SUMMARY:How to Attain Perfect Well-being with Flower Essences
DESCRIPTION:This seminar delves into the conscious wisdom of Nature. It instructs students in a yogic approach to flower essence assessment\, based on stimulating the client’s existing positive qualities. We will focus on techniques to help our problems virtually shrink in size in relation to our inner growth; on our ability to find solutions where none previously seemed accessible through the correct selection of flower essence regimes; and how to find more easily and quickly the happiness that all human beings seek. We will use introspective exercises as well as partner and group work as tools. We will also delve into botanical information and folklore related to each of the 20 Spirit-in-Nature Essences. The instructor also uses music – guitar and vocals – to convey the messages of these essences. \nAfter completion of this seminar students will be able to: \nDe-mystify flower essences as a holistic modality.\nMake these essences their own – in other words\, to feel comfortable using them.\nExperientially have the tools to add flower essences to their existing supplements or therapies for the benefit of their clients.\nHave a solid working understanding of the philosophy of flower essences.\nHave a direct experience that words cannot give: a direct experience and an inner knowing of these flower essences.\nInitiate the process of beginning to “just know” which flower essences are the “best” ones for their clients\, and in which sequential order to recommend them. This is a pivotal issue among students and practitioners alike.\nView instructor video: https://youtu.be/oz1rzbvfHH8 \nCourse prerequisite: Pre-reading of: “The Essential Flower Essence Handbook.” *This textbook is not included in the price of the course.\nLila’s book may be available for purchase at the Bastyr Book store or Amazon.\nPlease bring a notebook.\nPlease wear comfortable clothing\, bring a back pillow if needed.\nPlease Bring: Personal water bottle (filtered water dispensers available on campus to refill).\nLocation: Bastyr University Kenmore Campus\, room #133. \nBastyr University is housed in an older facility with fluctuating interior temperatures; it is advisable to wear layers. \nAlso\, Bastyr is a “fragrance-free” campus. \nComing from out of town?

We will begin with a discussion of the most current research in how these organisms are being disturbed by our modern society starting before birth and through the years and how that can cause increases in chronic disease allergies\, obesity and autoimmune conditions. \nNext\, there will be a discussion on gastrointestinal conditions including post-infectious IBS\, small intestinal bowel overgrowth\, and inflammatory bowel disease\, and the most relevant information in diagnostics\, prevention and treatment of these conditions. The focus will be on the relationship to the microbiome and how external choices can be part of the cause of these conditions\, as well as what treatments are being used to affect change in these microorganisms. Treatment options will include therapeutics diets (i.e. FODMAP\, SCD\, IBD-AID)\, herbal medicine\, probiotic and prebiotic supplements\, as well as the link to brain chemistry through the gut microbes. \nAttend this presentation to confidently: \n1. Identify how environmental and lifestyle factors can cause changes in the microbiota and its effects on immune\, inflammatory\, and metabolic changes\n2. Identify microbial relationship to common gastrointestinal conditions\n3. Treatment of common GI conditions\n4. Understand therapeutics related to microbiota based diets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Kim Bretz ND is a naturopathic doctor and founder of Fundamentals of Health\, a multidisciplinary clinic in Waterloo\, Ontario. Upon graduating from the University of Guelph in Biology\, she entered the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM)\, graduating in 2001. She is a public speaker having presented to multiple corporations and agencies\, and has been a guest lecturer for universities in the areas of health promotion\, functional foods and the microbiome. She was also on the advisory board for Ferring Pharmaceuticals’ natural health care products. \nAfter consulting\, teaching gastrointestinal physiology at the CCMH\, lecturing\, running continuing education programs for NDs\, MDs\, pharmacists and dieticians and working with patients for over 15 years in gut health and the microbiota\, this area has become a passion for her (the kind where you read research articles while drying your hair because it’s fun).  From testing options and diagnostics\, dietary programs\, gut healing\, nutrient replenishment\, probiotics\, and prebiotics she works with numerous areas of digestive health. She has worked with the Public Health Agency of Canada in a research study aiming to better understand antimicrobial resistance in Canada.
