What are Flower Essences? And what is unique about them?

My motivation: why I am offering this

In this Mini Course, my intention is to inspire you to think of combinations as an art and a science, one that will become second nature to you, the more you practice it.

Having taught dozens of classes on Flower Essences and Flower Essence Therapy, I know the questions that are so often asked and the answers that can bring calm and clarity.

This class draws from the experience of my own Flower Essence Therapy Practice and from the experience of my many busy Brazilian Colleague who have shared their conclusions with me  
In Brazil, Flower Essence Therapy has been very popular for the last 3 and a half decades. My own practice, that started there in 1989 has always been very busy. And many of my colleagues twho continue practicing in Brazil have been working with many clients for decades. 

As colleagues, we have often discussed the conclusions we arrived in relation to the ways we put together our combinations as a result of the experience we have gathered in our own Practices. Much of what I have to share here comes as a result of our combined experience of more than 3 decades.

A Testimonial on Ruth Toledo Altschuler's experience in creating Essence Combinations

"Ruth has profound knowledge of the instruments she has been using for more than 30 years and assembles formulas like someone composing a painting or a poem: it is truly a work of art. By watching her compose a formula, a Flower Essence Practitioner will continuously learn, by seeing her combine essences by affinities based on eco-systems, botanical families, color and gesture, and not only by the indications for each essence. The way a formula is put together is never obvious. These are unusual combinations!"
