July 2010, Essential oil of Angelica Root
Tue, 29/06/2010 - 11:14The oil I chose to write about this month is Angelica root, a great oil for helping to control
the Damp Heat of summer. In Chinese medicine Damp Heat can lead to digestive disturbances and fungal problems such as wet excema or rain scald. Angelica root is one of my favorite essential oils, it has been used by healers since at least the time of the Great Plague of London, so every good witch should have a bottle!
Case study: July 2010 - Sweet itch
Tue, 15/06/2010 - 14:19This month the case study is on Imelena, a fifteen year old quarter horse/paint mare, who had suffered from itchy skin since she was three years old.
It took a full year and different combinations of oils, plus removing heating foods from her diet, but now Mel is out with the herd even at the height of summer’s flies, heat and humidity without itching at all.
Book: July 2010 - Galloping to Freedom
Tue, 15/06/2010 - 14:02This month I recommend Galloping to Freedom, by Magali Delgado and Frederic Pignon, a beautifully presented book that shares much of my basic philosophy on being with horses and is a great advocate for the intelligence and integrity of the horse.
