Aromatherapy


It used to sound strange, but now it is an accepted, effective therapy for people and animals to heal the mental body and bring comfort to the emotions. Pure essential oils extracted by distillation are used for their scent (aroma) and added to sprays, diffusers or just placed a drop or two at a time, onto the horse's chest or withers... or mixed with a carrier oil (olive or grapseed) at a 1-30 ratio and a few drops rubbed into our palms to smell or on a dog's back. Do not use essential oils on cats - they are too sensitive for direct application! Use only non-toxic oils (lavender, sandalwood, bergamot, ylang ylang, frankincense and patchouli are suggested) and never use on babies or on pregnant beings. Scent is used for the mental body.

Horses Heal Us

If you can get you out of the way when you come to your horse, he will show you how to shift your position within the field to a place that supports and nurtures your soul. It's all about how you feel and you empower those feelings and they create your reality and your horse is ready to show you how to feel magnificent.

Compassion not Compulsion

In all of our relationships, the light of integrity is held by Compassion. If we consider something other than our own motives and agendas, we can open to living a real life outside of the world of illusion. With animals, we will establish communication instead of domination. With loved ones, we will share our very souls. With humanity, we will become beacons of reason and unconditional love. We will shift ourselves and those who resonate with Nature to a higher kind of love and life where the demoralizing of others is simply not accepted.
