August 9th 2009 11:29
As the days get longer, hormones and body clocks in all species start to respond to more daylight. This time of year can be distracting and in this present economic climate our minds need to be on work or study.
Chaste tree berry is a herb that can assist with seasonal delimas bodies face. Though, do not self-prescribe in combination with a contraceptive or hormone replacement, IVF program, pregnancy, or if using hormone injections to bring on cycles in an animals for breeding. It is a herb to use temporarily to reduce an overactive libido which is often necessary in younger animals when you need them to follow a task or introduce a new training level.
Lack of sleep or difficulty in broken sleep patterns triggered by the change in seasons may respond to chaste tree as it can increase melatonin secretion and improve sleep. Once sleep patterns are reestablished, then herbs such as gingko and bilberry can feed the brain and help with focusing on tasks.
Nature steps forward with a beautiful synchronicity. Many reproductive herbs also serve the nervous system. Herbal blends packaged for a mare's attitude or for a human needing to calm the nervous system after a stressful day of study, can be interchanged. Preparing a horse for their first novice dressage test is no different to assisting a teenager at home to study for their trial exams.
Calming the nervous system allows the rest of the body to operate undisturbed, so the brain can then focus and perform. To guide the mind to neutral after intense work consider a combination from chamomile, spearmint, bilberry (blueberry), passionflower, lime flowers, lemon balm, orange blossom, rosehips, vervain, or lemon verbena so the mind can revitalise and be fresh for the next challenge To highlight a reproductive slant, simply blend your choice with chaste tree berry. Discussion with your natural health care provider will identify the herbs that suit your own needs.
Most of the herbs discussed have a broad dose range, start on a mid range dose, and then increase or decrease once the body begins to utilise the herb. Each body will uptake in a unique way and individual doses vary. As a guide: a horse the herbs discussed singulary range from one to two tablespoons daily or in combination don't exceed more than one cup of dried herbs a day. For humans, the dose range is one to four grams, and wise not to exceed more than 5 grams per dose no more than three doses a day.
In competition, the use of calming herbs is deemed unsportsmanlike and may test as prohibited substances, so they are not to be relied upon if you do compete, use responsibly to overcome training issues.
