Dr. Berkowsky’s 2010 4-Day Essential Oil Training Intensive
Essential Oils And
Transformative Soul-Level Healing
Dates: October 21-24, 2010
Location: LaConner Country Inn, on the waterfront in lovely LaConner, Washington
I teach one in-person training intensive per year on deep psycho-spiritual healing work with essential oils. This year’s class is scheduled for October 21-24 in beautiful LaConner, Washington.
These workshops are very rare and powerful experiences. Many students have attended the classes for years and each year’s workshop is becoming a progressively more intimate, spirit-filled experience.
The intensives not only provide rare education that cannot be found anywhere else, they are also a time when a group of like-minded souls come together, delve into the realm of essential oils and spirit and form deep and lasting bonds with each other.
The four days of soul-journeying among the oils is experienced like a vision quest and the students not only greatly enhance their practical skills in healing the spirit but experience transformation within their own as well. The class is like manna that appears for only four days each year and provides sanctuary from the daily storm during which one can steer his or her soul back on to the course toward wholeness.
I have been presenting these classes for quite awhile now and I can’t predict at this point how many more years I am going to be able to motivate myself to do them.
They require almost an entire year of labor-intensive preparation that, at this stage of my journey, keeps me working many more hours than I would like. Therefore, if you want to be certain that you receive the one of a kind in-person training I provide, I suggest you give this opportunity serious consideration. At this point, I have not decided whether I will another live training intensive next year. There is a good possiblity that this will be the last one.
What You Will Learn and Experience
In this year’s class, I will be focusing on 5 crucial essential oils including: blue chamomile, ginger, Inula graveolens, neroli and pine. A knowledge of these oils can vastly expand your potential for deep soul-level work with essential oils. I will also be making available for purchase by the students, excellent, soul-healing quality sets of these oils (at very special prices) that I have personally sourced and stock for my own work.
The class will be packed with practical training.
In addition to the in-depth study of the five essential oils listed above, the class will feature:
1) Extensive case-study training. Students will be taught interviewing technique (in Spiritual PhytoEssencing, the client interview referred to as the anamnesis) and how to analyze the anamnesis information and translate it into oil selections that mirror the interviewee’s soul qualities and formative experiences.
2) I will be presenting a transcript of the anamnesis from one of the cases from my private practice. Afterward the class will divide into mixed groups of experienced and new students to analyze the interview data (using the 2 central reference books for Spiritual PhytoEssencing practice: The Spiritual PhytoEssencing Repertory Of Essential Oils and my Berkowsky’s Synthesis Materia Medica/Spiritualis Of Essential Oils) and determine which essential oils they feel should have been included in that person’s custom blend. Afterward, I will reveal the formula of the blend I prepared, explain my oil selections and describe the outcome.
3) A good portion of an afternoon will be devoted to in-depth training in using The Spiritual PhytoEssencing Repertory Of Essential Oils. To learn more about this invaluable reference tool, click on the following link.
4) On Saturday afternoon, I (with assistance from several of my senior students) will supervise a potentizing lab class where everyone will receive hands-on training in preparing a homeopathic style dilution from an essential oil blend. The potentized dilution, is very powerful, enables a person’s soul to experience the blend on two quantum levels of energy and elevates the blend experience to one of profound, lasting transformation. This year we will be potentitizing one of my Kabbalah Series Blends – Back To The Garden Blend.
Everybody will prepares his or her own potentized dilution from the Back to The Garden Blend. Then, on Saturday evening, at the end of class, each person adds a few drops their potentized dilution to a serving of organic red wine (or, for those who don’t drink wine, water mixed with agave syrup ) and listen to music that I have selected which connects the soul with the inner nature of that blend. As you can imagine, the rest of the evening is transporting.
5) This year, is one of the few years, that the training intensive will last for 4 days instead of the usual 3. On the extra day (Thursday, October 21st) I will be presenting a mixture of Spiritual PhytoEssencing and elements of my Natural Health Science System.
That session will feature instruction in: a) Natural Health Science System rules of food combining b) basic Natural Health Science System food preparation technique c) essential oil use with naturopathic hydrotherapies including the netural bath, salt-glow and sitz bath d) construction of drainage protocols (protocols used before the administration of a customized essential oil blend to reduce physical and psychical resistance and thus provide a clearer pathway for the action of the blend) using cell salts and flower remedy/gemstone elixirs e) correlating certain basic concepts of Spiritual PhytoEssencing including etheric body, astral body and spirit body with some of the fundamental elements of life and health: pure water, fresh air, exercise, adequate warmth, sufficient rest and sleep, emotional harmony.
6) Throughout the 4-days, the students will be experiencing some of my wildcrafted Mount Julius Flower Remedy/Gemstone Elixir blends. I personally wildcrafted and prepared all the mother essences for the flower remedies and developed and prepared the gemstone elixir combinations. I have been making my own flower essences (wild Pacific Northwest and Hawaiian species) and gemstone elixirs for nearly 30 years and many people consider them to be the finest they have ever experienced.
The students will also be using some of my handmade AromAnita Essential Oil Blends. Both the flower remedy/gemstone elixir combos and the essential oil blends will be made available to attendees at special steeply discounted prices.
LaConner, Washington, my teaching home base for the last 10 years, is a lovely, small art-colony town situated right on the Puget Sound. The hotel I present the classes in (the LaConner Country Inn) is small and quaint, located one block from the water, with a log-burning fireplace in the lobby and gas-fireplaces in every room.
I have chosen LaConner not only because of its proximity to the water, its 19th century buildings, art galleries, antique shops, etc., but also because it is located in a vortex of peaceful energy consistent with the energetics of the class.

I encourage you to consider attending this event. The class size is relatively small, and despite the current economic climate, the available places are filling up. You will find it to be a powerful and memorable educational experience.
The class invariably is composed of a gentle, spiritually oriented group of students. This 4-day training intensive, its beautiful venue, and gathering of those whose souls have a profound desire to receive, not only provides a rare, invaluable learning experience, but also nourishment for the soul that, even more important during this difficult time, helps it overcome inertial stuckness and move forward toward personal wholeness.
