Insider Secrets to Using Essential Oils with Animals 3

I wrote this handbook to share my

experiences with you of how essential oils

have enriched the lives of my animal family

members, my animal clients and their people

and myself. I offer this guide to assist those of

you who are new to essential oils and for

those who have used essential oils for

yourselves and would like to learn about how

to use them with your pets.

I am inspired by my animal family members

as they encourage me to always continue

seeking the most loving and gentle methods of

supporting their physical and emotional

wellbeing. I thank God for the gift that He has

given us in these oils.

I hope you enjoy!

Discover The Joy Of Sharing Essential Oils With Animals

History of Essential Oils Evidence has been found of the essential oils having been utilized by the Egyptians and by

the Chinese at the same time. Essential oils have been incorporated for systemic support for

over 3000 years in India. (460-377 B.C.E.) Essential Oils are mentioned in the Bible 1100

times either directly or indirectly.

“But You have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox; I have been anointed with fresh oil.”

Psalm 92:10

What Is an Essential Oil? Essential oils can be distilled from many parts of a plant: stems, branches, fruits, flowers,

seeds, roots, bark, needles, and leaves. They are the life blood of the plant. Each essential

oil is composed of its own molecular structure. Chemical compounds of essential oils include

phenols, phenylpropanoids, monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes which serve different

purposes in the supporting the body.

How Do Essential Oils Work? Oils have intelligence and go where they are needed in the body. They seek

cells that resonate with a similar frequency. They listen for cells to resonate

like their own; that is how they know the location they are needed.

I frequently utilize essential oils for physical and emotional support. When

inhaled, essential oils interact with the olfactory nerves and the limbic system

which controls several systems of the body.

Essential oils serve you and your animal family members by providing:

• Support for the nervous system

• Helps with periodic upset/sour stomach

• A safe, toxin free way to clean your home

• Supports a healthy immune system

• Supports the lungs and sinuses

• Assists in healthy joint and cartilage function

• Helps promote emotional well-being

• and so much more!

My Top 3 Essential Oils Picks

These are my “go to” oils that I use with my animals, family members and clients:

FACTOID! Did you know? The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health studied 2,983 ingredients in our

products at home-and found 884 toxic ingredients. 146 they knew caused cancer tumors-but were still

allowed in the United States, even though they were banned in other countries around the world. Many of

these chemicals are allowed in common cleaning supplies in the United States-things under your cabinets

right now.

There is a low cost, all-around cleaning product that is safe for pets and family members of all ages

(see page 11). And now many veterinary hospitals are using essential oils for cleaning and more too!1

1 Sarah Harnisch, Gameplan: The Complete Guide to go from Starter Kit to Silver (Sarah Harnish:2016)

Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia)

•Most versatile of all essential oils, no home Has a sweet, floral aroma that is soothing and refreshing. Lavender’s aroma is great for relaxing such as for those stressful visits to the veterinarian. Diffuse to create a calming and comforting environment. Because it is the most versatile of all essential oils, no home should be without it.

Valor®

•Valor® One of favorite essential oils to support pets during stressful situations, such as a visit to the vet. Woodsy, positive scent comes from a blend of Black Spruce, Blue Tansy, and Frankincense. Valor is great for massages, in addition to other topical and aromatic uses.

Animal Scents® Ointment

The Safety Of Using Essential Oils With Animals

There has been some confusion and controversy surrounding the use of essential oils with animals.

Unfortunately, much of this concern has come about from the use of inferior essential oils. Young Living

Essential Oils are the only essential oils that I will use for myself and with my animals. This is because of the

thoroughness that has gone into the distillation process of these essential oils. You can find more information

about the 5-step Seed to Seal® process http://seedtoseal.com/en/seedtoseal.

In addition, it is important to dilute the oils properly when working with animals. I have provided some dilution

amounts at the end of this resource.

Cautionary Tales: Using Essential Oils with Cats

Particular attention has involved the use of essential oils with cats. This

concern has arisen because cats have special considerations since they

lack a liver enzyme called glucuronyl transferase that humans possess.

Essential oils are metabolized by the liver. The argument has been that

since cats lack this enzyme they are not able to metabolize essential oils.

Essential Oils Can Help Support Positive Relationships However, there is plenty of information available that supports the use of essential oils and cats. I have

worked directly with holistic veterinarians who support the use of essential oils with animals (including cats).

Tea Tree Oil (Melaluca Alternifolia) and Cats What I have found is that when concern about the use of essential

oils, this is the oil that is often brought up. Tea tree oils contain

phenolics to which cats have a special sensitivity. While

veterinarians have used tea tree oils with cats, there are

alternatives. This oil has been used by veterinarians, so if you are

interested please consult with a veterinarian who is experienced

in the use of this oil with animals.

Using Essential Oils With Animals

Dr. Jean Valnet studied and had a good part in bringing the use of essential oils to the public. Taught that

essential oils can reach any part of the body quickly because their molecules are so small they can travel

transdermally. There are three schools of aromatherapy. Originally applied to people they are now also

used with animals.

1. English model: Small drop of oil in vegetable oil. Used for stress reduction via massage

2. French model: Neat and or ingestion. Essential oil is frequently added to agave nectar, honey, a

small amount of bread.

3. German model: Focuses on the inhalation of essential oils - true aromatherapy.

I have provided methods of application for animals specifically in the “May Use as Follows” section of this

guide.

Massaging Meesha

Essential Oils Enhance the Massage Experience! There are often times when targeting a certain area

of the body for support that essential oils are

applied to specific locations. For example, for relief

of occasional mild head tension, may place essential

oils at the base of the head, on the temples or sinuses.

Another example is The Aroma Harmony Technique

(discussed more below) which involves oils being

placed on the Vita Flex points (feet for people but

paws are considered not an option for most animals

since they would not sit still for that) and spine in a

certain sequence. There is also the auricular

technique (spinal column and occipital ridge to

provide support to the nervous system). Diffusing

essential oils is an excellent method of providing periodic mood, sinus, lung, stress, and sleep support.

I also apply essential oils to chakra’s (see below) of an animal based upon my intuitive sense as well as

learned knowledge about the connection between chakras and emotional and physical wellbeing. Often,

I am drawn to apply oils to the heart area, between the shoulders, the brain stem, or the base of the spine.

If you have any energy work experience this is an appropriate time to combine these techniques with

essential oils.

Potential Methods of Using Essential Oils with Animals

How to Use Carrier Oils with Essential Oils

Petting Applications

This method involves diluting the oils by rubbing them into the palm of your hand. This can be done either

straight or with an organic diluting oil. This is followed by swirling the oils in your hand.

Varying amounts of the oils depending upon the needs and size of the animal are applied petted onto the

animal, i.e. a smaller animal, such as a rabbit, would receive almost dried oils from the hand. It is not actually

necessary to separate the fur to apply the oil. The oils will be absorbed via the hair follicles.

Often, I will pet the essential oils onto the animals where I am intuitively guided. This might include the base

of the skull/neck area for periodic calming, stomach for brief digestive support, or paws.

Please only apply to paws if you are sure that your home and any areas the animal walks on are free of

toxins (includes chemical household cleaners, see Thieves for non-toxic cleaning). Do not apply to open wound.

Always take into consideration the size of the animal.

Essential oils are often diluted in V6 Enhanced Vegetable Oil

Complex. If not available, organic olive oil or coconut oil

may be used.

2 drops of essential oil in one teaspoon–one tablespoon of

V6 carrier oil.

For smaller animals like cats and small dogs, use 1-2 drops. Be sure to dilute 80–90% (e.g., for every 1 drop of oil, use 4–

5 drops of a diluting agent, such as V-6™ Vegetable Oil

Complex.

For larger animals, like large dogs, start with 3–5 drops.

Unless otherwise indicated on the product label, dilution is

unnecessary.

For very large animals, like horses and cattle, start with 10

drops. Unless otherwise indicated on the product label,

dilution is unnecessary.

Humans – most oils can be applied “neat” or without dilution although there are certain “hot” oils that may require more dilution. For more about the safe use of

essential oils please read: www.youngliving.com

Page 17: Insider Secrets to Using Essential Oils with Animals

Insider Secrets to Using Essential Oils with Animals 17

Water Diffusion • Generally, 1-4 drops of essential oil are added to an essential oils diffuser. Can be used for sleep

or daytime.

• Aroma Harmony Technique combines the art of aromatherapy with the techniques of Vita Flex and

massage in the application of essential oils to various areas of the body. This collection provides a

revolutionary means of bringing balance and harmony to the body - physically, mentally, and

emotionally.

• Drip diluted oils from 6 inches above the body from tail to base of neck. Dropping from 6 inches

above. Allows the oils to pass through and benefit the energy field of the animal.

Kitty Aroma Harmony Technique • 4 drops of each oil in a 1-ounce (30mL) bottle.

• Dilute by filling the remainder of the bottle with V-6 Enhanced Vegetable Oil to fill the bottle.

• Additional oils can be added (up to 3).

Canine Aroma Harmony Technique • Small Dogs (less than 20 lbs.): 2-3 drops of each undiluted oil.

• Medium Dogs (20-50 lbs.): 3-5 drops of each undiluted oil

• Large Dogs (over 50 lbs.): 6-8 drops of each undiluted oil

Important Tips for Using Essential Oils

I have found that intention is an important aspect of essential oils. As an intuitive, I can sense that focusing on

the purpose (either for your animals, yourself, or others) increases the benefits of the essential oils. I have

also experienced the combination of prayer with essential oils to be extremely valuable.

A study by Bruce Taninio found that frequencies of oils are affected by thoughts. Prayer raised the frequency

the highest up to 15 MHz compared to 12 MHz with positive thinking alone.

Frequently Asked Questions About Essential Oils

Since animals clean themselves with their tongues, are these oils safe for animals? Diluting the essential oils (see below) before applying them to an animal means that they will receive only a limited amount of the essential oils if they clean themselves. Ingesting the essential oils is ok as long you are using 100 percent therapeutic grade essential oils.

How exactly do the oils work for emotional support? Essential oils can be received by the cells of the body via skin, fur (hair follicles), inhalation or ingestion. Essential oils can cross the “Blood Brain Barrier.” They do so because upon inhalation through the back passages of the nose and go to the amygdala in the brain. The amygdala houses the limbic system. The limbic system is the location of all emotional experiences and cannot be communicated with through spoken or written language and responds only to smell. Therefore, this non-verbal part of the brain can be contacted via essential oils. Animals can receive the benefits of inhaling essential oils for emotional support using a diffuser, applying oils to the body, putting a few drops on a cotton ball near where an animal sleeps or putting a small amount on a collar.

Do essential oils take time to work? In my experience, this depends on the individual (animal or human). You may need to apply once or twice to notice an effect or it may take a few days, a week or even weeks. If an animal shows sensitivity (pawing at nose, rubbing face on the ground) after using an oil, I will decrease the amount of the oil or the length of time I diffuse an oil. You can further dilute an oil using for example, V6 carrier oil, if it appears to be too much. NOTE: do not dilute the oils with water as it will make it worse

What, if any, conflict is there in taking the oils along with supplements? Are there any potential hazards to using them? Always discuss with your veterinarian or your doctor when taking prescription medication or supplements. Most of the time essential oils can be utilized at the same time.

Why do I only use young living essential oils for my animal family and myself? I personally have utilized Young Living Essential oils for a variety of issues and for general support. Simply put, I use these oils because I have seen their positive effects and because I trust their purity. From the Young Living website:

Young Living is proud to set the standard for essential oil purity and authenticity by carefully monitoring the production of our oils through our unique Seed to Seal® process. From the time the seed is sourced, until the oil is sealed in the bottle, we apply the most rigorous quality controls possible to ensure that you are receiving essential oils exactly the way nature intended. http://seedtoseal.com/en/seedtoseal.

According to Dr. Herve Casabianca (Ph.D.), Chairman of the International Standards Organization (ISO) Committee on Essential Oil Standards (a European agency whose acronym is AFNOR), there is only one company in North America who regularly sends samples to the AFNOR laboratory in France for testing to be measured against the international standards for therapeutic quality, and that is Young Living, Inc. Center for Aromatherapy Research and Education

"Therefore, "says Dr. Casabianca, "Young Living oils are the only therapeutic grade oils, of which I am aware, produced and/or marketed by an American company."

The best option I have found is to enroll as a distributor. This is because you are receiving a discount

on the diffuser that you won’t be eligible for otherwise. You will also receive 24% wholesale

discount on Young Living products.

Ideal if you think you might purchase $50.00 or more of essential oils per year. You’re under no

obligation to keep up the $50.00 per year order. If you don’t, you will simply no longer be eligible

for the wholesale discount. You will have already met that with your premium starter kit purchase.

humans and their animal companions.

I am a professional animal communicator, Board Certified

One of my greatest passions is teaching others how to better
