Thank you, Olga for your lovely transparent technique demonstration. I have just received your book too! And these tutorials are wonderful to follow through with, as I seem to understand it more when I see it being done♥ I still seem to be heavy handed with the paint on my top layers and edges, but I gather it will come with practice!!

[@olgakoelsch]

You are so welcome! It requires a bit of practice and soon you will see results! 🤗

[@annfuller8859]

This is so beautiful. I am going to try it today. I am taking care of my mother as she goes through cancer treatments and so I have a lot of quiet sitting time. She loves flowers and I think it would be a nice way to enjoy the time with her as she recovers. Warm regards, from Parksville, British Columbia, Canada. 🤍🇨🇦

Dames wat een prachtige en leerzame video's presenteren jullie. Zelf ben ik elke dag met wat kwaaaaltjes aan de gang. Medicatie daar ben ik niet zo'n lief hebber van, maar ja ik moet wel. Graag wil ik meer en meer leren over de natuurgeneeskunde leren. Dus ik kijk regelmatig naar jullie filmpjes en ook van anderen. Een buurman die hevige pijn aanvallen heeft, die wil ik graag helpen. Dit recept van deze mooie video wil ik gaan gebruiken en maken voor die buurman. En heermoes thee om meer vocht af te drijven zo om veel afval stoffen te gaan afvoeren. Ook in de behandeling de teunisbloen olie in capsule. Voor opbouw en nier ondersteuning, als laatste na alle voor gaande is thee van de walnoot, en het eten van de noot zelf voor opbouw van de gezondheid... wat vinden jullie van dit plan?? Groetjes Léon
