Mission Statement
Awakening the Truth Woven Within Our Bodies
At the Flower of Life Foundation, our mission is to restore coherence between human health, family systems, and the natural world.
We integrate nervous system science, birth psychology, and embodied education to support individuals and families in developing resilience, emotional literacy, and sustainable ways of living. Through therapeutic services, practitioner training, and community-based initiatives, we aim to cultivate a model of care that honors both biological intelligence and relational connection.
We believe that when humans live in alignment with nature — internally and externally — health becomes regenerative rather than reactive.
Our Beginnings
A Living School for the New Earth
It began in the mountains of Colorado, beneath the vast, soul-stirring skies of Kenosha Pass. There, in a sacred teepee built with hand-carved aspen trees, I received a vision—a divine download that set my life on a course I could have never scripted. I had embarked on an alchemical journey guided by the mystery school traditions, and what I uncovered was not something new, but something ancient within me… something I had always known.
I was shown a living web of interconnected, higher-vibrational beings across the globe—souls who perceive life through the lens of love and walk with a conscious awareness of our oneness with all that is. In that moment, I understood my soul’s purpose: to build a magnetic resonance field that would call forth the new souls incarnating now so their descent into form would not be a traumatic fall into polarity and fragmentation, but a gentle landing into a world being re-woven by coherence, presence, and remembrance.
Flower of Life Land Project
A Forest School & Regenerative Village in the Blue Ridge
The Flower of Life Land Project is a proposal to establish a regenerative village and living learning environment in the Blue Ridge region near Charlottesville, Virginia.
The long-term vision is to steward a piece of land where education, healing, and ecological living are woven into daily life. Rooted in emerging research on early development and human ecology, the project explores how land, relationships, and community design can support healthier families and future generations.
The project will unfold in phases over time, beginning with land stewardship and gradually developing into a forest school, cooperative living environment, and retreat-based healing center.
Meet the Founder
Christianna Deichmann
Embarking on my life's journey has led me to the captivating realm of biodynamics and how we are connected to everything in the known universe—a groundbreaking field of psychology and spiritual science that has become my guiding light. It shapes every aspect of my life, influencing how I nurture presence within my family, how I create change, how I manifest my dreams, and how I extend a helping hand to others.
In my quest to enact change, I dive deep into the unseen realms of the intelligent energetic field that envelops us all. This pursuit isn't just a profession for me; it's a calling that resonates to the core of my being. I'm driven by a profound curiosity about consciousness and its infinite possibilities. Exploring the inner workings of cognition, imagination, and volition fuels my passion as I strive to unravel the mysteries of what motivates us and how our inner landscapes intertwine with the boundless ocean of information that surrounds us.
This profound fascination with consciousness fuels my very soul. When my soul is lit, I love to take long walks along the curvature of the land with my dog Casey. I love to embrace my children and read together on lazy Sunday afternoons. I am a foodie at heart with my past career as a sommelier. I love to smell the fragrance of flowers in spring and in the evening when night pollinators infuse the air with their nectars. I love watching hummingbirds and hold hands with my husband. My favorite place on Earth is along the shores of Lake Michigan, even though I am a traveler to many lands. I love making heartful connections with people who want more for this world. My heart lights up in my work, which I do not even consider work, it’s my passion: to be with someone along their path in life.
My journey has been marked by profound challenges, including encounters with trauma that have shaped my own embodiment story. Yet, it's the understanding of my own past that has empowered me to overcome adversity and live a life full of joy amongst the challenges and conquests I face.
Continuously peeling back the layers of my being, I draw upon a wealth of trainings and wisdom. Equipped with tools such as Pre and Perinatal Psychology, Spiritual Anatomy, Hermetics, Craniosacral Therapy, Inner Child mapping, and an array of somatic healing arts, I am fortunate to extend support and guidance to others on their own transformative journeys. I stand upon the shoulders of so many influencers who I harbor deep gratitude for, like each crashing wave along the seashore they have each imparted unique shaping of my inner being. I love them all and cherish the ideal of “Pass it Forward.”

Our Methods
Reuniting Science and Spirit for Real Healing
Modern psychology meets ancient wisdom to restore balance, vitality, and connection to your true self.
Healing the Whole Human
My work began in the healing arts—psychology, somatic therapies, and craniosacral work. Over the years, I noticed something missing: people were disconnected from their deeper self, their inner wisdom, and the sense that life is guided by something larger.
Modern science helps us understand the physical body. Spiritual traditions help us understand the unseen world and our whole being that encompasses spirit, soul, and body.
True healing needs both science and spiritual wisdom.
Our work is rooted in three guiding principles:
1. Salutogenesis (Health is Intrinsic) We focus on the origins of health rather than the management of disease. By strengthening protective factors — emotional regulation, relational stability, and environmental coherence — we support long-term resilience rather than symptom suppression.
2. Biophilia: Human beings are biologically wired for connection with the natural world. Exposure to nature, seasonal rhythms, and ecological stewardship directly impacts nervous system regulation, cognitive development, and overall wellbeing.
3. Birth Psychology & Embodied Development: Nervous system patterning begins before birth. Prenatal environment, birth experience, and early attachment shape lifelong emotional regulation, relational capacity, and stress response. Supporting families during these formative stages creates generational change.
We believe:
The conditions surrounding birth influence relational health.
The quality of early attachment influences leadership and community capacity.
The regulation of the nervous system influences collective stability.
If we seek cultural transformation, we must begin at the root: maternal wellbeing, early development, and attachment-informed care.
Want to understand more about our methodologies?
More information on validated concepts for personal evolution is below.
By recognizing the interconnectedness of the body, mind, and spirit at the quantum level, we can gain insight into the holistic nature of existence and the profound interplay between consciousness and the physical world. This perspective underscores the importance of holistic approaches to health, well-being, and personal growth that honor the interconnectedness of all aspects of our being.
The Role of Intelligent Energy
In our work, we invoke the intelligent energy known as Shakti, Kundalini, Force, or Innate Wisdom from the Soul to facilitate healing. Intelligent energy is a vital, creative force that is often described as the primordial cosmic energy. This energy is invoked to assist in the healing process, working directly with the cells of the body to create change and transformation at the deepest levels.
Speaking to the Cells of the Body
Through our words and energy, we engage in a dialogue with the cells of your body, fostering an environment where healing can occur. This process involves speaking directly to the cellular memory, inviting it to release old patterns and embrace new, healthier ways of being. This communication is both subtle and profound, influencing your body’s innate intelligence and capacity for self-healing.
Mystical and Energetic Work
Our approach incorporates mystical and energetic work to facilitate profound transformation. This involves working with the body’s energy systems to clear blockages and support the flow of life force energy. Techniques such as energy healing, breathwork, and visualization are employed to activate and harmonize your energetic body, creating a foundation for deep healing and transformation.
Rewiring Neurologic Operating Systems
By becoming conscious of the circumstances of your prenatal life and birth, and understanding how you responded to these profoundly imprinting times, you can make conscious choices you never knew were possible. This awareness allows for the rewiring of your neurologic operating systems, shifting from survival-based responses to patterns that support thriving and well-being.
Empowerment and Resourcing
This process is empowering and resourcing, offering you tools and insights to navigate your life with greater ease and resilience. By uncovering and transforming the key aspects of your embodiment journey, you can liberate yourself from the unconscious patterns that have been holding you back, opening the door to a life of greater freedom and fulfillment. Understanding the profound impact of our prenatal and birth experiences on our present-day lives is crucial for true healing and transformation. By integrating somatic processing, mystical and energetic work, and the invocation of Shakti, we create a holistic approach that speaks directly to the cells of your body, fostering deep and lasting change. Through this journey of embodiment, you can uncover and rewire the patterns that have shaped your life, empowering you to thrive in ways you never imagined possible.
The Flower of Life Connection
Once, all life in the universe knew the Flower of Life as the creation pattern -- the geometrical design leading us into and out of physical existence. Then from a very high state of consciousness, we fell into darkness and forgot who we were. For thousands of years, the secret was held in ancient artifacts and carvings around the world and encoded in the cells of all life.
Now we are rising up from that sleep, shaking old, stale beliefs from our minds and glimpsing the golden light of this new dawn streaming through the windows of perception.
Human Design is Intimately Entertwined with Nature
Michio Kaku once said, “The human brain has 100 billion neurons, each neuron connected to 10 thousand other neurons. Sitting on your shoulders is the most complicated object in the known universe.” But what if I say that it isn’t only a complex object in our universe but a replica of the universe itself at a smaller scale? No, I am not kidding. In a paper named “The quantitative comparison between the neuronal network and the cosmic web,” researchers found scientific evidence that stated that the universe is just like a giant human brain. The Hermetic Principle, “As Above, So Below” is a key to unlocking the secrets of how our body-mind-spirit works. Knowing the sacred geometry of our design is key to knowing who we are, what we are, where we came from, where we are going, and what our purpose is.
