Welcome to episode 67 of the Nurtured by Nature podcast, today I’m delighted to welcome back Kerrie Searle, a dear friend and animal communicator based in Australia. Kerrie has previously joined me twice now, including an inspiring introduction to Animal communication in Episode 11 and further wisdom from the animals and our journey to reconnecting in Episode 62.
In this conversation we have shifted focus a little and invite you to join us in considering the gentle but powerful alliance that plants offer us to move through the challenges of our times.
We invite you to join us with a curious mind and an open heart, for now is the time to understand that living in survival is truly no existence at all, it is time to be guided to move from surviving to thriving so that we are able to show up fully in this world and actively do what is ours to do, so we can co-create a society in which all beings are able to thrive side by side.
In this deeply honest conversation Kerrie shares how many years ago she found herself at rock bottom alongside Doctors who had exhausted all their treatment options. It was shortly after this that she found Flower Essences and the gentle yet transformative healing they offer that actively evolves to both the needs of the individual and the collective.
We discuss our shared journey of exploring this healing modality, whilst living in a culture that has separated us from our inherent knowing and our connection to the world around us. We consider the indigenous wisdom, ancestors and still existing worldviews where living in full connection with the energetic web of life and embracing plant intelligence is not just a possibility but a reality. We share stories of the essence blends Kerrie creates and our profound and moving experiences in creating and administering flower essence blends around the world. And of course a conversation with Kerrie wouldn’t be complete without a little Whale wisdom thrown in.

“After experiencing enormous trauma throughout my life, both personally and
professionally (having been a police detective for 17 years), I was mentally, physically and
emotionally broken when I retired from the police force. Heavily medicated and in and
out of hospital for years, my life was on a constant downward spiral.
I realised the medical model I was using wasn’t helping me to get better and it was at this
point that I chose a more holistic approach to my healing journey and also discovered the
extraordinary healing power of flower essences.
As I journeyed from a place of deep suppression to reconnecting with the disconnected
parts of myself, I also reconnected with my ability to communicate with animals (& other
beings/energies) at a very deep level.
I now make my own flower essences from the indigenous plants/trees where I live and I
use different combinations of flower essences to make a number of blends that I use to
heal and support my journey through life. These blends are also used for my animal and
human clients.
I bring my life experiences and learnings to my consults and workshops and now assist
other humans to reconnect to the disconnected parts of themselves so that they too can
communicate with their animals more deeply. I receive feelings, words, pictures, smells
and tastes from animals which allow me to communicate at a very deep level and become
a voice for the animals, conveying what they need heard, to their humans.”
