Horse therapy is effective in processing emotions and to form bonds of re-allowing trust and risk in our lives. If you've been depressed, anxious, lost or unsettled. This may be the therapy for you. You will be working with gentle horses on the ground, which means no riding.
Equine therapy is an easy way to get in touch with thoughts and feelings. Many people struggle with depression, loneliness and trauma. Re-learning ways to cope and soothe ourselves might be reaching out to a big warm fuzzy animal with an amazing big heart and who is non-judgmental. They don't care about the past, they live in the present and forward motion. Horses are not into blame, denial or drama. They want to enjoy you. And since their lives are as domesticated caged animals they want to find fulfillment in their time with us as we do with them. Truly unconditional, horses thrive when they emotionally facilitate us to become better humans.
Horses are unique in how they sense our moods and emotions and react accordingly. Whether you are happy or sad, they will try and soothe you or stay quiet and hold sacred space for you. Horses have a similar dynamic of shutting down communication when they feel ignored, misunderstood and isolated. They are social animals and they may not speak English, but they are excellent communicators. You can hold fast to your old ways of communication or you can develop new ways.
Horses are large animals and can bring a variety of emotions out of you. One of them fear and another is being liked. This is their biggest fear too. You begin a process of bonding instead of escapism. They do not lie or manipulate, they do not judge or blame. They are healers.
