Horses, like dolphins, have unique inherent abilities to reflect us back to ourselves accurately and honestly. Working with these large gentle souls is a fun and revealing way to acquire new insights into our personalities and relationships, both personal and professional. It is a great way to study our problem-solving abilities, and to see ourselves differently through the eyes of a horse. Horses reflect back to us what we give out, but in a loving, non-threatening way. They offer assistance on all levels, from children to senior citizens, and for all ranges of experience from none to advanced riders and trainers. Each individual will start at their own personal comfort level with a horse and can expand their horizons at their own pace. For this work, riding is not specifically included. However, if you have your own horse and would like to explore new ways of relating with each other, riding can be included as an end result of the process. Horses are universal symbols for one riding on one's own pathway through life. This work is great for children with emotional and/or learning difficulties, as horses always have unending patience. It can also offer a wonderful learning opportunity for corporate workers who are looking for effective leadership qualities.
