Quino got caught in some bushes and the vet has diagnosed an inflamed tendon from his neck to his shoulder ๐ถ
As you can see, he has selected German Chamomile to ease the inflammatory response from the tendon strain ๐ผ
During the session Quino also selected Arnica CO2 and St John's wort floral water ๐ฆ
How lucky Quino is to have such a devoted and dedicated guardian!โค๏ธ

CANINE TRAUMA WORKSHOP! ๐ถ๐ค
Last Sunday we held our Canine Trauma workshop, covering how, why and when dogs can be effected by traumatic events and how to use herbal extracts and essential oils to resolve the residual trauma ๐
It was well attended with a global audience, with of course, our own Whitethorn Team member Dr Silke Kleefeld whom explained the scientific research and papers behind the practice ๐ง
A big thank you to Paula Doohan (dog behaviourist from TV series Madrai) for bringing Eddie (and Jacob his pal) as our demo dog ๐ถ Eddie commenced the session in an extremely anxious state - by the time it was over, he was curled up in a ball asleep at Paula's feet! Paula will keep on offering and we shall see how he responds and works through his anxiety โค
The wonderful power of Nature! ๐ฟ๐ธ๐ณโ๏ธ

These guys seem to have different opinions on Valerian root floral/aromatic water!
But therein lies the effectiveness of the self-selection technique!
Every animal knows what they need and when they need it!

I performed an 'unscheduled dismount' on a 16HH TB yesterday whilst in the top left hand corner of the arena. It was very windy and he's not a fan of wind. I havent hit the deck for a long time and it was an uncomplicated fall so no real harm done - to me, that is ๐
However, after the lesson and putting the horse back in the stable and untacking him, I could see an uncertainty and anxiety in his face. He is such a sensitive soul and when riding him, I am acutely aware of his sentitivity - using light aids etc โบ๏ธ
I happened to have Ylang ylang Essential Oil (Cert Organic from WhitethornHerbals.com) with me and offered it to him.
His face was transformed! After much licking and chewing, a new light shone through his eyes. He looked SO happy as his eyes smiled back at me! I was delighted to be able to relieve the uncertainty and anxiety that I saw in such a simple yet profound way โค
I often feel we underestimate the effect on our horses of an 'unscheduled dismount' has on our horses and certainly my work over the years has revealed quite a few cases where animals have 'had their confidence dented' due to a fall - of either their rider or themselves.
I was really really pleased to have this oil on me to help him redress the shock and possible anxiety around losing his pilot. After all I guess we could all do with a little courage at some time or other!
No pic of the horse I am afraid, (and definitely not making public any purple skin!) so putting in a beautiful pic of Ylang ylang instead. What a beautiful plant that we are so lucky to have access to!
