The year 2023 is a new cycle of the new year by Nine Star Ki astrology, and it starts February 4th every year. 2023 is a new start – hope and kindness.

The transition to the new year can be challenging for us.

How do we draw a line from last year (past) to the new year (present) and move forward?

How do you make your new year resolutions or goals and manifest?

The world has changed so much and is uncertain in the last three years.

Another new year has come if you feel you are stacked or do not know what you want to do with your life and cannot move forward.

You are not alone.

It takes time and a gradual organic slow process as peeling onion skin to shed to re-birth like butterflies, and then you find the true you.

There is support for you to help your mind safely. 

Learn:

  • What is Bach Flower Remedy (homeopathic essence)
  • Which Bach Flower Remedy (homeopathic essence) will help for your new year or help you find your purpose 
  • How to take Bach Flower Remedy
  • How often to take Bach Flower Remedy
  • How long to take Bach Flower Remedy
  • What to expect after you take Bach Flower Remedy
  • General Nine Star Ki for 2023

Try & Taste:

  • Bach Flower Remedy (homeopathic essence) for your condition up to two or three remedies per person.

  • Botanical Medicinal Tea (Umeboshi pickled plum and Kombo kelp tea: It is believed that a pickled plum protects us from evil and illness, and a tied of dried sea kelp is a symbol of happiness for New Year.

    When you take the workshop, you will receive simple guidelines handout. Please bring your notebook and pen if you want to take a note.
