60-MINUTE PRIVATE CONSULTATION + PERSONALIZED FLOWER ESSENCE BLEND
Oak. Elm. Holly. Beech. Willow. Wild Rose. Clematis. Aspen.
These are just a few of the familiar trees and flowers that inspired Dr. Edward Bach’s gentle system of healing flower essences. Each flower essence harmonizes a common emotional state that we all experience at different times in life.
A Bach Flower Essence Consultation offers a quiet space to explore your present emotional landscape with curiosity and compassion. Rather than changing who you are, a personalized combination of flower essences gently supports the harmonizing of thoughts and feelings that may be clouding your natural strengths, inner wisdom, and connection to your own Inner Guidance.

Supporting Healthier Relationships
Many of our deepest habits and ways of relating become most visible in relationships.
You may find yourself putting others’ needs before your own, becoming overly concerned for family or friends, seeking approval, finding it difficult to say no, or allowing others’ opinions to influence your own decisions and inner knowing.
Through the energetic balancing of Flower Essences, these tendencies soften, relationships often become more balanced, authentic, and fulfilling, beginning with the relationship you have with yourself.
Reconnecting with Your Inner Guidance
Life is often shaped by outer expectations, emotional reactions, and the opinions of others. Over time, it can become difficult to hear the quiet wisdom that already exists within.
This work gently supports a return to your own Inner Guidance, helping you trust your inner knowing over outside influences, live more in harmony with your unique life plan (dharma), and move forward with greater clarity, authenticity, and purpose.
In Harmony with Yoga, Meditation & Ayurveda
Yoga teaches us to observe the mind with greater awareness. Ayurveda supports balance through food, lifestyle, and the rhythms of our daily choices.
Bach Flower Essences beautifully complement these practices by gently supporting the thoughts, emotions, and reactions that can interfere with living from your deeper nature. Together they encourage greater presence, resilience, clarity, and connection with your Inner Guidance.

WARM WORDS
I have been absolutely blown away by the effectiveness of the Bach Flower Remedies. I wasn’t sure what to expect when I started, but over time I found myself responding to situations with greater emotional balance. Having Shankari’s guidance throughout that journey made all the difference. She has an incredible ability to listen, ask thoughtful questions, and identify the Flower Essences that best supported what I was experiencing. Even when the work felt challenging, I always felt supported. Her knowledge, intuition, and thoughtful guidance gave me the confidence to trust the process. I’m incredibly grateful for her consultations and for the transformation I’ve experienced along the way.
