Deepening Circles are Workshops and Study Groups on Flower Essences and Flower Essence Therapy offering advancement in knowledge, combined with Guided Journeys and opportunities for connection with groups of like minded colleagues.
Open to those interested in studying and/or working with Flower Essences and the deeper application of Flower Essence Therapy, Deepening Circles are also open to those Committed Souls who want to deepen their own healing Journey.
Alchemical Guided Journeys based on Plant Archetypes
One of the highlights of our Deepening Circles is the quality and depth of our Guided Healing Journeys, focused on the Archetype of specific plants and flowers and their Healing support. Every module allows opportunity for you to work on your own inner issues. for us to work on ourselves, as well as information supporting our work offered to others. We always conclude our live gatherings by emanating healing out to the world.
The experiences offered by Ruth Toledo Altschuler of online meetings for the deepening of our connection with flower essences are amazing!
At the end of each meeting, the multiple and strong feelings and sensations bring us to an intimate contact with the plants and nature, even though we are virtually connecting; and, in the same way, we feel this strong connection amongst the group members.
This is my testimonial, and that is what I see in the eyes and expression of each participant at the end of the sessions!

Interactive Single Module or Multiple Module Formats
The format is typically one of interactive Online Single Module Workshops or Online Multiple Module courses, offered in the form of 4 to 6 meetings, one gathering per week.
The content of the courses will meet people at different levels. Further Modules are created in response to your demand and your interest in deepening the understanding of certain topics, while having space for discussion and interaction with a group or peers.
As a participant of Ruth’s online courses, even 23 years after taking my first FES California Flower Essences course also led by Ruth, I still feel the same enchantment with the flowers and their essences and experience the same freshness and inspiration coming from Ruth as a teacher.
Through these courses, my use of the flower essences is renewed, as the perspective and focus that Ruth brings are of great depth, while the media rich content shared through the internet provides a form of contact with the flowers that is incredibly strong.
This is a valuable experience: the images, the sound, the quality of the content, the depth of the proposed experiences, the delicacy in listening, everything is absolutely well placed, with great zeal and care.

Experienced Mentor and Founding Elder
A Certified Flower Essence Practitioner by the Flower Essence Society since 1993, Ruth has studied extensively, often where the plants grow wild, with the original researchers of the most well established flower essence lines.
In her three decades of practice offering sequential Flower Essence Therapy, Ruth has had the privilege of bearing witness to the evolutionary journey of hundreds of individuals. Her ongoing practice of 29 years, combined with the scope of her in-depth study of flower essence plants with their original researchers has given her a unique perspective and experience that is unequaled in this field.
For 22 years Ruth Toledo Altschuler has dedicated her heart and soul to the development of Flower Essence Therapy as a respected and well known healing modality in Brazil. There, she is honored as one of the Founding Elders of this modality, now present in University advanced programs and Public Health offerings, as well as serving people of all ages throughout the country, from North to South.
Ruth has been a speaker at Flower Essences international conferences and events, as well as a pioneer in introducing Basic and Advanced Education on Flower Essence Therapy in Brazil. Over a period of 26 years, she has also been a translator of books and courses, converting to Portuguese some of the most inspired advanced courses given by leading edge teachers, both in Brazil as well as at the source locations of their research.
It is from this combination of knowledge and applied experience that Ruth now shares her legacy through her Essence Circles offerings.
