  • Equine Therapy for Veterans

    HORSES ARE SOME OF THE MOST MAJESTIC AND MAGNIFICENT ANIMALS ON EARTH. LIKE DOGS, WORKING WITH AND AROUND HORSES CAN BE THERAPEUTIC IN NATURE. THE EMOTIONAL INTUITIVENESS AND CONNECTION REQUIRED TO WORK WITH HORSES PROVIDE SEVERAL EMOTIONAL BENEFITS AT THE SAME TIME. HORSES ARE A MIRROR, AND DIRECTLY RESPOND OR DONT RESPOND TO THE EMOTION AND ENERGY WE BRING TO THE INTERACTION.WORKING WITH HORSES WILL COMPEL HONEST CONVERSATIONS WITH OURSELVES AS MILITARY VETERANS. IT WILL REQUIRE POSITIVE ENERGY, AND PUTTING OUR OWN ANXIETIES, ANGER, AND OTHER STRUGGLES, IN CHECK. IT WILL REQUIRE A SENSE OF CALM, AND REQUIRE A QUIETNESS TO ELICIT A POSITIVE RESPONSE FROM OUR EQUINE FRIENDS AND COMPANIONS. OVER TIME, THIS PRACTICE CAN TEACH NEW BEHAVIOR AND NEW EMOTIONAL HABITS, AND GIVE A REAL OPPORTUNITY FOR HEALING.
