I’m always fascinated by the process of watching horses choose their own essential oils. It’s a quiet, intuitive ritual that tells you so much about what they need in the moment. I use doTERRA oils exclusively because I trust their purity and the care taken in their sourcing.

In the wild, horses naturally seek out different plants throughout the seasons. These plants—often potent and aromatic—are thought to address both physiological and psychological needs. By offering essential oils, we give domesticated horses a way to tap into that same instinct.

I typically carry six different oils with me to each session. At the start, I let the horse explore the options. Sometimes they’ll choose more than one; other times, they’re not interested at all. Certain oils even seem to be seasonal favorites—Cypress and Lavender often make the shortlist during particular times of the year.

Horses experience smell in a very different way than we do. They must smell through each nostril, and unlike humans, their olfactory bulbs don’t cross over. This means they process scents uniquely, and the subtle differences matter to them.

When offering oils, I look for three possible responses:

1. No – The horse turns away after sniffing, clearly declining.

2. Neutral – The horse accepts the scent but shows no strong reaction. It’s fine to use, but not essential for them at that moment.

3. Yes – The horse tries to take the bottle right from your hand. Hold on tight—this is their way of saying, “I need this!”

In today’s session, Cloud demonstrated all three responses perfectly. The last oil he tried earned an emphatic “yes!”—Wild Orange, one of his absolute favorites.

It’s moments like this that remind me how deeply intuitive and self-aware horses are. All we have to do is offer the choice and pay attention to their answer.

Enjoy!

It not only fills my heart but also lets me know that the work I’m doing with your horse is truly supporting their healing and well-being.

I recently received a beautiful message from a client who owns a lovely Thoroughbred gelding named Taz. Over a year ago, Taz suffered a mysterious injury while out in the field. Although the exact cause of the injury was never determined, he was clearly not himself—unable to jump and remaining very stiff, especially struggling with his right lead. He had received acupuncture and chiropractic adjustments, which offered some relief, but something was still missing.

A few months ago, I began working with Taz. I immediately noticed he was extremely restricted through his lumbar region and right shoulder. He was so sensitive that he would fidget when I worked in those areas. After just one session, we saw improvement—and he continued to progress from there. His sensitivity subsided, and he now enjoys full sessions. Best of all, he's back to jumping and is feeling better than ever.

This morning, I received the following update from his owner:

“𝙏𝙖𝙯 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙛𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙘 𝙞𝙣 𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙡𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙤𝙣 𝙏𝙝𝙪𝙧𝙨𝙙𝙖𝙮! 𝙃𝙚 𝙪𝙨𝙪𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙝𝙖𝙨 𝙨𝙤𝙢𝙚 𝙩𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙗𝙡𝙚 𝙞𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙞𝙣𝙙𝙤𝙤𝙧 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙩𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙣𝙨, 𝙗𝙪𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙚 𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙖𝙢𝙖𝙯𝙞𝙣𝙜! 𝙃𝙞𝙨 𝙡𝙚𝙛𝙩 𝙨𝙞𝙙𝙚 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙨𝙤 𝙢𝙪𝙘𝙝 𝙨𝙤𝙛𝙩𝙚𝙧. 𝙃𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙙𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙜𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩! 𝙄 𝙬𝙞𝙨𝙝 𝙄 𝙝𝙖𝙙 𝙫𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙤𝙨—𝙝𝙚’𝙨 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙨𝙤 𝙢𝙪𝙘𝙝 𝙗𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙘𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙚𝙙 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙝𝙞𝙢. 𝙏𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙠 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙨𝙤 𝙢𝙪𝙘𝙝!”

Messages like this mean everything to me. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your horse’s healing journey. 💛

Very interesting read about kissing spine!

I had a deeply rejuvenating myofascial release session today—just for me! This powerful modality never ceases to amaze me. It gently restores range of motion by releasing fascial restrictions, allowing the body to move with greater freedom and ease.

Now it’s time to hydrate and rest up, because tomorrow is a full day of working with horses 🐴. I’ll be bringing these same techniques to help them feel balanced, comfortable, and at their best.

I care for myself so I can care for them—with presence, energy, and heart.

It's Saturday!
I hope you're all having a wonderful weekend so far. I'm still catching up after my trip, so my plans include getting some movement in (a good hike!), tackling some house cleaning (ugh… but satisfying), running a few errands, and then wrapping up the day by celebrating my sweet sister’s birthday with the family.

What are your weekend plans?

Wishing you an amazing one!

♥️ Tamara
