She regularly shares lovely stories with us about using essential oils on animals \u2013 her horses, to be precise \u2013 and we\u2019d love to share these with you. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve published this guest blog by Joyce on how she uses the products. We hope this won\u2019t be the only blog of its kind \ud83d\ude09.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Essential oils and safety<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Generally speaking, the use of essential oils on animals is safe for dogs, horses and other large livestock. However, not every oil is suitable. That is why we have developed a range of scents especially for our four-legged friends, covering a variety of themes.<br>Please note regarding cats: it is not safe to use essential oils directly. You can, however, use a diffuser in a room where cats are present, provided the cat is able to walk away if the scent becomes too strong. Use <strong>never<\/strong> essential oil on a cat\u2019s coat. This is because cats\u2019 livers cannot break down the naturally occurring chemicals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is true, however, that the scent\u2019s frequency works through the bottle. By making use of this, you can safely use any scent frequency with your four-legged friend. It doesn\u2019t matter whether you choose the special pet range or a different frequency. For example, place the bottle under your dog\u2019s bed or put it in the stable with your horse. You can also use essential oils safely with cats in this way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Speciaal voor viervoeters, Bella&#8217;s Cure<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/en\/products\/fragrance-lines\/bellas-cure-for-animals\">Bella\u2019s Cure<\/a> consists of scent frequencies that can be used to provide animals with energetic support using 100% naturally pure oils. This fragrance range features themes such as&nbsp;<em>Confidence<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Trauma-Free<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Pet Relax<\/em>. These themes address the most common questions regarding problems in animals. The essential oils used are not harmful to animals. The scent frequencies are available exclusively as essential oils. Only the&nbsp;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/en\/product\/doggy-outdoor-bellas-cure\">Doggy Outdoor<\/a><\/em>&nbsp;It is available as a spray, ideal for walks in the countryside (for your dog, but you can use it on yourself too) or for use in the stable for horses bothered by flies and other insects.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Trauma-Free-en-Confidence-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"essential oil in animals\" class=\"wp-image-265421\" srcset=\"https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Trauma-Free-en-Confidence-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Trauma-Free-en-Confidence-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Trauma-Free-en-Confidence-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Trauma-Free-en-Confidence-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Trauma-Free-en-Confidence-1536x1536.png 1536w, https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Trauma-Free-en-Confidence.png 2048w, https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Trauma-Free-en-Confidence-350x350.png 350w, https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Trauma-Free-en-Confidence-600x600.png 600w, https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Trauma-Free-en-Confidence-100x100.png 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can pour the oil into a <a href=\"https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/en\/products\/fragrance-diffusers\/electric-diffusers\">diffuser<\/a> Drip it in, top it up with water and place it in the room where the animal is. The scent will then spread through the air. Animals have a larger and more sensitive energy field than humans, which means they pick up the vibration effortlessly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Energy healing for animals<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A lovely way to use essential oil is to rub a few drops onto your hands. Rub your hands together so that the oil is evenly distributed, then stroke the animal: start at the neck just behind the ears, move across the shoulder along the back (slightly to the side of the spine), towards the hindquarters and then down the back of the legs to the soles of the feet.<br>Are you working on a specific issue? If so, you can also apply the oil to the area where the trauma is located or where the corresponding meridian runs. This can help release the blockage and allow the energy to flow again. However, this should be carried out by a qualified practitioner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Light frequencies and animals<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another product that\u2019s great for use with animals is the <a href=\"https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/en\/products\/light-frequencies\">Light frequencies<\/a>. These are imbued with scent frequencies, crystals and codes, creating energetically charged water. Light frequencies operate at an energetic level and have an effect on both humans and animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For young or sensitive animals, you can simply place the bottle in the room; the vibrations work right through the glass. Sometimes that is enough on its own. You can enhance this by actually administering the remedy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For dogs, add a spray to their water bowl. This ensures it comes into direct contact with the mucous membrane and works quickly. For horses, you can spray the Light Frequency onto a piece of carrot or bread and feed it to them straight away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Crystals and animals<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Gezondheidshanger-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-265416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Gezondheidshanger-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Gezondheidshanger-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Gezondheidshanger-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Gezondheidshanger-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Gezondheidshanger-1536x1536.png 1536w, https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Gezondheidshanger.png 2048w, https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Gezondheidshanger-350x350.png 350w, https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Gezondheidshanger-600x600.png 600w, https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Dieren-blog-Gezondheidshanger-100x100.png 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As well as oils and remedies, we often recommend the use of crystals. The <a href=\"https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/en\/product\/good-vibes-only-de-gouden-driehoek\">Golden Triangle<\/a>, consisting of amethyst, rock crystal and rose quartz, can, for example, be placed in your pet\u2019s water bowl. This combination ensures an optimal flow of energy, which is transmitted through the water. The crystals bring peace, balance and relaxation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can also create a <a href=\"https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/en\/products\/jewellery\/health-pendants\">health pendant<\/a> attach it to the halter, harness, collar or in the stable, so that it is always within the animal\u2019s energy field. You can also place a remedy or oil blend in a <a href=\"https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/en\/products\/jewellery\/frequency-hanger\">frequency hanger<\/a> Attach it to the halter or the mane so that the animal is supported at all times.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>How to make the right choice<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Er zijn zoveel producten&#8230; hoe kies je nu de juiste? Je kunt altijd werken vanuit het energetisch veld. Voel in, en test met een <a href=\"https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/en\/products\/crystals\/pendulums\">pendulum<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/en\/products\/crystals\/biotensor\">biotensor<\/a>. Ask whether a particular oil is suitable for your pet. Sometimes you already have an intuitive sense of what\u2019s going on and can base your choice on that. Of course, we\u2019re happy to help you in the showroom, by email or over the phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>A real-life story<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My mini Shetland pony, Petra, came to live with us at The Happy Ranch at the end of 2024. Little was known about her, apart from the fact that she is 20 years old and had been living with her sister, Toos, for a long time.<br>Over time, I noticed that she didn\u2019t like it when I approached her from behind, for example to brush her tail or fasten her girth. She would turn away, snap or even try to kick. After our last move, this behaviour got worse, even though she seemed to be feeling better. You often see this: when animals feel safe, they dare to show their trauma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Using the biotensor, I arrived at the theme&nbsp;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/en\/product\/sexual-trauma\">Sexual trauma<\/a><\/em>&nbsp;from the <a href=\"https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/en\/products\/fragrance-lines\/existence\">Existence line<\/a> and the remedy&nbsp;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/degroenelinde.nl\/en\/product\/healing-remedie\">Healing<\/a><\/em>. I kept the bottle closed and sat down beside her, with one hand on her chest and the other on her hip.<br>The lovely thing about animals is that you can see the relief straight away. At first she looked at me in surprise, but soon she was standing by the fence, waiting, and whinnying as if she was ready. She started yawning as soon as I sat down next to her.<br>I gave her drops of the \u2026 twice a day&nbsp;<em>Healing<\/em>-remedy. I can now gently touch her hind legs, brush her tail and fasten her girth, without her panicking. The treatments have really helped her. She\u2019s much more at ease and has swapped biting for kisses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud835\ude7b\ud835\ude92\ud835\ude8e\ud835\ude8f\ud835\ude9c \ud835\ude79\ud835\ude98\ud835\udea2\ud835\ude8c\ud835\ude8e<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Onze collega Joyce heeft zelf maar liefst vier paarden en werkt, naast haar werk bij De Groene Linde, ook als paardencoach samen met haar kudde.
