BFVEA (British Flower & Vibrational Essences Association)

For anyone who wasn’t able to attend Sue Lily’s essence‑making course on Tuesday, there will be a repeat session on Saturday, 30th May. This is a rare opportunity to learn directly from one of the true pioneers of our field.

Sue was a founder Member of the BFVEA and served as Chair for many years before going on to establish and lead BAFEP until her recent retirement. Her depth of knowledge, clarity of teaching, and lifelong dedication to essences make this a not‑to‑be‑missed experience.

Whether you’re just beginning your journey or already an experienced practitioner, you will come away inspired and enriched.

This year’s Gathering marked the official launch of Beaver Press Ltd. With the number of small publishers declining, many aspiring authors have turned to self‑publishing — an option that is often costly and, sadly, rarely rewarding. The typical income from a self‑published book is just £200.
Yet everyone does have a book in them. And when you decide to write yours, Beaver Press will not only help you bring it to life, but also ensure it reaches the world in a meaningful and professional way.

At the Gathering, Susan Lupetti introduced a wonderful new resource for BFVEA Members - the Talk Pack. Created by Mandy Storey and the marketing team, this ready to use toolkit offers a clear, well structured framework to help you introduce flower and vibrational essences to a wide range of audiences, from community groups and wellbeing events to more informal local gatherings. You can find it in the Members’ section of the website, and it is highly recommended for anyone wishing to share information about flower and vibrational essences within their community but would appreciate a little extra support and confidence to do so.

What a gentle, soul soothing afternoon we shared in Glastonbury. First came the contrast of the springs: the White Spring with echoing chambers and dark mystery; the Red Spring, gently appearing and disappearing through the Chalice Well gardens. Here early flowers opened to enjoy the sunshine, the Yew Trees surrounded us with ancient protective energies whilst the Cherry Plum, in full bloom, reminded us, with joyful insistence, that the essence making season had already begun

'.... I just wanted to say a huge thank you for such a wonderful gathering. I really can’t express how grateful I am for all your hard work and to all the wonderful speakers and participants. You were all so welcoming I didn’t feel a newbie even though I was! I am so glad I took the plunge and tried something out of my comfort zone....!' L.J.W.

Have you ever wanted to give a talk on flower essences or introduce the BFVEA, but weren’t quite sure how to begin? On Sunday morning, Susan Lupetti will be sharing the BFVEA Marketing Group’s 'Talk Pack' - a rich collection of ideas, guidance, and practical tips to help you shape a confident, engaging presentation.

This supportive session is designed to spark inspiration for practitioners at every stage of their Flower Essence journey. Come along, explore new ways to share your passion, and leave feeling ready to speak with clarity and heart.

Calling all BFVEA Members and friends!

In our next Pro-Exchange meeting on Thursday, 26th Feb

Rosana Souto, A Flower Essence practitioner and teacher with more than 37 years of experience, including 21 years specialising in work with autistic individuals, will present her pioneering work with AAMPARA Autism, an Association dedicated to providing multiprofessional assistance and support to atypical families in vulnerable circumstances.

This initiative represents the first public programme of its kind in Brazil and is emerging as a global reference, having been featured at the 3rd World Congress on Traditional, Complementary and Integrative Medicine.

Rosana will also share practical insights on working with autistic individuals, grounded in Dr Bach’s philosophy, and introduce emerging applications of Bach Flower Essences that may help enhance therapeutic outcomes.

On Saturday 28th March, we will host a talk by Martin Kutternik, founder of PANOSUN Ltd., a UK distributor of holistic health technologies. His presentation will trace Co Creative Science, from its evolution with the pioneering spiritual experiments at the Findhorn Foundation to the practical methodologies developed at Perelandra. Together, we will explore how to move beyond trying to control nature and instead step into a conscious, co-creative partnership with nature’s own intelligence. Don’t miss this opportunity—there are still a few places available at our Gathering. # “floweressences” # “vibrationalessences” #”edwardbach” # “bachflowers”

When you arrive at the Gathering on 27th March, you will ease gently into the evening by immersing yourself in flower consciousness with Shelly Sishton, followed by an inspiring talk from Andrew Tressider. Michele Bentley will then guide you into a deeply restorative sound journey, weaving vibrational healing with selected Bach essences. This will help you relax, ground and rebalance so that you spend a peaceful night in preparation for the exciting and vibrant Saturday that lies ahead. # “floweressences” # “vibrationalessences” #”edwardbach” # “bachflowers
