Rescue Remedy?

[Wildforestpony18]

Well, i had a bad fall and i was wondering whether to use Resue Remedy(non alcholic flower remedy) as I lost my confidence show-jumping. Does anyone else use it? xx

Yes I have, its not a miracle cure but I think it helps by taking the sharpness off your nerves.
I recently returned to riding my horse after him being schooled and me taking lessons elsewhere to get my confidence back and I used some then, I was really chilled and calm on him which was much better than I anticipated.
I dunno whether it was the rescue remedy or me being much more confident now, but I have took it since when riding solo for the first time on him and again I felt it helped.

It certainly wont do you any harm anyway, and at about a fiver for a bottle, its not expensive to try x

Yep, it's great stuff! I use it at work before presentations etc and for stressy horsey moments too! It got me through my driving test too!

I used to use it for both myself and M's, it did seem to work.

Been using it for years for myself and the nags. Brilliant stuff.

Keep some in the trailer & always use a few squirts before jumping (XC & SJ) - it may be psychological but I feel less nervous before the start.

I used it before the dentist and whilst being initially sceptical of it, it did work for me! Was as happy as larry and so from then on was hooked.

You can get the lozenges which are brilliant; stick one in your mouth if you're at all stressy plus you can put one in your pocket for later!

Presumably it would work for horses as well ...??? But you'd have to use gallons I guess? Any natural "therapists" out there who can enlighten?
