nature’s love medicine
The science around the benefits of the oxytocin release that we get from being with and around animals is undisputed. You’ll often find Cate with her rescue horses, walking her dogs or nurturing the rabbits in her Bougie Bunnies programme.

The science of oxytocin
wellness is all about connection
Animals have always been part of my story. From dogs and cats curled at my feet, to horses in the fields, alpacas grazing, chickens scratching, rabbits, gerbils — you name it, I’ve loved and cared for it. Their presence has shaped not just my childhood, but my motherhood, too. They’ve taught me patience, compassion, and the quiet medicine of simply being still with another living soul.
A love affairAt LunaMère, this lifelong devotion is woven into every animal-assisted session. It isn’t about gimmicks or novelty. It’s about creating a sanctuary where the gentle rhythm of a rabbit’s breath, the softness of fur beneath your hand, or the watchful gaze of a creature at peace, helps your own nervous system find calm..
Therapy animalsScience tells us that being around animals reduces cortisol, lowers blood pressure, and increases oxytocin — the “bonding hormone” that nurtures connection and love. But beyond the data lies something even more powerful: the heart-deep reminder that we are not separate from nature, that joy and grounding can be found in the simplest of moments.
