  • My Crystal journey

    My Crystal journey

    It is all balance Somebody asked me a little while back how I connected with crystals, and not being used to the question, or talking about crystals in most human company, I found it a little difficult to answer in a specific ‘this is how its done’ way. This is because for everybody it is…

  • Give healing time…

    and time will heal beautifully. Thursday 15th July 2021 Timmy has a severe slash on the inside of his hock. The vet was called and we got the tetanus, anti inflammatory and antibiotic into him but that was all he would allow us to do. Although we tried to sedate him to clean the wound…

  • Holistic Healing

    Holistic Healing

    My personal definition It has been a spring and summer of many issues which has deepened the way I look at healing, or more precisely ‘whole healing’. Neige was diagnosed with Uveitis in both eyes. A couple of weeks after that Timmy got caught up in fence wire broken by my pony crashing into a…

  • Essential Oil self selection with Querida

    Essential Oil self selection with Querida

    Querida is suffering a bit with laminitis this spring, so on 6th June, while she was resting in the shelter I did a little bit of aromatherapy with her. I felt that she may want some Arnica to relieve inflammation pain, and also compensatory pain from lifting her feet to relieve them. I thought I…

  • Can your horse go to sleep with you on the end of the rope?

    Can your horse go to sleep with you on the end of the rope?

    An exploration into expectation anxiety Its a funny thing ‘expectation’. You put water in a kettle, turn the kettle on and expect the water to boil in a minute or so. If it doesn’t we start to fret and ask questions such as ‘ Is it plugged in? Is it broken? Do I need to get…

    Sometimes things have to get worse before they get better..

    Over the last couple of weeks I have engaged in some healing sessions, with the herd as a whole and, with individual members, around laminitis, and deeper into the digestive systems.  On the basis that sometimes things get worse before they get better, yesterday we have Chocolate with laminitis and mild diarrhoea, Risada with laminitis getting…

  • Be Present Together, Heal Together

    Be Present Together, Heal Together

    This is mutual trust. This is mutual healing. This is having no expectation, no defined outcome, no plan, no control. This is just Being. Yesterday, I wandered onto the pasture and went and stood with Risada, who was relaxing with her back leg cocked. I wanted to just sense into how she was doing physically…

  • Releasing arena anxiety with Neige & starting communication

    If you have been following Neige you will know that we have had a couple of sessions trying to find a peaceful connection in the arena. The first time we put on a head collar in the arena she just could not be at peace. She was very high on her thinking levels (7-8) and…

  • A Healing Session…

    A Healing Session…

    An amazing session with the herd this afternoon. Very healing I think for all of us. Lots of sharing of the present moment and also bringing unwanted fears, anxieties, stresses and pain into the present moment and releasing them. The session started with the ponies who were in the shelter. Mostly Chocolate engaged although at…
