Anxiety, separation anxiety

Firstly thank you for spending time explaining this technique to me. It was much appreciated. Because I am always looking for ways to improve the lives of the Animals I deal with, and your Equine Breathing technique seemed simple and down to earth, I was happy to put up both your articles on the Horse website but I really did want to test it out for myself.   As I mentioned to you I was working on some health issues on 2 Stallions and at your suggestion, I thought I'd try the 1N method so downloaded your PDF notes, read them and off I went.

I tried very hard to follow each step and didn't do what you would call a 'full session' perhaps but I did manage a few minutes on both nostrils. The effect was stunning! The horse just literally dropped his head and went very dopey within minutes and last seen was hanging outside of his box, fast asleep, bottom lip drooping totally at peace with the world and it truly was great to see him like that. What had taken me some 35 minutes to do using Reiki on Saturday, the relaxation part, I achieved in under 5 minutes using 1N. I know they are two different things with different benefits, but the relaxation is so vital for healing to work whatever you choose to do.

Most of the Staff were watching and a couple of them showed interest in learning the technique which I believe can be used for so many of the problems they could run into. eg: when foals and mares are weaned; for horse and youngsters who do not like being boxed, shod etc. for Stallions who are getting a little above themselves; and medically. All I can see are benefits. The stresses these horses go through is hard to explain but by the very fact that they don't get too much time outside and have to cope with having mares paraded past them, you can perhaps imagine just a little how much this must bother them. Using this technique, properly, I am now convinced would be just wonderful for them. It was exciting from my point of view to be able to help in such a short time and with so little to think about. It is without doubt something I will constantly think about for future Consults. It is so simplistic but having had a night to think about it, am now even more excited and enthusiastic to do as much of the Equine Breathing Technique as I can and to teach it to others.

On a more personal note, I don't sleep well. I work very hard and find it difficult to switch off. But last night I sat and did the breathing exercises you described to me. I was in bed and asleep by 8.00pm! that is unheard of. So I aim to pursue the Breathing course you suggested and I will try to remember what you taught me and again, thank you for giving up your time.

Update from Samantha September 05

A pony stallion, quite a handful was dragging the trainer around the arena as she tried to get him to hold still so she could put on his roller to lunge him. I offered to help her and just thought I'd try the 1N again. Yet again, within a few minutes he had calmed down much the amazement of the handler who said she had never seen him so quiet and submissive. All this done with no force and it's so easy.  I can't see any reason why people just don't try it and see the results for themselves. I have yet to further this to getting the Breather, but what I have seen so far on these two horses and a few others, has just given very positive results without stressing out anyone or any animal. What more could you want? People are seeing the 1N and getting interested so I carry the little book with me and also the pages, I downloaded them off your site, so they can read exactly what it can do if the Breathing is used. 

It's like all things 'new' it seems too simple to be true, it just takes time for people to catch on.
