17:30:15.618-07:00Thanks for your post.

I've found Rescue Remedy very helpful in the past - particularly the night time one, which very much knocked me out when I was having an insomniac phase. It took a lot of effort to wake up after the full dose!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14543331768038360856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3765060233389739578.post-64935477264026614252011-05-23T14:24:28.355-07:002011-05-23T14:24:28.355-07:00I was delighted to discover the Bach flower essenc...I was delighted to discover the Bach flower essences as their usage was very in tune with my own thinking i.e. heal the source of the problem, often from an emotional origin.

When we did the group meditation with impatiens, the book meaning always gives "to promote patience", but the plant told us it was so often overlooked and wanted us to know about the deep love and affection it had to offer" - a very different message!Sarah Headhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08975928642943693605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3765060233389739578.post-84094535632098145392011-05-23T12:24:19.434-07:002011-05-23T12:24:19.434-07:00Hi Sarah,

I have some growing this year for the first time so would like to make an essence with them if it feels right.<br />I was interested by your experience with marshmallow too, another one to try out!<br />Take care and thanks for hosting the party,<br />Lucinda xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3765060233389739578.post-55309320610916881112011-05-23T05:46:29.870-07:002011-05-23T05:46:29.870-07:00Thank you for a beautiful post.

Well I never - on our evening walk last night we had stopped to comment on some lovely blossoms - are you Yarrow?

I especially loved hearing how your own relationship with flower essences evolved over the years, and which plants you have found allies in at different times in your life. Thank you also for reminding me about how fantastic yarrow is! I have used it in the past, but had forgotten how helpful it was for maintaining boundaries - something I think most any healer requires support with at different times. I also loved the suggestions for using the essences in baths or massage oils - I have never thought to do that before, and must try that out immediately!<br />Thanks again for a wonderful blog party!!<br />DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3765060233389739578.post-11064482241436356672011-05-23T04:35:57.373-07:002011-05-23T04:35:57.373-07:00Fantastic post sarah, Thankyou for sharing your wi...Fantastic post sarah, Thankyou for sharing your wisdom and always aiding my evergrowing knowledge.
