So Yeah, one of the things that we've been talking about and I know your Clients and as a loyal client of yours as well are really looking into Productivity and creativity creative thinking and all of that and At the same time We have all become so aware of How divided our attention is and how overwhelmed we feel on the day-to-day life And Also, so many of us are going through change change all the time coming our way whether we want it or not We are being challenged to change to adapt to adjust So I Want to share with you guys With you all a story of why is it? that plant and plant intelligence can help us move through change and Readjust and reintegrate and become more creative as We deal with the challenges of life that are always coming anyway So what I'm going to do is I'm going to share a presentation with you and it's going to be a little story It's going to be a story of us and a story of our Unity with the world of which we are part in This life in this incarnation and a story of the web of life One in which everything is integrated Into a very well articulated hole and There's a timeline to this story and I'm going to go into just a little bit of an overview here Let's say that life on earth began 3.6 billion years ago, but there's four very strong moments that have to do with how Human life became possible in the planet 3.4 billion years ago the first kind of bacteria within the waters began performing photosynthesis and Then 400 million years ago the first primitive plants Went up into solid ground 445 million years ago the first land plants began putting down roots and That's what began making the ozone layer in Existence a lot later 130 million years ago. There was an enormous evolutionary leap Flowers flowering plants came into existence and 200 Thousand years ago only that's how recent we are an atomically modern humans came into existence So when flowering plants began existing it was like an explosion and They began interacting with their pollinators and all these different beings came into existence and the multiplication of plants as a result of the existence of flowers and the complex forms that evolved from there and all the nutrition that became available is What made possible? life of humans on earth So Yeah, we are part of this amazing unity much more than we usually think about The air we breathe all The food we eat even the animal sourced food comes from plants and in fact Plants are our elders. We descend from plants and And flowering plants are our very important ancestors Now in a special way, I believe and you will understand that Plants really help us remember and I mean remember in terms of becoming members Becoming part of this whole now then what are flower essences and What are they not? I Tell you that flower essences are information Differently from essential oils that have aroma and that are made from a lot of plant substance Flower essences are prepared in the peak moment of flowering When the plant reaches that Apex It's almost like it's shining. It's radiating and then flowers are picked and Placed on the surface of a bowl And they sit under the Sun for a number of hours and the information the evolutionary information of that plant That is so Amazingly contained in the flower because the flower is that moment that the plant is Recreating its new generation. So all that it has learned through all its evolutionary journeys All its adaptation all of that is imprinted as Information in that water So flower essences are highly diluted Vibrational preparations they don't take a lot of plant substance to be prepared and You have the mother essence and then you have The first dilution and then you have the second dilution that is the essence that we use and They can be prepared either as an internal use Dilution just these drops or They can be prepared as a spray in a misting bottle and I want to give you a gift of Some essences that you can use immediately for your own Creative thinking So can you think of days when Everything is happening at the same time and you're going through a lot of demands and people are calling in the phone It's ringing and an email is arriving and it's almost like you're being divided into many little pieces Your attention being called everywhere Would you like to at the same time that all of this is happening? Would you like to stay centered? Have that quiet peaceful Center within yourself Well, that's One of the special gifts of the Indian pink flower essence. So despite it being all red and all cut into little indentations It has this calm center within All flower essences come kind of in that way You don't really have to read it, but they have the patterns of imbalance and the positive qualities and So here we're talking about being fragmented by too much movement overwhelm and The ability to remain centered and focused even under stress or high levels of activity so What if you really need to stay more focused Now here's the major and look at this plant. It's almost like it's directing you to its center But there's one more thing that it does in its adaptive intelligence It begins opening up in the morning sun and then when it becomes very hot and too fiery outside The flowers begin closing down Almost as if they're concentrating their energy and They're kind of focusing themselves inwards like this and Then later in the day They will open up again In that beautiful star So that is an amazing essence for focus for the ability to concentrate Now we have another one and Let's think of all these different multiple tasks that you have ahead We solopreneurs are really dealing with that all the time. We have our marketing. We have our offerings We have the clients. We have the calendar And sometimes it's difficult to find what is the priority now and How to organize this whole and how to divide our attention correctly into the parts? Well, that's one thing that this rabbit brush really helps and I'll give you just two more Because these you can actually go to the store and buy them and use them yourself So the Shasta daisy is Actually a plant that was developed by a genius Who knew how to interbreed plants to create special varieties and He created a daisy that is a synthesis of many different daisies He took 19 years Developing this plant until he was able to come to a daisy that was perfectly white and Perfectly balanced Now this as an essence really helps us with Integrated thinking it helps us see all the parts And see them within the context of an integrated whole It's very helpful for Managing for organization for synthesis for writing and More and just the last one to top it off. This is my very favorite It is named after the goddess Iris and Iris was a mediator between the gods and humans and as a flower essence it is amazing in how it helps us with creativity inspiration the ability to Generate our most inspired offerings Inspired writing Okay, so I'll leave you with that Hmm, and I will answer some questions from George if he has any Wow, that was beautiful you know what what kind of Sadat to me was how gentle the flowers are and Yet how much power they have To affect us and then perhaps most powerful effects start with the most subtlest You know Source, you know and so one question that that I have that others might have as well as How do you work with your clients? With with this so you you are flower essence practitioner flower essence therapist And you mentor others in this work as well. How does it work? I mean, yes, you've given us some myself recipes or or ideas that we could get flower essences from a holistic store and You know we have them but now how does it really work? Right well, I'm going to tell you like One story that maybe you can relate and that is related to one Process for instance that I'm beginning to offer as kind of a package and I call it leadership stature and this one This process is one that meets a person that is really ready to stand out in the world and to really Build more of a presence and to step out into their leadership and yet They feel that there are some Almost like Really old-time blockages perhaps from their childhood, you know, perhaps parts within themselves that keep saying oh You're not really all that you know those voices that we have in our minds At the same time when they go out to do public speaking perhaps They would like to have more radiance perhaps they would like to shine more So the work that I offer is kind of a step-by-step Ongoing work, but we don't meet very often we meet just perhaps once or twice once Every month or every two months and I prepare the essences But we also talk about These very deep patterns that they want to change and we address these patterns with the essences and we also Bring the essences that are going to help them develop this bigger presence this kind of shining Charisma that can help them come out with enthusiasm to share their gifts with the world So that's one possible way that I can help You and others Another way is also one process that I'm calling the inner marriage That helps you become aware of What is happening within you in terms of the inner woman the inner man and the relationship between the two and How these may have been affected by what you experienced in your life What you saw when you were growing up and why is it that these Situations keep repeating themselves in your relationships and you as much as you want you're not Manifesting the kind of relationship that you yearn for and so we go through a process of deep healing but especially working on these inner archetypes of masculine and feminine and of the partnership of both Also working on inner child issues And eventually as this becomes healthy and whole and transformed a Relationship manifests that is More of a reflection of the changes that you've made within So those are a couple of Examples of processes that I've really helped a lot of people over the years with and That I freely worked with and used for myself. So there's a lot of my own experience in this that I bring Anymore questions. Yeah, it's really that's very helpful to see some of the issues that you help clients with and you of course Given that fluorescence therapy helps with both Creative of the mind to the the heart of the healing of emotions and then spiritual growth There's other things that can come up that can be healed as well Through the work. So if somebody is interested in working with you, what do you recommend? Is there something they need to do first or what's what's the next step to doing that? Yeah, well, I Fortunately as a result of using all these essences and doing creative thinking I have a Website that is very complete. People can navigate. There's a scheduling page. There's a 30-minute free initial Interview session that people can sign up for and just you know find out to find a good match if they like the way I work and the possibilities I have to offer them and And That's a good way to begin and they can read a lot more about the essences in my webpages another way that I strongly suggest people Connect with me is through my Instagram page Because every week there are some plans and their messages. So they a lot of Clients and non-clients say that they feel a lot of healing from Looking at my images and reading the text.

There's a Facebook page as well I'll be sure to link those in the notes of the video Anything any other message you want to share with us as we complete this conversation? Yes, absolutely Of course the entry point for most of my clients is People going through change because plants know so much about change They've had to adapt to change of all kinds over the ages And so many people go through major change like a death of a loved one a separation a divorce a Relocation a change in jobs sometimes it's an upgrade or sometimes they've been fired They have to reinvent themselves, but that big transition is just so shattering in so many ways and so if you're going through any kind of Major change and if you have a friend who has been impacted by a shattering change or a good change in their lives, but they really need that wisdom to adjust to adapt to take to kind of Smooth the edges off the process that is one of the reasons why most clients get referred to me They usually don't know about it, but people say you have to go talk to Ruth I don't I can't really explain why but go And they're really grateful because I have a very special ability to truly listen and Match their needs with the qualities of the power Yes, absolutely, and I can vouch for that and so can the many clients that who have worked with you You've got reviews on your Facebook business page for sure people should check that out, too We thank you so much for bringing this beautiful presentation To my audience.
