ABFE Courses & Workshops

A Banksia Mother Tincture Toast
Full Workshop Schedule here.
These empowering courses are for everyone with an interest in natural healing either for themselves, their friends & family or professionally. The ABFE College Course was developed by and is fully accredited by Australian Bush Flower Essences and has been taught in naturopathic colleges for over 20 years. However because it contains such valuable knowledge (that anyone can use), it is now being made available to members of the community and practitioners in more informal venues outside major cities.
You don’t need to know anything about flower essences or natural healing to do a course, nor even have an intention of using the essences on anyone other than yourself, your family, pets and friends. We start with the basics and by the end you will be a confident and competent flower essence practitioner. If you are a professionally qualified practitioner, you will find this information exceptionally useful in your clinical practice, enhancing your existing knowledge base and modality.

Course Testimonials
Excellent!! Jewelli is a lovely treasure of positive energy with a true enthusiasm for the essences and a very good ability at helping to infuse us with that and help us to understand the information we are learning. THANKYOU!!! It’s been one of my greatest pleasures doing this course. I’ve become really impassioned about the flower essences and how wonderful they are. I am truly grateful for the awakening and healings I have and continue to receive. This is a beautiful mode of healing that I would recommend (emphatically!) to everyone. Truly beautiful!

Jewelli has a great manner in the presentation and transmition of this information. She displays a thorough understanding of the remedies and is very helpful with advice on application of the remedies. Throughout the course, knowledge of the diverse qualities of the different flowers encouraged me to identify and reflect on many aspects of myself and adopt a fresh perspective of others in my life.
