Self study: other than the above, my greatest influences include Molly Sheehan of Green Hope Farm, Dorothy MacLean of Findhorn Foundation, Steve Johnson, founder of Alaskan Essences, Edward H. Bach, founder of Bach Flower Essences in 1936, and botanist/mystic/medicine woman Hildegard Von Bingen, who was utilizing flower essence medicine as early as the 12th century! Also extremely influential on my practice are the ancient teachings of: Buddha, 6th century poet Hafiz, the ‘Tao Te Ching’, and Quan Yin.
