WALNUT is used for changes in life.  For instance, a new job, new home, new city, ending of a relationship, children going off to college (empty nest).  It is also for the natural changes in our lives... teething, puberty, menopause, even when we are facing the end of our life.  These moments can be extremely stressful and remind us of past experiences that bring up negative emotions.  
 
The positive for utilizing WALNUT is that it works to break those ties to the past and assist in moving forward during the changes in our lives.  It may also help during the release of addictions by easing the anxiety that comes with the change.
 
WALNUT FOR DOGS, CATS, HORSES:
