New Zealand International Spirit Horse Festival
I will be appearing at the Spirit Horse Festival for the second year in a row at the end of March 2020.
On the Thursday before the festival I’m giving a workshop on the use of essential oils for horses:

[NUMBERS LIMITED TO 10 PARTICIPANTS]
In this workshop participants learn the basics of essential oil use with horses, and the oils that horses usually prefer. From that, we learn how to use the sense of wellbeing the oils produce in the horses, to work with them in a deep state of relaxation.
Over the course of 40 years working with rescue horses, both on an individual basis and for several Australian charities, Candida has found many ways to help horses move through trauma. “Horses speak a physical language not a verbal one,” she says. “It’s been my experience that for many of them traumatic or abusive experiences become locked in their cellular memory. Oils are a non-invasive tool which can be used to help unlock trauma and start a horse back on the road to healing and mental health. In fact, ALL horses love oils – but for those with any degree of trauma, the obvious effect of oils on their nervous system can be dramatically helpful.
”This ‘relaxing’ workshop will also help horse owners, or carers, identifying mirroring patterns in themselves, and promote the use of gentle acupressure in combination with the oils to begin (or continue) the journey to ‘trust’. A small starter kit of oils will be provided as part of the workshop. “A beautiful side-effect of the workshop is that as participants, we all get to try and enjoy the oils as well,” says Candida. “I can guarantee that anyone doing this workshop will feel amazing at the end of it, and will see a real difference in the lightness of being of the horses.”
Cost: $120 NZD - includes one starter oil kit per participant
I’m also giving two sessions at the Festival, one on
