A topic I am very passionate about is using essential oils with our pets! The animals in our care depend on us for everything: food and water, grooming and general health. That's why there's nothing worse than seeing them in pain. Just as with any emergency, it's important to stay calm, keep panic to a minimum and have a response plan. This can make all the difference. Animals sense your emotions, often through smell, and the best way to keep them calm is to be calm yourself.

The key to using essential oils with pets is to always go very slowly - don't rush and don't push. Your animal will respond better to essential oils if they are comfortable with you and the odours. Additionally, you don't want to create any negative experiences or promote any adverse reactions. Animals are very sensitive to odours and may find a new smell too intense. (Horses choose their own oils!)

Pets have lots of "emotional" triggers, as they pick up their owners stress and emotional state - so keep calm yourself with Stress Away and/or Peace & Calming blends!

Your pets are deeply affected by your moods and your emotional well-being, and they deserve to get the same benefits from genuine essential oils - just like you do!

I often use the same blends for animals that I do for myself. Oils like Trauma Life, Thieves, Stress Away, Peace & Calming and Valor are a few of my favourites; but I use lots more!

Recently the pet blends produced by Young Living have been available in Europe, and they are amazing!

Suzie Webb - Wellness

Welcome to Suzie Webb Wellness.

Hi, I'm Suzie Webb and I've been in the holistic and well being industry for over 36 years - I'm 70 years young! I love learning - I have an unquenchable thirst for learning, and I also love reading, drinking tea, cats, walking, making my own products, and going to the cinema - you can't beat the big screen.

At the end of this story you can read how I started my FAB community - Freedom after Bereavement.

For years I struggled with my weight, my skin and joint pain (from running half marathons!).

I remember feeling embarrassed throughout much of my professional career as a nutrition consultant and clinical aromatherapist at being overweight with poor skin - I felt a fraud! Especially if I was hobbling on and off a stage because of aching knees! I looked and felt 70 when I was only 40!

All those years learning how the body worked and eating a balanced diet and learning the importance of hydration, exercise and relaxation - my weight would not go down and my skin would not improve and my joints still ached - I tried every new diet that came out and every new cream on the market but none worked for me. Or if they did it was short term: I'd lose the weight but it would return, my skin improved but only for a while. I was reluctant to take pharmaceuticals for my aches and pains connecting to my running but couldn't find a natural solution that worked for me.

I wasn't happy with how I looked and dreaded the public speaking appearances which was part of my job so I went into writing and had books published on diet and nutrition and make-up instead - working from home where no one could see me!

One day a friend introduced me to a totally new lifestyle concept I'd never considered before. I was sceptical at first as but I trusted my friend and said I would give it a go. My new lifestyle made me feel amazing. I thought it was coincidence at first - but I had more focus on my work, more energy, my skin was the best it had been for years, my weight stabilised and I was pain free. I was over the moon and brimming with confidence! At last! That was 14 years ago when I was 57. I'm 71 now and the best shape I've ever been.

So now I’m on a mission to empower women – with the knowledge I’ve worked so hard to get myself.

I am not the only person to have lost someone we loved. I was angry when my dad died. Not angry because he'd passed, but angry at people telling me how I should be feeling and telling where I should be on the 7 stages of grieving and telling me it was time to 'move on'. I was angry again when my nephew died in his twenties in a road traffic accident for the same reasons. I was less 'angry' when my husband died as my work involves emotional release, but my intense grief was indescribable.

Coping with the loss of someone or something you love is one of life's biggest challenges. My husband Guy died in December 2018 - we had only been married 12 weeks. Most of the support groups I joined didn't lift me or fulfil my needs. But I found something that really helped me and because of that I started my own group which is called FAB - Freedom after Bereavement. The group is over on my Facebook page - here is the link - and I run regular sessions - both privately and group - using essential oils. Using this technique gave me the strength not to 'move on' but to 'move forward' - with all those I loved still at my side supporting me.

Come and join me and learn how you can take back control of your health with the knowledge and information I share in my exclusive communities.
