The 5 Flowers – a Sensory Journey

Within the wisdom of Spiritual Alchemy, the 5 Senses are like 5 Flowers. They experience natural states of waking, sleeping, dreaming and transcendent states as our consciousness moves in and out through our sense organs.

The heart is central to this process. It is an organ of perception; it nourishes these 5 flowers and creates our sensory perceptions of the world. How our consciousness experiences the outer world can be expanded through heart-centred practices. The heart then becomes our path to profound connections, especially with Plants.

As the root of the sense organs, heart practices can bring the natural world into existence within your consciousness.

HOW WILL THESE PRACTICES TRANSFORM YOUR EXPERIENCE OF PLANTS?

These practices give an experience of how the heart is the origin of our perception and experience of the outer world. This revelation is a powerful insight that can deepen over time. Through the heart, you can develop greater levels of mindfulness, deeper states of relaxation, and profound connection.

Plants help us to cultivate trust in our inner wisdom, assist us in raising and deepening our consciousness, aid meditation by easing restlessness of mind and body, help us access our intuition, remember our dreams, create safe and sacred space, take potent trance journeys, recollect past lives, and receive healing visions.

Each Practice will work with:

Connection and deep relaxation  

Nourish

Move into flow

Please bring:

A Yoga Mat

A Blanket or covering

An eye pillow or eye covering

A cushion
