As a horse owner and herbalist for over 23 years I have witnessed the healing power that plants have on animals. Because herbal medicine is inclusive and sustainable it can be a wonderful compliment to traditional veterinary care and provides you with the skills to care for yourself and your horse from a powerful and natural approach. During this fun and educational course you will learn about equine anatomy and physiology, how to create herbal preparations for your horse, natural modalities that work to address common equine health concerns as well as simple and powerful interventions for first aid and natural disasters.

There are so many different natural supplements and products out there for horses, having a knowledgeable and experienced guide is a must!

Here is all the great stuff you will learn by attending this course:

• How to implement simple and effective natural approaches to help support common equine health concerns.
• Build your own herbal apothecary so that you can make herbs a regular part of your horse’s wellness plan.

WEEK 1: The Roots of Wellness

During this class we will explore the foundations of creating vibrant health for your equine partner through natural healing modalities.

You will learn how to create your own herbal preparations including teas, powders and liquid extracts. You will also learn about the key herbs we will be diving into during the overall course to create your very own equine herbal apothecary to support a variety of health concerns.

WEEK 2: Nourishing the Digestive System

The equine digestive system is complex, delicate and can be impacted negatively by the ways that most horses are kept.

During this week’s course you will learn about simple practices and herbal protocols to strengthen the digestive system and how to successfully work with common digestive complaints that many horse owners face. 

WEEK 3: Recovery and Rehabilitation

Horses are incredible athletes and can be prone to injuries.

Herbal medicine is a wonderful adjunct to traditional medicine when it comes to helping your horse recover from an injury.

This week’s course covers internal and external recipes and protocols to speed healing and keep your horse calm during the recovery process.

In addition we will cover herbal and flower essence support for wildfires and natural disasters.

Many of these recipes are excellent for humans as well!

Over the past 20 years as an herbalist and educator I have positively impacted the lives of thousands of people and animals.

Here are a few testimonials about my work!

"Participating in Jordan Stanton’s ‘Herbal Healing for Horses’ class was a wonderful treat for many reasons! Jordan is a fabulous, warm, knowledgeable teacher and a spectacular person.  She easily performed the challenging feat of keeping a group engaged, focused and sharing together during the four week two hour long Zoom class. Not only was a great way to connect with other like minded horse women, but Jordan’s knowledge of how to treat horses with herbs was truly helpful for how to care for my two horses. I also did a private session with her for specific guidance around my horses health which was incredibly insightful. I highly recommend her class, working with her and all that she offers!"

- Tara Coyote, Eponaquest certified teacher (Equine Facilitated Learning)

“Before I met Jordan my young mare was having severe cycles every 21 days. She would give herself urine scalding, walk with her head down and a dullness to her demeanor. Thanks to Jordan and her special care and herbal blend my mare now has less side effects of her cycle. No more urine scalding, and she is much more comfortable and happy! Thank you Jordan for your care. Your herbal blend was a savior.”- Dawn B. Veterinary Hospital Manager -  Novato, CA

“My horse Chuck has been on a blend of herbs that Jordan created for about a year. Jordan has been great from the very first phone consultation. She knew just what he needed and got it put together in a timely fashion. Chuck is normally very sensitive when saddling and without the herbs he bites the air and shows discomfort. When he is on his herbal blend he is much happier and quieter while being saddled. He can even be grumpy with his neighbors in his pen but on the herbs he seems much more content. Jordan has done a great job and I appreciate all she has done for Chuck and I.” - Shannon L. SL Horsemanship - Petaluma, CA

"Jordan was one of my very first herbal teachers. Her passion, knowledge and grounded, loving, inspired approach introduced me to what has become a lifelong love for the many ways plants, people and animals support each other. Every time I use alfalfa for anything, be it on my farm or in my tea, I remember hearing Jordan say “if this can fuel a racehorse, imagine what it can do for you!“ - Michelle Plata
