| I know there are always people on here looking for supplements to help calm their horse down so I wanted to share my experience with lavender oil.
I have a nervous mare that I have been looking for a supplement to help calm her down for quite sometime. I did finally find a supplement that worked well on her but it was costing me about $50 a month and it had a 7 day withdrawal period.
My sister said while she was at the Barrels for Bailey in Las Vegas, she saw a lady rub lavender oil on a horse's nose and the horse went from a non thinking fire breather to standing there with her eyes half shut. I thought she was full of crapolla but thought I would try it. My husband has been roping on my mare while I recover from my brain surgery and although she is good at home, when we take her somewhere her brains fall out her ear hole. She gets very nervous and tense both waiting for her run and in the box and does funny things in the corner.
That stuff was amazing! It only worked for about 45 minutes at a time, so I did have to keep reapplying it but it took enough edge off that she could think, relax in the box and make the corner but was still firing hard and thinking. She would even stand in the crowd with her head down and relaxed. Hubby was able to rope all day on her without feeling like he was pushing her too much. In the 5 years of owning her we have never been able to start and end the day on her. She would be to hot about mid way and we would put her up for fear of her blowing up. She won her first team roping buckle on it! If anyone was on the fence with it, I highly recommend it. |

   Location: Oklahoma | I have been known to sniff some on a cotton pad before... never thought about giving it to a horse! Very interesting, I'll have to look into it. I don't have a fire breathing dragon, but he does get nervous if he sees other fire breathing dragons in the alley/warm up area. I'm assuimg the oil in the same for human and animal use? |

| I put five or six drops in the palm of my hand rubbed them together and then rubbed it all over her nostrils, lips and muzzle. I also tried putting it on the inside of her bottom lip and that worked even better. |

Haha I'm a fan of certain essential oils too. I like lavendar because of its relaxing properties. It really helps to use lavendar bath salts for me to relax. I should try it on my horses too. Lavendar and Eucalyptus are a particular blend I like too. Peppermint oil is great for a brief tummy upset if one has no Tums or Prilosec. |

| Young Living oils are expensive. But look into Heritage Oils or google Rocky Mountain Oils or NAN. They are cheaper but still very high quality. Read their About Us page and how/where their oils come from and are processed. I don't know anything about doTerra oils. I am going to try that tea you mentioned. I love when people share their remedies.  |

I use Believe Essential Blend from YLO. It is expensive at I think over $30. for a 15ml bottle, but you only use literally a drop or two, so it will last a long time. It has helped with my anxiety when competing or when I know my horse is going to need me to be confident for him. |

I use DoTerra and I had sticker shock at first, but soon realized that the bottles will last a very long time. You only use a few drops at a time and some of the blends are to be diluted in coconut or some other oil (I use olive oil) so they really stretch out. |

That is so true!
And I can say for us, since o got really serious to using the oils I have not had to fill a prescription. When we started my daughter had such a bad UTI the antibotics were not working, we were going to have to do IV medicine. She had constant infections amd never went more than a couple weeks not on meds.
I researched the oils A LOT tried some on my self, used them on my pets and I was very confident in my decision to use them on my daughter. We are 3 months antibotics free! Our medicine is all out of pocket, and she had so much resistance built up meds were very expensive. And her natural good bacteria and immunity was wrecked from so much meds. We were at a point where modern medicine was completely failing us and had nothing to lose. We still have dr. but now have a valablue tool in our corner.
Im sure most everybody thinks im crazy and sure its hocuspocus but im amazed at our results. I just wanted share. No sales pitch or anything just very happy and wanted to share |

      Location: Big Sky Country | My horse (and my friend's, blown up, making a coming back barrel horse) Loves Doterra Serenity oil. It helps calm me down too. You need to be careful putting on their nose because if they don't like the smell and you put it on the nose they can not get away from the smell. I let them just smell out of the bottle and put a drop on each side of the poll. Was at a race and my friend's horse was getting very anxious and she was talking about just trotting through the pattern in the race. ( this is the blown up horse that has been off for 3 years). I whipped out my bottle of Serenity and let her horse smell it. Next thing you know she is standing there with the reins dropped on her neck and totally relaxed. Walked in the arena and walked out. I am a Wellness Advocate for Doterra if any one would like more info Iwould be happy to help. Please be careful of just buying ANY Essential oils. Even though the stuff at walmart might say 100% Lavender oil it only has to have ( I think 10% lavender and the rest could be carrier oil. ) Just do your homework. There are also a lot of Facebook pages about essential oils and horses. Amazing how well they work. Also can help with wounds, skin conditions, colic and just about everything! Love my Doterra oils. They are 3rd party tested to be Certified PureTheraputic Grade.     |

    Location: Somewhere around here | After I saw this post earlier in the week I got really curious about it and I actually went to a herb and natural medicine shop in town, not too sure if they even would have pure lavender extract bottles but thankfully they did and they even had two! I was a little surprised at the price but better priced than some of the other bottles I was looking at online for the same small size. Anyway, I tried it on my horse just doing a trail ride. He hasn't been ridden for a few weeks and always seemed to get a little antsy going home. He was great!! He still had a few spots where his calm walk picked up but nothing like before and it was much easier to get through his head to just relax and walk. Can't wait to try this at a barrel race!!
I'm a believer!!  |

I have found with the essential oils there are many different oils that will work for the same thing but since each person and animal is different, you need to experiment to find which oil works best for you for the problem you are trying to address. |

How do you use the frankincense for allergies/breathing issues? Very interested in trying this versus advair!
I mix frankincense and a carrier oil and rub it on my chest and if I have some copaiba oil add that too. Ijake only been doing this for 3 months so I may have to use Advair this winter since cold air with wind really sets me off. For my allergies I use peppermint/basil blend and run it over my sinuses bridge of my nose and right under my nose. For my son and husband's allergies I use a lavender/lemon/peppermint blend and rub it on their sinuses forehead and back of their neck. They sneeze and have runny noses. I get stuffy sinuses |

What oil did you use for your daughter's uti? Thanks for your share. That's how we all learn. I was in the same boat:-/
What we started with was AM theives of feet purification over bladder and a drink of ningxa red with a drop of lemon. In the PM we did frankensence on feet, purification over bladder. It was helping but she needed more help. My sponser suggested doing rain drop treatments but we decided to try Aroma Siez added to the retuine. As it is a blend with many of thebsamen oils as the raindrop in one bottle. I put this on at night on her spine concentrating on the lower part. We have successfully got rid of the infection and shes getting more and more control and strength. Im starting to lessen the oils now as we dont need to fight infection at the moment yay!
I am going to try Juniper as it can support nerve repair. And thats what started this all, her milen sheath got damaged.
We are also giving her young livings probiotic called life 5.
Asside from the UTI getting better shes also not sick ALL the time the constant antibiotics destroyed all bodies balance and every little cold she would get. Our house did NOT get the "back to school" sickness this year.
If you are any body wants more info about the oils or young living please message me here or add me on FB i really dont mind! Im so passionate and amazed by these little bottles i could talk about them all day! |

       Location: Bandera, TX | Della, I was a skeptic when I first began EO's. No longer. In fact, this week the men I work with are all about me bombing the place in EO's. One of the guys has a daughter that was born severe MR. Since they began the EO journey 3 years ago the changes for their family are beautiful. His wife has learned so much and has passed on to others that care for difficult children.
OP, Lavender is a great oil, in fact when I go anywhere I almost always have a small bottle in my pocket. Funny thing is I've seen it work better in mares than gledings. Like NTO noted the Ruta Va La which has Lavender in it is amazing on many hard cranked geldings. I want to add to NTO's comment on the book...for animals Dr. Shelton has the "bible" for oiling your horses. IMHO |

If I do fall asleep I can't stay asleep for more than a couple hours. The most sleep I get during the night is 3-4 hours. Some nights I don't sleep at all. Just like right now I've been laying in bed for 4 hours just as tired as can be but I can't go to sleep. I eventually give up and get on here or Facebook and watch tv until I fall asleep on the couch. I won't go to the doctor though. All he will do is fill me with sleeping pills and that just not something I want to do at my age. I'm 22 I don't want to depend on a pill the rest of my life.

Ruta Va La and Valerian throw in a bit of Lavender as well. Have you had you hormones checked? I was not surprised when I found mine all out of balance. I like pogressence plus from Young Living as well, it helps me with my sleep. I work an odd schedule so my body has no idea what to do. I have to have chemical/EO help or else I stay up for days. Given your age, Vetiver

How do you use it? I'm not familiar with using oils for anything other than when I make bath salts at Christmas.
I mix it 50:50 with a carrier oil like coconut oil and a at the same ratio add Copaiba Oil, then rub on my chest and throat and then put my hands up to my nose and breath the scent in for a few seconds. I have never needed to do this more than 2 or 3 times a day but I must add, though, the worst part of the year for me is just about to start, do I may have to do it more often. If I need to I will use both oils and inhaler. Peace and Calming has worked at night for my husband and me when we get insomnia. The brands I use are Young Living, and rocky Mountain Oils and I am going to try Heritage oils soon.

The most sleep I get during the night is 3-4 hours. Some nights I don't sleep at all. Just like right now I've been laying in bed for 4 hours just as tired as can be but I can't go to sleep. I eventually give up and get on here or Facebook and watch tv until I fall asleep on the couch. I won't go to the doctor though. All he will do is fill me with sleeping pills and that just not something I want to do at my age. I'm 22 I don't want to depend on a pill the rest of my life.
You could try a drop of frankensence right on the base of your skull (like where your neck meets your head right under your hair line)
This so far has worked the best for us.
There are a ton of different oils that can help with sleep just have to find thenpefrect one for you! |

Serenity and Lavendar work best for me.. I rub it on the bottom of my feet every night, then put a little on my pillow and also cup my hands to my nose and take a few deep breaths.. Difussing the oils will also help! |

I'm very new at this but I have found you will get many different answers and it's because the oils work differently on different people so you need to experiment and find what works for you.
Google...What essential oils work best to use for a good nights sleep? |

I use Young Living oils and of course like everyone else..I'm a distributor. I don't know anyone that uses oils that isn't. LOL
My statement was you can Google and find many answers on how to use the oils. |

| Thanks for starting this thread.... I plan to try the lavander on my friends horse the next time he gets excited while trail riding.... BUT better than that!! I couldn't sleep last night due to sinus drainage..... Woke up miserable... (not the better part) I pulled up the essential oil page to see if what I have in the cabinet would help me... YAY... I have eucalyptus and theives... BOTH will help with sinus issues.... For right now I'm feeling better and my throat is on the mend. YAY hope to all better tomorrow. |
