Horses who may benefit from Cerato are those who come across as hesitant and often uncertain when in the presence of other horses. They are usually low down in the pecking order. They become scared when alone and appear unsettled and indecisive as though afraid to make a mistake. Young horses as well as foals who have been separated too early from their mothers, need the support provided by this flower most of all.
Bach Flower Cerato is often recommended for both horses and riders who may experience uncertainty, lack of confidence in decision-making, or a tendency to seek validation from others. Here's how it can be applied to both:
Indecisiveness: Horses that hesitate or seem uncertain when faced with obstacles or unfamiliar situations may benefit from Cerato. This remedy can help them trust their instincts and make decisions with more confidence.
Reluctance to Explore: Horses that are hesitant to explore new environments or obstacles may lack confidence in their own judgement. Cerato can support them in overcoming their fears and approaching new experiences with curiosity and confidence.
Lack of Assertiveness: Horses that are easily influenced by other horses or handlers and lack assertiveness in asserting their own preferences or needs can benefit from Cerato. This remedy can help them develop greater self-assurance and independence.
Decision-Making Challenges: Riders who struggle with making decisions, whether in training, competition, or horse care, may find Cerato helpful. This remedy can enhance their intuition and self-trust, allowing them to make decisions more confidently.
Seeking Validation: Riders who constantly seek validation or approval from others for their riding abilities or decisions may benefit from Cerato. This remedy can help them trust their own judgement and rely less on external validation.
Confidence Building: Riders who lack confidence in their riding skills or decision-making abilities can use Cerato to boost their self-assurance and belief in themselves as competent riders.
When using Bach Flower remedies such as Cerato for horses and riders, it's important to consult with a qualified practitioner to determine the appropriate dosage and administration method. These remedies are typically administered orally, either directly or by adding drops to the horse's or rider's water. Additionally, they are safe to use alongside other treatments and medications, offering support for emotional well-being and confidence building.
