Horse Healing
What makes Horse Healing so special?
Nature and animals, especially horses, have so much to give. When we orient ourselves to them properly and with intention, we can experience a peace and healing that is profound. The dynamics behind this are not fully understood, but some theorize it has something to do with the size and electromagnetic field of their heart.
The electromagnetic field of the horse's heart is 5 times greater than ours, making their sensitivity to energies around them more acute, thus picking up the energy we are putting out. For example, our emotions carry different energies. The horses will feel these energies and respond to them, showing us what we are feeling, even when we are unaware of this ourselves.
Interestingly, research shows that in horse healing sessions, their heart rate increases to a level similar to the client's and then slows down. This, in turn, makes the heart rate of the client slow down, which over time leads to a lower resting heart rate even outside of the session. When our heart and body connect to their energy, we feel relief, and a sense of well-being and our bodies begin to heal, inviting us to slow down and experience what's going on inside of us.
One of the greatest gifts that I have found in working with horses is that they can pierce through the busyness of one's mind and ego, and mirror back the true state of one's heart.
They can do this because they have this deep embodied contact with the present moment. When I work with them, we collaborate in this beautiful dance of mindfulness, surrender and reconnecting to their true selves and the Divine.
