Horse Oil Compass

Horse Oil Compass 🐴🌿

Essential oils for horses – simple, safe & practical

Are you curious about using essential oils with your horse, but not really sure where to start?

Which oils can I use?
How do I offer an oil to my horse?
How do I use them safely?
And how can I actually incorporate them into everyday life at the yard?

That’s exactly why I created the Horse Oil Compass.

A FREE 7-day WhatsApp course for horse owners who would like to explore natural ways of supporting their horses.

🐴 Next course starts: 12 October
🌿 FREE
📱 7 days, directly via WhatsApp

Natural support doesn’t have to be complicated

Perhaps you’ve already heard people talking about essential oils.

Maybe you’ve even got a bottle or two sitting at home.

But when it comes to actually using them with your horse, suddenly there are lots of questions.

Can I just use this with my horse?
How much should I use?
Should I let my horse choose?
How do I know whether my horse even likes an oil?

That’s where I want to help.

During the Horse Oil Compass, we’ll go through the basics together, one step at a time.

No complicated jargon.
No miracle claims.
And you certainly don’t need any previous training or experience.

Just practical information, real experiences and plenty of opportunity to observe your own horse.

What we’ll explore during the 7 days 🐴

🌿 The basics

What actually are essential oils? What should we be looking for when it comes to quality and using them around horses?

👃 Letting your horse have a say

I’ll show you how I offer an oil to my horses and why observing their response is such an important part of the process for me.

🐴 Safe & practical use

Smelling, topical application, dilution – we’ll look at different ways oils can be used and, importantly, what you need to think about before using them.

🧴 My natural stable toolkit

Which oils do I like having at the yard and why? I’ll show you some of my personal basics.

🌿 Skin, coat & hooves

We’ll talk about some of those very normal horse-owner situations and explore ways we can naturally support our horses as part of their everyday care.

🧘 Calm & balance

We’ll also look at how scent, routine and simply slowing things down can become part of creating a calm environment for our horses.

🎥 Real examples from my own yard

This isn’t about perfect textbook horses.

I’ll share videos, observations and experiences from everyday life with our own horses.

💬 And, of course, your questions

There’ll be plenty of opportunity during the seven days to ask questions and share what you’re noticing with your own horse.

You don’t need to be an expert

You don’t need an aromatherapy qualification.

You don’t need previous experience.

And you definitely don’t need a cupboard full of essential oils. 😉

The Horse Oil Compass is simply designed to give you an easy introduction.

By the end of the seven days, I don’t expect you to know everything there is to know about essential oils.

But I do want you to have a better understanding of what they are, how they can be offered to your horse safely and whether this is something you’d like to explore further with your own horse.

[YES, I’D LIKE TO JOIN]

Hi, I’m Rachel 👋🐴

I’m originally from the UK, but horses and Austria have been home for many years now.

Together with my husband, I run a riding school and livery yard here in Styria, so horses aren’t something I occasionally fit into my life.

They are my everyday life.

And I’m naturally a bit of an experimenter.

I like learning.

I like asking questions.

And when I discover something interesting, I want to see what actually happens when I try it with real horses.

That’s very much how my journey with essential oils began too.

I didn’t want to simply be told that something worked.

I wanted to observe.

Try things.

Document what happened.

Ask questions.

And, most importantly, pay attention to what the horses themselves were telling me.

That’s the idea behind the Horse Oil Compass.

I want to share what I’ve learnt and show you how essential oils have become one small part of everyday life with our horses.

Not as a miracle solution.

But as another way of consciously and naturally supporting the horses in our care.

Real horses. Honest experiences.

No miracles. Just support. 🌿

There’s something that’s really important to me.

The Horse Oil Compass is not a replacement for your vet, veterinary diagnosis or necessary medical treatment.

If one of my horses is ill, in pain or something simply doesn’t seem right, getting appropriate professional help comes first.

I see essential oils as one possible way of supporting our horses alongside good everyday care.

So you won’t find miracle cures or incredible promises here.

What you will find is:

Observe. Learn. Document.

And sometimes simply being surprised by how much our horses tell us when we start paying a little more attention. 🐴

Is the Horse Oil Compass for you?

You’ll probably enjoy the course if you…

🐴 want to be more conscious about how you support your horse,

🌿 are curious about essential oils but don’t know where to begin,

👃 would like to learn how to offer oils to your horse,

🧴 want practical ideas that you can actually use at the yard,

💚 value a horse-friendly, thoughtful approach,

or you’re simply thinking:

“This sounds interesting. I’d like to know more.”

Then you’re very welcome to join us.

How does it work?

It’s really simple.

1. Sign up for free.

2. Join the WhatsApp group.

3. For seven days, you’ll receive a small piece of content from me each day.

That might be a short video, a message, a photo, a practical example or something I’d like you to observe with your own horse.

You can go through everything at your own pace.

And, of course, you can ask questions along the way.

Still not sure?

Come and have a look anyway. 😉

There’s no obligation to buy anything afterwards.

Use the seven days to learn, ask questions and decide for yourself whether essential oils are something you’d like to explore further with your horse.

Because ultimately this isn’t about using as many products as possible.

It’s about paying more attention to the horse in front of us.

🐴 Real horses.
🌿 Honest experiences.
🔎 Observe. Learn. Document.

I look forward to meeting you and your horse!
