Katie Hess is an expert in flower alchemy - using the healing power of flowers to awaken our true potential. She travels in search of rare flowers with the healing qualities most needed today, from the forests of British Columbia to sacred sites in India, rainforests in Costa Rica, hot springs in Iceland and the jungles of Taiwan. Katie captures the activating life-force potential of flowers and translates it into an accessible method to bring more happiness into our daily lives. 


One of the most sustainable forms of natural medicine, flower remedies are known for their short-term benefits like clarity, focus and sleep, with long-term benefits of rapid personal growth.
