Bach Being Present – Monthly Zoom Workshops for BFRPs
🌸“Discover how Presence and the Bach Flower Remedies can transform daily life.”🌸
Following on from the successful Presence and the Bach Flower Remedies workshop held last year, monthly Zoom Being Present workshops are now offered. These sessions support BFRPs in deepening their ability to be present and in bringing Presence into everyday life.
It is a wonderful group, rich in knowledge and experience — practitioners with a deep understanding of the Bach Flower Remedies, as well as meditation, mindfulness, and various healing modalities. And yet, what we are discovering is that learning how to be present goes far beyond meditation or mindful techniques. Presence is more direct, simpler, and profoundly transformative.

For the past ten years here in Japan, we have been exploring how the Bach Flower Remedies can support us in living more fully in the present moment. These workshops are a way to share this experience with the wider Bach community.
Workshop Format
🌸 Experiential practices to help bring you into the present moment. (Please allow some space for movement and have a vase or pot of flowers nearby.)
🌸 Sharing your experience of the exercises.
🌸 Group discussion on the deeper issues of Presence and the role of the Bach Flower Remedies in the process.
🌸 Final shared Presence exercise to close.
🌸 Final sharings
🌸 Occasional Q&A with Ritsuko
Each session is unique, shaped by the participants’ experiences and the unfolding process of developing the ability to be present.
Sessions last approximately 120 minutes, depending on the number of participants.
Members have reported meaningful changes in their daily life:
🌸greater emotional balance
🌸clarity and calm
🌸less reactivity
🌸a more grounded, spacious awareness
Small shifts, with very real impact.
We have been holding these Presence-based sessions since 2017 here in Japan, and the work continues to unfold and grow with each meeting. If any Japanese speakers would like to join the Japanese sessions, please refer to the Japanese page for details.
